I hated my sks speedrockers ….
Never thought they fitted right - now they sit in the garage never to be used again I expect lol

I came to gravel from two fat bikes - so 26 x 4 …… couldn’t get along with a 29err / tried the 26 (650b) nah.. went fatty … loved it / even did pru ride London on the white one ! But eventually went to 700 gravel / now considering a second gravel for gravel and leave the steelie as a winter hack lol

Tale of two Beauties
Audax / took over 20 mins off last years efforts & I was on the heavier set steelie x1
So win win chicken dinner happy with that …

It’s just a 100 .. but I can’t decide if it’s thermal longs or just still bibs & long leg warmers ..

It’s finally here … 4 new boots day for the satsuma…
Means one thing … I’m keeping it for at least another 40k
Seems daft to move it on .. part ex will be stupid .. & frankly it does all I need it too do … So Here’s a slightly Frankenstein Halloween 🎃 pic of it …

So that’s a few 100’s factored for the new season… Now any 200’s in my area / need to add the green 500 to my badge collection - only a few from the B2000 - so that’s within easy reach now too - then onto the B3000 - these badges are addictive!!

I didn’t get on with them - my gravel in its early life - lots changed since this was taken

Oh boy - I’ve started mapping out the 2026 mini Normandy tour by bike (obviously) .. my eldest son is keen to ride it with me / I yet to have a house pass I suspect many many many brownie points will need to be scored - along with juggling time re Audax’s so could be an interesting period of time

It once was a gravel … now it’s a morphed steelie x1 for winter local rides & Winter Audax
32mm Marathons with a 46tooth Oval front chain ring 🚴👍🏼

I can relate - recently bought a learner car (uni son and his brother) a 1.2 Corsa .. let’s say I can ride hills faster on my bike lol … but it has an awesome paint job
July 25, 2025 at 3:56 PM
It was a hot day !

Am I the only one that thinks the cheaper Sciroccos look ‘more’ expensive than the actual Zondas that are £££ lots more than the Sciroccos
Bike set up with the Sciroccos for autumn use - will probably be putting the Zondas back on for next weekend’s mendips … but leaving the raceblades on
July 6, 2025 at 5:14 PM
An evening of tweaking and minor changes
New pd-es400 single sided pedals on the steelie gravel
And just fitted the mildly dirty 12sp cassette from the winter calimas onto the autumn sciroccos … oh and fitted some 4 seasons on them …. Roll on semi wet days hahahah
