Really fun mostly house set from the usually fairly punishing Boris

Really hoping for a screeching U turn - not like they aren't used to doing it, and knowing full well the papers will forget about it after a few days if things go somewhat back to 'normal' because of it.

Such a cool bike.
Fair play for locking up a 5.4kg bike...

@CheBeef those wheels seem to be Aksium, not Ksyrium from the pic.
Decent price either way.

Dibs & messaged about the Romin

Should fit, but depends on the rack width a bit. Fits on mine, with a fairly standard width rack.

One thing is it may be a bit less comfortable for the kid, cos the seat will slam into the rack on hard bumps, instead of using the full springiness of the mount stays.

Selling my Singular Swift, size large.
It's such a fun bike - capable offroad, and due to the fairly steep geo and low weight for a mtb (around 11ish kg), it's pretty fun to ride around on the road too. Useful for gravel type routes where you end up spending half the time riding on road between the good bits.

The frame and fork are well used, with at least 2 forum owners before me, and it does have plenty of scratches and a couple of dents that haven't worried me while I've owned it. Structurally it still seems very sound.

Has an eccentric BB and a mech hanger so can be run SS or geared.

Rear tyre, brakes, rotors, seat and pedals are all new. Rotors/pads could do with a bit of bedding in.

• F&F - Singular Swift size L
  
• Wheels - Superstar Fuel (set up tubeless)
  
• Tyres - Vittoria Mezcal and Schwalbe Nobby Nic. Can provide another Mezcal for +£15 to keep it xc if desired.
  
• Cranks - DMR
  
• Chainring - Woolftooth NW
  
• Bars - Easton Monkey Bar EA70
  
• Stem - On One

I have a Hylix full carbon fork, unused by me (bought on eBay) - has a post mount disc mount but also can be used rim brake. £40

Also teaching people about riding away from dooring range is obviously very important, but here it just shifts the onus away from people needing to exit cars safely - 'if the cyclists are cycling safely like they should, I don't need to change my behaviour'.

I'd keep this letter focussed just on the Dutch reach.

I think it's a good idea - if there are plenty of kids cycling to school it might make the staff consider their pupils' safety and take some action.

I have a feeling as mentioned above, parents won't take any notice of a letter, but if the video was shown directly to the kids it could stick.

I'd keep the letter focussed - not mention anything other than showing the video to the kids, and avoid mentioning the parents altogether.

Fingers crossed you get some positive response.

Love hearing the occasional track from the early 2000s that really does it for me. Don't generally listen to a lot from that era.

Willem Defoe Pretty Woman is the funniest thing I've seen for ages. Thanks.

I really enjoy the silly plumbing related Pimlico Plumbers number plates.

@Thrasher yep, would work if you're happy to sell a single? I'll DM.

@Howard I'm in SE London, so Ealing a bit of schlepp. Could work if you're in central at all. I'll let you know if above doesn't work out.

Updated with new items I'm after

Seemed to me the article was based on a single tweet from his partner, which didn't have any details beyond 'bike crash'.

They are for sale everywhere in Germany - love 'em.

Overuse of "asking for a friend" to make mundane things sound more risqué.
