Someone dropped a glove last night - I have it, so get in touch.

Does anyone have a spare spoke card? I had to rush off straight after the finish.

How long does this take? I want to have a go, but it depends on how late it runs on.

Has anyone seen this site? You can vote on people's policies and the winner gets £50k to spend on a real campaign. There's no way that you can win on that I suppose, but it's a cool idea.

Just stumbled on one of these on eBay and had a flashback to being 12 and hurtling around the garden on two wheels with my sister clinging onto the back seat. Now I want it, but where the hell will I keep it, and what will I use it for? Dumb idea, right?

Yeah, surprise, or maybe reverse psychology?

Could four people rent it, and sub-let the other rooms on the sneaky?

I hear that the D60 isn't a huge improvement over the D40x, so it's worth taking a good look at it before treating yourself.

A company I used to write for got bought a little while ago, so I got a bonus. Basically I have enough cash for a decent set of hubs, crank and bottom bracket in my PayPal account, and want to spend it on something useful.

You think that's a mish-mash? I've changed my mind on this about 10 times already :)

To be honest, the non-standard chainring thing has put me off the cranks a little anyway.

Debating what to use now - thinking Paul hubs, Phil cog, Phil BB and Campagnolo Record track cranks.

What could you do except hand it in though?

I can think of several ways that keeping one of those could go very wrong...

Cheers everyone, food for thought.

Thanks Seb, that looks like a pretty straight chainline to me. What bottom bracket are you using with that?

What are your thoughts of them, and where did you pick them up?

You going to be bringing that down to South London polo - I promise not to crash into you!

Good work, and no sore arse, major achievement.

I don't know, it just seems that when my shiny new bike is done that it would annoy me. Maybe I'm just being a prat.

Dogs - I looked at those Paul cranks - very pretty - but don't they use non-standard chain-rings?

Bombadil - I don't really want to build up a new bike and have hacks like that, though. I'd like it all to fit together as nature intended if I can get away with it.

Hmm, interesting. Is the Campag Centaur sealed, have you been happy with it?

So Paul hubs & 111mm centaur & Sugino 75s should work, too?

I have my eye on a set of Paul hubs, but I know the chainline is a bit unusual. Will one of Phil's adjustable bottom brackets let me use them with a crank like... not sure what I'll be getting yet, maybe a Sugino 75?

Or would I be better off going for Phil hubs?

Any help much appreciated, folks.

xsheepx damnit i will be on tour :(

What sort of tour?

I don't think I get it either, but it sounds stupid/dangerous/fun.

Wow, doesn't he know that you don't hit girls, or drop litter?

How fast is the ride? Supposed to stay off the bike at the moment, but if it's casual then it doesn't count, right?

Nice idea, if a little rustic.
