You’re overlooking the fact that Pinkbike have a fully functioning classsifieds section. So once your ads up its easy to find if you’re searching for a certain bike or bikes near to you

Uniqlo Supima are amazing value and quality, currently £9.90 for 2 Uniqlo

That’s true enough.

A mate of mine is very active in local labour politics. She posted a piece praising Starmer. There has followed a tirade of vitriolic abuse from a selection of the local Corbynites. all the usual Tory-lite/Traitor/Capitalist Conspirator, you were all horrid to poor Jeremy rubbish

The sooner they all slope back off to the Socialist Workers Party or whatever shower George Galloway is fronting nowadays, the better

Left wing Twitter absolutely detest Starmer, even moreso than Dazh loathes his wife for having a better education

The whole things very odd

CRC/Wiggle are the only ones who have delivered when they say they will over the last two months.

If you want to price chase be prepared to wait. It’s taken 3 weeks from ordering for some silver Pike DJs turn up and I’m currently 10 days in waiting for some DMR Lacons to come. I’ve saved over £250 but lost a rideable bike in that time, so pick your poison

I don’t think they’d dare, they’d be buried at the next election

To pretend he doesn’t benefit from being a sir and a QC is a bit daft though as he clearly does and is taking advantage of

What a weird take, do you have any idea how hard it is to be made a QC, let alone someone with Starmers educational background

You should probably ask the foreign office, we can’t even decide what’s a reasonable distance to ride

If only there was a way to find out if we’ve had it..

Back to work on Monday, we’re still not sure how it’s all going to work on a tower block with one hoist, no toilets or washing facilities within the buildings perimeter (all the facilities, canteen etc.. are in the block over the road)

All the bike parks Instagrams are batting off bellends saying Boris said we can do what we want from Wednesday, are you open

BPW already had to call in the police as people have been removing barriers and riding trails

I’ve got the S20 Ultra and honestly I wouldn’t bother, for whatever technological advances Samsung make the experience is nowhere near as good as pure (Google) Android

The white women

Whats the fact they’re white got to do with it?

Why do you need validation that your frames ****?

Weirdo

^ a 2hr ride isn’t acceptable

#OpPIMA and sadly we’re fighting a losing battle in the parks today. Literally hundreds of people sitting having pizza, beers, wines. As always a big thank you to those that are observing the guidelines #StayHomeSaveLives #ProtectOurNHS #lockdownuk pic.twitter.com/U2eFTKTDGJ

Honestly I give up. I don’t blame people going out (so much) but those in power who didn’t make hard and fast rules/laws

For all those in the park, half the forum have been taking the piss with bike rides for the duration of the lockdown

I spoke with BMW this morning about trading in for a new model and was told it would be a six month wait minimum due to supply/covid issues

So the secondhand market will probably be artificially high (much like bikes) for a while as everyone is in the I want it now mentality

What a weird thread, literally the forum equivalent of posting on Facebook saying can’t be bothered anymore and everyone saying u ok hun

Just say what frame it is FFS

Tests!

TRUMP: “Katie, she tested very good for a long period of time, and then all of the sudden she tested positive … this is why the whole concept of tests aren't necessarily great … today, I guess, for some reason, she tested positive." ? pic.twitter.com/xNFEJn3W9s

@metalheart I use starbkes, they’re miles cheaper for a reason as they don’t hold much stock and order in on most purchases

I ordered some new forks last Wednesday and at this moment they’re still in the DHL processing centre in Regensburg, which is nice as I sold my old ones last week so have no bike

Tbh any of the german ones are good just check prices between them as its like here one will be more expensive than the other on ppular items and vice versa

R2 bikes are also good

Lockdown “rules” haven’t applied to the majority of users on the forum, not sure why people have decided to get self righteous now

The whole things a grift

Yet more grifting

I thought debit card chargeback was a legally grey area? I’ve used it before but it was a ball ache

That is also why I’m on the verge of cancelling, I don’t want them turning round and saying actually you can come, they’ll just be massive queues for the lifts and none of the bars will be open etc..

I’ve got till the 12th June to cancel and claw back the maximum

I’m at the point of just cancelling now as well. It’s getting on my nerves with the whole will/won’t I be going, plus the crap the lift companies are coming out with which is then amplified by the holiday companies/influencer’s

All that and we’re heading into a massive recession, even though I should be ok I won’t have the safety net of 80% pay by then

When I go back to work on the 18th we’ve got to wear masks, which will be a world of fun scaffolding

We’ll need 4/5 a day each

I received a similar email from mtbbeds about the lifts and as far a I read into it, its the lift companies just pushing to open and nothing official from the Govt

Lol another internet weirdo for the list

Deplatforming works, look at Tommy Robinson he’s on his arse now he can’t spout his shit on twitter/Facebook and YouTube

Ok before lockdown, how many people on this forum rode 35 miles + more than 4/5 days a week for “exercise”.

If you’re struggling for the definition of exercise it’s not jumping on a mountain bike and bombing round your local woods for 35 miles

Why are Youtube and Facebook so worried

Worried about what?

A 35 mile road ride isn’t exercise unless you’re a professional cyclist

This lockdown period has set back the general publics view of cyclists years

Camelbak sternum protector, same price as the stuntman and will save your chest if you have an off

I feel for you reluctant, my Dad died last Monday after a relatively short battle. And I suffered all those things you mentioned, the main one being getting what was really happening over the phone.

He mentally checked out months ago so the information we were getting was next to nothing making the stress of not knowing whether to go visit him today, tomorrow or next week or is he even alive draining. Luckily we got to see him 2 days before he died and it was obvious he was going then, so we at least got to say a goodbye

Now we have to deal with a Covid funeral were they’ll be 12 people (as opposed to 100+), his body will already be there, then its a 20 minute service with no wake. We’ll do something in the summer but it won’t be the same

Like CSB says the fact hes getting out and about is a positive sign, my Dad (though he had some complications) didn’t leave the house after Christmas, which in part led to his rapid decline

Formation

It France24 its not misinterpreted. Holidays abroad will not be happening this summer especially for us seeing as we’re outside of Schengen.

I’m still not sure why people have been posting that it will

Investing in a better bed base is much more beneficial for aches and pains i.e double thick slats etc, or at least it was for me

France are going to extend their health measures until 24th July, also a two week quarantine on arrival

I’m taking a load of pictures in the morning as I’m finally getting rid of all my spare parts and stuff I never use.

A GoPro Hero7 black will be one of them, a bit annoying that GoPro have just decided to slash the price but I’ll sell it for £200 posted with a 128gb card

Never used, just the box is a bit tatty from being thrown in a drawer

@saccades Dave from RSFSUS can switch a tapered steerer for a straight one

So instead of paying over the odds for older forks just pick up whatever you want

i doubt very much you’ll be able to visit france let alone drive through it in a months time

123k tests done in the 24hrs to 9am this morning, he’s only bloody gone and done it

This happened near to me this week to keep you going

Fail

What size do you need? I’ve got a couple of 3″ springs I keep meaning to sell
