I had one, but it fell off somewhere in Chopwell. I'll get one from the lbs.

"I average 18mph sustained for 40 mins when doing my commute along the canal on my avalanche with XC tyres. And it's that horrible gravel that seems to sap all the speed. Plus, I have only been riding 4 months. I don't see why 25mph is that hard to fathom."
Indeed! 18 or so usual comfy average, 25mph hell bent on killing my lungs average.

We manage 18mph on our mile muncher ride, Jon clocks that as the average speed on the outward & return legs.

Capt. I dunno much about the law, but if it fell off and got lost in Chopwell, then 1) she wouldn't be able to take it back. 2)If she could find it, she wouldn't need to take it back, 3)You can hold the shop reponsible for you losing stuff.
4) Converstion in Aldi-
10 Cazz:Hello, I'd like to return this bike computer please.
20 Aldi Dude: erm... ok, what is the problem with it.
30 Cazz:It's lost in Chopwell woods
40 Aldi Dude: What???

Well failing that I'm sure Dr Steve will patch me up. Although I'm not sure I'd trust him with BBQ tongs in one hand and a bottle of beer in the other...

You'll have to explain that one. But that kind of defeats the point.

No, I got a wireless Raleigh one off t'internet (brand new though), but couldn't ever get the thing to work properly.

I always though miners let the canaries do the digging - perhaps why British coal is so expensive, those little beaks can't excavate that quickly.

Jon, just leave the spare tyre and 3 spare tubes in the car. That'll lighten your load a bit!
