Oliver. You forgot my apostrophe, which I hold very dear.
I have now got my new wheels. Black Mavic Ellipse. I will only use them on the road until I get me old one rebuilt and then use them for my new track bike. Any ideas how to subtly get hold of saddles, handle bars, cranks and, oh yes, a frame?

Lock your missus in the basement until she agrees you can have a new bike.
That was the subtle option.

I tried that but discovered that we didn't have a basement.

cliveo i'm sorry to hear about your crash on the snow.
Since I'm not allowed in the lab tomorrow, I might go build me a snow bike out of a bmx, a back wheel and several metal tea trays.
it could work!Oxford is under a 'extreme weather warning' for aprrox 4 in of snow.
ridiculous.2 more days grit for the whole country though!

eyebrows. Embarrassingly, my crash was out of the snow, indoors in an underground car park when I was wheeling my bike. My left buttock is skinless. DiRosa tights are very abrasive. My wheel expensively buggered.
Oh well, now for a ride home on my new pretty wheels. Must remember not to brake. Don't want to mess up my new rims.
Be careful on tea trays.

Ohh the fucking ignominy. I had to relent and push for a hundred metres this morning. Couldn't get any purchase on some soft pack ice and when I did the front wheel would dig in and stop me dead.
That's a hundred metres of shame I'll never be able to get back. Where's my reset button.
