That is a thing of beauty

Chung, are you any good with lawn mowers?

Didn’t get to ride today, so thought I’ll do some maintenance on my bike! But it seems I’ve ran out of bikes to clean so thought I’d have a go at my new coffee machine instead 🙂 All machine deserves some TLC in my opinion 🙂 I know coffee & road cycling have a real & historic connections, but upon opening up the “grinding mechanism” for some deep cleaning, I was met with what look not unlike a rear wheel free-hub ratchet ........ the similarity is beyond doubt 🙂 Well, the fact that I had to use my Park-Tool 10mm socket to get the nut off & my Pedro long nose pliers felt as if I was working on one of my bikes 🙂 .......... sorry, I think I’ve got too much time on my hand 😕 Cheers

Martin, I’ll send you a text! Cheers

Only the finest Campag tractors for Chung

Very impressive Chung. Properly serviced hubs feel great.

If wet and horrible on Sunday I will be repeating Finlaystone Road aka Gunpowder from 0930 as part of my campaign to regain fitness for my glorious return to cx. Hard intervals. I will be riding to power rather like Chris Froome. Don't laugh. I will be there for about one hour. Coffee after in kilmacolm, leaving big wet patches on the seats. PM me if desperate enough to join.

Met Mike Ferguson on the track after I left Alan. We had a great blether. It is tremendous and truly heartening to see how much progress he is making, now out on the bike 3 times a week.
