• If you're after a stress/ anxiety relief tool, last night I built a wheel while listening to some old favourite tunes and having a beer. When building a wheel it's really difficult to think of anything else, so I recommend it if you need a couple of hours of headspace.

  • Just reminded me to bring that new hub home from work - ta!

  • I have an old hub and rim that could do with being built up, nice idea!

  • swish.

    I best pick up some spokes today!

  • I bought some rims and hubs last week for exactly this reason. Just hope they're able to be delivered now...

    This is perhaps the best bit of advive so far, as far as mental health is concerned. May I add that in case you lack wheel parts, go for a solo ride first and rummage bins behind bike shops. My usual Omnium/Wallaroo 50k ride usually yields a shitload of perfectly serviceable if not new parts. A couple of days ago I came home with a brand new front disc wheel with a Deore hub and a Cube-branded rim, presumably because the customer wanted generator lights.

  • Exactly this. Ordered some rims & spokes at the weekend which are out for delivery today.
