  • Wait until you buy a burner

  • sorry for the delay - Yes! One of the last things I did before I left. Was good to properly resolve the fold/roll wrap ...currently using a prototype as a tool roll here.

  • Correction; Definitely this Friday, 10.00am

    Finally tried the new LS jersey, very nice fabric and all, but I can't stand that zipper...

  • My only complaint with the long sleeve core jersey is that in the size i take the arms are much tighter and it's hard to get an LS base layer underneath, especially merino

  • where is your poppy citizen

  • Hey!

  • He does bikepacking too

  • Let they who has not let lockdown affect them...

  • Wish we still had rep :-(

  • Got the Trail Pants.
    Very comfy and airy, closures are great. Sort of a nifty, slide button closure and good side adjusters. I'm an optimistic 32 at the moment and they fit nicely in size M.
    Sadly have a bad cold so won't be trying them on bike this weekend but very pleased with them thus far.

  • Just what I needed to hear... will be buying come pay day👍🏻

  • Have they got a waterproof arse?

  • sorry, I just had time to get to this ...whats up?! There's a newish thread over here if there's anything we can do, I'd love to help.

  • I meant to respond to this too ! my interest in the parachute material wasn't purely academic - I've been trying to suss out if there is an affordable way to source a material to use for separating two parts of an open plan space and then wondered if parachute material remnants might be an option. are they economical or do you have any other suggestions? the issue I'm wrestling with is that the drop is quite high (~3.8m) and so traditional curtains would be $$$

  • Is this an office/studio? If so, you'll have fire-regs to consider with a fabric drop, and although the surplus parachute might be FR rated could be tricky. A thicker wool might be a good option because they have a natural fire resistance, would absorb sound, and hang heavier for less disruption in a working environment? One further problem with a parachute is the panels are usually cross-grain (ie diagonal), making it tricky to sew consistently evenly

    ...even if it's personal space, I'd still use a FR fabric for peace of mind. Worst case doesn't bear thinking about. You can pickup interior roll-ends on ebay, or plain fabrics from theatre/set suppliers with the FR certification for interior use.

  • Winter tights then; castelli nanoflex or the core? Or any other suggestions?

  • Good question, I'm not entirely sure but I'll inspect more thoroughly this evening!

  • Wondering when did you buy your cargo shorts, do they always stay the same, like made in italy, etc.? I got mine in May 2018, wondering if there will be also problems. So far fine and I love the shorts.

  • Got myself with christmas salary a classic winter jersey in black color, really looking forward to get toasted.

  • Smells like trolling...
