  • Why hire a guide?

    Posted on December 18, 2014 by wheelist in Guiding.

    I’ve recently returned from a fabulous trip to Menorca, where I hired a local guide (Dídac Pujol) to take me out riding some of the island’s fabulous singletrack. It’s the second time I’ve ridden with Dídac as guide, and it got me to thinking about my own guiding here in Wales, what it is that […]

  • New rides on old bikes

    Posted on September 11, 2014 by wheelist in Bike Maintenance, Riding.

    I have too many bikes. I know that that statement shows blatant disregard for the n+1 rule*, but there’s only so much time in the day that can be spared for fettling, and the queue of bikes needing attention never seems to get shorter. But with winter coming, and my trusty cold-weather steed badly in […]

  • Shop Ride: Cader Idris.

    Posted on May 21, 2014 by wheelist in General Bike Stuff.

    One of the best things about working in a bike shop is being able to blow off the cobwebs after work with the guys you work with. One of the best things about working in a bike shop in North Wales is that the rides after work can be properly epic. Yesterday’s “Shop Ride” was […]

  • Planning a new commute.

    Posted on May 14, 2014 by wheelist in Mapping, Riding.

    I moved house recently, and a new house means a new commute. I love maps, so planning a commute is almost as much fun as riding it. More fun if you have to ride a really bad commute (technically it’s impossible to have a really bad commute by bicycle). There are some great tools for […]

  • Coaching at Coed y Brenin

    Posted on January 14, 2014 by wheelist in Coaching.

    2014 is starting out rather damp, but thankfully my first coaching session of the year was well-timed to take advantage of one of the few brief haituses that have occurred between the near-incessant downpours. Rob wanted to improve his confidence, especially on rocky descents and so, after some practice moving around the bike and riding […]

  • What came around went around.

    Posted on September 26, 2013 by wheelist in Coaching, Guiding, Riding.

    And so that was summer. It felt like one of those summers we had when we were kids – it went on for ages. Glorious golden days, with long hazy evenings, stretching out into seeming eternity. Due to the weather pattern of recent summers I expected it to finish at any moment, so spent lots […]

  • Summer.

    Posted on July 14, 2013 by wheelist in Coaching, Guiding, Riding.

    It’s hard to believe. It’s so long ago since it last happened I’d forgotten exactly what it was. It’s summer!!! Proper flipping summer!!!! The sun is hot and everything!!!!! And…(a big ‘And’)…it’s in Wales!!!!!! I seriously struggle to express just how beautiful Wales is when the sun is shining, when you’ve got mates around, and […]

  • Back up from down under.

    Posted on June 12, 2013 by wheelist in Guiding.

    It was a real pleasure to welcome Hamish back to Coed y Brenin today, after his coaching session with Wheelism last year. Hamish said he loved the trip so much last time that he thought he should bring his wife Jill to sample the delights of this little corner of heaven. Armed with a Beics […]

  • Spring is in the air (at last).

    Posted on April 13, 2013 by wheelist in Coaching.

    The snow is finally thawing, the temperatures are almost into double figures, and the daffodils are lining the roads as I ride through the Welsh countryside. It’s finally beginning to look like Spring is sprung. I’m not the only one feeling it either; it’s been a record Easter at Coed y Brenin, and lots of […]
