Any bike lock recommendations? I have no idea what's good or shite.

if anyone wants to buy a quality road bike at a fraction of its value please PM me - weighs 7.8kgs, lightly raced, cost a grand new, reason for sale is an upgrade from the same factory:
stunning bike for the money - did the Mcr/Blackpool trip in 2hrs 39mins (54 miles) and I've had a CABG x3

Mods, please bin if not allowed

Moda Tempo review

British brand Moda cuts price of its Tempo model to £1399, but has it affected the ride?

It was probably okay on paper but I think all the unnecessary logos, instructions and mis-coloured access covers make it look dreadful.

Here's how it looks with it all removed, it's not really that difficult ...


The give way in the centre part is weird but that's because that side comes off a road crossing so they wouldn't want cyclists queuing back from there if the give way was in the expected approach.

It’ll look better when they remove the sellotape.

I signed upto the bike to work scheme about 20 months ago.
Got a haibike all mtn 5.
Cost 5500 quid .
But it's absolutely brilliant.
Once I've finished paying for it I'm going to sell it hopefully get 3 to 3500 and start again with either the same bike or very similar.
Any one recommend anything and also Where's the best place to sell it.
Thanks guys

My first cycle commute of the year this morning for various reasons; not ridden at all since mid November. It's only a short ride (just over 10km), but a fair section of it is steeply uphill.

Really feeling it in the legs now. Not looking forward to the way home ;-)

Drivers,

It's a bad overtake if:

You overtake at <1.5m
You overtake and then immediately have to slam on the brakes the second you get past,
You overtake just before a red traffic light, T-Junction, roundabout or pinch point,
You overtake just before turning left or right,
You overtake into oncoming traffic or over double-white lines when I'm doing more than 10mph.

Is it really worth saving those few seconds at the risk killing or seriously injuring a vulnerable road user?

Rant over ;-)
