I hate liers

Racist.

Miche Primato, It looks black in the picture but they are usually silver.

Caboc and Crowdie are both nice Scottish cheeses too, if you're doing crackers and cheese.

Sir will be requiring an aperitif of course. Would you like it served in glass, or the more contemporary plastic? Don't forget to allow it to breathe. Ah the terroir! - Is that a hint of pavement...and a soupcon of undisguised violence?

Beat me to it.

A fine desert wine, and cocktail ingredient. Mix with vodka red-bull and you've got a Gorballs Sunrise.

Buckfast?
Deep fried Bounty?
Irn Bru icecream?
Irn Bru Icecream float?
Clootie Dumpling?

are those bars made of plywood?

Looks like a couple of these.

I'm so jealous. I wish I could have been there. I've not read the entire thread, but has someone considered getting out the fountain pen and writing a few words for The Chap magazine.

I think this guy loves his bike that much.

I want to see photos of you dapper chaps and chappets.

I am assuming "sealed bearings" means cartridge bearings so the axle is different similar to the one in this picture

When I say M10, I mean a standard M10 thread not like an axle which has a finer pitch on the thread.

The londonfixiebike stuff is for cup and cone hubs so would not be suitable. I would suggest fitting something to the chain or seat stay with an M10 bolt. If it's just a screw you need to fit the hitch then it does not need to be the axle.

.... What i'm not so keen on is that I can't comfortably ride the bottom of the pedals when mucking about at low speed, plus any jumping isn't nice in soft soled Vans shoes......

Don't know if you are aware of DUAL sided pedals, spd one side and flat on the other, they are usually pretty cheap too.

what do I win?

Dibs on the Deda stem. I'm in Glasgow, would you post? I'll paypal you a few quid for the postage.

Have an ingenious notion for custom seatpost with integrated red LED's to eliminate the need for rear light, must give it a go with an old post I have and see how it turns out, would be epic if it works out and they're bright enough to do the trick!!!

Anyone ever seen this before or am I really onto something new here??

I've also got a couple of boxes of those LED brake blocks, £1.50 a pair if anyone wants them.

yeah, i saw it there too, crazy, pretty much EVERYTHING is wrong. Can't question the guys commitment though... even has a gold stabilisers!

Fixed

http://www.armybarmy.co.uk/detail.asp?id=8&productCode=Footwear You can get them for less on ebay.

Pair of normal socks underneath and neoprene overshoes, works in Scotland's sub-zero temperatures.

RSW 11

Raleigh Small Wheel 11" wheels.

Sounds dodgy.

...If it involves midges, I'm in!

Fixed.

I've got a made to measure road frame built for me by Ellis Briggs. Nice frame, still going strong after about 25 years.

I'm assuming they are lower end and an old make.

They're made by Sugino.

They aren't heavy I've got an old pair of Maxy don't think they are super maxy there were Maxy Cross for BMX in the early eighties. They are JIS square taper and 110 BCD. Cheap 110 BCD Sugino chainrings at Alans BMX, £6 each.

Conclusion, good enough crank but not one for the hipsters.

Don't know if this is a re-post but found this on the BBC website

[FONT=sans-serif]Complaint [/FONT]
[FONT=sans-serif]A listener complained about an item on the regulation of cyclists on Hampstead Heath. In his view, the representative of the Hampstead Heath Society had been interviewed in an unjustifiably aggressive manner by the presenter, and not given a proper opportunity to put his points. This, in combination with critical comments by others in the studio, resulted in unfairness to the interviewee and a one-sided treatment of the issue. [/FONT]
[FONT=sans-serif]Ruling [/FONT]
[FONT=sans-serif]The interviewee had not been treated with due courtesy or given due opportunity to state his case. This resulted in unfairness to him and a degree of one-sidedness in the treatment of the issue. [/FONT]
[FONT=sans-serif]Further action [/FONT]
[FONT=sans-serif]Independently of the ECU investigation, the Editor of BBC London had written a letter of apology to the interviewee, and the apology had been accepted. He has also spoken to the presenter and the programme team and reminded them of the need to adhere to the BBC’s editorial guidelines on fairness to contributors."[/FONT]
