  • thought so, similar price made me think that. decent commuter pedal then?

  • Yeah. Make sure the tension is nice and tight though (it's very adjustable). I have managed to unclip from them going up hills just pulling very hard.......which was fun

  • I've been commuting on a pair of those for a couple of years damo. That's a good price for them too, definitely worth it.

  • cheers people.

    me too.. at a cross junction. lights turned to green, i nearly went over the bars. lesson learnt. tension tightened.

  • [/never unclipped from aliums despite awesome hamstring and hip flexor power]

  • ^There might be something in that.

    I've got SPDs, and I sometimes get a little unclippage when at maximum uphill welly.

    Then again, there's always someone with a "Well you might think they're spiffy, but I've...". I've half a mind to take myself with a pinch of salt.

  • Oh gawd, I missed this so I could be at home with my beloved, without the kid at home, for the evening.

    We argued.

    I made chutney.

    It was rubbish.

    grrrr.

  • "made chutney"

    sweet, sweet, chutney?

  • He *packed *his fruit/*vegetable *into a *jar, *and then added fluid.

  • Skully's a Chutney?

  • also:
    "i haven't touched a child in three years"

  • I usually find that when opting out of a ride in order to 'spend quality time together', a row is on the cards because I'll be a bit fidgety, and she'll pick up on it and start saying, 'you should've gone out on your fucking stupid ride with your *forum *friends then, you cunt'.

    The option that's worked better, is to promise to 'make sweet sweet chutney' on your return from the ride. You'll be completely wired, and a bit feral from charging around the lanes in the darkness, and therefore perform like a fucking animal, or as James Brown called it, a machine for the facilitation of sex. She'll be ecstatic, and you'll be able to get to sleep post-ride (post-ride).

  • ^feel free to change genders in the above post - the TNRC is not a male-specific* domain.

    "i haven't touched a child in three years"

    I said 'baby'

    logs off for a few weeks

  • @BMMF: you should write an advice column. you'd destroy dan savage.

  • I said 'baby'

    I thought you used the catch-all term "kid"?

    ^^this^^

  • Haha at all this^^

    Yeah I should have known it would be a washout.

    For the record, I couldn't have made chutney after the ride, it takes three hours to reduce properly ... yes I really made chutney. It turned out crap, really bitter. I think the plums I gathered from a hedgerow were too tart. Doh. I'll give it my final verdict tonight but I have a feeling I'll be throwing it all away.

    I just said all that to raise the tone a bit and to assure any casual observers (or goth observers for that matter) that I really did attempt to make a preserve last night.

  • I'm still wired and bit feral

    You may want to change the position of your saddle.

  • guilty for the head to toe rapha.

    Ah ha, I shall attempt to commit this to memory. Nice to follow your spinning legs down hill!
