Chocolate Log


Filth
8 February

This weekend we are blessed with the sun donning a hat and the trails will be running unseasonably sweet. But alas, there's loads more wintery pissing rain and mucky trails to come.

This little video reminds me that you can have fun even when the weather's not.

So get out and ride!

Ned Overend Not Dead
6 February

Ned Overend Not Dead

To contrast the ATBing community's collective mourning of bicycle maintenance legend Sheldon Brown - writer of many things bike, but especially for me, the best guide ever on building wheels - I thought it would be good to mention that Ned Overend, one of the oldest men ever, is not dead.

Not now either. Or now. Really quite amazing.

Apologies if you're reading this a little later, and Ned is in fact dead. John Tomac is probably still alive if that's any good to you. Can't be sure about Gary Fisher.

RIP Sheldon.
