Re: Photo chain link...

Link = 2 riders pointing. Yours truly (the short one) on the border of France and Spain in 2016, near Puigcerda.

Re: Flip up helmet or open face with flip up visor?

I used a Caberg Duke flip up for a couple of years, cheap price at about £100 but did the job and still gets a good safety rating. I changed it for a Schuberth E1, due to the wind noise when I was out for longer days on the bike.

We once got fined £60 for having ...

Re: mousse can deflate?

I used to use mousses and they could shrink and soften a bit with age and mileage and they were always a very tight fit to get on in the first place (redbikejohn used to fit mine for me). Was the mousse big enough for the tyre or is the tyre maybe spinning on the rim?

Re: Photo chain link...

Link = 'Oxford Aqua' roll top bag, panniers, bike & water... Somewhere in the southern part of the Picos (I think it was between Riano and Guardo) in 2019. My old Honda CBF1000, with a silky smooth Fireblade derived engine but without the top end rush. https://i.ibb.co/KzM7Vtv/unnamed-15.jpg upl...
