Yes please :)

A strip of old inner tube under the clips prevents that too :)

If you have a cage that has access across the bolt tabs, then you can just slip a Jubilee clip over either end and tighten it up like that. It works perfectly.

Shoes look like custom Giro Empires, for whoever asked about them up-thread.

He looks fine.

"One hour is the length of his dinner, and he's feasting himself on this velodrome!"

For goodness sake!!!?!

Looks like the Sky stream has them back.

EDIT - Actually, no lap splits, but it's got av. speed and WR pace difference, which is something I guess...

La nouveau slaves de Gaston - par excellence!

Hang on a minute, I've only just read that tweet properly. So he owns a chain of successful cafes, has a house worth a reported £3 million furnished with fine furniture, a flashy car, a fancy leather jacket, and god knows what else... And this chump and his son only have one pair of trainers between them!?

Hey @scultura I've got a set of the silver SPD-SLs in good condition, with both yellow and blue cleats, if you want them?

At about 2:21 I was hoping for the assistant to tenderly offer him the fresh toast as he was doubled over, and for Robert to take a strained but contented bite in victory. A little bit disappointed in the actual conclusion to be honest.

Looks...comfy?

Good man!

Also, now that link's there you might want to just amend it to read 'Dolan Pre-Cursa' in the thread title, rather than the ambiguous 'Alloy Track Frame'. Everyone knows Dolan are a reputable brand, so I'm sure it wouldn't damange your cause at all. GLWS :)

Free seatpost too.

Perhaps, but I think setting aside an entire day for riding is much more difficult for some than it is for others.

I like the idea of a short ride, every week through summer, that gets people together just for the joy of doing it. I can't be bothered riding seriously any more, so I need to get out regularly in order to keep a base level of fitness, and doing it on your own gets a bit dull.

Maybe throw it out there as a suggestion? My only thought being that new people might be more keen!

Are your 'work fwends' up for group riding? Or are they all total beginners?

Yeah I found it really tricky. Looking back at the EXIF it seems I was fairly consistent with the 'good' shots though, as all of those three were centre focus, spot metered and -2EV (the lowest the x100 goes) which might be worth remembering for next time!

Thanks man. It was so difficult to shoot with all the fire going off, and multi-directional spotlights in loads of different colours, not to mention the subjects moving in mid-air for those three. I was constantly altering the exposure and swapping between spot-metering and area-metering, undecided on which was working best, if at all, in the ever changing light. I took 200+ pictures in 45 mins, and got maybe 5 good ones - but hey, such is life!

More from the Norwich and Norfolk Festival, this time an incendiary outdoor performance of '451', a live-action adaptation of Ray Bradbury's famous novel Fahrenheit 451, by Periplum Visual Theatre.

All shot hand-held on my x100, as ever.

Ha, gutted.

If I'm leading, then super chilled. We're all about being casual at the CCC; winners aren't welcome.

I can't think of any 'indie' groups (apart from @jakjakjak and my nascent CCC (Casual Cycling Club) of course) so maybe it's just worth joining one of the bigger ones - ABC, VNC, or Iceni - if you want regular groups?

I think the biggest draw for those larger groups is that you get consistent times for rides, and consistently good turnouts. The issue with 'us-on-here' is getting everyone together without some sort of formal framework. The mailing list for the Dandy rides worked perfectly, for example, but without something like that, and without someone willing to devise and then lead regular rides in a more official manner, it's always going to be too nebulous to be successful.

I've been tempted to start the CCC 'Dress Down Friday' evening rides - chilled, no pressure, after-work jobbies. Maybe I will.
