My friend had a stuck post recently, tried everything on Sheldon to remove it but nothing worked. Eventually gave it to a guy that works in an aircraft bearings factory, they froze the post heated the frame slightly and used some massive industrial extractor to get it out.
Total last resort, that one... -

I've had two bikes stolen in my life. One in Oxford from my garage, the other in London.
Second one I spent the best part of a week searching, sleuthing, reporting, etc. but never found it, although did help to recover two of Lenny's bikes at Brick Lane, in what he described as 'like something from a film'.Would happily take part in a reconstruction, Crimewatch style, if you wanted.

Only done it a couple of times, but definitely been more pissed when I got home, blood pumping the booze to the places that other activities can't reach.
I cycled home really stoned once too (I rarely rarely smoke these days), and I swear I was in the most control I've ever been. Going in a line, straight as a die, checking every single junction that something wasn't coming out, looking over my shoulder at every car passing me. It was like some beautiful paranoia.

How did you bend them, crash? No handed riding isn't the best test as there could be many other factors making a bike pull to one side. Headset not adjusted properly, brake cable pull, even your own body being out of whack (chiropractors ftw)
