Mainly yeah. Be doing a lot of local XC lately to try and get fit. Found a few good trails at Woburn and that's only 30 mins away.

Never been to Porc, want to. Just having the time really. When the weather is better I'll be sure to check it out as some mates have been a few times.

Got Bike Park Wales uplift booked for 9th May

Realised Madison do Kryptonite and they're a customer at work, so sometimes I can get staff purchases.

Selected this one as I need it to be quite long:
http://www.madison.co.uk/products/cycling/accessories/locks/new-york-fahgettaboudit-chain-and-padlock-150-cm/

Bike Radar review said it took 3 minutes to get through and blunted the angle grinder blade in the process

Shite

Only chain and lock combo worth having is Almax 3/4 and Squire SS65CS lock

http://www.almax-security-chains.co.uk/Almax-Immobiliser-Series-IV/c-1-70/

or

Protector 19mm and same padlock.

http://securityforbikes.com/security-chains.php

None will stop a grinder but they are noisy and not often the tools of choice. The above will be prevent pretty much all mechanical attacks, croppers, sledgehammers etc...

As will the Kryptonite, according to reviews. Plus it is Thatcham Cat 3 and Motorcycle Sold Secure Gold, so that's pretty good going.

I had heard of the Almax stuff.

I can't get it cheap though

Saying that, my brokers words in an email regarding lock grade:
"As long as the bikes are in a securely locked building that all the insurers need."

Just about to have a big push on my business, I'm stumping up a considerable wedge for two new machines to not only make my job easier but also to make the job I do better for everyone.

Brother Cole,

You went further, longer, faster, quicker, more stylishly, more skillfully, and basically better then everybody else on here.

You are a legend IMHO don't let anyone tell you differently.....
