Finessing my cockpit for the next 2 rides.
I'll have my dynamo back by the weekend, but it's not the greatest off road.
The 200km on sat has a few sections off road.
The bivvy ride next Friday is mostly off road, and will be significantly bigger than that.
Bring on the cold weather rides!!

It's new crankset day!!
Went for a Rotor Aldhu in 155MM
That's 15mm shorter than I run at present!
Thanks to @bikefit.bsky.social for the Rotor nod and for suggesting shorter cranks in the first place!

Day one of our Neolithic North ride.
We arrived at the Rollright stones just as the rain starts.
The good news is I'm not in most of the videos 😉

Got some great footage of my ride partner getting all nerdy at the Neolithic sites we visited.
But to start, here's us descending from the Yorkshire Dales!

It's planned.
All accommodation sorted.
We leave Sept 3rd!
3 days of 200+km
1 day of 130+ km
Day 4, the short day, includes Hartside pass.
This is not the sole reason I'm swapping the Faran to a Shimano XT 1x 12s wireless Derailleur, with a 10-51 cassette, but it's on the list!

Apidura Parallels 2025.
Ended up 13th out of all the participants, pretty happy with that.
Feel confident I could have added 100/150km to my total.
Wrote some words for Apidura about it.
