Paligap are to cease distribution of Kona Bikes and Kona will be doing it themselves direct from their Euro HQ. Will this make a difference? Yes – we’ll not be bothering with them any more.

Sad but true.

Yay! Huzzah! Yippee! Alfine 11 is here in stock right now!

Except there’s no shifters or fitting kits available yet.

Boo! Yikes! Ploppywee!

I like this, a lot. Let’s see 853, 400 quid, 120mm fork (CEn tested for upto 140mm), 44mm headtube so anything will fit, loads of clearance. Winner!

Ugly plate, but hidden by the chainset – bags of room!

Big but not too big.

Just in for a fellow is this shiny Cotic >X< . Looks good to me.

Come on people, you’ve got 10 days to take advantage of our 20th year celebratory sale!

Them boys from Boston are moving to New Hampshire, exciting yet saddening to hear a few members of the crew won’t be making the move.

I’ve put them on the site finally so now folk might actually believe we do them and maybe we can build a few for you. Let’s talk…

So I decided that I really ought to do something about being a big fat wassock and as it was the start of a new year, what better time to begin?
My plan, is at least 30 minutes of heart rate raising excersise every day. That’s got to be doable and doesn’t come with the constraint of riding every day, or running every day. So far I’ve done 35 minutes on the turbo, a 45 minute solo ride, about 90 minutes ride in the woods with friends and just got back from a 24 minute run (I’m allowing a little flexibility as long as the weekly average doesn’t drop below 210 minutes)

Started the year at 230 pounds – let’s see where, or if, I finish it…
