Best wedding I ever went to was here . Marriage ceremony was at the venue, most of the guests stayed there and lots of options for walking / fresh air . https://polhawnfort.com

Very sad to hear the news, but a life well lived.

I spent a couple of weekends staying and riding up at John’s place a good dozen years or so ago.

Hell of a nice chap .

Thanks all, keeping my eyes  yes open for a newer fox or rs shock to come up..

I did l2b on a series of unsuitable bikes . Did it with 32 by 16 on a 26 inch mtb a few times .
If you are one by 12 , you will be fine .
Poss spiny on the downs , but not a race and you are likely to get into trouble if you go too fast, with random people stopping around corners in middle of road ..

Fip live . Available on Alexa also

I bought an after market metal socket for £4 from eBay , does the job perfectly ..

Sounds interesting . More so to get hold of the actual route itself . Imagine they will have to limit numbers as could be very popular .

I am riding 130 u turns on mine ,I did try than would done but did not really notice any difference in handling , well a bit sharper . Just leave them at 130 now

Wow. So is that the bb shell ruined ?

One of the Lynsey ones with billet dropouts
Nice bikes..

I work in commercial property water bills , so following may not be true. Most of our sites have water meters, that give a value for water usage . Sewerage or waste water is determined by leasable value , and we have a company who challenges this for us as often too high.
Had a big back charge recently , so think 400x yours where a water meter was not in place for some reason . We fixed this and got a new bill for 25% of so by insisting a water meter was fitted , monitored for a few months and then a new bill based on that.
May help

Looking forward to tomorrow with all fingers crossed , surely not a rout. Save us Ben , you must be mad by now…

Thought this was funny

I have just bought a £30 one from Lidl. They had one in my local Lidl two days ago. Worth a try I figured at that price .

Very sad if so. I used to go in there as a teenager , always super helpful .

£150 for a service at my local ford garage . They do a thorough check and send me a video of the underside and wash it really well . Seems good value to me.

Stop putting fat and protein in it according to monty don .

Just get a 12 speed deore groupset , use a Sunrace Casette af the back.

Stick a metal coat hanger in the end of the aerial lead. Worked for me at uni.

We will see I guess . Frustrating for all . America looked favourite of the three of the boats in those breezes, so would have been a great set of road robins. I need to find a video of how these boats do 30knt plus in 5-10 not winds. I race on a boat that does 5-10 knots in 30 knots of wind, and that feels fast..

America will probably come back and win it now, hmm.
anyone know what happens if prada and ineos finish on a score of 6 to 6 each ?
Who goes straight into final of two Pravda cup ?
Cumulative times or something I guess..

Ineos not as good in the strong winds, and America magic even better than Prada. Race conditions could well decide the outcome …

Wow . Amazing racing. Bad news for America magic . I wonder if the other teams will be offering all the help they can. Bit of work to do there..

That Luna Rossa Race felt like a proper match race. If Luna had won the start and controlled the course, outcome may have been different .
Hmm . Nz will be interesting match up.,

Amazing. This could be an interesting race then.. Ben dominating in the starting sequencing is always impressive, the tactics are there, now they have the boat. We will see…

Thanks to endomick, for sorting me out, and the other replies . Cheers j.

Yhm sir

Thanks for replying people . Was looking forward to this and then snookered at first step.
Previous shifter was xt 9 speed bar mount , so no mounts to reuse .
I am guessing any ispec 11 bracket will work ?
Will contact sjs next week , can see the body is out of stock . I think I will need both the bracket and the mounting bolt, which starts to get expensive .
Happy to pay if anyone has something to fix this . Swap a band on xt for an ev anyone , or a spare bracket ?

Previous shifter was bar mount, tempted to buy that curved bit separately if I can. So the old mounting gubbins from an ispec shifter .

Yep another annoying new option. Looks like I can get an adaptor. Selling and buying again for the band version another option, but not seeing any stock of the band on anywhere . So anyone want to move to ev who has a nice band on shifter ??

Having watched through some of these videos, Jamie is a humbling positive person . Donation made .

Thought I was helping :)
Hope you get sorted !
Same width for both of us and as said rings are Interchangeable
My slx ones seem lovely if you want to save a few £’s

Thanks for reply. Got a good deal on slx 52mm inc standard ring , lets see how it works..

After a bit of checking I understand the 52m chain line will work with 135mm back end, which is good as that is the smallest Shimano do in their new 1 by chain sets. suggestion is 52 also works for boost, so must be some flexibility in it . If anyone knows better shout.

Well 52mm means a 135 or 142 back end and 55 is boost I think.
I just bought a 52mm slx crank inc ring for a good price from Merlin, but that was 32t and 175mm. They had best prices when I looked earlier this week, and I ended up buying a mix bag of bits to give me a new 12 drivetrain but no short cranks I could see just now .. and shout out to Merlin as it turned up very promptly..

Yep, seems quite relaxed about it . We will see…

Yep I saw those smart pointer things and would have liked one .
So off to find a non Oled LG at 49 inch with a pointer .
:)

Thanks all , he is saying that not worth it for him for an Oled . So that LG on which advice looks the ticket.
Cheers

Perfect advise thanks . My dad has mentioned a Sony, but only because he had one before . We have an LG and it is super .
Thanks for which recommendation
LG OLED55B9PLA Should do it, thanks J R.
But I will give him the choice on the priceer stuff

Any thoughts here before I go and buy an audiovisual magazine or get a which subscription or some such . I am tempted to get him an Oled ..
