In case you missed the fun and games that was our Periscope live broadcast of Fresh Goods Friday on er.. Friday.. Here’s an edited version of the part where Barney and Chipps decided to eat stuff that they really shouldn’t have, live on camera.
The background to this was laid down in the previous week’s #FGF when Barney reported that the ingredients of the Wickens and Soderstrom tyres sealant were so benign that it was actually edible. This, it transpires, is not actually the case. Unfortunately for Barney and Chipps the clarifying phone call from the manufacturer didn’t occur until 10 minutes AFTER this video was shot.
The video starts appropriately enough with both of your favourite Singletrack muppets trying out the new Pizza Margherita flavoured energy gel from Clif. They then move on to more mechanical fluids.
Both Barney and Chipps are currently both fine*, in case you were worried.
If you don’t yet follow us on Periscope (The live broadcasting app from Twitter) then you can do so simply by following us on Twitter or by downloading the Periscope App on your phone (iOS only at present).
The ropeyness of the video is down to the fact Periscope is a portrait only broadcasting app at the moment and so we had to crop the footage to make it watchable.
The moral is of course, don’t trust ‘Someoneontheinternet’ when they say something is edible…
While we are here, why not grab a 25% off sub to Singletrack over on our Facebook Page now. Offer ends on Tuesday.
*for a given value of ‘fine’.

I imagine you were well sealed after that
Brilliant, forget Morecambe and wise at Christmas, that would be way better.
So as a followup, would the Pizza Gel work as tubeless sealant? In an emergency obviously. May need testing out of doors, nowhere near any painted walls.
“Could be worse” – not the most resounding endorsement ever!!
So the question is, can they still fart?
GrahamS, they haven’t been witnessed to fart audibly in the office since. I’ll let you make up your own mind on that one.
