Have you seen him on social media?
Riding his DIY wooden bike. From John o' Groats to Dover.

Not quite like the wooden bikes you may have seen before, that's for sure.

Love it!

Especially since he's running what looks like an 'insert on the outside' tyre set up.  I hope he remembered to patent it.  Could be the next big thing the industry jumps on.

In all seriousness though, I find his, '**** it, let's just get on with it' attitude inspiring and I hope some of it rubs off on me so I can stop obsessing about the minutia of my own bike set up and just go ride my bike more 🙂

The braking system looks pretty scary!
