Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I cycled today! Not far & not fast but first proper cycle since primary school. Bit nervy but happy to survive without falling off. Hands were a bit sore as think had bit of a death grip on the handle bars!

I was a wee bit warm. Hard to judge layering.

A friend sent me a link to a bike in my size, which I sent to another friend because she’s more knowledgeable. She said no but then sent me this link:
chainreactioncycles.com

It’s not as pretty as the one that fell through but it will soon be mine :)

Most probably. Currently got an Islabikes Luath 26. Mostly works but am looking at upgrading in the next year or two. New cycle to work scheme just launched so will check that out.

I’ve been lucky to be able to bump up my savings during lockdown Maz. I can’t afford to get the VW Caddy I’ve been planning to buy (Bloody student accommodation) so the bike is my consolation.
