Never had a problem with threads or having to re-index when I've taken my rear mech off - but I would advise doing it. And protect your hangar! Maybe even take it off actually. A slight drop could put a bend on it and then you'd be a bit fucked for your holiday.

Yeah that's a depressing read, but confirms a lot of suspicions. He does laud Contador though, which is kind of encouraging I guess, in a weird way.
Who is TSP? If he raced with Wiggo as a junior then he'd be around 33-35 now...? And he mentioned his sponsor being one that would like to be prominent in the US during ATOC?

It's a fucking expensive gaming solution if that's all you'd be using it for though... As far as I'm aware, the intention is that they're used for GPU-intensive pro applications like colour grading, 3d renders, motion gfx etc

Hey, could be a different rider - could be a twice stolen bike, you never know...

I guess you never know. Seems an odd bike to ride around Peckham if you do smash it out at the weekends though.

I read the other day that Apple have removed this capability in Yosemite, or the latest version of. Only know because some people were discussing it on a Colourist group I look at (yeah, boring work stuff rather than games, but hey ho, gotta earn a living). I think with the new USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 thing it'll be re-introduced, properly. Current external GPU setups aren't quite ideal I think, but the new standard could make them as fast as if the GPU was a proper internal one.

Saw a chap in Peckham the other day riding something a lot like this:

Not sure that's the same frame, but it was a 90s Giant TT bike, purple frame. I may be being massively prejudicial, but I'm not sure the rider was, ahem, the original owner. Clipless pedals being ridden with trainers was the first clue, the second clue being he didn't look like a cyclist, the third being his mate was riding a fucked MTB that likewise looked like it was wrenched off a lamppost.

We've been meaning to make something like that for the past 6 months. Soon, soon! Any idea what floating shelf fastening they use?

Shit, anyone can make a mistake, we're human and fallible. Driving aggressively and habitually treating other people with a lack of respect (at best) and failing to be observant is something else; yet that's the situation we have with a large proportion of motorists. Yes, cyclists are the same... but a 70kg person riding a 10kg machine at 20mph is not the same as a 1500kg metal box steered by a lunatic at 30mph.

I sometimes equate this to the corporate or financial world. The people at the top - a lot of them are incredibly talented and hardworking, but I've met or heard of plenty who have lied and cheated and back stabbed their way up the ladders.

This now makes it sound like I'm in the corporate world. Erm... no. Twitter tells me of all the cunts, all the time. Cuntageddon.

I don't like to assume shit like that, but when your coach is pushing it and your best mate is taking it and you've not breathed a word about it, there's almost only one thing to assume. Almost. He just seems like such a nice chap that I want to give him more faith that a lot of other people.

Apart from the polluting aspect, there's nothing fundamentally wrong with cars - I'm fairly sure a lot of us here have them and drive them. What's wrong is the attitude people have whilst using them, or how they use them. And the infrastructure. That's wrongest.

I was a xbox360 person, but switched to the ps4. It's a good thing. Hardly a hardcore gamer these days though.

Mo Farrah then. His coach dopes athletes, his bezzie mate and training partner's doped... and Mo took a massive upward step on joining the Salazar group.
I want to believe in him running clean, I really do. But.

I just wonder how they can be comfortable/enjoying their ride when they must be sopping wet underneath. My mind, it boggles.
What's your problem with summer dresses and sunnies, while we're at it?

Good inspiration, thanks. Will have a think.

Yay!

I've only just stopped sweating. It's muggy as fuck; again - why are people wearing winter jackets/long sleeve tops etc?

Cool, that sounds promising. I've heard good things about the One, and someone on here whose name I've forgotten also recommended the IRC Roadlites.
How would you go about glueing that cut, btw? Any attempt I've made has failed.

What the actual fuck? Is that a cardboard fairing? A MTB triple?
Those aren't real Boras, right?

Couple of nights in a row I'ver got to the Peckham library/Rye Lane crossing at the exact time a chap on a (chinese?) black carbon aero track bike has gone through the lights. Deep rims, courier-looking black chap. On here?

Definitely. Rain in GTAV is incredible, and the wind in Witcher 3 is pretty impressive.

The frankenbaskets a lot of these bikes have - how are they made? Anyone got any tips?

You maaay have been - you looked pretty magnificent if it was you. Orange genesis?

Well my wheels are tubeless and good - Pacenti SL23s. Changing tubes on them is a massive bugger - about 50% of the time I pinch the new tube. So it's just a case of getting the GP4000 performance/p*ncture resistance with a tubeless tire (guess who p*nctured on his training ride last night)
