If people don’t get out of the slow lane you sometimes have to start from standing, going up a hill, and when the slip road runs out there’s a bridge so no hard shoulder.

No such thing as a slow lane.

This is a prime example that people who are traveling along the carriage way are not reading the road. I guess you mean M6 J14, yes its a short slip road, into 3 lanes of traffic…. so i’m not sure what your point is ?

Restricted speed limits are also set in Germany by the way…

Speed limits need to be respected and you should always drive to the conditions.

The 70mph speed limit was set in the UK in 1965 and that still the limit.

My point is that a lot of UK drivers do not compare to the better standards on the EU.

Our motorways, slip roads in the UK are as good as those on the EU, (our slip roads tend to have a lot of run off) the problem is we are an island all fighting for the same piece of tarmac.

If you want to drive fast, do track days or go to the North Loop.

Edric 64 – thats a great outlook on the rear of that property…

I can’t see a logical or moral reason why cars should not be ltd to 70mph, and then try and enforce an f1 pit style remote speed limiter arrangement in lower speed areas. Then the traffic cops would be virtually redundant. Gradually the hegemony of road aggression and death will decline and the world will become a better place.

Complete tosh….why 70mph? It’s perfectly safe doing 120-130mph down the E* roads in Germany or even 130 kph in France even.

Problem in the uk is people don’t respect lower speed limits and can’t drve at speed

Dont go.

what ??? surely its fitted to the bike already ? aint that the idea of a dropper post – set it so its perfect for descents and good for uphils ??

In short – yes..

I have some clear, yellow and normal tinted glasses.

Never go out without them

Good video — but… no gloves ????

I could type for hours on this subject…

In summary.. A decent premium brand winter tyre will out perform a cheaper summer tyre above 7’c.

Wear rate is not a massive issue on more premium tyres now.

Once you run winter tyres you won’t look back, I ruin them on both cars mounted to their own set of wheels, currently running Michelin alpins and Dunlop winter sport 3ds.

I like mine, once got the PSI at the right level and rebound they work really well.

If they were selling one or 2 to people compnaies dont tend to notice..

Its when they get mass bulk orders its when it gets picked up

Uk tyre shopper…. And don’t buy cheaps far easts

Have you called them direct ??

Cheers rob.

I think Iost the sping out if mine when cleaning it the other night and last night on a ride it was pouring like a fountain !!

Cheers

50 miles off road since Sunday. It’s been a good week

I need one as mines started flowing when undone.. Thanks for ordering 10 guys….

Not decided what im going to be doing on the last day of summer 2013 yet.

Just send her an email back saying from this point forward you will be charging her an admin fee for all “emails” plus time.

Fact is.. all she has is your mobile number… while you have her address.

No stem… no refund…

😀

I have never been there, so it was not me.

Also, I have asked a few friends too, they said no too.

Hope this helps with your search.

next you will be asking about make up to put in it 🙂

Its only like running 24 inch wheels on 26inch designed forks….

Also.. set your profile private and only follow your friends.

That’s quality, regardless of if it will make it to market in the next few years at an affordable price, it’s good companies out their are working on future designs / enigneering like this.

Cheers for all the comments and suggestions guys.

I will have a read through the above and take a look online.

My only requirements is really recording the route without GPS dropping out, (which both my iphone and HTC do. (Iphone4)

Thanks

Thanks for the input guys – will have a think.

Cheers

The unit will be mainly used offroad and live in a bag if that makes any difference… plus plenty of valleys..

(I find the battery drain is also caused by the mobile phone searching for signal too, so sometimes disable that too!!)

Cheers

Well.. on the HTC, I have a spare battery and take it some times, but the ride splits into 2 segments as i upload before swapping battery’s. … (2100ah)

Iphone 4, 5 hours running time results in 10% – 5% battery left or flat.

I have found myself taking both phones out in the event that one drains and I need to call someone!!

Cheers lemonysam – I will take a look online at them first.

At a guess, rather than turn around times, BA flights most PAX will tend to take a hold case compared to a budget airline who take a premium for the pleasure.

On a positive, you have lot 21lbs already…….

Just as much as you can and eat “correctly ” I guess

If it was a no choice option and you was away on holiday….. I would suggest looping a rope around the bent rail, then onto a strong static object and another rope around the rear towing eye (rather than towbar) to the end of the rack… then just use the weight of the car to bend it SLOWLY!! (make sure you dont get rope whip though!!)

as it is only weak metal in the grand schemes of things… you could get away doing it on the towbar.. your call…

Seen this method a few times on bumpers when 4×4’ing !!

Other option… get someone who knows what there doing and heat it up !! 🙂

Did they cut through all the locks in the shed too ?

what sort of mileage ? DPF ?

True northwind 🙂

Thanks for that….

I’m all for battle scares etc on the bike as that’s what its there for, but should the paint be so soft wearing? Change of footwear ?

This is a cool one in Budapest too…

Dunc, cool, is that a 12 inch wheeled bike ? If so, that’s the same as my lad has.

Can you leave the stabilisers on the bike ?? If not, I can see it been bit of a pain……

Cheers, thought as much… Will be interesting to see what they produce fs and cost wise…

Volvo 850 T5

Should do the trick to the shops……

Rickt. Thanks for that, reserved one at my local Halfords to pick up this aft. Will take the seat post to see if it fits

No worries, I have been looking at them too but can’t decide if my lad is too small yet, he’s between bike seat and gator but I can see him wanting to get off or me having to go slow……….
