		<title>﻿﻿Otesha (Aus): Cycling for Sustainability trivia and dinner night</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The Otesha Project (Australia): Cycling for Sustainability is a not-for-profit organisation that offers bicycle tours and educational programs to engage youth about sustainable consumption. Using theatre, multimedia, and interactive workshops, Otesha (Aust.)’s creative focus provides a unique approach to understanding environmental and social justice issues, enabling youth to become role models and sustainability advocates.

		<title>Electra Ticino</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Beautiful doesn&#8217;t begin to describe this bike.
Built with a selection of custom built retro styled components, polished until they glow, and finished with fine details like hammered alloy fenders and stainless cable housing, this is a bike for bike lovers.
Built with Electra&#8217;s Flat Foot Technology which allows for proper leg extension without having the saddle so high you can&#8217;t get a foot down this is a great bike for the casual rider who wants the elegance on a European bike with a unique  style on their ride.

		<title>ISO Taper Bottom Brackets</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For a while we&#8217;ve been looking for good quality ISO taper bottom brackets which are more affordable then a Phil, not that there is anything wrong with Phil Wood they do make the best of the best, but we know not everyone can afford one.
Well dust off your old Stronglight or Sugino 75 cranks at last we&#8217;ve found something that measures up. The Miche Primato and Primato Evolight bottom brackets.
The Primato uses flange-less cups so it is excellent for  micro chainline adjustment (just like a Phil)  and so will require ...]]></description>

		<title>Bio-degradable lubes and grease</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Hello out there! We ride. We ride for transport, fitness and convenience but let&#8217;s not forget the massive environmental benefits of cycling. Yay! That&#8217;s what motivates the crew in the UK who make Green Oil. It&#8217;s a clean, green, quiet running machine!
Up until now we depended on the petro-chemical industry for chain lube and degreasers. Well not anymore!
We are now stocking Green Oil plant based, 100% petro-chemical free, 100% Palm oil free chain cleaner, lubes and grease. Ok so it&#8217;s made in the UK and carries with it a fair ...]]></description>

		<title>The Radbot Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[


As the darker months continue, we&#8217;ve put a lot of energy into researching and testing bike lights. In this post, Lewis reviews the RadBot 1000 rear light. We&#8217;ve got the Radbot 1000 and the Radbot 500 available in the shop.
I&#8217;ve been using the Smart brand light in many revisions over the last 10 years. The latest version sold as the Planet Bike Superflash has a new competitor: The Portland Design Works Radbot.
Radbot is available in 1/2 Watt and 1 Watt versions. We&#8217;re all so used to the 1/2 Watt LED ...]]></description>
