I'm after bib shorts reasonably cheap with good padding. Been told Planet X ones are good.

Anyone recommend any? I have a fair whack in my paypal account so I'd like to use it on the auction site.

I got some biemme ones from Planet X that have been good, I got the DHB ones last year, which I thought were fantastic at first, but provide very little comfort now, so are left to small commutes. If you're willing to spend a bit more Assos S2 from the assos outlet for £90 are my favourite shorts by a country mile.

First part of new Groupo sourced. £95 from the auction site. Stuck with a compact. It seems like its not had much use.

Most shops take paypal now anyway. CRC, Wiggle and PlanetX all do anyway.

Looks like I'm going to be doing Liege - Bastogne - Liege with some friends from my club in April so I'm going to need some much better shorts for spending that long in the saddle.

I'm also hoping for a fairly decent bonus in March for a bike fit and some other shiny bits.

I just drilled the Dolan's fork. Even though I jigged it up correctly and measured and checked everything more than twice, it's still a brrrrrrrp moment when you stick a 6mm drill all the way through a virgin fork crown

I haz brake.

Not been out for ages, due to go out tomorrow, it's going to bucket down.

Fudge.

Small boxes for the price they charge!

Swapping a bike from external battery to internal battery + update for multishift.

Still not been on my road bike since October, maybe in February. MTB is filling the void for now.

I tried my new shorts today (on the Turbo), got some Lusso Pro Gel, omg these are fantastic, much better than my under shorts, that half a really thin pad
cant wait to try these throughout the year, I think these will be better than my DHB bib shorts, might have to get this in the bib version !!m only cost me £45

So...let's say you were considering cycling 100 miles for charity and feel bad getting sponsorship for your hobby. What do you do? I'm considering dressing up...
