Organisation, decals, bits and bobs




Well I'm back from Uni so getting on with sorting myself out. Ferry is booked, car is booked to go in for a service and the bike prep has begun.

Still on the to do list is to get a satnav, get some European breakdown cover and get a green card to go with my car insurance. It seems like I've left a couple of bits to the last minute, but I'm still feeling like my organisation is going ok.

To get things started, I've applied the decals I got from Regal Graphics which are looking good. I've also got my bits and bobs together. Still to buy are some frame bearings and shock bolts, and then get my wheel built up onto the new hub.

Practice

There's about three weeks till I'm heading out To stay in Morzine with Riders Retreat. I've been trying to get out on my bike as much as possible so today I headed out to the local BMX track after doing some laps of the campus.

Also to try and remember what it's like out there I've been watching loads of videos of riding out there. Check out the one below.
