tbh bib tights and shorts seem crazy money whatever you go for.

Not my €15.95 ones from decathlon in France, now that is a bargain. Seem fairly good from my limited riding so far. Full length too, only issue is when you need to go to toilet, as no zipper.

Where are you based?

In SW London you've got Twickenham CC, Kingston Wheelers, London Dynamo, Berrylands CC and Wimbledon Millers.

Ealing - Westerley is closest but they don't have a great deal of club rides. Hadn't seen where London Dynamo ride, their Richmond Park ride looks good, can't make tomorrow but weather permitting will probably head down next week and check them out :)

Anyone else a Dynamo member? Sounds like a big club

Quick question:

After nearly 8 weeks of no proper riding on my road bike, only commutes to and from work, how painfull is my first training ride going to feel?

Then how painful will the first week feel at the end

ps this includes getting back to proper running training so two brick sessions a day for 4 days a week:rolleyes:

(new trainers though tmw, yay lol)

I have my opinions about Dynamo but they are probably kept to myself.

Both Dynamo and Kingston Wheelers are about 500 members. TCC and BCC are smaller.

Yes they seem to have a reputation after a bit of googling - I know a guy in Kingston Wheelers and it's not that much further than Richmond - might check try both the club runs and see what they are like
 
Hoping to get first ride of 2013 in tomorrow. Looks like a foggy one but as long as it's not wet.

I'm heading out for our first proper ride of the year tomorrow morning. From Strava, it looks like no-one's ridden much since November, so I guess it'll be a fairly relaxed one.
 
sadly the closest decathalon to me is so many miles away it would be cheaper to buy casteli!


anyone know where I can pickup a dead cheap groupset 2300/2200/sora etc dead cheap?
need to adapt my steel bike.
