My good friends Julian & Charlotte have recently had most of their bicycles stolen.

Please check the link out and help in any way you can – one way would be always buying a second hand bike from a reputable source to kill bike theft trade.
These for the most part aren’t off the peg bikes – these are hand built custom spec kit. Stuff people love. Bikes that people have planned, designed and put together over a long time period. Serious fucking bicycle love.
If you have liked one damn word I have posted here this year please pass on the link above in any way you can, it would be much appreciated.
For me, I rode with Julian from Land’s End to John o’ Groats in six days, her riding the first bike in the link all the way, sometimes from sunup to sundown.
We rode an average 150 miles per day. I’ve still got the bike I rode that on. Julian’s has been stolen. Please pass the link on again to try and find this and other equally honourable and well loved machines.
Here it is again. Keep posting it:
