I got my charge grinder which came with these rims:

I've been looking for a set of brown tyres to match the other bits i've put on the bike, it currently has a pair of black Conti Sport Contact 700 x 32c on it.

so far i've only come up with the gran compe ss which are listed as 700 x 23, I realise this may be a very simple question but I just wanted to double check that they will actually fit the rims ok before I order a pair.

Cheers.

Why are religious people so sex obsessed!

They are the ones that go on about it far more than the rest of us, the filthy perverts.
Me thinks the god botherers doth protest too much.

Cheers for the replies, sounds great!
Will start looking out for some suitable attire!

If you had a plane you could take something like this:

How about a charge plug? Tidy bike with bullhorns, perfect!

The tweed run looked like jolly good fun, I'd love to join in the next one.

What kind of speed were you averaging for the last one? As I'm sure my mrs would be interested in joining too, but her bike is a heavy as fuck Raleigh Twenty (3 speed, naughty I know but the gears are hidden away inside the SA hub!) would the pace be too much?

....and in the 30 mins you pop out of the house ALL DAY is when they decide to come to your door!
arrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

I've got balls so I stuck it out though all the seven previous tests.

perhaps the 8th test is if you have balls, and you failed because of that very reason?

do i get a star then?

Thought this was quite a cool NASA post, made even better by the fact my bike is pretty much this colour! (I recently did an Astronomy evening course)

it is estimated that up to one in five breaks the Highway Code.

"estimated"
"up to one in five"

nice to see the all facts there in the article...

ok .. IMO if you hit a pedestrian, you are generally at fault. if a ped steps out behind a car and you crash into them, you either weren't covering the brakes well enough, or you had crappy brakes, or you are a bad rider and need to improve/improve your reflexes, or you were riding too close to left, reducing your maneuvering room...

if you can not see behind an obstacle and you are passing it, you should pass it at a speed where you can slow down if something were to come in to the road. this is especially true for two-wheeled vehicles, who are smaller, so less visible, and can filter easily and pass in between small gaps - also any collision could easily result in both parties being injured...

yes peds can be annoying stepping out of nowhere, but i think they should always have right of way. the onus should be on the rider to avoid a collision. in the UK, Ped is King, and rightly so.

I remember years ago i was in the car with my dad and out of nowhere a kid runs out from behind a parked van, up onto the bonnet across the windscreen and off the side. My dad jumped out of the car and when the kid looked up at him just said 'sorry sir' it turned out to be one of his pupils from school (science teacher). All the little shits made sure they did their homework after that incident!

Many situations though are unavoidable due to the stupidity of many pedestrians, there was no doubt that all the blame in the aforementioned story lay with the child.

How can you blaspheme something which you do not acknowledge the existence of?

not blasphemy against god really....I mean more against the belief of staying in bed until after midday when you don't have to be at work!

9am on Christmas day!!!!!
Religious or not I'm sure that is some sort of blasphemy against something!

wow she sounds like an utter twat, I put a couple ribs out before (not broken though) really sucks.
Hope you feel better soon!

ring now, no win no fee, it's gotta be true because it's on the tv!

Of course not!

Bunnyhop 720 spin straight over the top is the correct way to overtake these things.

I like turtles

Going to bed earlier because it's dark outside and you are cold and knackered

You missed 'rape' and 'Muslim' out.

Homosexual Mulsim immigrant pedophile ipod zombie cyclist maims two innocent girls in attempted 'road rape'.

Richard Littlejohn would be proud.

Wait till the Daily Mail get hold of this story.

Homosexual immigrant paedophile zombie ipod cyclist maims two innocent girls. Is THIS what our British streets have come to?

something like that?

how about some nice lab grown meat?

"soggy form of pork"
yum.

I've found that for plain cheap t shirts you can't go wrong with topman (2 for £10), H&M & Primark ones just tend to go all out of shape and fall apart after just a few washes.

emailed about a possible page contribution.

Nothing can be as bad as bendy buses, hate those things as a cyclist, driver, and pedestrian.
