I would recommend getting a folding bike that could travel in the cab with you. The spray that your thundering jugnraut kicks up will do serious damage to the drive train of a good multi-geared bike.I was involv ed in club cycling during my youth and would say have a bike with car type valves and use an air-line to blow them up to the the PSI stated on the side wall of the tyres,you wont get there with a bike pump.We all know about rolling resistance ,reduce that and your bike will go a whole lot easier.

I bought a stirrup pump to inflate my 700 rhino skins, the trouble is by the time I reach 90psi I am too knackered to pedal it :stuck_out_tongue:

A few years ago and I was parked at Roye for the weekend with a Denby driver, we arranged to go down into Roye for a Sunday dinner drink, he had a Scania topline and he pulled out a full size road bike from the top bunk. I walked there and it took me 30 minutes :exclamation:

why didn’t you ask for a backie and got on the back :question: :question: :unamused: :wink: :laughing:

I used to carry a push rod around with me, its a great way of seeing things & keeping a bit of fitness up.

I carried 1 round here for a while too but the road spray just kept siezing everything up, I suppose a fixed gear bike would be the answer.

that was hard to master.one time this lad said whoose is the BMX. mine i replied, i could do all sorts of tricks on them(he said)
get these two pallets off and you can have a go.By this time his mates was in on the act, i got the bike out and on he jumped.
Wallop!!! he fell off. He had,nt seen the small gear box i,d fitted into the handlebars. his boss caught him and laughted his
head off. He said it was about time he come down a peg. after that on the delivery notes it said please send driver with funny
bike. the boss made him have a few trys while i had a coffee. great fun he always fell off.
