Sweet, i will attend

Will start rolling earlier though, around 6.20 though, try to avoid the rain as much as poss. Will wait at the gate for 5 mins in case anyone esle turns up

On a side note. My only nerg is from 6pt too.

Clean sheet wrecker

Hah!, what did he nerg you for CB?

I might swing by and do a few laps on the commuter.

I wouldnt bother if there is nothing wrong with them. bearings are easy to swap whenever.

Are you reusing the same crown race?

^^^I have that exact rack, I think. It seems solid.
But if you use it as low as in that picture, strictly you will need a light board for your reg plate and lights as the bikes obscure them, which is both dangerous and illegal.
I usually mount it way higher to avoid that but then I risk the whole thing shattering the rear window as it carries much more of the weight.

Thanks for the tip. I'll give this rack a go.

I saw the weather forecast this morning and left the good bike in the shelter of my home.

Out

Let me ftfy

Hello mate, I've got one, it looks basic but suprisingly comfy. No armrests though. If you want it, its yours for a mere tenner! Located in Rotherhithe SE16

ok, sold, ill get a rear rack. Any recommended ones? This seems good value

http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B000XQAD6C/ref=asc_df_B000XQAD6C8711200?smid=A3OITWRDM9TOMM&tag=googlecouk06-21&linkCode=asn&creative=22218&creativeASIN=B000XQAD6C

ya, was thinking i should be able to get two in there if i take the wheels off etc, but ideally would like to carry 5 bikes, one for each passenger.

I'm looking into the world of carrying bikes in/on a car. I have zero experience with this so would appreciate any advice.

Looking to drive to paris with as many bikes as practicably possible. Car can either be a hatchback or a saloon depending on how nice my dad is feeling.

Any tips of the best kind of rack, am on a budget.

Cheers!

Hovis on Jamaica Road this AM, he had a parcel tube strapped into his carradice.

I pulled alongside and what I said was "nice tube"

Oh that was in reference to the parcel? I thought you were complimenting my gentlemenhood. There I was all blushing for nothing.

I also think Hovis overestimates the ease of finding 70 seconds...

I always set my targets too high. Its in my nature to desire what is nearly unattainable.

crazy good deal on that wheel combo you're offering.

Impressive time stew. Few more tries and you might knock 6pt off the top spot.

I need to have another crack at this. Haven't ridden round there this year. Setting my target to 59 mins before the end of the month.

Had a really fun session.

Set off on my johnny todd for my warm up lap, only to have 6pt whoom pass me a minute later. He scared the bejesus out of me as he yelled something in my ear. Stayed on his bum for about half a lap, only to fall to a red that he borderline naughtied. Did my best to catch him and nearly did, OSR had joined him at this point, but I fell foul to series of more reds so gave up on that frontier.

Did the next 5 laps between 20mph to 22mph average, gradually increasing output. Final 2 laps were rather bizzare as I managed to join some kind of sprint TT bar peleton. I didnt approve of their actions as they were slipstreaming each other in the aerobars but whatever, no big deal.

Sprint finished the last half lap and maxed at near 32mph. Final stats were

time 1.01
average 21.7mph
top: 31.9mph

But the most important thing I got out of today was that I have genuinely fallen in love with the inanimate object that is my Look 595. Took a few months for us to warm to eachother but I really just love it now.
:D

tt bars? meh. Will steer clear of you then. Ill be at the inner circle circa 615

I dont have your mech hanger with me though. One of these days I will get it to you

Yeeeaaah. I'm on my silly bike too, sans silly wheels.

So I'm all alone again tonight? Not sure I can face the nodderaton without backup again.

...

Not sure how to respond to that.

I hope it was in reference to your cycling

on a complete side note hippy, I met scherrit last week. He described you as a "beast"

Pretty sure I saw laner at the southside junction of tower bridge. I was at the lights, at a perpendicular angle to yourself. I said nothing.

Definetly not. Visit your local podiatrist now and get those badboys yanked out
