£1250 & £700 respectively.

What a chap.

Thanks for all of the responses :). I will drop people an email this evening.

@portlyone missed that thread. Perhaps I should repost with a female name ;-).

@Rob Jackson Cheers for the email and info!

If I was I would only go for the Slimone ;-).

Can you put a tyre in the washing machine when you are doing a load of your wife’s undies, or does it need to be a seperate bike components load?

Morecash, yep finding that! Working and studying at Derby University’s campus in buxton. Have found a nice place in Bakewell, hopefully that will work out.

New style osprey ones are good. Have a brand new one for sale ;-) – If your interested drop me an email daveagiles @ googlemail.com

I’ll keep that in mind!

Like the look of the sat ibiza. Will have to do some autotradering when I get in. Keep the ideas coming

Pleasure.

I have a spacer I machined that you can have. Send me an email with your address WL and I will send it over.

Had a brilliant time. Great practice on the Saturday and Sunday morning. Unfortunately crashed out and buckled my wheel at the end of the first stage, just before the finish :(. Gutted, ah well!

This was just milliseconds beforehand! https://www.rootsandrain.com/photos/562327

I have one I no longer need. Yours for £5 posted. Drop me an email if your interested.

Did mine with Coke. Was impressed it worked.

Don’t forget to tape up all the holes!

Good work!

Mine is perfect. 100mm left hand leaver if thats nay help.

If you have Sram shifter you could do the 9spd bodge with a shimano mech in the mean time?

STEP AWAY FROM THE INTERNET, YOU WILL REGRET IT…

Possibly the scariest website I have ever looked at.

(Free space that is) not sure about how they all compare if you pay for space.

Dropbox and google are good. Copy works well as well and also has much more space. I have emailed you a link.

Cheers guys. Just ordered one.

As long as it wasn’t more than that I will be fine.

Issue with having short legs!

Distance: 8603.2km
Time: 409h 36m
Elev Gain: 76,047m
Rides: 218

Didn’t realise I had spent that long on the bike. Worrying!

Comfy all the way. Good luck, it’s a great ride.

It’s fairly rough and feels rougher after 100 miles!

Rather you than me now the conditions have changed, good wind direction though on Sat.

Its going to take hours to get the vomit out of my keyboard. Thanks.

Generally most people were great overtaking. Did have one chap shout on-your-left, whilst I was on the left of the single track and then proceed to ride into the back of me.

Cracking event. Was racing the 12 hour solo. Had to pull out after 8 hours though. Gutting as I was starting to work my way up the leader board.

Hopefully next year!

Most sane Daily Mail article I have read in a while.

In brief. Mum and child go to park. Child climbs tree. Child says she is stuck. Mum thinks she is joking, takes a few photos. Child gets upset and really is stuck. Mum calls services to rescue her. Child lifted to safety by firemen. The End.

Not sure I see anything wrong with things as they are laid out in the article. 999 for the fire-brigade beats 999 for an ambulance when she tries to climb down/ panics and jumps.

Children have been climbing trees for years. I certainly did. Sometimes it went wrong. Thankfully we were always able to sort ourselves out.

As for paying for it, she already has. Well as long as she pays her council tax. Perhaps that the headline we will see next week. Tax dodging mum takes advantage of fire service to rescue child.

At least it wasn’t a cat…

Anyone got a pack to hand that could look how long it will keep for?

Loop-the-loop some serious skills there.

Edit: Photo now the right way up :)

Have you tried Macdropany http://www.zibity.com/macdropany. Planning on giving it a go later on today. It may solve your problem with dropbox?

Also, crashpan works for me. Took a long while to load everything up there, but quiet happily ticks over now. Maybe needs reconfiguring?

My yahoo was used to send spam yesterday. Account is now deleted.

If someone at Microsoft has got enough time to sit around and watch me in my living room, then they are more than welcome to do so. It is not like it is going to be broadcast live on the net.

I haven’t got anything to hide, it really doesn’t bother me. But that is just me…

Filling the frame with Coke worked for me. Left it to soak overnight. Came free easy in the morning.

Thanks citizeninsane I have dropped him an email to see if he is able to produce something.

Did you get wiper seals off of ebay as well?

I did it to fit my gravity dropper cable. Im still alive. Ish.

Put one on last weekend. Same as above really, running with an advantage up front.

Only felt sketchy on some wet roots, other than that perfect.

I rode the wiggle ups and downs on Saturday. Great event, really well organised and was nice to see a different area of the country.

I didn’t set out to race everyone else, I just wanted to see how fast I could cover the 50km distance. Which, as far as I am aware, is the idea behind having timing chips on all of the riders (that and being able to see how many are missing). There wasn’t much antisocial overtaking (at least not on my part anyway).

It did make me realised two things though. (1) I would like to enter a race and (2) overtaking people is immensely satisfying.
