Junky, cake’s good. I’ve no problem with cake, me.

Is that your forearm?
If it is, you’ve got Popeye bulges. :lol:

My cold seems to have eased off today, things are looking up.
Don’t think I’ll be riding Dalbeattie on Friday, I’ll save my legs for Sunday.

11-36 XT cassette, a new chain and an old 9 speed XT rear mech fitted.
Check.
Conti Hard shells off, Schwalbe Marathons on.
Check.
Now, about this cold I’ve picked up :? Fingers crossed it’s gone on Friday.

Best of luck to you. As above, kick its arse again.

I’m game for Dalbeattie, but I’ll not get there before 1pm. Google Maps is saying 182 miles, 3hours 15mins.

I’m now hoping that this wheezy cough I’ve started with today isn’t manflu.
:?

Mmmmmmm, cake.

I was thinking the same as njee, p-clip with the bolt straight through.
Edit, if you’re zip tying slide bolts to a frame, it’ll make a mess of the paint.

A nice, reasonably priced bit of kit.

Well, thanks a bunch, that’s cost me £137.99.

I’ve been to pick up our 7 year old nephew’s new Frog bike this morning. He’s getting dropped off at ours on Friday, so I’m hoping he’ll want to go for a spin Friday afternoon. :-)
I’m starting work on Saturday. :?

throwing some shite food to that dog

This^
And what’s with the hanky round his neck?

OP, I’ve no experience of Hull, but as you’re in the area, be sure to go over the Humber bridge.

Edit: If you take your bike, you could even cycle across.

Great news, John.
Nice fish!

Yep, enjoyed that. Switched it on when I first saw your post.

Cheers Flashy

Our club motto is ride bikes, drink beer, eat cake.
The cake’s consumed post ride, with the beer, though.

Before you restart work, John, come on the touring weekend in D & G, you can keep me and Ton company at the back.

Good luck with the job search. :wink:

Do you know how the helmetless one is getting to Newton Stewart?

Tandem?

Be aware though, tests from arms aren’t as “up to date” as fingertip ones.
I do my fasting tests from my forearms, but when there’s active bolus insulin kicking about, fingertips.

No doubt about it, he had “it”.

They were quality. And lightweight, as you said above.

Bugger, they didn’t fit.
The 25% discount offer has ended. :?
However, the nice man said if I order some bigger ones, he’d put the discount through for me, in store.
Nice fish!

Pictonroad – that’s not your cat…

It’s one of those chameleon cats, even closes its eyes when its sat against a black background. Clever pussy. 8)

Joey and Archie, chillin’.

Mudhugger.

Bonesetter, thanks for the write up, you’ve got me hoping they fit me.
:-)

We’ve been on Plusnet for about 15 months. No problems at all.

All of what’s been said above, but especially this bit.

Important- get some friends onside and educated- he’ll want to have a couple of good friends that’ll know when he’s hypo and can jump in.

I was diagnosed type 1 in 1990, at the tender age of 30. I’m still learning.
If he’s offered a DAFNE course, take it.

I’ve just reserved some to try at Halfords.
If they fit me, I’ll be taking advantage of their “Save 25% on shoes when you buy a pair of pedals” offer.

What? So I’ll have to go slow down ’em as well? :?

Thanks SF, easy it is, then.

Sorry, Ton, someone had to.
Marathons will have to do me.

It looks like I’ll have to start getting some miles in. :oops:

Can I be the first to ask, what tyres? :-)
