That was great, thanks Katy.
Are there rope swings at Dedham?

At the station, look out for steamroller.

Fred Dibnah

I'm on the 8.38

Thanks chaps.
I'm getting used to it now -it's still quite new, but I don't throw it around yet like I used to my old grey Miyata P.O.S.
Still a bit precious.

One that got away

Yeah. Unless a bit of full frontal nudity is on the cards of course...

PM me x

I don't look as good

Your bike, you, your lover....we're easy.

pictures please

of my bike???

I think Simon deserves some kind of praise for having the most beautiful bike witnessed on a TNRC. Chapeau

Merci, mon frere.

It's all in the eye of the beholder. Fortunately it rides beautifully as well.
I'm glad I managed to grunt it up the hills -it's not exactly light.

You and Zanda flew down it.

I did have to 'unclench' after that hill...
Thrilling stuff.
I couldn't slow down or I'd lose Alex's light - that mostly worked okay - reading the road 5m ahead.

Gravel + lightweight tyres = fear.

Oh, nearly forgot.

Boo!

You want to get that looked at.

:-)

Nice ride guys.
My brand new light turned up first thing this morning.
Curses!
Descending that steep gravelly lane in the dark was interesting.

sorry to repeat the question, but can anyone recommend an electrician who can write certificates for the job? I have a couple of recommended electricians I could use, but freeholder demands I provide certificates of the jobs they do.
council wants certificate too it seems.

Where are you? I have 3 electrician mates, all can self certificate- one in Stokey, (20+ years a sparks) one Wandsworth (mate of the first ) the last East Dulwich (NAPIT inspector -bit of an anal clipboard but he's v legit...).

PM me if you want numbers and names.

Headset is a good place to start though. I cured shimmy on one of my bikes by just tightening the headset.
Also on threaded headsets using a needle bearing headset (like the old Stronglight A9) can cure the problem.

You cant beat harris tweed, just head to a charity shop.

Harris tweed is the be all and end all.
But the cut is the thing -really.

Well budget is everything. If money is no object then Huntsman will produce something superlative.

If you want to spend lots less then head to David Saxby in Putney. Next door to him is his second-hand shop Old Hat where I picked up a beautiful Huntsman tweed jacket for £120 or so.

Cordings in Picadilly specialise in country clothing and have lots of tweeds.

Hackett used to but they have gone a bit fashion these days.

I bought a great (saville row) suit at the second hand place, which I got married in. Definitely recommended.
But surely that's Fulham, Putney being south of the river?

Aside from the fact they don't know the difference between chain width and pitch these look like they might be OK, what do you think?

I need to find an 18t 3/32nd sprocket and now Hub Jub is out of business...
Brixton Cycles out of stock Tokyo fixed snooty about 3/32nd.
Any leads?
Ideally I'd like an EAI deluxe.

Still need one of these. Nowhere seems to be in stock.

Circle is 80's 4 is year so Victory chainset from 1984.

You're welcome

:-)

My daughter has out grown her Puky.
She's had a couple of goes down at HH and is a bit of a speed demon. I would like to find her something lightweight -an old '10sp racer' would be great.
Frame only is fine as there are some 24" wheels I can pick up for cheaps.

Pm me if you have.

Thanks Cheese, sounds as though I should still take up the offer I had of expert help.
It's a shame that the bike decal guy can only work with (ancient) Illustrator files or I could use an easier program.
