That would be great!

Taking the Mrs out for dinner at cafe Rogue (it has tables in the sun!), so will see what time we finish.

If we end up making a night of it could I pop over Friday or Saturday?

And thanks Dogsballs for the size.

No probs - give me a bell - I'll be at home this evening and saturday morning.....

I've got a few crank pullers and a load of odd sockets - havent found a crank thats beaten me yet!

may be able to help if you want to pop over later....still got your gloves as well!

I think thats still the current rate....

Might be 2 going, but first dibs me !!

;238074']Same here, I'll check tonight. What length steerer tube do you need?

The headtube is about 14cm - so add about another 35mm or so for headset and anything over about 18cm would be fine (I'll cut it/get it cut) ......if my idea of how it all goes together is right??

cheers

I think I have some
will message you later in the day to confirm

Great, thanks

I bought a set of these a while back (well I got the £15 ones...). But I had issues:

Not bad for what I paid though. Look good.

Did you file/drill them in the end? All work out ok?

bump....one more go before I order online...just in case

(and yes, i'm pretty sure theyre drilled...at least i bloody hope so....!)

I'd be interested to know how it goes - thinking of metallic british racing green for an old tourer....

I gather that the ITV Local website doesn't work for macs - so its up on vimeoas well....

Watched it last night when I got home. Good job Steve quite an inspiring little film.

I like the fact that I can now say I am news worthy! ;)

Glad you liked it!

As was said - youre an ambassador for the cause....whatever that might be!

** OFF TOPIC ALERT **

Looks pretty good to me, any HDV camera footage scaled down to SD PAL is going to look pretty good. I have just bought a Sennheiser MKE 400 for doing interviews, it's highly directional and I can mount it away from the camera (to cut out motor noise) and has pretty decent reviews, but do you reckon I would be better off with a radio mic ?

I actually didn't bother shooting in hdv - I don't tend to find much difference shooting dv and it saves the hassle of downconverting. I work at ITV News and our broadcast stuff is all shot on DVCAM, which is pretty much the same format on tape as DV - same bitrate, just a bit more rugged. We do use fullsize cameras though with bigger chips and decent lenses - that makes far more difference.

The MKE400 is a great little mic - as you say, get it away from the camera to reduce the noise. I'm lucky in that I've got access to various sound kit, but if I had to buy it myself, I'd get the MKE400 with a Rycote windshield and a long cable - that'll let you do most things.

Excellent stuff, I thought the voice over was pretty good.

What camera where you using and did you have an external mic ?

Thanks - it was a little domestic sony hdv - HC3 I think. Always use decent mics - Beyer M58 for voxpops and Sennheiser radio mic for the interview and piece to camera. Shooting/editing i'm fine with...it was the writing and voicing that was a new experience - not one to be repeated in the near future.....unlike the ride - roll on next year - fixed and without camera kit!

Just for anyone who missed it on the Dunwich thread.

My film of saturday's ride....

Excuse the cheesy voiceover...fortunately, it's not the day job!

i'll be there.....need beer....

The video is finally up on ITV Local - cheesy and cliche ridden, but I stress I'm not a reporter/journo/producer-type!

A great night -thanks all. Planning to ride with you all next year rather than having to stop and start the whole time shooting video. Editing now btw.....hopefully be up tomorrow morning.

So I've just been asked to shoot a piece for ITV Local/London - if you see me pointing a camera in your direction it's not neccesarily cos I'm loving the lycra ... oh, and thats my excuse for riding the dreadnaught tourer tonight - it might be heavy, but it least its got the bar bag on for the camera and mudguards for the rai....oh, hang on its going to be a lovely, dry tailwind propelled night isnt it?!

You might find a few fixed rides here:

Might have a job prising them away from Hoy and the like!

I'll be there for August as well - working, but hoping to blag a ticket for some of the cycling!

I need to be there earlier to meet dropout to nab the coach ticket off of him.

6.30? I'll put my number in the phone numbers thread....

I was hoping for earlier - Don't you fancy a pre-ride pint? What kind of LFGSSer are you?

I was planning on having a couple at the Greenwich beer festival first!

Happy to do earlier and have one at the start though......

Anyone up for a southeast feeder ride up to the start pub? Tommy?

Yep Cutty Sark meet?

Cutty Sark sounds good - 7.30 meet? Earlier/later/thoughts?

Anyone up for a southeast feeder ride up to the start pub? Tommy?

congrats mate! definately buy you a pint at southies......

please someone take that image away from me.........!
