I did,
Maxle, hope BB & performance pack.
Mine came with the RP23.

I should have got the hope headset since the cane creek one lasted no time at all.

If you can’t get hold of one you can make one up.
You’ll need
A bolt of the right size
A Nut to go on the bolt
A washer or a metal bar with a hole big enough for the bolt to go through.
Spanners/hex key
To use thread the nut onto the bolt then place the bar/washer on the bolt. Thread the bolt into the rivnut.
While holding the bolt still turn the nut anticlockwise so that it pushes against the bar/washer. This will nip the rivnut up

Royal mail don’t consider an item lost until 15 working days from due delivery date

I can’t do it this year due to work commitments, Shame because I really enjoyed it last year.

Direct line quoted me £950 for my T4 with side windows & rear seats(9 years protected no claims & 1 reversing incident with a parked car 2 years ago).
Adrian flux quoted £300 with those mods.
Brentacre quoted £399 with any mods I want.

Too much sorbitol can give you the Ertha Kitts

Stating the obvious, but you have checked the chain length at full compression?

It seems it’s a bit of a faux pas if you’re a roadie.

Cat 5 tattoo

We have a phantom log layer at work who sneaks down to the toilet on the floor below his office to lay his stinky submarines.
At least phantom bogey pinger has gone, they used to sit on the can & flick their nasal excavations at the far wall.

Ordered last Monday, posted Saturday, arrived today.

Order before arrived in a couple of days though.

Didn’t get one this year.
Think it’s all via email

Mid afternoon on Friday, gives me time to dig a moat.

I don’t know if they still do it but RBS used to charge you for every transaction made during the quarter if you had gone over drawn in that quarter.
I got caught out by that when I was a student. I cleared my over draft and had enough in credit to cover the imminent charges due at the end of the quarter but RBS charged me to take out money that was in credit and these charges put me over drawn at the end of the quarter again which would leave me liable for another quarters worth of transaction charges.
At that time RBS would charge you £10 to close your account too.

I don’t bank with RBS anymore and never will.

Shock stroke on mine is about 50mm

I’m sure it was closer to 7 miles last year

Northwind, Yes I did.

Belter of a weekend, fell off lots, punctured twice on the last stage :D
Thoroughly enjoyed it.

I seem to be missing a lap too.
Not that it makes much difference

Both Mrs H & little H enjoyed themselves even though they spent most of the day in the van watching the changeover area. Managed to stay dry in the campsite so no swimming needed :D
5 laps solo, still sore today, new brake pads on order.

I wish I could have a no fuss hummer

Me, along with one small excitable child on her first camping trip & the Mrs who isn’t fond of camping. I just hope it’s dry, which having seen the long range forecast I doubt. Oh dear.

Just got tonsillitis, fantastic so antibiotics & no beer for a week :x

Thanks, one ordered.

I’d bin isis if I were you. I went back to square taper on my hardtail.

Is it an skf bb?
I had an issue with creaking turbines on an skf bb & suspected one side was slightly loose.
Changed to another make of bb & the creaking stopped.

Fife council seem to be ignoring fillthathole…..
reports at the end of Feb, still not fixed yet.

BETD do frame saver bushes, easy to fit if you don’t mind taking a drill to your mech hanger….

If my experience is anything to go by HR are not to be trusted.
They’ll say one thing then do another.

“its called work for a reason, it’s not supposed to be fun”
“just be thank full you’ve got a job”
“everyone needs to be flexible”
is the attitude of senior management as they slope off home between 1600 & 1700

It feels like I’m waiting for the final cigarette & blindfold.
It’s now at the point where if it does happen I’ll just be glad that it’s over. I quite like what I do but ……….

Oh and talking about it on the internet is a disciplinary offence :o

It’s a nice sound bite but won’t work in practice.
Where do you draw the line?

Going by my usual race performance last place will be mine :D

Yeah, I know……

As I understand it you can be sued for not clearing snow & ice from your land if you know someone may be injured and they subsequently are.

From here
http://property.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/property/article3205122.ece
“On your own land, it is a different matter. You owe visitors a duty under the Occupiers Liability Act 1984 to take reasonable care to ensure that they are reasonably safe. This means that if you know someone (such as the postman) is likely to walk up your garden path, and you also know that the garden path is slippery, you must take reasonable steps to clear the path of snow and grit it if necessary.”

According to the man on the shimano stand at sits the actuation ration for the dynasys is 1:1.5

I had slippage problems with a salsa qr seat clamp and thompson post.
Greasing the cam in the clamp helped.

An acme thunderer usually does the trick with telesales/scam calls :twisted:

Get some blood donor leaflets & when they come to the door hand them one. that should do the trick.

From Riks experiences it looks like mojo are taking a leaf out of the superstar customer service book.
I have a set of 05 talas with wear on the stanchions I've filled & polished he worn part and am just going to ride them until they die.
