    Mate has no name for his 5 but calls it she all the time and has even apologised to it. He also treats it with respect as opposed to taking it out and abusing it down some rough stuff.

    When stuck in Spain due to the ash cloud my bag was packed and unpacked so many times i forgot what was where. Ended up with Leatherman several allan keys and multitool in a shoe in a dry bag in my hand luggage. Oh how we laughed when it was found. They just told me to put it back in the bag and check in the rucksack job done.

    Oh yes indeed. School numbers on the rise and a waiting list in most year groups. So we're pretty lucky, actually scratch that very lucky at the moment.

    I've drafted Obi with ease. Not so easy for him to draft me, given he's so lanky.

    BB, see your mistake was to try and be helpful but in a way that assumes that there is a guilty person.

    Personally if i had my bike nicked i'd thank you for putting up a spot like this. At least someone is on the lookout.

    In order to keep the bleeding hearts happy you must not assume guilt, actually even if you think it's dodgy do nothing, absolutely nothing. That way you cannot be guilty of making an assumption.

    Think technically you can't even rip them to a hard drive in this country as you paid for the official merchandise a copy is just that, a reproduction, which is expressly forbidden on the sleeve.

    Not stopping folk though. Go the bundle and e-bay route BUT post a listing here first there'll no doubt be a few buyers.

    Edit:

    Yeah looks like i'm right Clicky but no copy

    Having broken several bones in my hands at various times (all confirmed by X-ray at some point). It can vary from agonising floppy finger to the symptoms you describe. Get it checked majority of medical (and MR) people i've talked to and know would rather a wasted visit (and don't i feel silly) than something more serious.

    used them during physio on my knee to provide resistance for building strength. THey worked for specific muscles/areas but through strange excercises dfevised by the physio.
    Can't say i'd use them to do my own self devised physio regime.

    Head out to Kirroughtree area then work your way back. Camp site in Newton Stewart is OK for camping. THen back to Kipford for Dalbeattie and Mabie then Ae on the way to GT and Inners.

    Oh and no to Glentrool, i've done most of it at one time or another and it is fire road all the way, not even that prety for most of it.

    Was there at easter, brilliant. Best with a guide but the bikefax book has some good trails. Maps are pretty poor and won't really help. The RG routes are a good way to link stuff and work well as a long distance set of trails can be exposed at times. It's much better than this vid, didn't get the best stuff due to technical problems.

    Can't see the problem apart from in the digestive tract depending on pH on the water. The stomachs buffering is pretty robust.

    Not only is there nothing that can't be answered but the more "niche" the question, the more likely the pedants are to come out.

    Tiggs, sorry a couple of things: toxicity, neither are toxic. They both are narcotics in and asphyxiants though. Butand is heavier than propane nope, molecular mass is higher but one kg of each weighs 1kg densities do differ but not by much.

    Heats of combustion -2220kj per mol, v's -2877 kj per mol, so more energy for a given amount of butane than propane.

    Balanced equations show that for complete combustion you need more oxygen for the butan therefore more likely to get CO from the butane for a given amount of air.

    To answer the OPs question no you won't notice much difference unless you are at low temperatures in which case the bp of propane is more suited to your needs but for UK/euopean camping over the next few months either will do.

    Make sure you get the correct size. I fancy the "floating" rotors (yes i like the ticking noise OK) but can only find them in 183 and i want 180.

    If it is only for 6-8 weeks ho does the cost compare to spin classes? I do both but spin has more of a drive to do constant hard work and the views can be better.

    Ditto all of the above. Even when i thought i was moving and flowing through those berms i could still hear a racer catching me. No shouts of "racer" just a "on your left fella" followed by "come on, this is great you can do it". To be told you're doing great by a guy whose not been off the bike for 23hrs and is still travelling at twice your speed is humbling.

    Of course there was one kn0b but there always is.
