Weekend

Great weather at the weekend so we did some of this before work on Saturday

Sprout the shop dog 

Back to the shop for breakfast, work, then home to watch Wales beat England in the rugby!


Then on Sunday we went up to Cwm Rhaeadr for a bit of this.

(Thanks to Chris French for the surfing photos.)

Early Closing

We will be closing a bit earlier on Saturday because of the rugby. So if you're coming to see us then make sure you call in before 3.45pm.

Normal service will resume on Monday.

Clyne Valley MTB Trails

I Managed to make it to the Clyne Valley MTB trails meeting last night. There was some positive talk from the council employee regarding the XC trail so we hope to see some progress "soon".

With regards to Moos and Clyne there was less news and more speculation. Clyne Jumps may have some progress in the near future, i'll post more when I hear it. No major news on Moo's yet.

Singletrack have "Fresh Goods Friday" we have "New Stuff Wednesday" not as catchy, but I couldn't find anything that went with Wednesday. This is some of the pimpy stuff now in the shop.

Gusset Tight Bastard Lock On Grips £11.99

Also from Gusset, R-Series Saddle in Brown,White or Black/Grey £22.99

(It's the same shape as the Charge Spoon saddle)

We'll also be carrying limited stock of the Urge Enduro-Matic Helmet

They are fantastic for all kinds of riding (we use and recommend them)

We are now a dealer for Michelin tyres and tubes and have a range of touring, commuting and mountain bike tyres at excellent prices.

Birthday Cakes!

Bryony (Nick's daughter) has baked amazing cupcakes to mark the first anniversary of the shop. They are so good we thought they were worthy of a blog post. Thanks Bryony!

Save Moo's

As part of the campaign to re-open Moo's , Clyne Riders have produced T-Shirts to get the message out.
They can be purchased HERE

£2 from the sale of each shirt goes the Clyne Riders to support local riding,trail building and maintenance.

Happy New Year!

A bit of time off over Christmas has given us a chance to collate a list of brands available to us. 

We don't carry a lot of stock in the shop as there's just no room to put it, but we can order shiny new bits for you in usually just a day or two.

End Of The Year Video Awards

These are a few of our favourite videos on www.youtube.com and www.vimeo.com

Not about bikes but it makes us laugh.


This is one of my favourite sections from the surf film Sprout


We've not seen the film yet but hopefully it lives up to the trailer

Christmas Opening Hours and a Big Thank You

Christmas is almost here and with the new year brings our one year anniversary. This time last year we were getting the shop ready for opening in the freezing cold and snow with expensive and lavish interior fittings (ha!)

So here we are one year on, and we would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone who has supported us through our first year. Friends, old and new who have encouraged us and brought us their bikes, and who have kept us laughing (and in jaffa cake supplies) And our families, who have been behind us every step of the way.

It has been a brilliant year and we hope that we can continue with lots more of the same in the coming year.

We have normal opening hours until Christmas Eve when we well be open from 10am til 1ish.

We are then open on Wed 28th, Thurs 29th, Fri 30th from 11am til 4pm, and Sat 31th from 10am til 1ish.
