The silver birch at the front of my house is 4-5 metres at a guess.

We had to take a dead Beech down recently, I may put a Cherry there in it’s place.

I load my shopping straight from the trolley into laundry baskets in the boot of my car. Makes in miles easier when you get home too.

This is my solution:

Very tempted by the Space Shuttle…

How about a tool board? I made a simple holder for my T handle Allen keys/wrenches, basically a small shelf with holes drilled in.

Up Helvellyn on Friday AM, on the hardtail, Seldom Seen proved leg destroying on the way down..

I have had cataracts done on a crow and a magpie by specialist avian vets somewhere near Portsmouth about 10-15 years ago for £1,000 each.

That’s a big bill for a crow..

My two (5 and 8) love Mario Wonders and Mario Kart. I’ve got Zelda TOTK, which is ace, Wrecked, pretty good, Doom and WRC which is too much of a simulator for me.

And a day time yin too.

Mid-week but technically my weekend:

We have a small Horse Chestnut tree in the back garden. Last year we had maybe 20 conkers, not a single one this year. :/

I wonder if it’s worth putting a protective film under the mounting foot?

@jhpbk I’ve messaged you

@cerrado-tu-ruido

Using bloke maths that’s money towards a new wheelset… ;)

I don’t suppose you’re looking to go Hyperglide are you @mashr

That’s what I have, the axle is 17mm and the inner diameter of those bearings is 15mm unfortunately.

But I’ll ping him a message and see what he says about axles ??

About time the big heavy, overpowered and over-tyred EVs start paying their way towards the road damage they’re almost certainly causing.

How heavy do you think they are? Not a patch compared to HGVs!

We didn’t check inside the kitchen cupboards because, well, it seemed a bit invasive. I wish we had, it always had a foisty smell. When we ripped the kitchen out a couple of years later the damp and mold behind it was pretty horrendous!

A colleague bought a RS4 recently (2014). Within a couple of weeks it was making a slight droning noise, he suspected a wheel bearing. The garage had it back under warranty, said it wasn’t the wheel bearing and changed all 4 discs and the pads (under warranty). Noise was still there, took it back again. It was a wheel bearing after all.

Last summer while I had the youngest on the Mac-Ride and my then 6 year old daughter on the tag along the chain snapped about 3 miles from home. I hadn’t bothered with the multi tool with it being a lap around the block. Faced with a long push home I started on my way.

It then occurred that my daughter could possibly power us along, at least on the flatter sections. I did feel a bit self conscious about not pedaling along while she did all the work…

I’ve been tubeless for over 10 years now, probably only needed to use a tube a few times in an those years. I still carry one though.

Pump, multi tool, tube, plugs and a sample tube of lube.

Not sure if it’s been said but keep an eye on the rising brake fluid, use a syringe to remove some if need be.

£££ doesn’t equal the best unfortunately.

I can’t remember the brand of my current ones but they had a RRP of ~£140 and the inner heel has blown to bits.  I can cover a lot of steps in my current job.

Probably back to DeWalt next.

@trail_rat the keys usually live in the car, however I was swapping racks about in a hurry… ?

Success! Scary how easy that was with a couple of hairpins. I feel I might have a new career in the making…

I’ll celebrate with a Guinness in a ropey glass..

I’ll have a go with a couple of hair pins ??

I’ve already missed out on a couple of beers in case I’m heading back tonight..

After a few years on full suspension going back to a HT was a bit jarring, I soon readjusted though. I mostly prefer the HT these days, although I do still enjoy a ride on the big bike now and again too.
