Lincolnshire Wolds, the hilly part of Lincolnshire. Yes that's right some parts of Lincolnshire aren't flat! Have an old Saracen mountain bike I don't use much now. Bought 15 years ago and was my favourite for 12 years. Another bike with no decals on, again a mountain bike and hung up for winter use. Fitted with Scwalbe ice spikers.
Decided I have had enough of taking my bike for new wheels (rims worn down) and replacement gears. Gone for low maintenance rolhoff equipped bikes. Just sold a Thorn Raven Enduro (Rohloff) but also have a Santos Travelmaster also Rohloff equipped.
Recently purchased a Kalkoff power assist bike for pulling trailer. Used for firewood and dog (working Springer Spaniel) and anything else I can forage.
Will be looking for another Rohloff equipped bike. Gone off mountain bikes so probably another tourer. We'll see. Must get uber cheep or won't buy.

North Coast 500
Hi all, just found this forum I'm in Tongue, in Sutherland on the beautiful North Coast 500. Anyone cycled any of the route?
