    Nice one,
    My bikes all put back together now and the sun has come out for a bit out so I think i'll be heading out on mine later too.

    That's a cool monument/statue thing. What/where is it?

    is it pinned together, or held by the keystone effect all the way round???

    the engineer in me thinks that if it does hold its own self upright then I like it!

    yer, at work today I could deffo feel something in the air.

    however, bitter experience tells me that we still have howling gales and the sleet of february to deal with before we can rest our weather vigilance and lay our winter clothes to one side.
  • Cee, you're having a laugh, you think health and safety would allow that, without it being thoroughly pinned and sittng on piles driven deep into the ground!!

    It looks brilliant. It's nice to be able to take in things like that on a ride.

    I just put them on last night and finished setting up the gears. I only took it out for a quick spin in the wet around midnight so I didn't stay out long but they seem to work well. I like being able to adjust the reach.

    I could do with cutting the cables down but CRC are out of the brass olives until the end of next month so I contacted Hayes and they said they would get a couple straight out to me. Nice of them I think.
