I have a nelson longflap and use the QR system that includes a nifty little strap for carrying the bag when it’s not on the bike.
what strap is this you speak of?

^^^^^^ this thread has take a tern for the worst.
-
ha! well good.

really liking this:
-
I genuinely thought that was James Corden at first glance.
-
that bloke really is bonkers. it was a real 'like a boss' moment when he regained control and stopped spinning.
-
when I was a kid I can remember thinking this was about as cool as things got. I'd still do bad things for a hover board.

Where does this appear please, I've not found it yet (probably reading things in the wrong order). Ta.
It's in Leipheimer's testimony. His wife was texted by Armstrong during the Tour, which he knew Leipheimer was riding, asking her if she was in California.
Sinister.
ah right.
-
The text messages from Armstrong to the wives of riders asking where they were when he knew their husbands were riding the Tour are particularly sinister.

sorry that's massive.

That red cross check is a beauty, really well done.
What have you done with the brakes? I might just be missing it in the pics, but I can't see the travel-agent style things you post in the current project thread - have you fitted them? If not, how are you getting the v's to work properly?

^sigourney weaver?

Sorted. Got cyclesurgery to price match the evans sale. So, reduced price + my vouchers = an Abus Granit 54 x-plus for £20 of my own money. excellent.
-
ah, thanks. I obviously didn't search very well. I'll be avoiding that then. As it's only an extra £20 I think I'll go the tried and test route of a Kryptonite NY 3000, Cyclesurgery don't seem to sell the M18.
-
Thanks. I've actually got some vouchers to use (turns out they are cyclesurgery, not Evans as I thought) so need to buy in store.
-
does anyone have any experience with an Abus Granit 53 'london' u-lock? It looks pretty decent and is on sale at the mo in Evans.
edit: should say it's to be mainly used in conjunction with a kryptonite mini evo 4 and cable.

This is my crosscheck with newly fitted front rack from SJS. All I need to do is fit a grippier tyre on the front and I'll be set for the inevitable bad Autumn / Winter weather. Front rack is mainly going to be for carrying locks etc on days when I'm filling my carradice (which I seem to in the winter, having to carry bulkier clothes), so I figured spreading the weight would be wise. I also like the way front racks look. This one was only £15, and for the money I'm impressed with the quality, it's also not too heavy (290g) and unloaded I've not really noticed a difference to handling.

^that is ace.

Being heard by cars would be a definite advantage. Example of this is this morning someone was slowly rolling backwards towards me at some lights. I honked my horn - nothing. Shouted - nothing. I ended up having to get my bike out of the way and knock on their window for them to have any idea that they were moving. A loud horn would have made things a lot easier.
In my experience whether it's a bell, a horn, a whistle, or even a megaphone (anyone else seen that chap, often to be seen around St Pauls?) pedestrians nearly always take it as a 'get out of my way' like they would if a car was beeping at them.
