Seized pressure gauge

Don't sully this thread with your facts and actual knowledge, it's not how it started and it's certainly not how it should end.

Funny that you should mention that General, because, I'm really mystified as to why I don’t have a girlfriend. In fact I’m so mystified, I’m as confused as Lieutenant Geordi La Forge was, as he examined the Enterprise's faulty warp drive during the season 3 finale of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Haha, great episode

Could it be because 40psi is the right pressure for some riders on some sizes of Marathon Plus?

I was alluding to the massive layer of puncture protection that makes the tyre feel the same firmness at 65 as it does at 85

And perfect for a front and rear respectively, the thumb never lies.

Check spoke tension with your tongue.

I use my thumbs for that too. Shit
<<< Freak

schoolboy error

you should squeeze the tyre from the side, not the rolling surface to guage pressure.

how do you do that with just your thumb then?

would a toe work?

big one obvs

thumb on either side?

or probz thumb and forefinger

Opposable thumbs... on one hand.

ahhh

That's the one.

You have to come from Norfolk to get thumbs like that.

Do I come from Norfolk? I don't believe in maps so have always just tried to figure it out by resting my balls on local badger setts, is this still accurate?

I phoned Spa Cycles once, and had the temerity to offer them money to build me some wheels. Obviously my request was unworthy, and I was made aware of this. Now I spend my money in other bike shops and, even if I do one day want to buy a titanium tourer, I know now not to bother Spa Cycles with my idiotic dribbling. (csb)

Don't mistake snarky comments for humour as well.

There is a world of difference.

Can you elaborate on this please?

the average man's penis is three times the length of his thumb?

It's also far more sensitive, which is why it makes a far more effective pressure gauge than your thumb.

Try it in the shop one day. I'm sure the customers ( if you've not already sent them packing ) will be mightily impressed :-)

I use my tyre pressure gauge mostly on beach holidays as I find that an inadequately pumped lilo can ruin everything. 'You don't ne thumbs to pump up a lilo' we always say.

Sorry, just stood on some popcorn.

Carry on.

My wife and daughter want me to get some orange tires, to further enhance my visibility. I don't want to, but I'm getting quite a lot of pressure.

Sorry.

I happen to like riding and racing old trikes.

Anybody still in doubt that snail is demented?

You ever raced a trike?

Tester once hauled the lifeless body of fallen Hector around the walls of Troy astride a racing tricycle. So yes, you could say he's raced a trike.

You ever raced a trike?

Yes, and I beat it, probably because I was quicker round the turns.
