I can’t say I’m at all happy with the Tour of Britain organisers, after excelling themselves by channelling the 2019 edition right past my front door, they decided to spoil thing… Read More

The seasons might be a man-made abstract, but this Saturday definitely felt like we’d crossed some sharp divide and, as British Summer Time officially came to an end and we nudged int… Read More

The club run this week was planned by Richard of Flanders and included some serious hills. By the end I’d managed to clock up over 100 kilometres, with more than 1,200 metres of climbi… Read More

Another Saturday, another club ride, but I have to admit I just wasn’t feeling it. The legs felt tired and heavy right from the outset. Dropping down the hill and pushing out along the… Read More

After a lost weekend spent infiltrating Thing#1 into London, I was looking forward to getting back to the sanctuary and serenity of a club run, only to have my intentions cruelly dashed by S… Read More

Into a new year we stumble and it’s back to the Saturday routine following two consecutive Monday rides during the holidays. The first of these would put a cap on my 2021 efforts in tr… Read More

Well, looks like Mother Nature has a heart after all. After missing a ride out in the glorious weather a week ago, we got an almost exact replica of conditions this week and a rare, early op… Read More

Well, I guess we had to pay for the fine, fine weather last week. And we did. The altitudinous uplands of Whickham received more than a smattering of snow on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday a… Read More

Cold, but bright and mainly dry, it was another day when we could risk breaking out the summer bikes. At the meeting point, James III was wrestling impotently with his gloves as he suffer… Read More

The trick today was to get the layers about right as the morning was decidedly chilly, but there were hopes temperatures might nudge into double figures by the afternoon. G-Dawg had decreed… Read More

Ooph! What just happened? On Saturday I completed my longest ride of the year while still managing to get home half an hour before I usually would. Logic dictates then that I must have… Read More
Sur La Jante | The C… · 16:47 20 May 2022
Oops! … I did it again. I didn’t learn the lesson last week, so was enticed into the front group again this week, for an even faster run, (although, to be fair this route inv… Read More

So, for an idea of the weather, take last week’s, but add a little more cloud and then take last week’s wind and add a whole lot more. A pleasant enough day, but a bit blowy… Read More

2023, eh? A new year. A clean slate. I’m not holding out hope for much of an improvement on the past twelve months, so at least I’m not likely to be disappointed. Early Satur… Read More

A promisingly dry day for a ride was somewhat belied by the faintest hint of rain that hung in the air as I dropped down the Heinous Hill and kicked out along the valley. This thankfully fai… Read More

We have a late entry in the outsize packaging competition, so thanks Wiggle – not quite up to the standards of Bikester, but pretty impressive nonetheless. At least I won the Haribo lo… Read More
Sur La Jante | The C… · 12:16 24 Feb 2023
This week we found ourselves dancing around the remnants of Storm Otto for a bit of added attrition. This was most obviously manifest in turning the Tyne Valley into a ferocious wind tunnel… Read More
Sur La Jante | The C… · 22:31 24 Mar 2023
So, a fortnight ago I set off for the usual club ride, dropped down the hill and was pushing along the valley when the Frankenbike developed a very annoying tic in the form of a very annoyin… Read More

In what is fast becoming something of an unwelcome 2023 tradition, Saturday morning was once again marred by heavy rain showers. This time they struck just as I started downhill and had me p… Read More
Sur La Jante | The C… · 17:47 12 Apr 2023
Saturday morning. Again. Club run. Again. Rain showers. Again. Naturally. So, rinse and repeat. Literally. Ugh. So, here we go again then rain jacket on and heading out th… Read More
Sur La Jante | The C… · 16:57 05 May 2023
Dry but very chilly weather at least gave us a break from all the horrible and wet Saturdays we seem to be enduring lately and the conditions were good enough to tempt a few more riders to o… Read More
Sur La Jante | The C… · 16:20 19 May 2023
The weekend before I’d spent in Ambleside, avoiding all the Chuck 3 profligacy and ridiculousness, while taking in a few walks to use sets of muscles I don’t normally stress. I d… Read More
Sur La Jante | The C… · 20:19 26 May 2023
It was another chilly start with the promise of bright sunshine later in the day, so once again I set out in a light, windproof jacket, and arm warmers, only this time I’d learned from… Read More
