Best buy of this weekend; a pair of apparently never-used - judging by appearance - black 700c SKS guards (less fixing bolts, which I had at home anyway) from a Headingley charity shop for a fiver! Already fitted to the winter/commuter bike to replace the old cracked/rattling ones previously on it, and definitely the bright spot of the weekend after all the grief I'm having fitting my handlebars back on the race bike (same stem with new forks, and they don't seem to be the best of friends!).

Headingley, Leeds ? You always been in these parts ?

I've only been in Leeds since last June. Mind you, since leaving home at 18 to start a degree, I've had spells in Sheffield, Huddersfield [1] and York too, so was fairly familiar with this neck of the woods already!
