Shimano spd’s M161 (I think )they get tawled through the mud most weekends
then 130 miles a week commuting on the road bike
3 years old and still going strong cant see me changing them any time soon
think they were around £90 at the time

Oh dear I was hoping i could just getaway with swapping the bearings for something a bit more durable
another expense i could do without 😥

I live in Scotland
I have a vote

Not much out there at that price Sports Direct have these http://www.sportsdirect.com/muddyfox-tour-tbs100-mens-cycling-shoes-144018?colcode=14401891 at £29.99

Thinking of you and yours ,wishing you every success in beating this

having a few friends round the bar opens shortly 😆

off 25th and the 1st ..the joys of retail 🙄

thats a bit ambitious for a first ride i was out the saddle for around three weeks no problems and everything healed quite quickly never received any advice on a pre op “ham shank” i just arrived shaved shrivelled and terrified …surgeon strolled in whistling “the first cut is the deepest” the joker… oh how we laughed..I didnt laugh ,best of luck im sure someone will be along shortly with no end of horror stories

have ridden singlespeed for the past 7 years I did buy a carbon full suss in the summer 30 gears and all that
spent a few weeks flat on my arse as i struggled to get used to the gears again now i quite enjoy it but I still enjoy the S/S the simplicity of of one gear is a good thing i don’t struggle to much on the hills i run 32/18
i also commute 130 miles a week on a S/S road bike bit of a Gluton for punishment ….and yeah the facial hairs coming on a treat x

used the Aldi ones last winter on my daily commute they were fine
do get wet but hold the heat think they were around £4.99

Judy’s Priest

10-15 years there wont much left on the high street

I dislike mess in the kitchen so the dishes are done after meal times usually by me
I do find it kinda therapeutic ,the kids will pitch in when nagged ….

out on the bike probably the best thing you can do right now
hope you find the perspective your looking for

Yep same here youngest into P1 middle into P6 and firstborn into 3rd year all quite here
although due to end soon as the youngest is only in till 12:15 today
looking forward to midweek days off when I wont need to be back in the house for them till 3pm
woo hoo

Thought about the BT Infinity but no fibre optic due here for a while (East Ayrshire)so all the could offer was Freeview so back to the signal issue ,Yep Sky certainly don’t seem to be tripping over themselfs to hold onto customers i imagine a lot will be shifting to BT with the new sports offer… anyways looks like Freesat it is either through Sky or new box

been through all the offers never really had to pay full whack for it until recently all there offering us now is half price broadband didnt realise they done Freesat i know i can cancel the Sky keep the box and get terrestrial channels but there is a monthly £10.25 charge to use the record feature which i kinda like for series link awkward start time programmes etc ….hhmmm thought new box was my only avenue

Have a look at this I’ve had one for 2 months and love it took a bit of getting used to gears after 5 years of single speed hardtailness …climbs brilliantly ,lightweight easy to lock out suspension for road use and its shiny !! and within budget buy it through Quidco and get 2% back
Ghost Lector 5700

Attention seeking snob best ignored

26 mile round trip on a single speed road bike mostly B roads
dont encounter much traffic do this 5 days a week all year
It can at times be a grind but most of the time its the highlight of my day
arrive home stress free …love it

I have a Ghost lector 5700 carbon 2011 model love its the first full suss Ive owned
always been hardtail and the last 5 years on a steel single speed
just fancied a change great reviews plus great price won me over
it has to be the best bike i have ever ridden lose nothing on the climbs
a gain a load of confidence on the descents just has a great feel to it
cant fault that GHerman engineering

Ours was around a £800
village hall family done the catering,wife’s cousin had a mobile disco it was a brilliant party
no honeymoon as we were doing up our first flat funnily enough had our 20th anniversary party
in the same place last year cost was around the same,bottom line is it can be as expensive as you want it to
be it’s all about personel choice have a friend whose getting married next year and they have the whole wedding planner,cake tasting,floral selection ,band auditions etc think the costs are crippling them !!

48 have ridden hardtails for the best part of 20 years i’ve just purchased my first full suss
and the first bike with more than one gear for 5 years ….

That’s great I’ll get back onto them glad to hear there still there

Never had high expectations and i havent been disappointed … just gone with the flow
made some good choices also made a few howlers but im very happy with life Im married
have three great kids nice home and a job that pays the bills
dont waste time dwelling on what might have been
if your unhappy with your lot do something to change it
life’s too short

seems like a decent guy and thats a great gesture,what exactly is the problem with some
people??
he’s signed for a new club of course the press are going to be interested he’s donating his wages to charity
fantastic well done, regardless of your thoughts on the man I cant see anything wrong in that move
but the usual whinge moan bitchiness starts FFS its friday theres bigger things to worry about than this
have a word with yourselfs

Horses for courses innit,never thought about having kids in my 20’s but things change
im 48 now and we have three (13,9 & 4) yep they turn your world upside down but you just adapt
we still have a social life we still ride bikes we have friends who have no kids I dont feel there lives are
way more exciting than ours and vice versa …its personnel choice

Helmet cam and back issues of Boneshaker mag im a happy chap

Extension to the front giving the kids some extra space in there bedrooms plans done just need a bit more£’s
then the work starts

esselgruntfuttock used to have the exact same Bultaco sherpa

[/url]

Wheelie for as long as I would like

Decent bunny hop

Smallish gap jump

Manual
yep CHL me too
and also lose the fear on drops offs
and a trip to Moab is on the list for me

My kids have turned their backs on the X factor this year,think its had its day
and my wife never watches the soaps but does do strictly come dancing & kids are mostly watching the Disney channel although the oldest (13) is obsessed with 16 and pregnant which is a bit worrying
I Sky+ anything that clashes and watch it later

initially i thought it was Saul but a couple of rewinds on the sky plus it is Abu Nazir I thought what he said was “look at us” wife was convinced he said “what a mess” had to put the subtitles on to catch what he actually said…… “Nicholas”
actually Carrie is beginning to get on my wick in this series and also agree that Estes and Saul have something to hide

I pure love the bevvy

Teenage girl – Apple she’ll love it, Kindle or Nexus she’ll probably be fine but wish she’d got the apple and Dad’s a bit tight.

Ha too right …the Nexus is looking good for the £’s

Really saddened to see Grampian police’s involvement in this,certainly didn’t look impartial
Trump is a tyrant with a flock of seagulls hairdo who has the cheek to refer to peoples homes as an eyesore!!
his bullying tactics are well known were the SNP’s to blinkered with the cash to see what was going on ?
shame on you Alex Salmond youve done the party a diservice on this matter

Smashing pics ,have brightened up my day
Cheers

couldn’t care less what Nike do
if i like the look of something and the price is right im buying it
actually theres a Nike Air Max 90 PRM Vintage Infrared getting re-released
early next year and Nike’s continued support for drug cheats aint going to
sway my purchase

Yep the trails sure get busy when the sun comes out

13 miles each way 5 days a week …best part of my day
wakes me up on the way there winds me down on the way home
Love it
