A worn chain in need of replacement.

Regular replacement of your worn chain saves you money in the long run as otherwise your other drivetrain components will need replacing too.

Repair2ride is proud to announce that for the 2013 Cycle Speedway season we will be sponsoring the reigning British Individual Champion, Andy Angell. 

Andy Angell is not only the UK's No.1 rider but also a top lad who offers advice and help to other riders no matter what their ability or age. Andy rides for Hull Cycle Speedway Club and this year he is aiming to retain his British Individual title, and become the World Cycle Speedway Champion by beating the best riders in the world at the World Championships being held in Australia. 

As part of the sponsorship deal Repair2ride will be providing repairs and parts to keep Andy as the UK's No.1 rider, and helping to fund him so he can achieve his dream of becoming a World Champion. 

If you'd like to do the same, and see a lad from Hull as World Champion then follow this link and donate.

Yesterday, Sunday 10th March I took part in round one of the Nutcracker XC series held at Dalby Forest. It was bittingly cold and muddy, but very enjoyable. I came a creditable 15th in the Masters catergory, completing the 5 laps (I'd been told it would be 4 laps so was shocked when the race starter told us it was in fact 5 laps!) in 1hr 49mins.

If any of you fancy taking part in future rounds of the series visit www.nutcrackermtb.co.uk for further details of the upcoming rounds

See below for photos of the event, that were kindly taken by my Dad.

The stand my bike is sat on came from the nice chap who runs Od Designs, who was at the race to promote the OdPod. It is perfect for holding your bike pre-ride, for those last minute gear adjustments & for whilst you wash your bike post ride. It folds up flat and doesn't weigh much so perfect to pop in the boot or use in your garage for at home adjustments.
Price £34.95 inc p&p

Last night fitted a new tyre and tube for a lad whose sidewall had worn through and the innertube popped, he'd had by all accounts a lucky escape.

So check you bike before you set off if you see anything like the pictures below call repair2ride and we'll come out and fix it for you so you can keep riding.
