On the left there is a link called blogroll. In there is all the feeds I subscribe to now. I reckon there’s more good bike reading to be had out there. What am I missing? Give me some links for further consumption dear readers. Please. Fat Lad

Fat Lad Goes Cold Turkey
January 6, 2008 – 12:01 pm
Well, for a short while anyways. Holiday to use up and the siren call of the far north luring us away from our fair city we drove to our favourite bolt hole in Scotland. But without the bikes. For the cyclists amongst us let me do that again in italics for emphasis: But without the […]

I am so unmotivated it’s beyond funny. Two weeks of illness combined with the sudden and downright bloody […]
Fat Lad Wants To Know….

How come my wife knows more about my bike and kit than I do… Exhibit A: My winter boots. Upon entering the bicycle shop Fat Lad tried on several pairs of boots. All were either too big or too small each lacking the required “Goldilock” factor. Settling upon a pair too big Fat Lad was […]

November 22, 2007 – 2:23 pm
Bummers, I hope it was rubbish This is what I have just posted on the beacon of reasoned debate and cycling knowledge that is the Bad Brains Mountain Bike Club Forum. It may come across as a little bitter. It should. I’ve got the full monk on! I didn’t even manage two miles in before […]
