Must be the first time in about 10 years. Ms. Oldman decided we should drag them out of the garage and have a spin before breakfast. Lovely 531 steel frame, 52/42 chainring, stupidly small sprockets. I couldn't believe how skinny 20mm Hutchinsons looked. I now recall how achy my thighs used to get and how cold your willy gets in lycra.

Yes I do realise this means n+1 is a serious possibility.

Getting a 2nd willy is pure showmanship

I've struggled to understand why nobody makes bibshorts/threequarters with a windproof crotch

Starting to get back into road biking after a few years of MTB focus. Did a nice 70miler yesterday with some nice South Downs hills (Duncton up and G'wood to Singleton down).

Bib shots felt rather warm for the the weather and being blue, the sweat markings made it look like I had wet myself. Not a good look especially when stopping for refreshments in Midhurst Tesco!!
