Another ROFL thread! Just carry the bike, there isn't much science too it.
I know, but I had to post...
Seriously though, you people are ferrero rocher's helping me out. The techniques you lot mention have spoiled me. Liking the pics and (@vila-ru) I'm going to try something like this, it might even get me some BBC airtime...
-
Fix it, then push it.
Think I'm going to stick a piece of small piece of foam under the top tube so I can carry it like that classy bird.
-
What do you mean doesn't like the frame?
Well basically the rear might bent after a collision, that rules out pushing it.
-
This killed my shoulder although it looks WIN.
-
@hippy when it's in bit's. When the chain is broken and the wheel does not like the frame.
-
Fool proof methods for long distances... Y'know for those situations were you've just got to sling it over your shoulder and run...
-
Becareful if parking your bike on Mabledon Place - the area outside Unison the recycling bins bit.. Saw some dodgy looking bloke eying the bikes.
-
42cm might be a bit too small... but if she's comfortable on it..
I'm thinking more 45 - 47cm.
When she stands over the bar it should not make any contact with her, and when she pedals her foot should be almost fully extended for optimal contact and rotation etc. Also the seat should not be at it's lowest setting... This hints that a getting smaller frame would be a better solution - should always have room to adjust..
The wheels are fair go - the frame sizing is what's most important.

Done..
but
tbh not enough options. What about those with more exotic riding skills. Apart from the field at bottom the form could have atleast had an option to detail with each question in a field labelled "If none of the above, what are you doing!"
Also it should have asked what kind of bike we ride, some bikes/riders handle situations slightly differently than others.

...what the hell are you supposed to wear??
Look and behave like a courier...
n' the moment you go in for the interview run up with an gigantic pvc envelope under your arm containing your application and ask them to sign. Act twitchy... Look at your wrist-watch constantly.
If the interviewer is attractive chat them up with full on 'courier-talk'. Stuff like "Nice place, come here often... Oh yeah, 'course you work here... yeah, yeah thought I'd seen you around... same time maybe tommorow, gotta go!" Then run out like they'll expect you again. Works every time ;)
-
Just reffering to the op. I should have quoted.
Nah.. something I was considering buying myself but it might require a bit of getting used to? Want to keep it simple for now, mostly flatland so might be ott for me.
On Sheldons page now.. I can never get over how much of that site is still relevant now though - and probably for the rest of my lifetime.

Time for bed then...

I wish that link worked... wish the joke was funny... where's my lamp when I need it?
-
Pivot bolts (?) for mounting v brakes to the frame. If you have any spare let me know, I'll paypal you.
-
@ 5.00 in that video... I used to open big doors like that.
On topic go with a brake, it's scary when a tourist bus turns up on a quiet little route.
-
If anyone gets offered my beautiful brown Brooks B5N saddle, (theres a scrape on the hip on one side but apart from that its a gorgeous dark brown colour.) then please smack the b@stard in the face because they nicked it from my bike last night in Angel. C*NTS!
Just found this on ebay

Now what pray tell, is 'dogs on acid'???
Welcome to the forum! This is the Nursery. PLease read the rule and remember, a spine is everything. That and a sense of humour.
Thanks, Dogs On Acid is a road to enlightenment/foul meeting place for DnB/Junglists on the interweb. I spent most of last year on the Grid the production side, because thats what interests me the most. Alot of clowning goes on there so if you do visit, proceed with caution. Alot of NSFW's there too... It's alternative way of finding out the news if anything.
Ciao

I needed the lfgss forums but I ended up on Dogs On Acid for over a year. Where have you been all my... er actually hang on.. I did'nt have a bicycle before, but now I do and it has - 1 gear.
-
Wondering if anyone is missing a SPECIALIZED GLOBE DISC 2010 bike. If so let me know. Was on ebay and I got one of those generic admin scam letters. The pictures are down now but it was grey. Might have been innocent, don't know...
