Any question answered...

File with 'Sky Hooks' and 'Tartan Paint'

Gotta be careful sending the intern out for sky hooks. could be costly.

Be sure to use a metric adjustable spanner when fitting said shim.

Apolololol.

that made me lol

i fancy a trip to flanders to ride some of the classics routes. anyone got experiences of this in terms of logistics, general advice? i don't want to ride the official sportives when the races come around.

We did a forum ride there earlier this year. Here's the thread: https://www.lfgss.com/thread77935.html

Contains various maps and routes and advice. I, personally, recommend the beer. All the beer.

ok I am buying something retrobike forum from someone I don't personally know. It's a fair big amount of money. How do I make sure I am protected as buyer? I have already told the person that I will be paying using paypal goods or services. He has given me his workplace address etc. He is not a newbie on the forum but I am. IF what he is selling is faulty etc. or doesent arrive do I get refund from PayPal?

should be fine with paypal, especially via goods/service instead of the gifts option.

have I seen this on forrun?

The gift option only allows you to avoid fees if you have that amount loaded up on your account.

Amey mentions it is a large sum, so I doubt gift would be an option anyway.

where can I change notes into pound coins, before 9.30 tomorrow morning?

Buy beer that costs £3 with £5 notes.

How do I get rid of shin splints? Today's going to be a long day if I can't stop hobbling.

ok paid the person £450 using "goods", since I have my bank account connected to PayPal, it showed 0 fees. Hopefully the bike will arrive soon and in the condition he described ; )

NurseHoliday expect a PM soon for the forks : )

I tumble-dried my lfgss cap by accident so the peak is warped. How do I get it back to flatness, tumble-dry and sandwich it?

Rest rest rest. Go to a decent running shop and ask them to help you figure out whether you need motion control shoes or what have you.

Im interested in the answer to this too, although I think the result will be nothing. I found when I wear the cap, it flips downwards no problem. But the warpedness does annoy me.

I don't think you'll find any 1" carbon forks with a carbon steerer. I've never seen any. If you want properly light you'll have to spend a lot more than £160.

mizuno fiandre full carbon fork in 1" have just finished in ebay for sub£50. Iirc they're one of the lightest 1" forks around.

Pretty sure I also saw a website selling them.

My friend just won those forks!

You rate them?

Thanks - I thought the answer might be to rest, which I can’t really do until tomorrow so I'll just have to annoy people with my shuffling cripple gait all day today. I do have motion control shoes for running but got shin splints walking yesterday (that’ll learn me).

For short term solution. I found keeping my shins warm helped. SO maybe wear some rugby socks or something like that. I would also consider wearing your motion control shoes for walking too if you are doing that much,

Hope you get on ok!

3 years ago I got a suit from ASUITTHATFITS, it was awful. They were just starting up though.

I highly recommend SuitSupply.

Anyone had experience with iTailor? Or Tailor&Store?

If the claimed 295g is accurate, that is very light.

I used http://www.dress2kill.com/ for my wedding suit. That was in 2004 though, so I don't know what they are like now, but they were fantastic then. I still get to wear the suit every now and then.

I've got super warm hiking socks on today and took the train to work instead of walking. If I walk again next week I'll wear my running shoes - either that or my hiking boots. It's amazing how sore it is, I didn't realise how little I walk normally!

How safe is it to lock up around Mare Street/Hackney Empire while I go see Squarepusher tomorrow? im guessing not very, but public transport is looking like an epic ballache...hmmm...(stupid east london)
