right! that was one of the best frickin trix nights for ages. And the twenty or so real rockers who rolled up to the car park lifted my spirits tonight. There were a few patches of ice to watch out for but we had a really productive session. those of you worried about the cold missed out! great stuff dudes.

it's less to do with the cold more to do with having to cycle up 11 miles again just to go to Trixie Dix (when I normally stay over at my girlfriend's place in central).

A lovely night. With cold it's like rain--when you're not in it, it always looks a lot worse than it really is.
Didn't get any tricks done owing to taking ages to 'fix' a puncture (i.e., stick a new inner tube on) on the one night when I forgot to bring my tools. D'oh! Again many thanks to Phil and Chris for loan of tools and inner tube and to Jim who took my tyre off with his hands when I couldn't do it with Phil's tyre levers ...
Really nice to see everybody.

Had a load of fun yesterday, first trixie dix and hopefully not my last.
Damn lockring is getting loose again so takign it to the shop for some tightening.
Good to actually meet some of you guys as well!Someone needs to fix the link on the front page though, that car park isn't the right one which I found out I was told to go to Aldgate etc.

Phil, don't take it to a shop. Google 'rotafix', do that, get your trusty hammer and a screwdriver and hammer the lockring to fuck so it's all tight, bosh.

Looks a bit rough but I'll give it a try :D
If that fails (i.e. if I manage to strip my hub), could anyone suggest a rear wheel/hub/rim under£100?EDIT:
Could this workThis seems like a good start:

BLB sell formula hubs for £30, which are pretty much identical (probably just relogo'd)
saves on postage.

I think Cavendish Cycles sell an System EX (same as Formula) for £25 rear as well.
or just go online and get a pair for £40.

^^Plug comes with formula so I think I'll at least try and get some sort of an upgrade :)

as for rims, if you're not too fussed about appearance, Mavic Open Pro FTW.
Oliver, improve you will.
