I use it on my inner tubes, and I don’t mean falopian

With the big developments they are usually outsourced to project management companies who then get overly excited architects and engineers involved who see it as a chance to do a landmark building, which invariably leads to a gold plated mess

True, but I think FC managers ask them for these big flagship projects. I wonder how much of it is down to not enough women in top jobs at FC? (i.e. There’s a lot of willy waving going on)

I take it you don’t have kids?

People can still do all that much better and are very cheap to turn out.

That’s the answer…a process for extracting the CO2 from the air, removing the carbon, turning it into bikes and releasing lovely oxygen.

Yeah!!

My name is Neil and I ride bikes.

I was thinking this would be about Mackems with their shirts off.

It’s very sad news. We were only there on Thursday and there was no hint of anything wrong. Jarrow /Monkwearmouth was one of the most important centres of Saxon culture and hence of modern civilisation.

@vickypea ooh yes. “Snacking solutions”.
Beds that are not beds but “sleep systems”.

If you don’t stock it, shop round the internet for it. You’ll find it cheap enough somewhere to make it worth ordering it in and still make a profit at rrp. And you’ll have it in a day or two.

^I always leave the levers on the bars when dropping the fork out. It’s fine as long as you take the front brake calliper of the fork lower first. Just let it hang over the front of the head tube.

My favourite annoying job is setting up brake pads on old fashioned cantis. You need five hands.

+1 for the road bike. The out and back to Ardnamurchan is one of the best days out I’ve had on a bike.

Footflaps – they all look like cheeky monkeys!

…and in the same vein…

Meet at 10.00 Neil – can tell how often you come building…

Touche

Don’t worry about it. Shakespeare couldn’t even spell his own name…

People who seemingly rush to ” pull out” in front of you only to then go dead slow or even stop.

You do know that they are members of a club? And that they are all in touch with each other via CB radio?

Keep off the main roads.

Grated cheese.

Not sure yet but will let you know. Regular trail build days are 3rd Saturday of the month, meeting outside the bike hire at 10.30. Bring your boots, butties and bike!

There’s not much to do in Sweden.

Sorry, we have had to cancel all this weekend’s trailbuilding because of gales.

What’s the connection with the names ?

What the Dickens?

Just the one, Mungo. But with one this size who needs any more?

I have the Pro which is a fun bike to ride but beware :
Stupid mech hanger design means I have bent/broken 6 in a year.
Very fat seat stays mean my super manly calves rub against them, especially if I am wearing leg armour.

I think it was Bill Bryson who said something like, “at that age, the only criteria were a pulse and four limbs, and I was willing to compromise on the limbs.”

“To the rainbow rooms”

Was that the place above the CoOp?

🙂
Do they feel krillie?

Good grief!

“…adventure seeds planted in our mind pots…” 😀
I can’t see why you think that was a failure. Looked better than most of my successes!

I bet Dave Grohl would think that was funny.

That doesn’t make sense. You start at the valve when removing so the tyre can sit well off the bead at the opposite side. Start opposite the valve when fitting so the tyre is well off the bead at the end.

You’re making the mistake of thinking that the first stage of the process is getting the tyre lever under. First you want to gather all the slack at the valve, and you do that by starting opposite the valve.

On the other hand – I don’t prefer the idea of being dead to being alive. This as far as I am personally concerned is a huge positive.

Ain’t that the truth.

Purple foaming puke fountain

I have their first album.

Never tried it in the dark! Parts of it are quite rough but a lot of it follows some kind of drainage ditch. I tend to ride it the other way round.
