Busy, busy, busy. Not much time for thinking about bikes these last few days.
Computer problems, work problems and tonight the backbox of the exhaust fell off the car on the motorway transforming a normally burbly motor into a TVResque monster. Fortunately my hearing is now recovering.
There’s some nice kit in the latest tech update from Cyclingnews. The Morningstar tools are also tested in the latest issue of Dirtrag.
I’ve been saying it for a long time but here’s the latest doom and gloom.
