That's not a defence.

Well yes...

He's a volunteer firefighter now.

Fucking reeks of guilt.

The naïve part of me doesn't understand how this cunt isn't in prison.

Last I heard, it's a shithole. And I'd want £5k knocking off for all the basecoats of paint those walls will need.

Vendors have been sectioned; kids taken into care. Right?

Hopefully you can squeeze gravel tyres into that frame, for those roads!

You should. Lots of interest here!

I’m looking forward to having it built up, but I need to find a home for it first! XD

Yeh, and I’m confident I can solve it myself if a shop refuses to give it a go.

I wanted to fit EPS, but the way the tubes are bonded into the lugs will make it just about impossible.

Job jobbed.

Converting a roof into a roof terrace is sketchy AF.

I’d be amazed if it happened in transit. It was packaged amazingly - took me half an hour to get into it!

The seller is being great, says to keep them posted. They had it built up at one point.

FWIW, the photo (and how I have positioned the steerer) does exaggerate the issue.

Will seek professional advice, and I have also asked the seller if they have personally had a headset in there.

This arrived today. I have a question about fitting a headset.

It looks like the head tube - where the top half of the headset would be pressed into - is slightly out of round. I think a manufacturing error as there are no dings or creases.

Will this make it difficult (impossible?) to press in the headset?

I’m not expecting perfection btw, on a £180 frame from the 90s - so happy to run with it.

Photo attached - if the zip tie is at 2 o clock, the out of roundness is at about 4 o clock.

Thou shalt not put musicians and recording artists on ridiculous pedestals no matter how great they are or were.

Oasis: Just a band

Only part of me was jesting…

Good post.

Might be time to hold a referendum and give the eastern states a chance to separate. I’m sure things will improve for them, if they’re given another go at the good old days.

in Thüringen rather than in Germany

And all other parties have refused to form a coalition with them.

We’re currently in Germany, visiting family. I have a bike here so get out on the odd morning for 2/3 hours.

On Saturday, I decided to take a slightly different route up to the Vineyards in Schnait and Aichelberg. Rather than climbing up through and beyond Diegelsberg, I followed the road along the Nassachtal (Nassach valley) and through Nassach and Baiereck before rejoining my usual route.

It was hot and new surfacing in Baiereck made for an interesting kilometre or so. But after that, the shade of the forest offered some respite on the remainder of the climb and the road surface was - as usual - flawless.

Before the descent into Schnait, there’s a tree-lined plateau and a couple of defunct wind turbines. Then the view opens up across the vineyards and the next valley over.

The descent into Schnait is smooth, flowing and sinuous and you lose nearly all of the gained elevation over as little as 1.5km.

From that point, it’s a ride home alongside the railway and through industry on the edge of Uhingen and back into the villages.

The next time we visit, I need to service the bike and I think that will include swapping out the 53/39-12/25 combo.

I always found BBB to be a worthy equivalent - in terms of cost and quality.

Swimming. With his pumps tied around his neck.

I’ll soon be in possession of a mixture of Record and Chorus EPS. It has seen better days, on a bike sat on a balcony year round.

So bolts have surface rust and the black carbon / plastic surfaces are faded by the sun. I’m happy dismantling everything to get to bolts etc, but what’s the best method of bringing colour and shine back to the black parts?

Something from the Autoglym range perhaps?
