The best one was in the first week. Near the end of the stage when the tension was ramping up and he was getting into his excited voice, the video feed cuts to a long shot of an island: "and there's the island of DINO, of course the NAME of Fred FLINTSTONE'S DINOSAUR".

Yates doesn't look very comfortable on his saddle, readjusting his position every 5 seconds.

I came to the conclusion that it's just easier to use a local print shop. My nearest one charges something like 5p a page for B&W A4. I only need things printed maybe 5 times a year so it works out a lot cheaper and it's not a big enough inconvenience to go there to make me want to buy my own printer.

Current WiP not far from finished. Ignore the saddle, pedals and steerer, got a black carbon aspide in the post. Lots of parts-bin on it right now: wheels I want to replace with something a little deeper and I don't really like the fork, I think a Columbus Futura or something similar would look a lot better. Probably black tyres rather than gumwalls too. -
should I take any sleeping equipment (mattress/sleeping bag..) on the bike?

They sell a rattlecan kit with a black base and 2k clear for £40:

Should put that on a t-shirt.

New nap spot. Pretty much the highest spot he can possibly reach. -
I've never had a pair of tyres cut up as much or as quickly as my Clement Stradas. Mine got full of little bits of glass and sharp gravel that worked their way in between the rubber and the yellow puncture belt. Compared to my GP4ks that have similar mileage on similar roads and have a few knicks but nothing that went right through the rubber. They do ride nicely though and they were cheap.

Not sure you'd be able to get hold of one by next weekend but I really like my Gaciron 400 lumen light. Think it's a cateye knockoff but it's really bright with a good beam pattern. Been using it all winter in all weathers without issue.
-
Thought that might be the case, cheers. I'll get measuring.

Is the length of recessed brake nut dependent on the frame/forks or the brake caliper? Bought some ultegra brakes off ebay and they didn't come with the nut and shimano sell like 8 different sizes. Side question, anyone know somewhere that sells them for less than a fiver a nut?

This pitch is.. uh.. interesting.

Yeah mine's lost a bit of paint on the back of the seatstays, might end up repainting it if it gets much worse. Doubt I'd fit 32s in mine, it looks tight front and rear, I have some 28 Clement stradas I'm hoping will fit but I think that will be a stretch.
-
New frame arrived today. Columbus Zona tubes and a reynolds Ouzo fork. Still has the questionable lime green spacers and bad bar-tape job from the previous owner, the pink outer cable is growing on me though.Got most of an Ultegra groupset to go on it, just need some cranks and brakes. I'm tempted to swap out the fork for a straight matte one of some kind. Hadn't heard of Aurelius before but it seems nicely made.

Hannity's busy on twitter at the moment, he should probably not be doing that.
Almost exclusively? what does that mean? Wait a minute, real estate?
-
I have an older version of this one too. I think the last time I needed to use it was nearly 2 years ago but it's always attached to my bike at the bottle cage mount in case. From what I remember of using it, it works fine. 100psi might be hard to reach but is probably doable. No hose so it's handy to use something as a backstop if you're a vigorous pumper.

Most supermarkets have a recycling bin for them, the Brita website has a locator. Afaik Brita reconditions them and resells.

You might be really lucky and have a french threaded BB shell.

They're directional. They don't have to be at the highest point, but the higher it is, the less chance of interference/signal being blocked. You can find out where to point it here https://ukfree.tv/prediction

Woke up to 5cm snow in the lakes this morning. Don't think the temp has gone much above freezing all day.
There's a mountain behind that fog.

Ah nice one. Yeah I knew about the exa drive not taking more than an 8-speed cassette but that's pretty much where my knowledge stopped. Good to know if I decide to fit a modern group at some point, I do really like these wheels.
