Beaulieu International Auto Jumble…. Or should that be ‘Bicycle Jumble’?

September 6, 2015 JLS

With the sun beaming through the curtains and awake by 6:30am I chanced my luck asking Charlie if she fancied going to the Beaulieu International

PURE JOY! What cycling should be! This 26” wheeled, Reynolds tubed, rockshox quadra’d, tan walled, mavic d521’d, swept barred, v braked, BMX gripped, singlespeed steed is pure fun. It’s comfy, like buttery smooth, handles really well, and looks fantastic. To think I saved this from the scrap metal pile at the dump......the Claud Butler rides again! It might not be light (but rides like it) and the gearing leaves a little to be desired.... so need to fit the full STX group I have hanging around from the gravel bike.... 24 speed here I come! . . . . . . . #26aintdead #savetheratbike #klunkerbike #26er #26eraintdead #26inchlifestyle #steelisreal #claudbutler #reynoldstubing #rideyourbike #outsideisfree #wymte #roadslikethese #lifebehindbars #lifebehindhandlebars #singlespeed #singlespeedmtb #singlespeedbike #instacycling #instacyclist #instacycle #gravelbike #gravelride #ridegravel #bournemouthcyclist

Went out to try a local 10 mile TT route, great intentions..... but a lot got in the way of the time I wanted. Firstly the wind was all in the wrong place, constant all the way round the loop 😂 then we have my legs that are just beat still 🤷🏼‍♂️ then we have flipping horse riders riding along a road 🤦🏼‍♂️ and a section of gravel on a corner that almost took me down 😬....... but came away with third! Reckon I have at least a minute to gain.... 🤣 Where’s your local favourite segment? . . . . . . . . . #rideyourbike #outsideisfree #rideslikethese #roadslikethese #whyiride #fromwhereiride #roadcycling #roadcyclist #roadcyclingpics #roadcyclinglove #roadcyclingphotos #roadcyclinglife #instacycling #instacyclist #cyclingselfie #strava #stravacycling #ribblecycles #lussobike #wymtm #roadbikeporn #cyclist #bournemouthcyclist

FRIDAY NIGHT DINNER. Bloody hot! Wasn’t really feeling it initially last night, legs are still a bit of a mess from last week’s madness (10 mile trail run inc 10 mile pb at just over 8 min miles, and 77 mile ride with 3600ft of climbing at 18mph) so first 5 miles were a bit crunchy. Loosened up a bit and took a leaderboard on a segment that I’ve wanted for a while, bodes well for moving up it as well as it was a bit of a last minute decision to push.... I know I have more in the tank for it 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 Do you love strava segments as a way of testing your fitness? I do! . . . . . . . . . . . #cycling #cyclinglife #cyclingselfie #cyclingshotscol #komhunter #strava #stravacycling #stravachallenge #roadbike #roadbikepics #roadbikelife #roadbikeporn #whyiride #fromwhereiride #wymte #roadslikethese #pushyourself #pushyourlimits #instacycling #instacycle #instacyclist #thenewforest #ribblecycles #lussobike #absoluteblack #bournemouthcyclist

Bit of a smash fest out to Shaftesbury and up the famous zig zag hill today. It’s had a lovely new surface popped onto it and is an impressive improvement over before! 77 miles in the bank and over 3500ft of climbing, enjoyed that! And oh... this weather 💓 where did you ride today? . . . . . . . . . #rideyourbike #whyiride #fromwhereiride #instagood #instacycle #instacyclist #roadcycling #roadcycling #wymtm #roadslikethese #earnyourturns #colcollector #roadbikeporn #baaw #cyclingselfie #cyclinglife #cyclist #cyclingphotos #cyclingshots #lifebehindbars #lussobike #ribblecycles #bournemouthcyclist

So this is my 1000th post! Who would have thought you could stretch out taking the same old pictures of riding bicycles that long eh! Well I don’t know about you but for me, riding bicycles will never get old. I will though... ticked over another year yesterday.... Super lucky to able to get out an enjoy the great outdoors in these trying times. With the New Forest in my back yard there’s plenty to explore as well.... I even found a figure of eight track with a berm today in the middle of the heath! Great fun for ripping round on the gravel bike.... I’m such a big kid 😂 Anyway, get out there and enjoy it! . . . . #1000thpost #1kpost #gravelride #gravelbike #gravelbikes #gravelgrinder #newforestgravelheaven #steelisreal #dawesbikes #reynoldstubing #gravelcycling #instacycling #instacycle #instacyclist #instacyclingpics #fromwhereiride #whyiride #wymtm #baaw #wheelie #berm #rivercrossing #thenewforest #newforest #lifebehindbars #lifebehindhandlebars #doyouevengravelbro #ridegravel #rideyourbike #bournemouthcyclist

GRAVEL FIX. Quick gravel outing this morning on the old knacker.... goes well for a 16 year old frame. Let’s make no bones though, it’s Reynolds tubing put together by @dawes_cycles in the 90s. Smooth! Also copped some silver wear on it as well 🤷🏼‍♂️ where did you guys ride today? . . . . . . . #gravel #gravelbike #gravelbikes #gravelride #gravelbiking #vintagesteel #steelisreal #steelbikes #reynoldstubing #dawesbikes #rideyourbike #newforestgravel #newforestgravelheaven #cycling #lifebehindbars #instacycling #instacyclist #instacycle #instacyclinglife #cyclinglife #wymtm #whyiride #fromwhereiride #bournemouthcyclist
