most boring = fishing (its been on eurosport so its a sport)
must of the 'game' type sports golf, darts etc are dull but a final of a big competition can be pretty exciting. Horse racing is crap unless your at the track and betting, drinking and admiring the fillies. 8)

I just use me middle finger, levers/shifters in conventional position. Juicy 7s adjusted right in close to the bars, and I have little hands -dunnno if that makes any difference

Not buying a new bike for a year- Ton's going to have loadsa spare cash innit 😉

I like the idea of having the signs giving time, rather than distance. i.e town centre 7mins instead of town centre 1 1/2 miles. I think this will encourage people to use bikes for quick and short journeys.
good film too
EDIT Ive burnt me tea watching it 👿

toasted cinnamon and raisin bagel, pot o' tea

Votes posted here- for both of 'our' guys

The 'strange one' seems to be able to whiz about in his little workshop quite quickly for someone who has trouble walking

so have we found out where the nut-job gets his frames from yet?

just unplug it, pilot wont light, gas valve will close

so Mandy's unelected? Much like the rest of the house of Lords then (at least until recently) much beloved of Flashy and his ilk.
Big house in the country? few thousand acres? ancestor wiped Henry V111's arse? come and run the country!

Got pretty much the same setup as teetosugars, but with the newer cartridge pads, no probs, you need to keep on top of them, keep them adjusted etc. but its easy. Work fine, if youvegot pannoiers etc you might want discs but for rider + bike I think they're fine.
Shimano mini v were shi7e in my opinion

on one used to do them cheap, maybe they still do?

get hold of a bearing/gear puller and use that to pull the crank off the BB. (friendly local garage/engineering shop may have one?)

the crowds of smokers who gather in the entrance to shops/pubs, so you have to pass through the smelly ****ts to get in/out. 😈

Litterists 👿

Barnard Castle (co. Durham) More mud, had a bit of a nightmare last weekend in the mud, so need to go back to it rather than not riding when its muddy.

Yep its a post-industrial wasteland up here, I wouldn't bother coming! 🙂
I've got the whippets in training for this ride too 😉

Im thinking cross bike with road tyres, nice low gears and light enough for climbing

I like!

The Jam, seen Style Council/Weller loads, but never saw The Jam. Others would be The Clash and Pink Floyd, and The Beatles

I agree with oganic, a lot of hard work for little reward. Either too bitter, too dry, or you get sticky juice down your front!
Orange=fruit Fail

could be the indicator switch. Had a similar problem on a couple of different cars and both times it was the switch assembley thingy getting worn and doing its own thing

NECCL round5 Stockton for me on Sunday. I predict mud 🙄

I never buy the mag, just have a look at it in Smiths, so Ive payed 15 nicker for the digital thingy- seems pretty resonable to me

I think its kaesae whos having a bit of luck with the rising crime rate, judging by his ability to come across frames so regularly, specially that one with the angle grinder scar on it!

Cant see the problem, would look cool with either all black bits – bars stem seat pin saddle grips, or even better with all white bits. Just dont add any more pink!

TK to the Maxx is your friend for inexpensive (i.e. good stuff sold cheaply) fleeces.
'Cheap' fleeces tend to have poor cut/crap zips

Sting was last relevant to music when? early 80's? since then he's churned out rehashes of 'classic' 500 year old lute music.
Not so unlike Mr Cowel then. Tho I know who I'd watch on a saturday night for a bit of 'light entertainment'

sorted the recycling out for tomorrow and had a nice little snooze

makes it more comfortable when the cable is under the bar tape

Im sure the £45million wouldn't have changed your lifestyle anyway Flash

I would like to give Danni a 'special' hug to help ease her pain 8) 😳 😀

in my opinion its a good game if Alex rants/raves/spits his dummy out

called into a couple of local shops, no-one had one and didnt seem interested in getting one. As above looked on line-no joy, so no I didnt get one 🙁 If you spot one let me know.
I rigged a makeshift affair up using a strap off another bag, but I liked the little whistle.

worth watching MOTD later then, Alex about to explode with rage, kicking drinks bottles, screaming at the 4th official and insulting the ref no doubt. Then he'll send that spanish bloke to talk to the press! 😆

that Ben Spees (Spies?) seems to be doing pretty well

nice easy ride from Durham is on the Lanchester valley way/walk, from Bearpark upto Consett. Few other railways etc that you can use to get to more interesting places. Most offroad in and around the city is a bit cheeky

shes got all weekend to make it up to you 😉

Sorry to hear of your news John, I lost my Dad in similar circumstances to yours (mam died 12 years ago) and you'll realise that they are at peace, and out of their pain and suffering. That realisation was a great comfort to me. Take some time for yourself now, take care.

I got a pair of oakley m-frames with a prescription lens 3 or so years ago, great but **** expensive £300+ if my memory serves…
