    The Hugis were prone to cracking. The DT Swiss were and are made of a better alloy, and don’t crack!

    Yes, palms flat, behind my heels!
    I’d willingly trade that for the ability to romp up hills the way I did 20 years ago…

    “Wrong. No 26″ can have a 40mm BB drop and it’s the fundamental reason 29″ ride like they do and why no 26″ will feel like a 29”.

    Not saying that the ride characteristics are desired by everyone though.”

    Nothing to do with having bigger wheels then?

    I’d be pissed off if I found those on used forks let alone new. They’ll be trouble down the road, you mark my words!

    saying carbs are more important to growing kids than protein..
    I understand what you are getting at but you can’t actually survive by JUST eating protein! Respiration relies on sugar being available and last time I checked, there’s not much sugar in proteins!

    POSTED 4 HOURS AGO # REPORT-POST

    No-one said you should eat JUST protein, but you can get all the sugar you need from fruit. There’s no need to have bread/pasta etc with every meal.

    Or choccies and crisps…

    I heard it too… some greeat explainations on there but one guy hit the nail on the head for me.

    He mentioned the “Elephant In The Room” and actuallly acknowleging that you are / your kids are fat.

    This and the basic and simple… energy in must be equal or less than energy out. Simples.

    Mein Got! they didn’t like that, did they?
    Oof!
    And the “expert” saying carbs are more important to growing kids than protein…
    Little wonder we’re a nation of chunkers.

    Here’s Louis, my 8yr old Fell Terrier

    He comes with me singlespeeding, usually an hour/and a half, 2 or 3 times a week. He has time to rummage around in the bushes.
    No food and he drinks from the bottle. I just squirt it at him.

    Does it do this on lpg only, petrol only, or both fuels?
    If it’s on both your local garage might be able to help. If it’s on gas only they probably won’t have a clue.
    The ignition system on LPG powered engines needs to be in tippy top condition and you will probably benefit from running different plugs. You don’t show the business end of the plugs above…
    Has the lpg system been serviced recently?
    How long has the lpg been fitted and what system is it?
    There are some good lpg specialists but they are few and far between.

    Stick em on Ebay. You’ll soon find out what they’re worth.

    As said above, the Forester is not a big car, but for it’s size the boot is very useable. the rear luggage cover can be removed and the seats folded in ten seconds, to give a flat load area. No winding or unclipping necessary. It’s a good compromise between height and length.
    If you can get 30mpg anywhere except the motorway, in any Subaru, you’re doing well/ collecting a queue.
    I’ve had two Foresters and an Outback. I preferred the Foresters- side headroom in the OB wasn’t great, but it was an old one.
    Three people/bikes and all the schmutter is possible with wheels off.

    I don’t think you have any legal right to know about any other offers.
    Just ask them if they’ve been accepted or are still on the table. After yesterday’s BofE announcement they might not be…

    I had exactly those symptoms- pain in my chest, throat, shoulder, arm etc, coming on within a minute of beginning exercise and then going once I’d warmed up. It was Angina, but 7 years later I’m still here courtesy of 3 stents and a double bypass.
    Yours could be anything but best get it checked out.
    Once the missus had dragged me down the doc’s it was only a couple of days before I was on the treadmill. Once they’d discovered it wasn’t anything exciting further tests seemed to take forever.

    How were you knocked off by a parked pickup?
    You seem confused. Best get a check up.

    Probably because PPP actually audit what hospital/consultants are charging. BUPA, in my experience don’t. I was once charged, when I had BUPA health care, £800 for “dressings” – a pair of paper pants! This would of course have been covered by the insurance, but still…
    PPP on t’other hand have recently found an anaesthatist at a local private hospital charging them for three patients simultaneously, amongst other frauds. That hospital has closed as a result of the rampant overcharging being discovered

    TH, Farncombe service station, corner of Catteshall lane is the best place in Godalming.

    Some Syntace stems only need 30mm of steerer. It might be cheaper to get new forks though…

    That red hub in the first pic looks a bit ropey too. Do you live at the seaside?

    I had a Hope SS hub for a while. I couldn’t believe how draggy it was. Noisy too. Cheap tat!

    The post office.
    either Royal mail special delivery, with insurance to £500 included, or parcelforce,with variable cover rates.
    Or Interparcel?
    Insurance is going to cost you! £25 aint a bad deal for a 4kg parcel.

    Royal mail handling fee is £8.00.
    Parcelfarce is £8.50 or £13 depending on which post service was used.
    It sounds like you were charged twice.
    I’m expecting something from the US so thought I’d better check. You were robbed!

    Why did you go the long way round?
    Would only have been 50 miles the other way.

    Use a wide base cog and with Velosolo spacers you can perfect your chainline to within a mm.

    Split it and sell the bits seperately
    Reckon on less than a thousand though.
    There’s only two pay days till Christmas so it’s not the best time to sell.

    Got told last week by a postman last week that due to impending sackings/redundancies, theyre playing the game of if the address isnt properly written or typed and doesnt correspond properley to the address on their round its returned to sender as undeliverable.

    They just dont care anymore probably.

    Which beggars the question, “Why does anyone give a return address?”
    ASking for it!
