Dave does it for CHARITY!

Dave 2

Close friend, former colleague, all round nice guy and fellow mountain biker Dave ‘Dangerous’ Mitchell is giving up his time to cycle from Riga in Latvia to Tallinn in Estonia in aid of Marie Curie Cancer Care. He’s doing it at the end of August and needs your help to raise some vital funds. The route, covering 530 challenging kilometres, links two beautiful capital cities in Eastern Europe following the Baltic coastline. More information on the ride can be found here:

More importantly you can give a little here to help him on his way:

Alternatively you can donate to Dave’s charity ride at the shop or just send him a good luck message via this blog. Thanks for taking the time to read this; I know Dave will appreciate it too. Good luck buddy.

Recumbent fun

One of three headsets.

2007 ended in style when an interesting pair of recumbents came into the workshop for customers Dave and Helen Hart. Specially ordered from ICE (Inspired Cycle Engineering), the ‘Trice T’ models are an ultra-comfortable touring recumbent trike with rear suspension and the ability to fold up and fit in the boot!  As with all build-ups we have to test them (you’d expect nothing less!) and we were really impressed with how well they handle and as you can imagine they are also super comfortable with the laid back riding position. 

Check out the ICE website for pricing and parts.  This is Dave and Helen showing us how it’s done. 

The Harts

Many thanks to them for their patience whilst sourcing the bikes and accessories, we wish them many happy miles of cycling. Click on any of the images for more pictures.
