Remember this? 9 years ago...
Well I won't get any more use from it [fuck it up any further] and can't reasonably sell it, so wondered if anyone knew of a lanky, (ideally up & coming) tester with an appetite for risk/funds to repair, who's after a frameset?
Really it needs a new driveside chainstay and a pair of forks, but I rode it as is...
Just after the cost of postage and if they wanted to "buy the server a beer" that would be dandy, but I won't be policing that (and I can't imagine it being flipped).

Ipswich gets a bad rap...
Well, if the cap fits...
...some good pubs. The Fat Cat or The Spread Eagle both good.
The Spread (Grain Brewery mentioned above) is my local and just off the docks, which the route passes through. It has a courtyard garden and if you ask, they'll open the side gate and let you park your bikes securely. Blackwood Stout is currently on and well worth the diversion. They do pies (Pieminster I think), but not great value for money IMHO: £13 for menu-topping pie, which doesn't come with any veg or chips etc.
Practically on the docks is Briarbank Brewery, which has a large open area (but is open to the street). Do note that the bar is up a steep flight of stairs (above the brewery, which is on view): tricky in road cleats if you're carrying a couple of pints. No food.
The Fat Cat (free house) is a little out of the town centre but well worth the detour. There is a rail outside the pub for locking bikes, but they will be out of sight once you're inside. Regrettably the woman who makes their fist-sized Scotch Eggs was unwell when I last visited.
And just in case you see the Dove recommended, that's out of date info: formerly of AAA+++ standing, it's gone downhill considerably and I wouldn't go out of my way to visit.

Forum skinsuit: XL Milltag v1.2. £40 posted (including Racedots).
Looks unworn (no pinholes, clean gooch), which confuses me slightly. I think I sold the one I did wear, then bought this, then compulsory helmets were introduced, so it went in the cupboard.(Closely) matching socks, also unworn: marked "LG" which I assume is for "large", I wear a 46 shoe. £10 posted.Giro Empire SLX in 46 (I'll remove the Speedplay bits). Toes are scuffed, but otherwise good. Footbeds/bag/box included. £50 posted.

And you confront people who abuse their pets?
The people who dress them up in outfits, or feed them human food, or breed them to destruction, or make them run alongside their bike/skateboard/mobility scooter?
Or is it just through the anomnity of the internet, that you feel incensed enough to speak-up?

This is the Greenhell school of self-unaware, finger-pointing: pick everyone else apart and shout them down, while ignoring the cunt in your own kitchen.
We're not talking about Tatchell going toe-to-toe with Mugabe, or Iranian women squaring-up against the "mortality police"; it's just more entirely ineffectual, likely counter-productive, finger-wagging, point scoring.

3x Stratotankers + 2x Super Hercules over Poland.
The tankers are operating from Germany, before returning to Mildenhall. Seen half a dozen C5/C17 in/out of Germany, then Hercs further East.
