    The Dutch planners involved at the beginning of the project recommended seperating the bike lanes and the trams, it appears this was ignored by TIE. The Section at Haymarket force cyclists to cross the tramlines at an acute angle, contrary to the advise given to cyclists. Hopefully this legal action will force the council to rethink cycle infrastructure.

    You could also go to the pentlandhills.org and download their map which will show you the paths. They also do a cyclist version of the map giving the most and least suitable cycling paths, which you can pick up at their information centres.

    Is the cable exposed in it’s run, if so use this to isolate the shifter. If you pull the cable outward does the problem still occur? Then it’s not the shifter.
    Could be cable stretch, try re-indexing it. See park tools website if your unsure how to.

    The charcoal/grey vXI’s on five tens website have the smooth bit under the ball of the foot and it’s mentioned in the blurb. And the two elements versions do as well.

    I agree with Ernies idea that it should be a significant majority that decide either way.
    I also think that votes like this should have a mininimum turnout 60% and 60% for a result to be binding.
    Though the Australian system of mandatory voting is also looking appealing to stop the apathy in general elections.

    Don’t know about bonsai, but if you start posting photos of your spiders next to tiny trees you will really freak people out. Looks forward to photos of spiders next to perfectly formed tiny trees.

    Last year it was £12 for a mini-bus.
    THough looking at the website it seems to have changed.

    Glentress has several parking options. The trail head is at Glentress Peel visitor centre.

    Car Parking Charges:

    £2 for 1 hour – perfect if you’re stopping off for some food and refreshments in the café.
    £5 per day (or £3.50 for 3 hours). This applies to all car parks at this location – Glentress Peel (over 100 spaces), Falla Brae, Buzzards Nest and our two overflow car parks.
    You can pay car park charges by credit or debit card (with chip and pin) in the two Glentress Peel car parks and the Buzzard’s Nest car park. If you prefer to pay by cash the machines accept all denomination coins but do not accept notes.

    I’m wondering if there’s a commercial/sponsorship reason, considering the dispensation to allow for a single official video by a sponsoring brand…… No, that couldn’t be it.
    This. It’s all about controlling the media coming out of events.

    How long has the lady neighbour been in a relationship with the back door burgler?
    Is he new on the scene or long term?
    If new, a word with the lady might work. Otherwise get the police involved would be my course of action.

    MTG you should speak Ben @ Kinectics cycles. He modified a Rolhoff hub for TJ to fit in his tandem.
    If I remember right it involved spacing out the the hub rather than spacing in the frame. The advantage would be that you could fit a standard tandem hub if you wanted to at a later date.

    At the top of the Currie Kirk road, the road bears right and another turns left to the Farm at Easter Kinleith.
    Straight ahead is a track that is muddy at first with a couple of monstrous puddles.
    Continuing up there is woodland on the right which has “Pistachio way” running through it.
    Grid Ref NT 187 667 is the start.

    Surely th purpose of any internet discussion is for individuals to be able to counter one anothers arguments with what you describe as critical thinking, I havent read your posted article because I prefer to counter any argument you Grum can put forward without the need to copy and paste a received view. opinion or theory.

    As much as Gove worries me (I’m a teacher), fair play to him for sending his daughter to a state comprehensive (albeit a C of E selective one).

    Before you start praising that twerp, may I suggest a bit of background research !
