Royal Mail try to encourage move away from using bikes
Royal Mail try to encourage move away from using bikesWhen I first read the news that Royal Mail bosses were actively encouraging their posties to use vans in a move to replace their trusty Pashley bikes, I was less than happy, but more saddened. It’ll be a sad day when the postal service are exclusively [...]

On-One website redesign
Whilst visiting the On One website to find out more about the upcoming 456 Carbon frame-set, I was pleasantly surprised to find a striking and significantly improved website redesign at www.on-one.co.uk. The first thing to notice was the new approach to the organisation of content, which on the old site was clunky and muddled making content [...]

Roding Valley Half Marathon, finisher
Almost an entire month after completing my first ever official half marathon event I’ve summoned the energy to write about the painful memories of the 2 hours and 9 minutes it took me to complete the Roding Valley Half Marathon. The preparation for this event was fairly limited, a handful of weekend 10 km runs, numerous [...]

First ride on new hardtail I built 2 months ago. On One 456 rides nicely taking sting out of the tail. Needs longer fork, Pike perhaps. #mtb # RT @hurns: Great piece on wiggo RT@TeamSkyNews: Bradley Wiggins: 'It's time for me to step up a gear' http://bit.ly/cdPjC5 #
The Running Man, covering the half marathon distance
Two weeks and counting until the I “compete” in the Roding Valley Half Marathon. Nervous about never before having covered the full distance for this event (21km or 13 and a bit miles) I took it upon myself to give it a go in advance. My worst fear on the day is not being able to [...]
London Tri offers “Olympic Plus”, what a liberty!
Having already entered this year’s London Triathlon I’m now used to receiving a fair few emails from IMG, organisers of the event, inviting me to sign up to some of their other events which I’m tempted to do and no doubt will at some point in the future. IMG’s latest communication however took be aback [...]

5 week countdown to Roding Valley Half Marathon
The Roding Valley Half Marathon, my first “competitive” event of 2010 looms closer taking place on 28 February. I’ve never run further than 10km previously, and to this day still haven’t run past the 12.5km mark, so yet to know if I’m able to last the extra 9.5km that I’ve not run previously. I do keep [...]

Blenheim tri here I come, first of 3 triathlons in 2010
Blenheim tri here I come, first of 3 triathlons in 2010 Quite unexpectedly I recently signed myself up for this year’s Blenheim Triathlon. It wasn’t an event I was planning to participate in as I’d already signed up for the Windsor Triathlon olympic distance taking place the following weekend on 13 June, but I caved under [...]
