Mountainbiking in Sussex and further afield too
If you’ve been in to mountain biking for any length of time, and by that I mean over twenty years, you’ll remember gazing lovingly into the adverts in the back pages of MBUK and those undoubtedly included Stif. They’ve been around since the eighties when they were Stif Sailboards, selling mountain bikes to windsurfers for…
A recent look on the equipment page on Strava revealed that my Travers and I have now spent 5000 miles together. It’s quite interesting to look back at the original photos and see how the kit on the bike has changed since it first turned up in November 2015, but I can safely say that…

The Sustrans NCN2 route runs along the bottom on my road and when my family had decided to go camping in Cornwall I decided I’d ride along and meet them. The first part of trip is pretty familiar as I have ridden along there on more than one occasion on my way to other places….
Great conditions this year for the Brighton Big Dog, as ever the course was great and despite the weather in the week before it was dry and super tacky, the descents were awesome!
