  Brilliant, a bike site with pictures of food. I will be back tomorrow with my french onion soup with cheesy crouton things... If you ever find you are not farting as much as you would like, this brown gold is the cure.

  Bikes are cool, its always interesting and/or nice to see a bike. I dont really care what colour they are, and they make great memorials... much more impact than a couple of lines in the local paper, which will be in the recycling box within a week.
  What cycling does not need is a bunch of rules on how to use your bike and what colour it should be.

  Some sweet bike there... but carbon frames just dont get me going

• Chain tension and tensioning a chain

  another tip... make sure your chainring is mounted centrally on your cranks, then you wont have any slack or tight spots.

• Anyone going to the bike show at Earl's Court this Sat?

  I found some crazy stuff in there: a cycle trailer tent that you tow behind your bike, and some real nice looking pure wood bars.
