Get a midgie head net too. They’re particularly vicious this year.

Mech hanger, spare brake pads?

Hated my vfr800. Soggy,heavy and unengaging. Preferred cbr6, rf900 and better commuter was 2001 blade.

The linked brakes were terrible and the rear caliper caught all the crud in winter. Chain adjuster seized with salt, rectifier went twice. Handling was awful. Ended up in the garage unloved for 2 years before i gave it away.

For balance…

Thanks for the info Whitestone, that’s really helpful.

That was one option, as was grinding the pedal axle to fit a spanner/ weld metal onto it. But all seemed radical and potential to knacker the cranks, so was looking for a back up plan. Or an excuse to buy new cranks…

I was starting to feel that 24mm axle, 100mm bb and 170 rear spacing seems to be “old standard”.

The heritage element is gimmicky to get folk interested. Plus they struggled to get FDA approval to sell it on the basis of health.

Surprised at the data fear given 23andme was founded by the wife of some Google big bod.

Of more concern is that you discover faulty genre mutations that have serious consequences not just for the testee, but for the whole family. Back up and support from these companies is bordering on non-existent. Expect to see NHS genetic services overrun by people unsure what the results mean.

So for example, your mum has the gene giving high chance of pre-senile dementia, which is hereditary and currently untreatable. Which continent you herald from isn’t quite as interesting. But you now might be able to start making care arrangements early…

Personally I’d rather ostrich.

Does admin need to go on an internet course, a customer services course, or just some quiet time to think about how they behave?

Ditto. Text says i need to log in for FGF, I did so and still has the same message after clearing browser, refreshing and signing in.

Her voice is outstanding. Some great remixes kicking about too.

In a similar vein, Freya Ridings is not dis-similar and on my Spotify heavy rotation alongside London Grammar.

Appearance and placement on any comparison site is influenced by they level of commission an insurance company pays the comparison site. As this is now where most people buy insurance they’ve a lot of power and insurer will look to pay more based on the comparison site’s potential to generate volume. That cost has to go somewhere so worth shopping about.

IIRC the FCA were requiring greater clarify and prominence of the change in premium to previous year when sending renewal information.

Atera rack has an option for extended straps for up to 4inch wheels.  Certainly miles easier to attach than my buzzrack, and lighter too.

However it doesn’t feel as solid so i put an extra strap round the BB to the rack which works.  The wheels have  sort out chocks for the space of the wheelbase rather than the tyre sitting in a channel.

Too expensive really,  but great for access to rear doors of the van.

There should be a new privacy notice that details what they do with the data and the legitimate interest they have to hold that.

IANAL but the “right to be forgotten” in GDPR appears harder to dismiss according to the info from my work’s Gdpr bods.

You’ll not get the br2250 wheelset in a 177 rear end – it’s only 190/197.

But br710 rim is the same with a 177 hub. Not many about so hope seems to fit the bill and i believe is upgradeable to other widths

Had the same issue recently

Vaseline on the fattystripper rim and warm soapy water usually works but didn’t.  Inner tube got one bead on but not the other.  Ended up with a tie down ratchet round the circumference held by hand (not ratcheted) and let it out as the air from the compressor comes in

Was also in Stirling and quite surprised with the audience dynamic. A lot older than i expected.

Into twin galaxies was bonkers. Thought it was quite telling only one of them did that last waterfall. He looked like a passenger on it too.

Scotland forcing the game.  Finn Russell arrogant as **** and centres that are inexperienced on international stage and should have been subbed very early.

Scotland set false expectations on meaningless autumn tests yet again.  looks like a battle with Italy for the spoon and that hurts.

Wales uppes their game massively from autumn tests and blitz worked a treat.

Peak STW.

Complain.

Flip an obvious situation around

victim blame.

Rode into the back of a car parked on a national road. Had my head down warming up for a TT. Scudded my face off rear window,  wheelbase shortened by a foot, frame that id spent months saving for was toast.

Then the three mile walk to civilisation ruined a set of cleats for good measure.

Not a mark on the frickin car!

Just to try to restore the STW credibility…

poached eggs, avocado and thick ham. Drizzled with dijon mayo and toasted bagel on the side.

They work ok if pressures are low and the wider tyre seems to give more notice and latitude when they start to slide.

Have multiple!

2000 blade chassis with engine that has a new gear clusters that jumps out of gear. Bodywork and exhaust killed in lowside.

2001 blade that was a track bike that i failed sorting electrics and body work to make it road legal/ track switchable. Must get back on this really…

A vfr800 that has seized brakes chain adjuster and a dead battery that has gone through multiple winters. Hateful handling bike… unloved.

Zx6 with a atarting issue.

Lack of time inclination, space and funds and bikes seem to work when i go in the garage!

I’ve got a full suss but the fat bike has become the only bike i use. Gets used for trail centres, proper mountains, occasional 65 mile round trip commute, bikepacking and everything in between. It copes well and compensates for my skill level!

Couldn’t get on with two different makes of them. i have an astygnatism and the lens settling after blinking was part of the issue but just didn’t get the clarity i have with specs, especially using monitor at work.

No i work in life insurance and it wouldn’t be considered to be extreme unless you’re doing Rampage.

Some companies will ask explicitly about mountain biking vat usually for income protection or fracture cover products.

Remember our the question is not clear and you are answering reasonably it will be looked upon in your favour. General insurance sculduggery is not allowed.

Liking the size of your sample.

I know one that had opportunities she wouldn’t otherwise have had being a promo girl.

It’s fake news from Lewis Hamilton to undermine Froome’s SPOTY bid…

you’re assuming the riders are the ones suing/taking action. what if a rider has sickness/critcal illness cover, a mortgage, and a family to feed, and now can’t work? they put in a claim, the insurance company look for someone to offset their expenditure.

Not accurate. Life and disability insurance will only look as to whether there has been accurate disclosure. Long term insurance will not ‘recover’ from a third party in the same way as some general insurance will.

Bez to the thread…

Ah never mind.

Rossi trying to get shot of the last of the Yamaha 2017 frames?! That looks like a proper oops.

Forlorn hope but one more championship for Vale would be good. Think this might be a season too far…

You could have just told him to put the bacon back.

Can we get some clarification? Was it back or streaky?

Never tried anything like this but slightly tempted.

What is the route? Fitness will need some work!

Slx long cage works with sunrace 11-50t

I’d say specialized.

But my spesh has been lying unloved since i got a fat bike

😆

Get yourself a bike, any bike, and a puppy. It won’t solve any of what’s gone before but will give so much happiness.

It’s because the project approval and budget process is too constraining teams have tried to create solutions locally.

User forms to capture inputs for a risk assessment, vba script to populate calculation spreadsheet that has metadata sheets to drive calcs that are extracted back to user form results. Had to be documented, versioned;, tested and backed up under End User Computing policy. But these solutions are now frowned upon…

Bit too gangsta for me.

Building access control is seen as a risk mitigation against data protection fines in our place along with clear desk policies.

Given impending fine levels from GDPR that is more of a financial justification that personal attack.

The waves in the opening scene looked cgi. Thanks to the ‘making of’ bit it turns out they weren’t using a drone but some nutter on a jetski.

Lights out, volume up and sat in awe at how they do it.

Fbf minion on the front is incredible compared to jumbo Jim. Also running 4.8 front and leaving 4.0 jj on the back at the moment. Mainly cos 4.8 doesn’t have enough chain clearance on the back…

Minions are mental expensive though. Could get a decent motorbike tyre for less!

c and b seen version

The screw might need replaced though

1989 specialized top. So old it’s almost retro cool. If it weren’t for the tool wearing it…
