    I suspect they may get arsey if you try to get away with just a bike box and hand luggage, but if you’ve paid for a bag as well as the bike box then I can’t see any problems with ‘padding’ in the bike box. I’ve just got back from Mallorca with the family and the beach towels, nappies, kids toys, tools, bike shoes and energy gels etc were all in the bike box and weren’t an issue, partly due (I think) to two other bags in the hold and the box and both bags were within the weight limits.

    just screw (and washer) in place (I thought my shoes came with a screw and plate to fit but perhaps I already had one around)

    I did think about that, but not sure if it would limit the positioning of the cleat.

    FYI – I’ve been following the “art of strength enter the kettlebell pdf”

    Is this it?

    How about Woodstock, there are a few pubs to choose from and the walk around the lake in the Blenheim Palace grounds isn’t too long (either walk through the Woodstock gate where you may need to pay or walk down the A44 and use the footpath entrance opposite the Black Prince pub for free entry).

    I suspect some see them as an indicator of social standing/self importance.

    While some might I think the majority are just lazy or forget it’s there etc.

    ive found walking round with a high viz vest and helmet along with clipboard, you can get in anywhere.

    I used to think that until I was carrying out a condition survey on some office buildings (while wearing PPE and carrying a clipboard) in a nuclear research centre, it turns out the British nuclear police don’t have much of a sense of humour (but at least I had my ID around my neck)!!

    Have a chat with the recruiter, they’ve often worked with the company before and may be able to tell you more that will sway you one way or the other!

    My face is my pass, so I don’t need one. And yes, I’m a bell-end.

    Don’t get confused and try using your bell-end as your pass!

    We need passes to get in and out of the office and have to have it on display (so security can see where you should be based on colour coded lanyards), if I go out at lunchtime etc I don’t take it off as I forget its there and don’t want to lose it. I’m not sure how that makes me a bell end? :roll:

    Check if you are allowed CO2 in hand luggage, have a sneaking suspicion it used to be banned. Hold luggage only.

    The easyjet website (where I found the above) says they can be carried in hold and hand baggage!

    Thanks all, I might just take a couple in my hand baggage and see what happens (it’ll be less hassle than having my hold baggage opened)! Does anyone have any experience with Gatwick and/or Palma (Mallorca) airports?

    I’ve heard of people having them taken off them

    So have I, which is why I’ve contacted easyjet to get confirmation that I’ll be OK to carry them. I was just confused by the ‘up to 50ml water capacity’ bit.

    Can you run the Di2 cables through cable outers (or similar) to give a little more rigidity, use the existing cable routing and avoid excessive cable ties etc?

    Tomhoward, did you intentially wait until I couldn’t edit it to post? I would like to make an excuse, but I’m afraid I’m just a bit thick (but not as thick around the middle as I was!) :oops:

    I hate these videos for two reasons 1)I’m a massive pussy and don’t like heights and 2)part of my job involves managing a number of structures which people keep trying to climb (usually the first we know is when we get a link to the video) and its only a matter of time before some idiot falls off one :|

    I think the main thing with the Castle Guy is that the council et al are desperate to set a president precedent and stop other people copying him and trying to circumvent the planning process.

    EDIT: bloody illiteracy and spell check (was too busy making sure I spelt circumvent right)!!

    I’ve used Guntrader[/url] with reasonably good results, there’s a one-off fee to list, but there seem to be a lot of people using it.
