Gaz, was waiting for this thread to kick off the project. I vote with the above to keep the track bike paint as is and paint the road bike to match (though I see you have already considered and dismissed this)....

PM sent re Keo max 2 crabon pedals

Order placed yesterday, arrived today. Thanks Drew, good service.

^ Yup this. Now to figure the new one.

I will pass this on the way home. Sadly stuck here for a few more hours.

This one won't last long either I suspect

"Slowing down" is holding a flat palm with fingers pointing downwards towards following traffic. I always use my right hand.

I do this and find it works. If I am in secondary a trailing car at 4-5 o'clock IME will often figure out what is going on and also slow. If I am in primary and do this I often look what is behind me and have found it's a good signal for drivers to stay back and off my rear wheel. I tried the arm out, palm down, pat-the-dog Highway Code thing and my sense is it angers drivers, as if some crazy cyclist is telling them what to do.

I left the house at 06:00, 'twas sunny and lovely the whole way in. This better stop by this afternoon, mind.

Time for a list. I actually came here to post an Irish whiskey I bought recently, Teeling, a small batch blend from Dublin. Quite nice, very clean, and not overwhelming even at 46%. I usually drink Scotch malts but wanted to try something new. I live in SE10 and they are stocking it at Theatre of Wine on Trafalgar Road in east Greenwich. Would buy again.

Wow that looks superb. Sign me up.

Such a lovely frame, glws. (forks look oval to me too)

If you have a recurring donation, I presume that has just moved to the new accounts? Or maybe it was already going there anyway...But wanted to make sure.

i was going to post smallfurry's bmc but can't find an image. I have a bumblebee too but don't want to risk reader's wives...

SAC, which employs more than 1,000 people worldwide, said in a

Terrrifying story, glad you didn't come out worse. Heal up soon.

Who made the frame? Is it worth having a framebuilder replace the tube?

He moved to East London

As someone who grew up in the U.S. following the efforts of the Blue Flame this project struck a chord with me. 104x13 is 210 GI and 80 RPM = 50 mph, according to Sheldon.

It's excellent. Lucky for us it looks like there is more to come on this.

I've been watching his Experiments in Speed with interest, and he has taken a crack at 100mph (Sheldon suggests that on his 104x13 gear then 100mph=160 RPMs).
Pretty cool. I didn't see a thread for this project, so thought I would put it here.

Saw this parked at LMNH today, nice one. Repaint for sure was a good call.
