I was supposed to do the Devil in 2020, but we all know what happened that year. By the time 2021 rolled around I wasn't feeling up to it. Still there, nagging at the back of my mind. I've done the Fred twice, and the Dragon Ride looks like a nice alternative. Bit more of a trek to get to the start from Lancaster though 😂😂

Yeah, it's a bit further, took me 5.5 hours to get back, I'm 20 minutes north of you! Would recommend it though...

Great ride Scott, well done 👍But don't you find these ostentatious 'look at me here I am' freewheels so annoying!!! And for all the wattage obsessives it must be self-defeating because simple physics dictates that it takes more energy (so in this case friction i.e. drag) to generate a loud noise than a quiet one...............
@CycletheNationАй бұрын
Cheers. ☺️ Honestly, I think your opinions on why people have loud freewheels is misplaced. I don't know anyone that gets one to show off, they just have the one that comes with the bike / wheelset. The noise / wattage doesn't make any difference either really, as nobody is bothered about losing 0.1w, especially as when the freewheel is making the noise, the rider isn't pedalling anyway. Plus, I like a loud one, it's as good as a bell for me.

Not sure if there is a campaign with an official website set up that through the campaign could organise a bike ride protest through London to bring to the attention of media the need to sort this out, as it affects all road uses and needs sorting. Just doing good repair jobs would be a great start not even relaying the roads at this point.

The road owner is responsible for any damage or injury caused by the state of the road. So if you have any cost claim it by the state or community. That will put some pressure on repairing the road properly. Don't forget you have to prove the damage is caused by the road. So take some pictures of your bike before you go cycling and right after the damage occurred and what caused it. If you are so badly injured you are not able to work, your boss can claim his costs too. This method is used in Belgium (Flanders) and it greatly improved the overall state of the roads.
