Basically, there's some funding in the mauritius (don't ask why there and not here...) for getting polo taught in schools. Needs 2 or 3 french speakers, preferably one girl (though i'm gonna check how essential that is cause it could be difficult to find), would be travel and acommodation paid. The only problem being i seem to remember mcr polo french just about managing with "un bier svp.". So yeh, first call here, if not, can people point me in the direction of other french speakers? alex? any londoners?

Yeh, it's the martin thing. would be for 3 weeks in about may (dates to be decided on).

Wanted. 2 or 3 French speakers to teach polo in the mauritius. More info to follow, but for now, is there anyone in the Manc polo crowd who speaks good to fluent french? If necessary could open it out to Ldn etc, but would be organisationally easier to have it all people from here. If you're interested and want more details PM me.

i'm not workin tomorow if anyoneelse is free and fancies scrubbing whitworth for a bit...

why not just a dual brake lever? as in [http://www.bikecare.co.uk/product_info.php?acc=Brake%20Levers&id=89]

what is needed, rather is an added negative feedback stage to limit braking force in dry conditions to less than the amount that would result in the rider'd being brojected over the handlebars. A braking system incorporating such a combination of positive and negative feedback (fig. 7.1) was developed by calderazzo (hopgood 1979). Only the rear-wheel brake is
activated by the rider. The rear brake is mounted on a lever pivoted near the wheel axis so that it is carried forward during braking. In moving forward, it actuates (through a cable or hydraulic line) the front brake, with any reasonable desired degree of force multiplication. Accordingly, little effort need be required for strong braking to be obtained. At the point at which the rear wheel would start skidding, braking at the front is automatically limited. In hundreds of tests with this system in which testers made "panic stops" from high speeds on different surfaces, never did a rider begin to go over the handlebars. (the front forks of the test bicycle eventually failed through fatigue: testimony to braking effectiveness and to the inadequacy of the design of the fork). This promising system apparently died in Patent litigation. As mentioned earlier, it could well be used to actuate other types of brake (e.g a coaster brake) in the front wheel.

cause they're not as clever and don't involve an excuse to play with welding stuff?

sorry, i seem to be posting in overexcited circles. i'll go hang my head in shame somewhere.

n surely you could just have the feedback system going from where the current barrel adjuster is so that the calliper didn't have to move?

i'd kinda guessed it was to make one, but still, why a lathe?

you'd loose some brake power though cause of the calliper movement?

that's amazing. it's slightly sad how happy that just made me. but why d'you need a lathe?

beaten to it

hah, that'd be colin, it's many banned words

Ace, i'll stop trying to add stuff up and just keep making lists. ben's right, i'm getting a list problem.
