I found faster and easier to just catch the tube.

Merlin cycles had a sale for glasses last week?

As long as you have the Deore connector for the caliper-hose and the connector for hose to brake lever you should be fine.

Whats the part number for your lever?

The newer levers have a different servo but the older ones from Deore and XTR are based on the same cylinder system but having the part number of the lever would help you clear the question up.

Well as long as he's dug through it before the meter he should be fine.

:lol: true!

I hope its stopped but whoops and it can happen to anyone.

odannyboy – She's a woman and crafty as hell they all are (but not all nasty) I'm sure she would have looked at her options before running away.

MTFU – forget the hurt and everything else now put it behind you and get a plan-post on STW if you must! I have to hand it to you for looking out for the kids.

Women talk to women and give each other advice so don't worry about the phone call. You have the upper hand and you can do very well or **** it all up. A woman who has felt unloved for years is only going to wander and find it elsewhere and become your worst nightmare but it takes TWO to keep the relationship going. You're not innocent, you've paid the price just stop bending over waiting for her to up you in the where no man has gone before. No need to hate her but you must out think her! she is the enemy which you must beat with your brains not with fists or you'll on crimewatch and shot by Police Moat style.

Not good with money? FFS post the figures on here and some of us can do that! Get an accountant?

If you sell your old house which I take is in both your names? or are you mortgage G and she owns the house?

Basically get an approve divorce/family/home buying lawyer yourself asap, explain the situation face to face as your text is worse than mine.
They will know exactly what your options are and what she is thinking and lay the options for you straight so no more stupid posts until you know unless you support which Hora is here for although he is in shock this is happening lol.

Get a plan going with a new solicitor and don't write things down so she can find, don't be upset, get pro-active and plans/goals.

Protecting yourself will also protect your children in the long term.

Stop **** around and see a new solicitor and ask for the solicitor bill so you can ask what its for -get a **** calculator if you have to.
Hora is right you better not be trolling! but we do stupid things when an outsider can see the solutions easily.

You have your mission go get 'em boy!

Speak to NHS Direct so you don't have to waste time going to Docs.

They might tell you to go straight to a Drop in centre to assess you but a GP can do this too.

Wear helmet anyway so I don't mind but like Australia -it could put a lot of people off riding.

No OP is:

I hope OP comes out of this on top -seriously I do!

I can't even pretend to understand any of this.

Married couple, relationship dead from lack of effort from both parties, last week his wife was ready to run off after having an affair but the other guy said no.
Wife shows no guilt and cries openly missing the other guy.
OP not sure what to do and asks STW massive who say ditch the b (wife)

Now this week – wife wants him to sign up a mortgage which he pays,
She will try to claim benefits to pay her side but promises to get a job
and he will be a lodger.

So OP are you saying the relationship is dead and you are staying together for kids?

She will pay half the rent/mortgage with benefits/job one day,

You will live there, pay rest of mortgage and stay with the kids?

If so -you need to divorce now and stay friends,
buy new house in your name and mortgage -you're safe.
She is your lodger and pays rent with benefits as she is divorced and you will need a contract as a landlord. If she has £10K savings-she won't get benfits. You get together or see other people while remaining friends or patch it up or stay while little kids grow up and move on. (how many yrs of your life gone?)

If you or her finds someone else while living together then you're both stuffed and should be on a talk show as the new partner will also get hurt. But I have seen some tv comedy shows where this works! :mrgreen:

Otherwise it sounds like a plan! :idea: and she can move on anytime and so can you but do not sign the house in her name and mortgage in your name as you'll be stuffed.

1) Divorce,
2) Buy House and mortgage in your name,
3) Landlord contract from you to your tennent-her for DSS
4) Gives options for everyone to run
5) Divorce lawyer will sort this out for you.

Just scratching head about your current home and money owed to whom… :?:

Wait a second, Hora is right 8O -is this the same woman who cheated on you? And you couldn't be bothered about the relationship?
I think you need time to fix your relationship and not even look at buying a big house without all your brain cylinders firing.

What if she breaks it off? you're screwed yourself so stop digging any deeper and talk a solicitor and a psychologist!
Is your relation now hunky dorry? I would wait, see what the relationship is like in a year.

Don't let me start at benefits either unless you both really need them you wouldn't be buying a house but foremost you trust is earned-you both need marriage guidence first if you're staying together.

Good time to buy though with low interest rates. How will you convince the social security to pay for her when you're married? fake seperation? now that they employ private detectives to check on you-fine you and no more benefits-lose your job and home.

What would you say to a friend who asked you the same question? 8O

Are you using as a cycle computer or keeping it in a pocket?

(I keep my mobile pocketed but it still tracks no problem)

Boardman Carbon Pro? £1600 2yr warranty and Sram Force.
T800 carbon too although I think it might be replaced in Dec.

I think Barclay card may you give 10% off if you have a certain Barclay card.

Apparently cycling weekly think you can rock climbing on it!

I think any paying that much you might as well buy a Trek 5.2 on sale £2300 for a lifetime warranty or even consider Titanium frames.

Bichon Frise? smart and cute but expect it to lick the burglar rather than chase him away!

He said a dog not a **** useless piece of fluff.

LOL!
Thats what I thought too when OH brought two puppies home. Been awesome with the kids, tricks galore, but no dog hair! They do bark at visitors at the door finally.

Wanted a Doberman myself…

Bichon Frise? smart and cute but expect it to lick the burglar rather than chase him away!

Great with kids, people and burglars.

Quite smart too

I use my mobile for info call, paying bills, surfing the net, AGPS, track my rides, keep in touch my family, price matching when shopping tight git app-me, using push email, Skype to keep in touch with pals in Australia, India and France.

USB/Bluetooth storage device, Remote control for tv, calculator, diary, 8mp calendar, clock, alarm, music/video player, WiFi and radio.

Useful snappit camera when someone drove into my car door, looked at me and sped off when I was parked-the repair would have been new door/paint/labour-the phone paid for itself.

And you know when you're late for a ride meet-text or a call the bloke and say where the **** are ye?

Job emails pushed to your mobile etc.

So mobiles are great except I don't want to hear gangsta music when a person walks around with music blazing from their mobile!

On a weekend? I was told it was 3-days and my mail is always late etc.

It shouldn't really matter and you should check your netbook works properly before installing anything.

You might even notice the difference in performance too.

You are f*cking toopid!
Put both names on the mortgage at least but if you divorce you are ducked.

Charge the older kids rent/contribution?
But then again you're married for 6yrs -any reason why you both will split?

How can you not trust your wife? if you don't then you need to fix your relationship or get out.

Sold a road bike to a friend and then 3 months later complained the rear rim broke? No way.

Same friend tried it on with not paying me rent money, not paying his tv licence when I rented the flat cheap to him as a friend…well we're not friends and he didn't pay his last months rent but then again I did sell 2 sets of concert tickets delivered to the address after he moved.

Never ever do business with friends-lessons learnt.

I think you should buy the vehicle back if you have the money and repair the car and sell at full price.

If you were the buyer you could easily think the seller has ripped you off.

Paying 50:50 is a good gesture too as you sold him a car not road worthy even if you didn't know it would happen.

He is a danger to the public and kept away from the public by being locked up.

I think he comes out with so much sily tripe during games!

Also this time last year he said Chelsea were too old to win the league and they won the double!

And not Merlin Cycles!

:lol:

Dog gone it! :lol:

Calm down!

Well at least you didn't chase it into a castle like that TS and bugger the poor thing…

I had a mk2 Mondeo -only did that when the battery was dying- dash on, nothing but a buzz or nothing at all-wouldn't even engage the starter like the old cars that turned slowly.

Once left the lights on for 8 hrs- would just engage relay only and not even turn the starter on those mondeos.

Check battery and once jump started check alternator is pumping out juice too.

Battery probably flat or dying.

Oh and let us know what you did.

If you're worried about money used by corrupt figures then use Red Cross U.K. as they will supply people, food, medicals and emergency infrastructure.

Plus you can a breakdown of where the money goes too.

I managed to get the OH to donate a measly tenner-not much but better than nothing and a "We'll see what Pakistan does over the years" I told you so comment as she walked off in a grump lol.

I really do hope they get the money to the poorest and if not donate some money to Haiti Earthquake instead.

Very Nice

It looks like TT bike too-how's it ride radoggair?

Well you are clam man OP I would have kicked the crap out of the little nipper if it had bitten me.

Or begged for mercy if it was a Rotweiller!

Ever pulled a muscle or cramped on a bike?

Gears will let you pedal lightly home!

Also look after your knees too.

I stupidly did that when my GF had to go abroad – £2000 and £800!

Luckily I had the monies to pay – hell it would be cheaper for me to fly!
Or buy myself a roadbike!

I'd make your Daughter pay – call up the mobile compnay and see if they do monthly installments.

If not, get daughter a job, 0% finance credit card in her name and get her to pay it all back.

Yes we do silly things when in love or crisis.

Avoid fast descents at least till Ribble say it is fine!

Cheers Amplebrew :D

The old man struggle on 250cc KMX back in the day as it was too high for him at 5ft 10, I was fine just(6ft2) but will take him round to dealer as you're right its not worth buying 2nd hand when £500 gets him a new one.

Will make a change from his C90!

£60 Travelling from Melbourne airport to Melbourne its miles away!

Same with Rome.

Check the alignment, condition, clean etc.

Would be interested in what happens.

BTW how old is the bike from new? e.g. when was it bought from Ribble?

Sharki has a choice let him decide what he wants if it makes him happy/mentally stronger by travelling and riding.

We are a caring nation hence why benefits exist as it can give a person a chance to restart and help the needy.

Or sit at home watch TV.

:P

"Ebony & Ivory living in perfect harmony"

@cynic-al -If only that was true around the world it would be great! :D

I think the Taliban would shoot Paul Macca on sight and after scratching their puzzled heads Stevie Wonder would be gunned down next! :lol:

Thats what I have said to her lalazar -you can't label all as there is good and bad in any population.

But I did donate to Red Cross appeal by paypal so she wouldn't check my card statement! :wink:

But wake up? maybe the people of Pakistan should wake up and stand up! even if violence is threatening you to vote for him if they all stood together but it doesn't happen as they want it enough. :x

Maybe the way the country has caused and handled this flood will make them change their country for the better but I doubt it.

Personally I think it's sh**ty that you have nothing left, home gone flood water and disease spreading and nobody gives a crap.

lalazar that is what I have said to her that you can't label people but it is true the country is corrupt as hell and only the poor people are suffering yet they still voted the President in!

No not all them are but the list goes on and on grum.

I'm only stating why she won't donate and its her choice and to disagree with their ideals and values of intolerance has made her intolerant of the values not the people as she will not bow down to sharia law.

Personally I am not bothered by any colour or creed or religion but I had to question it myself should I donate-which I did on my £5 paypal account which is not alot just to prove that when ppl are suffering I don't care about their values but she's in a huff now anyway.
