Some Bulgarians do “the head wobble” and it means yes or agreeing with you.

Excellent result for MD.
Can`t wait to go over for Senior race on Friday.

Dont know if its the HD or are some of the female contestants a bit like drag queens ?

Are they recruiting for “I`m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here” jail version.
Or is it Big Bother ?

Great minds… 🙂

Had a piss in this one recently in Amsterdam which was amusing

Post pic and let some others do it for you 🙂

“Red to red, black to black, switch on and stand well back”

Variation on that is
Red to black, black to red, and blue to f***.

Brand new chainset and I didn’t do the pedal up properly and completely stripped the thread when I stamped on it.

Could have done a proper repair with helicoil insert.
Apparently makes for an even stronger thread.

So by being on it, it tells the watching world that you are a serious rider and have some sort of decent bike. It logs your routes, leading to and from where you live, so chavs know exactly where to thieve one or more of your babies from. Simples.

You can block your starting point from anyone else seeing it with a mile radius exclusion zone IIRC

Dont agree personally with them,but residing in West Central Scotland feelings are running high at the moment.

Are they ?
No more than anywhere else tbh.
If you are gauging your opinion on the petty display in George Square then that is a very small majority I think.
Would the public or police response to an impromptu celebration there of a Popes death be dealt with in a similar matter ?
I don`t think so.

Not local to me, Cairngorm , but I will be driving up here next week so hope it will still be cleared by then.

Also worth checking is it’s your router it can see and not connecting to a neighbours.

George was on BBC Scotland Out of Doors this morning.

It’s got to be McNasty (aka George Berwick):

Now in his 70s, George is still outriding people that are half a century younger.

A former winner of the Mersey 24 hour, George has ridden the event since the 1960s, and has now completed a lifetime total of fifty-one 24 hour races. George is still the holder of the Scottish 24 hour record (set in 1967) and York-Edinburgh and London-Edinburgh RRA tandem records (set with John Murdoch).

Recently referred to as the “James Bond of Audax”, George has ridden multiple Paris-Brest-Paris events (a 1200km Audax) and countless shorter distance events. When his downtube sheared during a 1500km Audax in Germany a couple of years ago, he famously completed the final 500km with this zip-tie bodge:

(more on the West Lothian Clarion forum).

George started recording his cycling mileage when he was 18, and hit the half million mile mark back in 1996. No idea what his current total is.

About 740,000 miles

In case anyone thinks George’s palmares are all road based, he has been a member of the Rough Stuff Fellowship since the ’60s and is famous for hauling his bike over mountains and bivvying in bothies and caves all over Scotland, decades before the arrival of the mountain bike.

George Berwick – cycling legend and style icon. I don’t think he spends a lot of time worrying about whether his anodized top cap matches his handlebar grips…

Lezyne V10 is what I use but have found that chain tool is a almost useless.
Was looking for a suitable replacement reading this.

For what it is worth the only time I have had a car broken into was the Oswald St. NCP carpark.

Very good.
Although the lighthouse keepers from Chewing The Fat spring to mind.

Just going right back to the OP… It’d take a lot of effort to shotblast away that much metal and it wouldn’t normally be that localised, or very even- it’d be bizarre for hte headtube to be eroded away that much and nothing else on the frame damaged…

The anodising process ,which involves acid ,can do some serious erosion if done wrong.
I have had parts anodised come back smaller than they went 🙁

Although other parts of the frame would be in a poor condition also.

It is Loctite 641 or Loctite 660,which is for bigger gaps, bearing fit you need but there is a limit to how much space it will take up.

Thanks, suspension ordered. 🙂

My favourite 🙂

1,000ft descent.

I have noticed that I fair better on downhill sections rather than uphill ,probably extra weight advantage/disadvantage. 😆

Try Kirroughtree and Drumlanrig which are both my preferences when in the area.

Most of the above taste poor in comparison to the originals,Erdinger excepted.
I like Bernard free and Maisel Weisse which seem good alternatives imo.

Wiil give TF a phone. Ta.

Yes I did send them somewhere.

Well 4 months later……
Does anyone know soneone who can repair Rockshok SID forks ?
Especially the lockout function.

Thanks 🙂

I am willimg to be a guinea pig for future bacon butty research.
1 per day slightly crispy with tomato sauce please.
Then I will post when I get cancer.

DeWalt one from B&Q last summer with 2 batteries works well for me.

Similar situation with my mother who also has Alzhiemers but this was involving mobiles ,several of them,Citizens advice got all costs incurred overturned and had to change her number to stop the calls.
Possibly bar all outgoing calls except to necessary numbers ?

STW thread on changing a lightbulb, coming soon. 🙂

Where does rainwater go ?

Loosen bolts by a few turns and drive car around a few corners or turn in circles both directions and they will loosen off no bother.

HTH

Phew ! thought it was this.

I considered buying a homosatchel once.
A few friends have one but tend to keep them in the closet most of the time.
