We’ve not actually got to the wedding planning part yet, still bouncing around and grinning like idiots because he asked and I said yes.

Now, in the ultimate test, I shall attempt to post pictures:

He dropped down on one knee at our local kids’ janky dirt jumps and proposed with this ring he designed and had made by his friend and ex BMX pro Matt Beringer. It’s Ti and looks a bit like a tyre - with a slick centre for smooth rolling and knobbly edges for traction over rough ground.

That's really awesome news. I've no idea who you are, but I'm still smiling and really happy for you guys. Congratulations.

*My proposal to Mrs Beagleboy was only slightly less romantic. As I recall, we were in the car on the way to Tesco when I turned to her and said, "Do you fancy going to Las Vegas and getting married by Elvis?" and she replied with something like, "Ha!, that'd be a laugh".

Really pleased for you, it's brightened up a grey and damp morning wonderfully.

@beagleboy ‘don’t you know who I am!’. I’m that Hannah that works here. (Yes, there’s a magazine! And a website!). I know a barrister that specialises in divorce that got married in Vegas in a drive through wedding!

@tthew I did say ‘a’ Singletrack wedding, not ‘The’ Singletrack wedding. That title surely goes to Chipps and Beate? Though, there have been quite a lot of Singletrack weddings and couplings over the years I think - staff, contributors and readers. Maybe we should have been a dating site.

Congratulations! Always good to see pictures of two people happy with that kind of commitment and the ring is great too.

Though, there have been quite a lot of Singletrack weddings and couplings over the years I think – staff, contributors and readers. Maybe we should have been a dating site.

Would bring a whole new meaning to the Bike forum I suppose...

Congratulations 😉 cargo bikes instead of bridal cars ?

... And the bride wore white, with a bit of mud splatter but it didn't detract

Looking forward to the articles On what tyres for an autumn wedding. SPD or flats with a wedding dress. Full Sus or Rigid - The Honeymoon edition.

Since you'll soon be a tandem rider, dibs on your Bigwig?

One of the megavalanches had a tandem doing it. Can we expect to see such a joint venture in the future ?
