🚴 With Forest at the frame builder, Ritchey the Backup at the wheel builder, and my MTB being wrong for the trip, the friend I sold my old adventure bike to is kindly letting me borrow it back.

💪🏼 Bike of Theseus Returns! 🍻

He’s even washed it for me! 😍

Emptied the Struggle Bus of chainsaws and machetes. 😔

Stripped Ritchey for parts.

Grabbed a bivvy bag and some sustainable bike bits from #AlpKit.

Gotta pack the bike then haul my ass to the ferry, but it’s looking like a bike holiday! 🇮🇹🤌🏻

Shout-out to those marking 91st anniversary of #KinderTrespass today - almost a century after that courageous act, still only 8% of English land & 3% of rivers are legally accessible to the public. Time to extend @Right_2Roam & #RightToSwim - access to nature benefits us all
RT @outdoorswimming: They came, they trespassed, they swam.
Well done to all who swam at the #KinderTrespass today, amazing turnout!

Thanks #alpkit and #paudiephoto for the photos, more to …

@ChrisMayLA6 don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

Every #BCorp I’ve discovered in the #UK are existing, reputable companies that have taken a step to formalise their values (#Riverford, #Alpkit, #KrystalHosting, #ZenInternet). It’s an extra badge or stamp that acknowledges their effort and certifies their honesty. Maybe in some cases it is not “enough” - of course there are always improvements to be made in anything… but it is something; something good.

Productive evening in the garage: new tyres and new brake discs on new wheels, new wheels on (old) bike.

Still have to add sealant, but I'll do that when it's ready to roll; need to swap out a cracked brake/gear lever bracket first.
