XXX got a reaction from John C in New Calpe (Spain) thread
Been looking at flights my plan is to go to casa MacD going 6/11 costs are easy jet 100 out 56 return £156
Jet 2 same dates slightly earlier flight 120 out 50 return £170
Ryan Air Late flight out 55 return 65 £120
Ryanair Prestwick 5-12 is cheapest £71 out 29 back £100
other options are Prestwick out on the 5 th 71 Ej back on 11 71 £142 cost for bike increase if you fly with two different airlines so if your taking the bike Jet2 or Ej might be cheaper .
I plan to drive up to Calpe Saturday or Sunday or Monday rest of the time will ride in the Costa Calida and Orihuela Costa areas , company welcome

Bogs bunch rules amended for this week only - good bikes permitted as its guaranteed dry and eh ... some folks need a shakedown run before going to Spain
Remember if you are joining at Bishy hill you really ought to be in the big ring !!

As I am the nice guy I went back to help him we actually did get close to getting back on and if you’d just held back for another couple of minutes we would have bridged , but at least we didn’t take the short cut saw the four at Greenock , we just carried on round the coast it was actually good fun

it's far enough away in the calendar for me still to have delusions of actually wanting to do it when the time comes!

XXX reacted to thejanullrichdietplan in Super Saturday
cracking afternoon for Cedric today - i think it was couple of firsts plus also a third and probably a top 5 (maybe top 3). As for me nothing results wise but at least found it a bit easier than the last time i was racing so a bit of progress.

XXX reacted to chung in DONE! New Year, New Bike time - keeping it "real" though!
The good folks over at WeightWeenie insist I put one of these on the Arabesque:

Which would match, however my back side is not big enough, so have ordered a Brooks Cambium C13 instead:

Hopefully it’ll work for me!

Looks very similar to the track BB so if bearings are the same size spares won’t be an issue.
love the colour of your bike and the seat pin, are you going leather seat?
You can still get that frame it’s a bit dearer than the master , hoping Juergen will source a 54 master Art Deco sometime after May

Yes, Billy, everything comes apart, I’ve not used this before, it’s my first Campag square taper BB, but it looks very serviceable ......... like all Campag stuff.
I’ll take a picture of it when I get home, I’m in Dundee at the moment :-) .......... visiting the V&A design museum ........ & just came across an Endura Moviestar Skinsuit on display :-) ...... cutting edge design apparently!

Hi Darly
Saw the bikes but was knackered think the food poisoning/ Vommiting bug was still having an effect so just cruised home , thought I might have beaten the rain but no, it was nice to have a chat with PMcD though
