Loweswater Gold

5/5

The best golden Real Ale since 'Dirty Tackle'. 

Served in the awesome 'Dog and Gun' in Keswick.

Slightly fruity taste, light colored like Lager. very tasty.

We walked from the town centre, around the lake to Cat Bells, High Spy, then down into Rosthwaite, bus back into Keswick, and straight to the 'Dog and Gun', Perfect refreshment after a day on the fells !

Dirty Tackle

5/5

Possibly the best Real Ale i've ever tasted. Brewed by Wychwood. Golden, slight citrus taste, not too bitter, ultimate refreshment.
One of six guest ales served at my local 'The Crown and Liver', Ewloe.
Trying 'Sunbeam' next week if there's any left !

Fitting a Rear Mudguard on a frame which has no Chainstay bridge

Problem

My new multipurpose Cyclocross bike* has no Chainstay bridge to mount the mudguard fender onto.
*Focus Mares Cross 2010 in my case, trying to fit SKS Bluemel 45mm trekking guards.

Solution

When you purchase a new bike you always get a set of front & rear reflectors. If you remove the reflector from the bracket you will find the bracket makes a perfect custom fit for the rear mudguards to fit into. Clamp it to the down tube near the bottom bracket, then use the provided reflector screw to screw through the mudguard (pre-drill first) into the bracket.
