@M88GAV This looks excellent — please can you advise me where I could buy the fork mount ? I looked through forum but could only see instructions on how to make one myself. Thanks

I got mine from Aliexpress:

Steeds I’ve been stealing KOMs on this week, red / black Inflite is Anna’s (better half)





Allez is one of 100 ever produced, I use this on flatter races, Venge does the rest.

Ben (8), Jack (7) and I led our first Tandem Club ride on our triplet: Locks, Docks and One Smoking Ferry.

One triplet, four tandems, one recumbent and two solos. The ride was one of closures. The Thames Barrier was closed (a very rare reverse head closure); the Woolwich Ferry was closed; the north lifts at the Woolwich Foot Tunnel were closed; National Cycle Route (NCR) 13 was closed past Excel and the Thames Path into King Edward Memorial Park was closed.

Fabulous day out yesterday on the Peak trials. Did a circular route, starting at Friden (free parking) and headed down the High Peak Trial towards Middleton Top before branching off via Carsington Water to join the Tissington Trail, and then heading back up towards Parsley Hay. 30 odd glorious miles mainly on traffic free trails. Fully recommended.

I rode solo from the bike shop towing two children’s bikes on a flatbed trailer hauled behind the triplet. 5 saddles, 8 wheels.

2.5 miles nearly all on the A20, including Cliftons Roundabout (A20 x South Circular) and a right turn across four lanes at the Dutch House pub onto Mottingham Lane.

Not my main bike, but now my new favourite! Packs into the Cali really easily. I do all my “roadie” riding indoors now on Zwift, so I sold my best road bike for the Brompton! Mad? Maybe. But I’m happy. These pictures are from today, a very cold ride around the road that circles Barra in the Outer Hebrides. Not a bad little workout with just 3 gears. Stunning scenery.

My ride

Whytes E180S.

I know it’s an e-bike, I have a naturally aspirated boardman mht8.9 also but the e-bike does add fun to the uphill mountain bike trails.

 

[Californication69]

Snap. But the 160 RS. Such a comfy bike.
Looking forward to some more rides this year as didn’t do any last year due to too much work.
And bonus, back to the Cali for coffee !

Good call! I rented a Brompton for 2 months to see if it will fit into my work/travel style and it did. Just picked up a 6 speed off eBay. They are such versatile bikes.

Great bikes!

I bumped and bashed my way down the Flåm railway navvies track on my Brompton, towing two toddlers in a child trailer.

Here is my 'randonneur' bike. I have entered lots of 'brm' rides and hope to ride Paris -Brest -Paris in August. I will use my Cali as support vehicle.
