Oops wrong topic

They are meant to be quite a good road bike. I considered one of those and the Giant Defy & SCR until I decided I wanted to punish myself with a fixie :D.

That's a nice bike that is.

The irony of this " there on bout closing local schools cos they cant afford to run em" Clearly they were doing a great job :lol:

Congrats :) Ethan (our first) is just over 7 months old and he is a star. It's amazing how much joy the little munchkins bring you. The sleep deprivation doesn't last that long, lets be honest it's a small part of a huge adventure :)
Enjoy!

:lol: My Mrs uncle came a cropper there when we rode the back 'o skiddaw. He also embarrassed himself by going over the handlebars by getting his wheel stuck in a rut just after Skiddaw house, whilst some bloke (who was bit arsey) was telling him he was on a footpath. I fell off laughing.

I predict an octopus!

Sheer genius! My favourite one, is the old I will lock my back wheel to the frame as they will never take it then :lol: Always makes me chuckle.

They should be quite pain free with a bleed kit as they are mineral oil so no nasty dot fluid to kill stuff.

One of these I guess http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=663

Hope this helps :)

What brakes? I have just done my Magura Julie HPs after changing the hoses on them.
It was quite easy to do with the kit and I have never bled a brake before. So if a ham fisted idiot like me can do it anyone can :)

I managed to get my backup script finished before 5 yesterday WOOOOOOOOOOOO. Fingers crossed it worked!!!

There are witches as well??? BURN THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dons flame suit]Why the chuff do these characters want permanent sites?
I thought they lived to meander around relieving people of their hard earned goods, badly tarmaccing drives and butchering trees??[takes flame suit off]
I have no time for gypsies at all.

I am considering hitting mine with a hammer :lol: It's been going mental! Lexical functions doing whatever they please, logical names coming and going as they please key mappings changing their mind. Since the thing got "updated" earlier this year I have had nowt but problems sodding contractors!!!!

Will have a butchers at this when I get home :)

Sometimes a day or two off does the body good.

Am not convinced any tyre is better than any other, most folk recommend different stuff.

I do agree this is the case with everything really :lol:

I love these http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=18800
I got mine cheap off the classifieds but will deffo buy them again.

They are two seperate databases, one with your personal details on and one with your medical details on. Only certain individuals will have access to both i.e your gp. I am personally not that bothered as it means less hassle if I get ill away from home.

if it means one less X5/6 driving in town it's all good.

It will be attached to the back of it like a fashion statement!

WTF is that? Why would you buy it?

Ace

:lol:

Be thankful you haven't had the misfortune of discobrakes (shudders) now thems bad pads!!!

What about this? http://www.billys.co.uk/english/group.php?prod=chidop

Cheers for the tips mate :) Will try this coupled with lots of swearing at the weekend.

10K? Just do whatever you normally do of a weekend.

Go out for a bike ride, drink and copulate???

I loved it when he scooted in for a maccy d's mid run.

If I wink at you in a cheeky way and feed a homeless person, can I have a bottle? :D I am replacing my hoses and I am not sure if I have enough.

47 mins is easily doable. I did last years Manc 10K in 49mins that was having to slow to a snails pace for a part of it due to my stomach cramping up (drinking an isotonic drink beforehand was an idotic move on my half) I am no racing snake by any means :lol:

I reckon so http://running.about.com/b/2009/09/16/comedian-eddie-izzard-completes-43-marathons-in-52-days.htm

Made my front brake hose too short DOH!!

On my io I have a surly tuggnut and those halo hex skewers (don't need the xl ones)
Does everything proper job :D

I think us flatland dwellers should have a group flat ride :D I live near Sleaford and boy it flat :lol:

Replace the brakes. I can't wait to rip my Juicy 3s off, absolute garbage! Had nowt but trouble with mine.

2 Thumbs fresh!

Cheers for that one :) Looks like we are of to Clumber Park at the weekend.

The photo for our street was taken Aug/Sept last year? How do I know?? The banners saying congrats on having a baby :lol: Shame it shows our crap old windows though.

That Dirty Jo semi creme frame looks proper job!! I have the silver forks from my io kicking about. Just need some cheapy cable disk brakes.

Sounds like a good way to put here off mountain biking completely! If I took the gears away from my wife's bike she'd never ever use it.

She moans about the gears lol. Take them away tada no gear moaning :lol: WOuld probably get it's too har moaning instead! I guess 1×9 may be a better compromise!
