What is going too fast over speed bumps ,surely if it a 30 limit you should be able to safely go over them at 30 .Much the same as if they want you to do 20 there should be a 20 limit placed and speed bumps placed you can go over at 20. (often wondered if you went over a speed bump at the allowed speed and damaged your car if you would have a claim against the council ?)
Is it not just as simple as it’s all went tits up whilst he is at the helm and as such he is getting all the flak for it.the fact that he was not personnally voted in gives people the moral high ground in that they did not vote for him. IMO
It’s okay saying follow the servicing guide, but no other fork manufacturer has such a ridiculous service interval. If it was not so ridiculous you would not have such a long list of people complaining about stanchion wear. IMO
They reckon at his trial when he was stressed his lawyer suggested that night he should watch a DVD ,possibly get Aladin ,to which Jackson replied is that not what got me into this mess.

Looks good when new but I would not pay extra for it or get it at the risk of reliability (i.e.if it was possible they were not as strong as unpainted wheels)
Rudeboy I am not getting into a longwinded argument on this one (been there before on this forum) but how much experience has a London boy had on singletrack roads (driving or cycling)?
**** even TJ sees the point on this one.
Surely if it was new it would have been taken out of its packaging (whilst you were there).I had a company sell me an ex display cooker once and I rejected it as all the customers in the shop had messed about with it. If you have paid for a new machine you should have got a new machine, If you are not happy with discount offered tell them to get you a new machine.Do not accept their crap
Not reading all that but as a car driver and cyclist is the OP meant to sit behind the cyclist for however long the road is (20 miles say). I also assume a lot of people on here are maybe not too familiar with single track roads so do not appreciate the etiquette (my mother lives on Lewis so I have plenty experience). When touring (in car)I stopped at passing places to let traffic behind me pass as I was admiring the scenery and not in a rush (but that is not to say the locals may want to go somewhere, work maybe) and you always got a pleasant toot or wave as they also appreciated that I was sightseeing.So some of you may need to get off your high horse (bike) and see the argument from the other side
I was in a shop in Penicuick and paid for stuff with my card which was put in the chip and pin machine and i put in my code (sale went through), the guy then put it through a reader (the thing at the side of the till you swipe the card through).While I was driving home it occured to me that any other shop I have been in they only ever used one or the other which then got me wondering if the reader was maybe linked to a laptop or something under the counter. Never found out if it was a con as I phoned the bank and they sent me out a new card.
If its a bit of a letdown could you not get a good mate to give you a good kick in the nads or pick a fight with the asian on the other thread and hope he boots you in the aforementioned. :wink:
Put a letter through the door of the house you want to buy and tell them about the problems with their estate agent ,I am sure they will give the agent a good attitude adjustment
1. One knife is denoted the butter knife and is used for transferring a portion of butter to your plate
2. For each jar of jam there is a spoon, which is used for transferring a portion of jam to your plate.
2a. Jam spoons may not be used for more than one jar.
3. Each diner has a knife, denoted a personal knife
4. The personal knife is used for spreading butter and jam upon your toast. AT NO POINT must the personal knife be used to retrieve butter or jam from their respective receptacles.
4a. The exception to rule 4 is that Marmite may be both removed from the jar and spread with your personal knife.
WHY THE EXCEPTION FOR MARMITE?!? I DON’T UNDERSTAND ! ! ! !
Towbar (£100 supplied) and thule 3 bike carrier (£100 out of halfords a while back) the inside roof lining will probably be light grey (you do not want to get that dirty)
I have a C5 they aren’t as bad as people make out
‘Unless they’re taking up two spaces in a very busy car park and therefore depriving people of spaces, all you’re doing is identifying your petty jealousy?’
Thats the whole point they selfishly take 2 spaces nearest thes supermarket (if it was me that felt the need to use 2 spaces I would park further away where there are plenty of spaces)
As for jealousy that does not come into it, I have more than enough cash to buy a new car if I want,(I just do not see the need for a new car for a dog to sit in the boot, dirty mtb gear to get thrown in ,kids messing it up oh and finally other peoples bad driving/ opening doors to ding it) a car to me is transport and not a statement of who I portray myself as

I am not a teacher but as a parent of a gobby 13 year old I can tell you no amount of money would get me in a classroom with 30 of the little shits. as far as I am concerned the teachers in most schools earn their cash
