Raid Majorca 2013 Notes

Hi and welcome to "Raid Majorca 2013"

1stly to confirm taxi leaving ours at 01:30 Sat. April 13th. Be here before 01:00 or you are welcome to join us at the pub Fri evening either Castle in the Air or The Bird in Hand?

If your not here when we leave at 01:30 we will have to go without you!!

I have been packing my bike and thought I should list the tools I'm taking, so that we don't double up.

Track pump - it would be good to have 2 track pumps, who else has a good one?
Allen keys
2 x spare tubs
Tub tape
6 x spare tubes
Chain disconnect tool
Chain connect tool
2 x brake cables
2 x gear cables
Small screw drivers
Pliers
Tape measure
Torque wrench - small
I have purchased 4 x latex Tub gunge that we will take

Helmets are compulsory in Spain

Don't foget you should all have 2 bottle cages fitted and be carrying your own tubes (if relevant) & multi tool.
Make sure you have new tyres fitted preferably the "grippy" ones I prefer Conti's Chilli compound, these only come in black, I have new ones here if you've left it too late to buy some.
Please check brake blocks are OK preferably new.

I will add more to the list as and when.

Tony

I shall bring the second track pump.

I just looked at BBC weather. 24 degrees on sunday!!

Enjoy yourselves guys!

I'm not at all jealous that you are leaving this misserable weather behind to go cycling for a week in the sunshine of Majorca - honest!!!
