In an app full of enthusiasts who love (almost) everything about their passions I'm a true believer in Sturgeon's Law.

Moaning, groaning, some bikes and tech.

Out with the pup. There's snow, frost and ice everywhere. There's also a bloke out washing his car on his driveway.

You must really hate your life if that's what a Sunday morning in winter means to you.

Pic of the pup for good vibes!

Today will be spent fixing a new bionics kit to Sally. An Xmas pressie from my youngest after I put mine on her bike last year so she could use it to commute to work. Thinking of switching the tyres to a nice gravel style as well for a bit of comfort.

Cold and windy dog walk with added hairy coo's at Gleniffer Braes today. Sadly the view was hampered by the mist over the city.

Long overdue jockey wheel change....

Today's cycle maintenance was a nice new chain and cassette for Sally.

Avalanche brakes swapped from cantilever to V. Only decision now is if I leave it as a 3X5 or swap out the drivetrain.

In my drift more and more to becoming a 'roadie' I have purchased an old GPS cycle computer. Totally not needed but at a winning bid of 99p I can't go wrong even if it's garbage!

Play time.

V brakes purchased for the old Avalanche. That's tomorrow's job sorted.

Having fun getting cheap muddies designed for a modern mountain/hybrid bike onto the old lady. Position of the back one is only temp until new V brakes arrive and I can remove the canti.

Not weather for slicks.

That's the snow finally hitting Glasgow. Glad I got the old girl back on the road for it.

Rear mech fully adjusted and set on the old Fag Coupon Flyer. Was also gonna do the front but the cable end has frayed and it will need a new one so just the two large chainrings in operation.

That's the cold commuting weather hitting now. Time to look out the real winter cycling gear.

The only new bike I have owned was returned to me the other week. A crappy mid 90's mountain bike. Sentimental value and my hoarding gene mean that I need to get it road worthy again and in use. Only decision is stay original or upgrade certain parts.
