Are you still after a quill stem? I’ve got a new kalloy 80mm one if it’s of any use?

Skated the other night for the first time in a couple of weeks and it took me ages to warm up. Skated very briefly this morning and seem to have blown my knee out in some way - big lump of fluid on it now and it feels super janky.

Don’t start skating at 40, kids! :-D

The top one is on the Foyer Culturel in Mauvezin and is by Loraine Motti

Bottom is in an open air municipal pool, directly opposite the above. Not sure who the artist is.

I suppose often the stupid thing they’re doing might also necessitate someone else justifiably using their horn.

Last time I beeped someone was on a double roundabout - they were blithely rolling out of the first roundabout in front of me and I beeped them in the hope they might glance in the direction they were driving in and that they should be giving priority to. Funnily enough, that earned me a beep back and some angry mouthing of expletives.

I also hate people who, when they get beeped for doing something clearly stupid, beep back and appear just as annoyed, rather than having the decency to look sheepish and do the open hands ‘sorry’ sign.

No, I’m beeping you! You don’t get to beep me back when you’ve done something stupid like forget how roundabouts work - that’s not how it works!

Sadly passing this on as it wasn’t quite right for my wife.

Lovely Giant Peloton Superlight, with shiny Columbus straight-bladed forks.

It measures 48cm c-to-c

It’s an old frame and has some chips on the paintwork, which you can hopefully see clearly.

All the threads are tippy-top. I’ve had a seat post and BB in and out if it, so nothing seized . STX headset is included and turns smoothly.

Only issue is that the DS seat stay has a sort of shallow dent (not sure what happened as it came to me like that). I’ve tried to photograph it as best I can.

I’m in Bristol and would rather hand this over in person, but I may be able to post if I can acquire a suitable box.

Included: Frame, forks, headset, some 600 tricolour brakes, kalloy seatpost.
Wheels aren’t included but are for sale so let me know if you want them too.

£90

Took me a while to work out what was going on with your rear hub :-)

Christ, I do hope no one’s actually planning on painting a mid century dressing table in glitter clear coat!

Entrance to vault 101?

Effing love that last photo. We’re currently on holiday with Odie at home with friends dog-sitting, so I actually just nearly cried 😂
Never really thought I’d miss the silly twat this much.

So much great ‘outside art’ in France. Small town near the village I’m staying in has some nice bits

I feel like the term ‘graffiti’, in its broadest sense, can apply to street art.

My youngest calls anything like that ‘outside art’, which is a terms I’ve found myself starting to use now too :-)

Wasp T-12 Speechtool

That reference was well Mexico

Any use to you? I’m afraid it wouldn’t come with the chainring, but it would come with the left hand crank! It’s 110bcd so realatively easy to find chainring for. I cut the granny ring bolt posts down so it could sit closer in for a better 1x chainline.

Ha, I was just at some traffic lights next to this van!

I’m going to follow suit and say I also don’t like them

Ah, Yes I think it would be too big! Shame, it has a splatter paint job and everything :-D

Got some BLB bronsons and a quill stem (that might not be short enough reach actually). Will check stem size and update. Also have some canti pull levers.
