    Keep an eye on here also. You can input the details of your stolen bikes.

    I’m still looking for mine nearly a year on 🙁

    Morzine – Pila – Garda – Solden – Innsbruck – Leogang

    Nice!

    Probably try to avoid driving – were only planning for a long week end.

    I presume transfers (with bikes) are available from munich ?

    I regularly fly Easyjet to Edinburgh from Munich, easy transfer with the Flix bus, but you can also ryanair to Memmingen.

    Does any body fly from the North of England to any of these places? We’re (I shall be accompanying Rockhopper) struggling to find a route to Soelden which doesn’t take the best part of a day ;-). At this rate we’ll be heading back to Morzine, again (nothing wrong with Morzine – just fancied a change)

    For the man with the larger thigh – Levis 541 athletic taper fit. they’ve got a bit of stretch in them too. Waist size seems to be way off (I’m a 38 usually and ended up with a 36) so go and try some on!

    @DezB – mine too – foam pads came off and now straps don’t stay in the retaining thing. Also go pro mount in top snapped last night when i was putting light on

    Probably easier \ better to go through your retailer

    Even if its over a year since I bought it?

    Cheers – I was looking on the main website. I presume Velobrands are the importer?

    “Either keep it in the lodge or don’t bother would be my advice”

    It will probably be a quick breakfast time bash before the rest of the family are up and about. Think I’ll give it a go anyway…..

    Ok… I’m used to big local hills…. was concerned that it might be too flat? Should make a nice change i suppose. Agree about the mayhem…. Usually take my bike when we go to whinfell to ‘escape’. First time at sherwood.

    “The sealant has separated into an almost clear runny fluid and the rest into a pool of rubber at the bottom of the tyre.”

    I had the very same thing recently with some UBER tyre matrix sealant. When I went to swap tyres recently the sealant had separated into a thin watery substance and balls of sludge stuck to the inside of the tyre. Spoke to uber about it – they hadnt come across this before but were going to look into it.

    I had a Magic Mary (from CRC) last summer with a very noticeable bulge on one sidewall. Sent back to CRC and got a replacement.

    Got a pair of Cane Creeks somewhere.

    Is it OK to put them on 780 wide riser bars? 🙂

    Or a Bird Aeris? Always happy to simplify a problem. You can thank me later.

    He can’t get an Aeris. We ride together and I have one!
    And besides, he’s just not cool enough… 8)

    how bad is Coventry

    Its not that bad TBH. Spent 2 years at Poly there back in the late eighties. Some areas were a bit run-down. City centre is architecturally ‘interesting’, – a lot of post-war concrete. Great night out back then – Dog and trumpet, Tic-Toc etc (so much so I didnt get my degree 😕 )

    I gather you don’t have a kitchen with a stone floor then?

    No, but we have tiles in some areas… I quite like the cold feeling on my feet!

    There might be a sticking point as Mrs has noticed it’s a 0% purchase card and she’s seen a fiat 500 she likes.

    Who’s wearing the trousers at this point.
    She’s got a car already.
    Cant go camping with a 500.

    Not so much a song, but I used to recount the ‘I like cider’ ditty to them… they used to piss themselves.

    I like cider
    Cider makes me fart
    when i fart, i smell
    when i smell, people give me money to go away
    with that money, i buy cider
    I like cider
    (repeat)

    Needs to be said with a really bad west country accent 😀

    Try putting a new battery in (plenty around on ebay and amazon)… I did it on my daughters 5 and it made a massive difference. fairly easy to do too.

    OP – you’re overthinking it.
    Just buy the prettiest one – you’re going to have to look at it for the next 14 years! 😉

    Why all the Hunter-hating?

    I’ve had mine 32 years and apart from looking not-quite-so-shiny they still perform as they did when I bought them. i.e they’re comfy and keep water out.

    Thought we’d discussed this…..
    If you get a bike that colour you’ll have to find a new riding buddy (carbon or not)!

    Bird seems interesting.

    Go and have a look… at least have a look on the website. I loved the fact that you can pick and choose individual components and the service from Dan and Ben is first class.

    I had a Capra and loved it….. Bird aeris 145 is better!

    We had a Victoria Plum Bathroom installed – went cheap on the furniture (Bath panel, cistern cupboard, vanity unit and wall mounted cupboard). BIG mistake, 6 months later the veneer was peeling off pretty much all the panels. Fully refunded for all the furniture, though.

    Edit:

    This one – avoid!
    Looks like theyve changed the name of it too – was called Drift Essen.
