I had a bunch of possible themes lined up for this week’s column including the knock-on consumer and industry effects of WiggleCRC failing to find a buyer for anything more than the right to use its brand names. Another topic up for consideration was the current confusing multiplicity of different trail advocacy organizations – that reminds me of the ‘People’s Front of Judea’ scene from Monty Python’s Life Of Brian.
I could have waxed lyrical about finally finding a situation that a jacket I’ve been testing for months worked really well in. Or that you only recognize just how well tubeless tires work when you’re fixing an old school flat in a sleet storm at 10pm.
