Any question answered...

It would take too long. I'd need residency at Gyno first.

Email from my dad earlier today- what does it say?

"Imago bufonis domi bufonis vehementer excellens sed, filius, cave carros
telespectatorum Gallorum, ita vero, io!"

WTF, either your father is a pervert mental, or google translate is up the spout.

Actual translation is:

The picture of Toad of Toad Hall is exceedingly good, but, oh son,
beware French television cars, yes indeed, yo!

In response to me sending him this picture of me on the Tweed Run:

I have used acetone before with no ill effects.

be cautious though because some rims have a varnish/clear coat/protective layer on them that will rub off with the acetone. One of my team mates tried to use acetone to rub some glue off the sidewall of his rim and rubbed this off which left him with a shiny spot on an otherwise matte rim. the opposite could happen as well.

Acetone is great and it removes oils very well. I use it to clean panels before spray painting. Its better than thinners IMO.

As jayloo said is very aqua'd down as it really smells, hence (buying some on friday superdrug and savers only had acetone free.) usually shops sell acetone free.

I wouldn't know about that, sir.

This bit on the moped is just about the funniest thing I can remember:

YouTube - ‪The Fast Show - Ted & Ralph 16 Ride in to town‬‏

Ah, that makes sense.

In other news- fuck my bike is fast now, and it makes an awesome noise with the new wheels.

and this is why tubulars are awesome.

I have Sram Apex on my cross bike, which has a long cage rear mech.
If I wanted to upgrade the mech, there are zero options within the road range as higher than Apex you only have short cage mechs.
So- would a Sram MTB mech work with my shifters?

Yeah, I can make brrrrrrrrm brrrrrrrrrm noises with my clinchers, so?

yeah but there's no Whhhhrrrrr noise.

I have carbon wheels for that. Tubs don't make any specials noises, ya fuckin' freak.

stabs eyes out

to be honest I've only ever ridden tubular with carbon wheels, so shows how much I know.
