Is it the one that the blonde woman in the wellies was riding?

it got commented on in our house, Mrs mW turned to be and said "that bike looks odd, is there something wrong with the wheels?"

Someone on the Uk Fatbike forum was perving over it (or the rider, I can't be sure which)

It was built by Charley the Bike Monger and is used by my old team to do beach sampling.

Really it isnt mine I told a lie 😳 but I did buy it 😀 it has been a fantastic acquisition and won over the doubters. I miss my Swansea team, apparently the girl presenter was really friendly and a good laugh.

Yes I need a hug godammit, I am hurting over here 😆

Hamish and Fran 😆 my old boss and team mate. Hamish is very keen biker, bought two Bromptons for people to use, met up last weekend as him and his daughter 13 were doing a tour of Somerset Dorset on the tandem 🙂

Is it just me or does that video look like it was taken by a stalker?

Dunno. Is that what your stalking videos look like?

Doubters over a beach bike? never! 😆

Ellie is real nice, turned up at my big bros wedding in his garden a few years back. Being best man and greeting guests with the tray of tipplers (which i had consumed most of) i chatted away and waffled on about fatbikes etc... and told her 5" of rubber is all you need for big grins..
her partner was not that impressed 😳 :mrgreen:

More beachriding on BBC this winter maybe 😉

I saw it.
I laughed at the niche clownbike and changed channels.

Damn, I missed that, got in later than usual and didn't see Country File. Shame, I really like Ellie, and she looked like she was having fun on the bike. I [i]did[/i] notice the bit at around 3'8", the little pan down, and lingering look at Ellie's legs... 😉
What's the drive-train on that bike? Looks like a very small chainring, the chain run seems almost parallel, BMX-like.

Slightly unsettling video. Filming a woman from a distance for 15 minutes riding a bike without her knowledge.

They banned that on our telly.
there's really no need for that sort of thing.

Yep, especially the bit at 3:03! And it was very BORING.
