  • They're being rationed now? I better get in quick on page 13 and 48/17 before anyone else does.

  • if you have enough stamps left in your ration book we also just got in a one-off shipment of scoble-brand pickled onions in malt vaginegar.

  • I don't even have a book, shit.

    i think "vaginegar" is the least pleasant word I've ever encountered. repped.

  • 44/18 gets me about fast enough

  • been riding 48/16, nice and fast, but bit hard on the knees...

  • 49x16 gets me up and down hills no problemo.

  • Get off and push on the flats?

  • switched to 50:16 yesterday. i like it:)

  • 32:16

    Col du Notting Hill

  • I'm on 49x15 since selling my 47 Zen for 25 quid to Malaysian when I was pissed.

  • Fuuuuuuuu I bought you beer too!

  • Hmm... Guilt...

    Is this what date rape feels like?

  • 69:1

  • Fuuuuuuuu I bought you beer too!

    You did indeed ;)

    Never been on the receiving end so I wouldn't know.

    (not tried ghb!)

  • I'm yet to try 48/17.

  • my unicycle is on 48/0 but at zero GI it's quite spinny.

  • Someone's trying to divide by zero here.

  • Had a panic about trying to get up Ditchling Beacon in a few weeks time and threw on 48/21 yesterday. Feels mental compared to 18t, spinnnnnnnyyy

  • Imagine if we could invent some way to be able to switch between favourite gear ratios, depending on hill gradient, or situation. Then you could use two or three favourite gear ratios!

  • That makes sense.

  • I'm currently on 42/17 at the moment which works pretty well around Sheffield and also pretty comfortable out on audaxes. Now that the weather is warmer I'm tempted to bump it up to 42/16 and see how that runs.
