Thanks Oliver - hope we make it on time. We leave King's Cross at 10.15 (fingers crossed).

We will be coming from King's Cross and past LMNH, Hackney Road, eventually going up Mare street to turn right into Victoria Park Road. Google maps says that V P R is one-way against us - is there a cycle contra-flow? We won't have much time to spare so don't want to get lost at the last minute.

Thanks Superjoe - will be on Mercian track with barber's pole tomorrow

What did I do wrong to miss the bottom of the list? Can someone move it up?

Any results from bike show polo, Cream and Luca's team?

Never had any images Regal. Could I use a couple of yours on our website to show what I am talking about?

Hilly Ben....what you are feeling are tacks (yes tacks) used to hold the frame together while it is brazed.

If you have no luck, try Chris Grange at Able Baker Bikes - Bishop's Stortford (Google it). He specialises in this sort of thing.

Amazing tarts, I have spent hours trying to get minor scratches out of alloy stems, etc.

Try setting up gears without a chain on. Do it all by sighting along the sprockets and 'through' the chain guides on changer - front and/or rear, top and bottom gears. I do this whenever setting up a new gear train. Get it all to line up using the adjusters. When this is done put on the chain and you may not even need to fine tune it. Worth a try.

Sorry = three lockrings

Would like a 20 x 1/8 plus two lockrings

I asked one of the ebay sellers where the saddles came from. They said it was from an auction and suggested I didn't bid if I wasn't interested. I wasn't and I didn't. See below:

thay all come from an auction thanks if you dont want please do not bid thanks

Give 'the Norwegian' a name?
Have a great Christmas Jacqui - will you be aboard?

Do you have a 20 x 1/8 plus three lockrings?

Tilover, is the lever braze-on or band-on? If latter you just need move it up a fraction to get adjustment on the thread at the rear. I guess you will have worked that out though. Another way is to use a half-link to put the wheel back a fraction and this will give you adjustment when you slacken off cable to compensate.

Is that what you do when you are not working RV?

Or 73k if you are metric

So what pressure for 11 1/2 stone? I use 100.

What are you guys using 130 psi for, is it competition or for some radical use to avoid pinch punctures?

Are you still in the boatyard, or on your mooring Jacqui? If you are moving in a short while just forget the rumour-mongers and let them get on with their sad lives. Shame all of this is happening when you are feeling down with the sickness. Can't imagine how you got through all the work of last weekend. Sadly we are too far away to help, but did you mention a man who pumped toilets out? This would be a good start.

If 500 smiling people had a good day on their bikes, enjoyed the company (at whatever level) and raised money for charity surely this can only be a good thing. How British to start moaning at a success and trying to shoot it down.

Well done Jacqui and Ted for creating such a great event and especial thanks to the marshalls and everyone on the ride for making the day what it was.

Congratulations to Ted and Jacqui and to all the marshalls for making this special day happen.

If only the trains ran on Christmas Day we would come down from Cambridge for this. We used to enjoy our rides around London on 25th Dec. Will go out for a spin here anyway.
