Binged on all series last time a PSA was put up here.
Cracking comedy

Sorry for your loss Northwind

Cheers for the advice.
‘High contrast settings’ was on.
Something I have never clicked on so no idea how that was switched on.
Something so simple yet made me think I had been hacked/ virus.
Thanks again for advice.

Just delivered, indeed smells lovely.
Time for that big long poo.

I’ve a free afternoon so can get on with looking at it.
Thanks for advice.
I’ve never worked out how to post a picture here.

This is the only mag I get now, love it when I get home and it’s on the dining table.
Time for a big poo and some ‘me’ time

RIP Michael

First of all.
Sorry for your loss. Just can’t imagine.
Writing things here has helped me immensely and hope it will be helpful to you aswell.
God Bless.

I’m in Berkshire, event is in Dunoon Scotland

Leave car in Theale, taxi to Reading station. Last train back is normally 1am taxi back to Theale.

Donated. Hope he recovers well.

I did it a couple of years ago and blew up at Cranleigh.
Unfinished business for me.
Eat and drink plenty, I now use Torq energy powder in my water and it has really helped with cramp.
But don’t go mad with products, just pack some jam sandwiches, fig rolls etc.
Stop at every food point even if you don’t think you need to.
Get a few longer rides in, 50 miles say over the next couple of months.
Don’t get too hung up on ‘what bike, what tyres’ etc, just ride what you have.
Enjoy it and remember a positive attitude gets us through most things.
Very important to get decent chamois bib shorts or whatever and chamois cream.

Private sale you have to lump it basically.
Trade sale I think you can reject it and then not use it at all until seller does something about it or get the dealer to repair.

We pmd a few times because we had similar things going on and we were meant to ride together.
RIP mate.
Genuinely heartbroken.
He gave me and my Mrs hope and encouragement.

Had a quick Ghost Ship 0% in the local and we spent the whole time commenting on how nice it was and finally found a decent pint that tastes like a normal pint

Cubist. You obviously apologised to the poor person in the bog standard 2 bed terrace at the low end of town for getting your frame back.
Putting people down and disgracefully lumping everyone in a poorer part of town as thieves.
Thankfully you have found that your assumptions are not true.
Good that you got your frame back.

coogan, cheers,thats my ti 456
need a lesson in how to upload photos!!

i have the same frame, no problems with shimano cranks fitted, but went for ( very expensive)raceface ones recently. no amount of refitting regreasing will stop the creaking! yes i have tried everything, the frame is an awesome though dont you think?

cinnamon girl, good luck with this epic adventure but watch out for those twigs/ leaves on the tracks!

after a lot of forum perusing i went for nobby nic 2.25 snakeskin up front and a racing ralph 2.25 snakeskin double defence on the rear. tubeless with stans sealant. superfast rolling on the back but with amazing climbing ability. pretty good allrounders

good to meet you today sam, (i was on the 456 ti) will catch up with you on a sat/ sun ride soon
have a good one tomorrow
