Cycling or running to improve ski fitness ?

Just looking at the box full of nice bits in the shed to build my new TI frame up which is being delivered tomorrow.

Yeah, Inspected and been riding it for months.

I’m confused, your old ti frame is broken but you’ve got a new one coming tomorrow?

Back to the Future indeed.

Wiggle seemed to have deals on buying several off iirc.

I concur with the above.

P.S. buy the bolts etc. as well.

I got them for my S Works from here.

Have a 140 one and its great.

HTH

Apparently Harry Enfield based this character on him ?

My first wife was killed by a drunk driver…

One very good reason to say or do something….

It would appear that the Catholic church is buggered.

Fit a Fairing to cut out wind noise.

HTH again.

My plastic ratchet straps on my Thule carrier are 13 years old.

My Oakleys are made of Unobtainium 😀
I do believe it is a titainium and element 404 alloy 😆

Oh yes, Catholic church in child abuse shocker.
I heard we beat the Germans again at war again also.
I heart STW.

Worlds Fastest Indian.

All good stuff and true tale also.

Best not wear my fancy dress costume I have this weekend then !

{Removed} – Mod

Never done it myself but in regards to the above how about a Dremmel type tool with thin cut off disc attached.

I use http://www.auctionsniper.com/

My postie sells “mystery parcels” £5 a go. 🙂

Drifting on a bike FFS 🙄

Lol I used to get an “airlock” in upstairs bathroom cold tap.
Used to open tap and proceed to give it a blow into tap and it would run again.
Insert further BJ jokes.

I`m with coatesy on this.
I assume it has rear suspension ? if so then the cable outer is too short where it comes from frame to arm.

Try Dumfries which isn`t too far away tbh.

Chains usually snap due to way too much pressure being applied.
ie. wrong gear wrong speed scenario.

Engineer: Yes
Mountain biker: Yes

I usually acknowledge other riders when possible and a polite return is nice and vice versa but I really hate it when I get blanked or stared at as much as someone who had just raped their dog or something.
**** off you miserable bastrds.

Went to G/T on Saturday to remind myself why I don`t go there anymore.
Mate snapped the chain ,on the bike I lent him, at top of spooky wood.
I swear that is the most well equpped place in the universe to breakdown and a power link was produced faster than a blink of an eye and we were on our way again.Thanks btw to said dude with the spare.
Still I wont go back again for a long while.

Save your dosh and buy a dreambox.

HTH

Mincers tbh

I use liquid penetration dye to test welds.
It may work on carbon fibre also.
Then again it may not 🙂

Dont forget your t shirt….

Presta ftw

Some cheapo ones here 🙂

I have the earlier Thule fork mounted carriers.Used them for over ten years no problems.
I can only assume that you have not tightened them to roofbars right from your description.

😀

There you go.

Copied from other forum but may be of use to someone in your position.

“Machinist’s Workshop magazine actually tested penetrants for break out torque on rusted nuts. Significant results! They are below, as forwarded by an ex-student and professional machinist, Bud Baker.

*Don’t forget the April 2007 “Machinist’s Workshop” magazine comparison
test.*
**
*They arranged a subjective test of all the popular penetrants with
the control being the torque required to remove the nut from a
“scientifically rusted” environment.*
**

*Penetrating oil ….. Average load*

None ………………… 516 pounds
WD-40 ……………… 238 pounds
PB Blaster …………. 214 pounds
Liquid Wrench ….. 127 pounds
Kano Kroil ………… 106 pounds
ATF-Acetone mix….53 pounds

*The ATF-Acetone mix was a “home brew” mix of 50% acetone – 50% automatic transmission fluid.*
*Note the “home brew” was better than any commercial product in this one
particular test. Our local machinist group mixed up a batch and we all now
use it with equally good results. Note also that “Liquid Wrench” is about
as good as “Kroil” for about 20% of the price. * “

So maybe some of that but failing the above get seatpost in a bench vice and use frame as leverage.

HTH

Would give Glentrool a miss tbh.
Long and not very exciting in any way at all.
Kirroughtree is by far one of the best of the trail centres on both black and red.
