    Stem interface
    Stem bolts
    Crank bolts
    Pedals into cranks
    Mech bolts holding it frame
    Seat clamp

    Any of the above.

    Large glass of red and a tub of grease and go for it.
    I had the cranks and pedals off and greased just a week ago when I changed chain, bb and cassette after a winter of abuse and neglect. Suspect rear mech still. Hunting for my grease.

    I was going to suggest a few things but seen as you have your 'spanner man'... I'm just going to cross my arms and pout.

    Soz Pinno. I am happy to learn from anyone though, so bring on the suggestions.

    I also have a massive saddle sore. Praps you could suggest something for that, other than the upcoming weekend trailing round @rsing Alton Towers with sprogs meaning enforced time off bike. Sudocrem applied liberally ain't doing much good.

    Dip the bike in old engine oil for a week and rub beetroot on your bits.
    Or is it the other way around...

    Saddle sore - wire brush and paraffin. Sorted - jobs a fish, spotty dog.

    Re bike: take out the bolts holding the front chain rings on, grease them indidually. Put them back in and torque in properly.

    Cleats not worn out - Look do a brilliant squeak when they are.

    Wheel skewers.

    I love it when you pout.

    It makes you all mean and moody and sooooooo exotic. Like a Matahari of Scotland. For a moment I can almost forget that you are a bin man.

    Right, greased all my bolts, stem, chainrings, rear mech hanger, and re-torqued with my cheap Chinese torque wrench. See how that goes. Also found a tub of assos @rse butter which I have applied to my sore butt. Soothing and ever so slightly erotic.

    I've had enough of idiots, going to go and sit by the river and have a sandwich with the Mrs. I think we should ban anyone that uses the phrase "I'm an engineer" to try and make themselves sound knowledgeable. We've insulted one by asking a perfectly reasonable question. I might ask him how fitting washing machines qualifies him to know about old cars. At least he'd have a reason to feel insulted then.

    My sisters a mechanical engineer, yet cant wire a plug. Go figure

    A bit muggy over here. Sure it took about 12.3785964 seconds off my commute to work this morning. It was sans Oakleys though.

    Surely the increased humidity will increase the density of the air due to increased water vapour etc, though the time saving could be put down to the aerodynamic properties of Oakleys, Unless you were wearing something like Frogskins.
    In which case the vorticing caused from the flat sides and gap behind the lens could be causing a low pressure area reducing your drag.

    Its that or I'm reading to much into this after too much caffine and not enough sleep.

    Side note anyone tried Tic Tac breeze they confuse me.

    You're right. I actually meant added to my commute.

    They're jawbreakers, the winningest shades in the classics this year. They make me look so awesome, you would cry!

    No. I have seen enough of those.

    Have I ever told you about "boob cheese"?

    Mingers - both male and female. Real gutter society.

    Generally manky fuckers who don't wash - generally obese, poor diet, poor housing, poor hygiene. You get the picture.

    You pop up their tops to get a ecg and under their moons/boobs/belly overhang (you get the picture) is where all the mank (sweat, dirt, you get the picture) collects and solidifies into a cheese. Boob cheese.

    You have to wipe it off to get an ecg pad to stick. Frickin' vile.

    That and fat sweaty hairy people - wipe the sweat, shave the hair, pad goes on. Vile. Problem is, if you have a cardio, then they will be all clammy and sweaty, so it's a pre-givEn.

    Worst thing about boob cheese is that it doesn't even taste very nice.

    Good plan.

    I tend to collect it in jars and eat it using celery and carrot sticks as a replacement for humus.

    However, on a similar vein. Was talking to a nurse once about 'events'. One particular event was him holding a leg which was being amputated and when it was off, it was still twitching.

    A chap in here was just discussing his moobs, thinking of this thread I asked if he used his moob cheese as a dip or preferred it spread on toast. You'll be happy to know I have successfully appalled all of my colleagues.

    Can I mention a post pubescent catheter that was pulled out of me? 3 hours later, I leaked... not from the usual pipe.

    ...and I kept leaking... and leaking...and leaking.

    That was fun.

    B4stard pecker worked all morning when they switched the tap off for a 'test run'. Then they pulled the catheter out and he had his own ideas.

    Wifey knew about boob cheese, she was a radiographer. Also, people shitting themselves and smelling of pee.
