I don’t think possibly having the floor joints in the dining room rotting as no moisture can escape is really a “safe whatever” option?

bump

hire a bike?

I do it myself if no one else is playing out, used to give me the spooks but i now i really enjoy it. Spent a time last thursday creeping through the tress trying to spot an owl i’d heard.

Maybe most used people used to be fat but have slimmed down and are flogging old gear?

fairy snuff, just say she was too busy and leave double tonight

shame on you, were you too drunk to remember?

I did a day with Lavatrax, pretty good drop them a line.

you’d need a swede to touch the sides

Loved my Stiffee which was also stolen but i wanted something that would take a longer fork so i went for a BFe which is great.

I love the idea of it, it would look good inbetween my BFe and my new road bike but i don’t know when i’d ride it

from memory i used a piece of kitchen overflow pipe to put over the seal and hit it with a rubber mallet

back home now and i didn’t die! took it easy and i feel ok

even though i’m ill i still enjoy riding, in fact i feel i have to get out.

bit concerned about sudden death though, i’ll take it easy rding home tonight!

whenever we pass a lycra clad roadie in the car my wife always simulates smacking their arse from inside the car, she thinks it’s really funny

well done mate, valiant effort

As with anything i ‘purchase’ i’d be looking for value for money, there’s poor private schools as well as poor state schools so do your research and choose wisely.

As a teacher in a challenging inner city school i’m confident that whatever the school, an intelligent child will do well though perhaps would not be stretched as much as in an outstanding school.

Have you thought about moving, that’s what we did.

don’t mind the rain, once your out you don’t seem to notice it much but wind can really sap your enthusiasm.

For me though, really hot is the worst.

i did wear one on my mtb commute though i did feel a bit of a ar5e. I’ve gone over to the dark side this year though but i don’t think i can do it on the road bike, vanity over safety, sad but true!

thanks, the stuff i’m looking at is click installation so i’ll be ok for glue

thanks joolsburger, great tip, they’re cheaper than i’ve found for engineered

Shadow, really, i wish you hadn’t told me that

Try over there —–}

the kitchen floor will be a new concrete floor and the dining room is floor board

we’ve got that in one of the bathrooms but i can’t see it in the kitchen

thanks geoffj i’ll look into the bamboo a bit more

Mr Nutt, stone would be ok for the kitchen but i think having it right through the dining room too would be a bit much and i can’t see rubber working either.

reuben, no it looked pretty good to me

Actually there was some lovely bamboo there for £18 a meter but the chap said it was softer than oak and would mark/dent easier, what do you reckon?

Do you really play quidditch?

i wouldn’t accept 50’s

It means a lot to me and yes keeps me sane, i ride most days and really miss it when i don’t.
Love it more now that i can ride with my kids and pass the magic on (wife still pretends she doesn’t like it though!)

5/10 do some nice ones

cool, chapeau’s off to you

i don’t think you’re allowed to wear a wetsuit are you, trunks only??

i’d hardly call it ‘new music’

Whats up with a top trump and a peg?

thinking about commute traffic, are they as easy to clip in and out of?

I am getting into it more and i've signed up for a 100km 'race' in October which is great as i have a focus for training so i like the idea of being persuaded to pedal faster, i need all the help i can get!

tempted by these, not bothered about after but do they really improve on the bike performance?

he said it's an evo five

Got my secteur through the BTW and use it for commuting
It's my first road bike and I love it I've even signed up for a 100km race in October

thanks all,

i thought it might be the material as non of my other clothes smell though i suppose i don't really sweat in them, so it must be me. I'll try an anti bac as i don't think you can boil wash them though i'll check

no pets, my nan doesn't ride (leave it!) i don't eat much fatty food and i've no intention of cutting down on beer.

thanks all,

the concrete floor is in a 15 year old extension and i can see that visqueen has been put underneath it.

I can't grind the high bit as that side is level with the floorboards in the original part of the house.

I was going to use a standard or maybe silver rolled underlay under the whole floor and a good quality engineered oak flooring.

Nice tip with the tiles.
