  Not in a negative way, I just lived up there for a few years. I left a little while back but there was a group starting called recyce your bike, or something like that. May be good for cheap builds, think it may have been down on osney mead near byker. Saying that I could be talking crap

  "there's no I in team"

  Most recently responded to with "are you trying to say I am not a team worker". The facial gurning in response kept me amused for a couple of minutes.

  There is no I in team

  no probs, word of warning though with moustache bars regarding stem, especially if its an old knackered one like mine. have run LOADS of different bar combos on my beater bike and the moustach bars were the only ones to make a really annoying creeking noise from the stem clamp. I recon its becaouse of the leaverage, great for beefing it up hill though!

  20mph sucks if you’re a driver. The average driver during busy times is just trying to get to and from work, or they are working. i don't see why the driver should have to be subject to more rules than they are already, after all that is what we (cyclists) are complaining about, the possibility of being subject to more rules.

  To enforce a 20mph rule to cars everywhere would surly mean that you would have to enforce it to bikes also, and who doesn't ever get up to 20mph down a hill. i actually don't know as i don't have a bike computer/heart rate/gps/twat meter on my any of my bikes (because they look shit), which in turn makes a point, what’s to stop bikes from getting speeding tickets?

  I think the problem shouldn't be about restricting speed, and anyone who uses the words 'health and safety' is talking out of there arse. perhaps having more cycle awareness incorporated into a driving test or some informal advertising aimed at cyclists in the form of billboards next to bike racks which show diagrams of blind spots and dangers of jumping lights. Which 'us lot' are all aware of anyway but might put off someone who cycles rarely trying to copy cat and getting hurt.

  i used to serve it with a Rib eye (on the bone), just roast a section of bone then serve with a little spoon so the customer can scoop out the marrow

  i have a pair of moustache bars, nittos. heading back to england on easter weekend so if you still want some then i can bring them with and do a deal! Postage from sweden is about £20 so not worth posting from here as i only want £25 for them plus 5 for postage.

  give me a shout approaching the easter weekend if your interested.
