Major to minor would normally take priority however those markings suggest to me that the major to minor slip must give way to the minor to major slip.

/edit – I could see it, now it’s gone. Good work imgur!

Because if I buy 100 litres @ 129.8 p/l , I’ll pay £129.80. No rounding needed.

Do you just need to switch from a leading edge to a trailing edge dimmer?

A kid?

Are we talking 8, 18 or a baby goat?

When I was 11-13, I was using Parker fountian pens at school, the ones that took cartridges. Ink wells = mess and wouldn’t be welcome at school. Probably not worth spending more than that, even if you wanted to.

I’ve been getting stainless brushed double sockets/outlets for ~£5 each from amazon, about £12 for ones with USB outputs. Light switches, single/double are generally around the £5 mark.

BG Electric/Nexus metal are the same ones.

if you really CBA doing that, I’ll collect them off you at a PMA event next year.

we should have never come back.

but no, don’t go, too many poms already.

I have a WD Mycould. I only want to use it as a network drive, for manual backups and storage of large files. It does this ok but the network mapping isn’t persistent and it doesn’t always connect well.

It’s also slow as hell.

Lots of folks when racing an enduro will carry nothing but a gel and their goggles. When they get a puncture, f*ck them, they chose to go fast and light, keep begging matey!

the NN organisers will send you a minimum kit list closer to the time, with crazy essentials like waterproof, spare tube and water.

Basically you’ll want to to take everything you would for an ordinary 40 km loop away from the car, remove a few non-essentials, then add plus some cash for the pizza guys in the middle of the forest!

If someone is honestly stuck I’d obviously help them out. But far too often I’ll see people riding a race loop without the bare essentials…. gotta say, that’s the choice you made, don’t expect everyone else to be carrying your spares for you!

Ideal to experience Waterworld as intended.

There might be filters for photoshop/illustrator and the like that will produce line drawings from a photo – they might be able to export that as a vector  format that AutoCAD could read… but in my experience (daily use though I’d no longer call myself a power user or anything close), that’s not something that AutoCAD co do itself, I’ll have  quick google for some appropriate plugins on my coffee break.

Bus fundamentally you’re wanting to go from a raster image (pixels) to vector (lines), which will take manual, human effort.

the functionality you’re looking for is now actually part of the package. Assuming you’re on a subscription and not a hooky copy, you might be able to get it, and it might do what you want.

there are also a number of online conversion sites. these are the first couple of results from le google.

I have some of the older Dainese Trails skins and wouldn’t recommend them. Comfy enough but you can’t wash them without the mesh-like D30 material coming away and having to painstakingly put them back together.

The Trail Skins 2 look like they’ve fixed this but…

Just to temper your enthusiasm, I found the “Stealth” rubber on the Adidas Terrex shoes a big step backwards from my Freeriders.

Poison your kids with chemicals instead

Have you seen the amount of DHMO in Irn Bru?????

I have several pairs of old dhb (wiggle) ones that are fine. lots of models from £15 to £115. The cheapest ones aren’t as “nice” as the slightly more expensive ones but have been fine and never  think about it once I’m riding.

The newer dhb ones feel a bit funny, like squashing in some funny places so I’d say make sure you  try them on before cutting the tags off!

Tempted to get some so I don’t wear my trusty Zamberlans out

If they’re wide and high volume then won’t that be very different to the fit of a Zamberlan? I have bought boots/shoes that only fit ok in the past and have always regretted it!

I’m expecting the new HD to be a good 3-season companion to a MM on the front – anyone tried this combo?

I occasionally use, MM SuperGravity pair. Vertstar front, Trailstar rear, so maybe a touch more draggy than your combo.

But yes, I will agree with the comments above, the grip is legendary. Reliable, trustworthy and confidence inspiring. If your legs can handle it you’ll have a whale of a time on the downs. I keep that pairing for races, even dragged them round a Naughty Northumbrian. That was a bad move.

Are they fitted on to the seat stays?

I used RaceBlade Longs for a few years, they fit on to clips that go under the QR skewer and under the brake caliper. Slightly fiddly to fit the first time, but v stable and don’t trash the paintwork, rattle around, etc.

Hope do one. I have one sitting spare in a box somewhere!

More usefully, you are able to add an angle adjustment headset. I also have one of those sitting in a box somewhere….

I skipped a few pages, but I think what we all understand is, nobody really wants the Midlands.

Northerners; “no we don’t want that place, definitely not part of the North, therefore it’s South”

Southerners; “ew, that place has too many Greggs and not enough Waitrose, definitely North. far too grim for us”

Midlanders; “why won’t anybody love me?”

When my dropper was new, shiny and worth more than the bike it was attached to I took a bog standard Velcro chainstay protector, removed the Velcro and stitched it around the stanchion as a homemade boot. Cable tied at the top, stretched over the collar at the bottom it stayed put but could be rolled back for inspect/ and clean.

worked very well.

Now I’m back in the slop of Englandshire, I don’t bother.

Sorry, you took me literally. Now that Sustrans claim to have a network, is the threat of removing parts of the networks a useful tool?

Thanks all, looks more achievable as a DIY solution than I initially thought. I’d prefer a 50/50 steel door you’ve given me a good start, cheers.

My newer Seal Skins have a righter rubber seal inside the cuff, which is better at keeping the water out. Probably not as effective as a drysuit cuff or taping it up, but works ok. Knee length would work even better.

On a personal level, I feel that the sustrans labelled routes are shite; they’re unreliable and untrustworthy. I can’t plan a route for a particular level of cyclist based on their network and that’s an embarrassment. It’s not all their fault. On a case by case basis they can be excellent or downright impassable.

But now that we have a network, they can scream and shout about how they’ve been forced in to this position by NIMBYS, councils, landowners and embarrass them in to helping improve it. Do you reckon threatening to remove a cycle network would help motivate improvement?

IME goggles fog up less quickly than glasses, but that might be because I keep my goggles in much better condition than my riding glasses and only wear the goggles on the descents.

Goggles for enduro rading, big mountain, winch & plummet only really. For me. You can do whatever the hell you want.

Any links to a helmet mount for the Evolva X8??? I can’t find any.

I reckon if you see something wide open, one might assume the owner was nearby.

Some friends had a weekend away to find they’d left their entire garage open, open door visible from the main road.

Really neat idea! I did the same in AutoCAD for the last bike I bought, I’ll check your tool out tohave a look compare the results.

Not snaggletooth specific, but I’ve found that N/W chain rings are often tight on the chain for a couple of rides until they wear in a little.

Bike cable cutters are geared a lot better than those Magnusson ones, or maybe you all have hands like a gorilla.

My WTB tyres look like that after their first ride through rocky terrain. If the tread is ok and it holds air, crack on.

Yes chariots are spendy, especially when  they are £600 new and £400+ S/H.

Then when you get one new for £450 and can sell S/H, that’s not a poor use of your money.

Chariots are on suspension too, cheap trailers won’t be. this made us happier to take little ones out when much littler.

NZ Enduro. £1000 will cover the entry with a bit left over to your expenses and flights.

Nydia Track, Wakamarina and Whites Bay.

Best 3 days riding you’ll ever do.

Do a forum search for “Chariot”, there have been several thread on this not too long ago.

FWIW, we love our Chariot and used it with the infant sling from <6 months as a bike trailer on smooth paths & tracks. Bough it new in a sale for not much more than 2nd hand.

The design has changed since then so can’t comment but expect to pay extra for the stroller wheels, jogging wheel, infant sling, drink holder, ski touring skis, ….

Can you think of any other forums/websites where you have to do this?

Yep, I have to do this in Gmail too. In Word etc. you can Paste As > Text without Formatting, etc.

Whats’ the right solution? What’s your problem? Ripping the tyres or trashing the rims?

If the £50 is burning a hole in your pocket, then I’m sure I can provide some snake oil ;-)

DAB upgrade kits?

Taxi comms?

Police scanner/radio listening?
