This blog dedicated to cycles/bikes and the variety of uses they have around the world. Being a keen cyclist and having previously worked in a cycle shop it is only natural that my interest is reflected here.

My Boardman Comp Bicycle in Bulgaria
Brought over to Bulgaria with in in 2017, my 2016 model Boardman Comp purchased from Halfords in Cricklewood London has served me well over the last 18 months. Built for Cyclocross racing it is ideal for Bulgaria roads with their potholes and rough terrain. I don't' think a road bike would last on these roads here from my experience.

1992 Raleigh Kalahari stripped down Ready For a Facelift
Well I've had this bike since buying it new from Halford in 1992. Put dropped handlebars on, gave it three coat os Hammerite and set it up for a hybrid tourer, two of which I completed up and down France. Brought it over to Bulgaria in 2005 and lent it out for over 10 years. Now back in my hands this year. Stripped it down today and will be giving it a new lease of life as a hop around town bike.
(Will post a picture when completed.)

Brompton for London but NOT Bulgaria
Bought this in London and used it for commuting and many runs, ideal and loved every moment. My move to Bulgaria was the end of the Brompton Romance, it just would not have survived the ragged cobblestoned street that frequent the town I now live it. Some other Londoner is now enjoying the commute on my ex-bike.
