Volume is ramping nicely. Got a rest week coming up. Thank goodness.

Awesome day out. 28 degrees, no wind... Marlow, Henley, Windsor and one of the best cycling coffee stops.

And to think that hill is twice as high for you!

Befok my pal! That’s hot ????

Some Boxhill repeats. Kwasont and double shot flatty as a reward.

Even better, organic biodegradable and fully compostable! But well done on being “that guy” ????

Wandsworth Station. Over Under = Best Coffee in London aaaaand they do pods!

I would support NCR behind a pay wall. People who pay for things often have a bit more respect for it too. BUT somehow I do not think that is the main motivator to take it down.

Was bliksemed plenty, pain is temporary, detention takes away time that you never get back....

Of course, if I bungee chord it to the outside of the A380, along with some plakkies and get the pilot to wear a flannel shirt.... the #Groudies will be like:

Much preferred the option of hidings to detention. Was rather annoyed when they took that away when I was in Std 4

Exactly and then tjank when you get detention....

RAPHA + SNOW PEAK SINGLE WALLED MUG A titanium mug with foldable handles for bikepacking adventures.

How does Anton feel about this?

Rapha is answering all your groadie wishes... R640 cup that you can strap to the outside of your 20L saddle bag on your next 50km coffee ride.

THAT is what it’s all about. Nice one chaps!

Or is it....?

Love how the ads are now presenting me Lambos on this thread

Correction. You got teased for suggesting that the second hand prices are killing cycling. Most will agree that prices are very high, especially on the high end side of the market. Nobody here is whinging that that the Urus prices are killing the SUV markets.

While I was serious about people starting their own NCR forum, I do get your point. As a side point, the barrier to entry of starting a forum is magnitudes lowers than a political party, hell Facebook groups can be created in a matter of seconds. Its the maintenance and management that becomes the issue after you get over the hurdle of actually getting critical mass of members. Make no mistake about it, an astute youngsters should capitalise on this and form their EFF break away forum from the ANC that is the BikeHub (market share not ideologies) Yes, I agree that member moderators is the route that I would have taken, if I had a say, but I do not nor do I want it, I come for the bants. Edit: All this NCR talk keeps reminding me of Lance's failed stint at Ducati.... Edit Edit: Wonder if my political comparison above breaks the rules? Haven't had a warning point since 2017, so its high time! Viva forum revolution!!

Did you get a TUE?

Ok NotSoBigBoomer Moenie worries oor die klein *** nie.

While there is cancel culture, and I have said before that it’s one of our biggest current issues. “Cancel culture” has also become what anybody who calls out a bigot gets called by said bigot for calling out bigotry.

Here is an option for those giving Matt all this ‘advice’... if it’s so easy, you can always go start your own NCR forum. Upon successful BikeHubNCR launch, please post link here:

Get a standard R5 add a Bogus paint jobbie and Bob's your aunty.
