    Maybe it was just self isolating.

    Holy thread resurrection batman :)

    This place might experience a revival when nobody has anyrhing else to do. There's not even MOTD on a Saturday night now, so even the squares will get bored...

    Apparently no revival - but it is early days of lock down
  • Recently bought a pair of Supersonic tubes, along with 23mm (front) and 25mm (rear) GP5000 tyres to fit on the Cube's Hunt Aero Disc Light wheels.

    Thought I was going to save them until proper summer arrives.

    Getting tempted to fit them today and go for a short solo ride, before my household isolation shows coughing symptoms like my better half, on what should have been the start of annual leave that work won't give back even if I display full cv19 symptoms. Plus who knows if the UK will go into full lockdown shortly.

    But then bike will feel quicker, even while I have to be restrained, if I also fitted new chain; 11-34 cassette; r7000 GS rear mech; at same time as fitting the new tyres and tubes.

    But then that requires more time and could go wrong...

    Oh the quandary!🤯

    As the thread has been self isolating for nearly 7 days I guess it's safe to post in here again :) bg, if you're still alive give us a sign...

    Day of meh, rain, and essential shopping services for the elderly (mum). Bought a used HT frame and fork for a project to play with when it arrives. Then it can gather dust like the rest of them...

    Would we notice a difference from normal times?

    Felt like a long weekend to me: Easter is going to be tricky. Mind you, might have to do a bit of work over Easter as we're in year end season.

    Not year end for us but closing that many branches and furloughing staff like crazy that I imagine the laptop will be opened far too much.

    Fingers crossed that will be offset by good weather

    Well the weather is pretty good...

    We furloughed over 1,000 a couple of weeks ago in the sales operation. Managed to avoid furloughing any of my lot as we're just as busy as usual.

    Soon I hope, although I get even older on Saturday. Think we might just have a quiet one and stay in.

    How come they can't capitalise censored at the start of a sentence? To say I'm disappointed is an understatement.
