Cheers for the suggestions, will give the classic shell a go.

K’off bottle of leffe

Sound of coronation street the missus is watching

Fajitas later

Small amount of data – i have about 35gb of music and maybe 5gb of photo’s.

Chromebooks look good but i already have a wireless NAS drive to back everything up. Also read a few reports suggesting chromebook ‘idea’ is a bit of a flash in the pan…?

Probably leaning towards getting a normal style laptop but open to suggestions. Only thing is it wouldnt be used a great deal and most of my computer use is internet browsing on an ipad…

RD – you are pretty much a brummie surely?! 😉

Absolutley do not accept the rubbish the Police tell you about ‘writing’ to the driver. They can access keeper details in an instant.

Cheers for responses – will give them a try.

I wouldnt risk a 29er in the Alps. best suited to kitty litter trail centres.

The sound of cow bells ringing, and nothing else when sitting on a chairlift going up a mountain in the summer.

Thought I’d give internet dating a go after been dubious about it for years, after hearing all the horror stories, etc. The first and only date i went on after only been on the website for a couple if weeks, I met my now Fianceé. Right place at the right time and all that…..

Sound!

Cheers – anyone else?

More likely a cable end ferrule…. 🙄

chicken kebab and chips, slice of Victoria sponge and now drinking lager. I was ‘kin starving after diving today and eating jack shit all day

Skol and a jar of jellied eels

Current phone is a HTC Desire S. Almost at a standstill now its that slow and battery is half a day at best. 8GB should be enough, just store some music as MP3 files and use the camera for occassional shots.

29er – finally a bike that fits me

Deore disc brakes – cheap but just work and hardly require any maintainence

Decent kevlar tyres that makes tyre fitting/removal so much easier

Had home made chicken kebab wrap things with chips from the chippy

Now drinking sainsburys bottled lager

Do a search on here, few recent threads on them.

In brief i had one for 6 months or so, simply cant beat it for the money.

Thanks for all your suggestions. I may give the Deuter one a go from CRC for the price.

Just a 29er hardtail here, which to be fair is a good compromise for on/off road with a change of tyres. Combination of lack of space, another expensive hobby of Scuba Diving which takes up a lot of time and recent house purchase which all leads to lack of funds. Would like a CX bike, but can’t see that happening for a good while yet.. 🙁

Nice one Gary!

Ive got a spare entry as i cant make it now. Can someone (buy!) take it off me, if so how do you go about doing it as obviously i registered in my name?

Cheers for advice. RD – thanks for offer but placing order with on one anyway so going to take a gamble a go for it I think.

Mollski?!

Can the pauls chain keeper be used with a bash ring on the outside?

Another vote for the Triban 3 here. Had mine since last summer and really can’t fault it for 300 quid. Spec, quality of frame and ride just as good as something twice the price, but with a ‘better’ brand on the downtube. Was considering a basic Trek/Specialized, but as far as I can tell they are no better than the Triban.

I bought one a few months ago as a cheap way into road riding, and wanted something cheap as a second bike to go with my Inbred 29er. As fair I can tell the spec, level of kit and quality is on par if not better than a basic level Specialized/Trek/ any other big name, yet its half the price.
No real experience of road bikes, but it rides really well to me, gears seem fine although not set up very well, and is a lot more comfortable that I thought it would be. I worried it would take ages to get used to drop bars, but that took about 10 miles into the first ride! And it doesn’t look like a cheap bike either, which is a bonus.
Probably the best value bike I have ever bought, IMO.

White out here at base camp level in the NW Alps

What a bloody joke that was….

Tried card 3 times, which failed each time. But then got an email to say i am rider number 211…

Anyone know how to see the sign up list?

After deliberating for a while about online dating I gave it a go. First girl I went on a date with after meeting online I have been with since and now engaged, etc.

So I guess it worked for me!

Kilo – if you could that would be great. Do you mean the SKS ones?

Thats annoying. Oh well, for £300 the bike cant have everything i guess!

Whichever pick up you get, just remember to get a rack of roof mounted fog lamps, a winch and chrome bull bars fitted for the extra rambo effect and also to impress/intimidate when driving around suburbia and Tesco’s car park.

Had it for a couple of weeks above the treeline in the NW Alps, upper lift station and access roads currently blocked. Just heard reports of a white out further down the valley as well.

I gave online dating a go after much deliberating and hearing all sorts of horror stories as described in this thread. Anyway, first girl I went on a date with I am now engaged to. So it worked for me 😀

Cheers – i couldnt find that when i looked! 😳
