Thursday thoughts – bike industry shake up
The bike industry’s bike shop business model is dog shit. Here are some ideas for anyone worried that they are going out of business. I hope it helps someone out of the drain. Please address all hate mail to the comments. Thanks.
Gravel bike build – £100 Budget custom bike

These riders cling to their baggy shorts just as their baggy shorts cling to them in the rain or …
How to become a cyclist.
How do you become a cyclist? Cyclists are not born with a tendency for dressing in spandex and balancing themselves on small patches of rubber whilst travelling at 50 kmph.
