Another back logo, another tipper truck, another poor woman. It almost makes it worse that it's the same cause and demographic. So sad, so it goes (the vonnegut morning method)

Found one!!! Got done by two money grabbing ones in the proccess.

Awesome, runs off the terminal and works. Will donate.

Oh and it's for a mac. Finding lots for PC but the mac ones are shit.

I know this has been asked before but I'm struggling.

I need to use some card recovery software to find some videos my 4yo deleted. All the software I've tried so far leads you on a merry trail before dropping a $40 bill before you can get anything useful.

Does anyone have something I can use, or know of software that is either cheap or free?

Horrible news. I used to ride thatpart of the south circular with kids so often.It's a nasty bit where there is a hole in cycle routes and it is very difficult to avoid the man road. Drivers also go a bit loopy trying to make it across from alleyn park road too. I feel so sad for the ladies family.

Thought I'd ask this here as it might just solve my problem.

Basically the power supply for my external hard drive has just stopped working. Does anyone have a spare?

it's a 6 pin 5-12v one. They seem to be £15 for a new one which is more than a new hard rive enclosure. Annoying.

So now I took the levers off after taping the clamps

and then screwing them secure in the right place (slight wiggle was possible later but not a lot) from the front

After some fun tape weaving (the underside was a right arse) I got to here

where I encountered

I just stuck it out of one of the joins in the weave and hope it would be ok. It actually was when I got the hoods back on, the cable pulled on the tape making a bit of a hole but it was all covered by the lever. The clamp was a bit more tricky, this messed the weave right up

A snip about 3/4 across the the tape allowed a detour, though it meant you couldn't put any strain on the tape. A careful hand are needed to restart the weave.

The back is a little ruffled but ok.

Most importantly I DIDN'T BREAK THE WEAVE!!!
So keep going, tuck in the end and we have

I haven't done the other side yet as it was late and took fucking ages. The quality of the wrap is ok, probably could have been better if I didn't do it far too late in the evening and took the bars off to get better access to the bottom of the bar which was a right arse.

Now for some taping. First work out which colours you want to be little triangles at the start of the wrap, and which to be the first full squares. I wanted blue as the first squares soooooo, blue first with the other 'apearing' colour

with the slanty cut parallel to the extra bit of tape (gaffa in my case). Now the next layer.

Here you need the next layer to cross the previous at the edge of the gaffa tape and the slanty cuts to be on the same parallel for both layers. If you don't understand you're probably not geeky enough to ever bother doing this, so meh.

Now onto the bars. I want the first blue square to be at the top of the bars so I made sure it was there, and also on top as that made sense when it came to the next step. I had to start this a few times and do some head scratching and hand waving.

Now to fold the grip tape over and start the weave. This weave is complicated and the grip tape WILL stick to something it's not meant to (usually itself) before you get it in the right place. Here is a bad photo of the first fold:

Here goes a big long post about my latest bar wrap adventure....

So double harlequin with aero levers on moustache bars with no interruptions and a perfect start. We'll start with unwrapped bars with taped cables (sorry about shitness of photos this was done late with no real photo skill).

Now to get a seamless start there needs to be some clever tape folding going on. I've seen it done by simply folding the tape but I failed at this. I used an extra bit of tape and some considered snipping. Step one find the diameter of the bars with a bit of paper

fold this length in half (as two bits of tape per wrap, don't fold in half for single harlequin) and use the half length as the hypotenuse of a slanty snip on the end of a bit of tape
.
Do this in one direction for two rolls of tape, the other direction for another two (or one each for single harlequin).

Another sad day. Brings it all back me, horrible. RIP rider.

I've caught up on the last 4 or 5 posts. Great stuff. I even managed to read a bit of the supermarket one to my wife and she actually laughed. I didn't read it all as the slightly negative female depictions would have pushed her into a rage (I was also disprupting her facebook time). i on the other hand enjoyed them.

The Prince Regent in Herne Hill.

it's going to be rammed :(

Rammed with sports-talkers.

So this or lmnhs? Which is best/worst for rammedness/beer/scotch eggs? Do lmnhs still do scotch eggs? That might swing it.

People talking of watching thursday stage at the reej. Where is this mysterious reej? what is it's real name?

Might be up for this if I'm awake enough on the day/night.

I'm also quite excited by it all. Awsome project.

This is an amazing thread. Thanks for so much detail. I've enjoyed seeing bamboo bikes. The idea of a homemade bike really inspires me to make one myself.

open prison bars gone

Updated OP and a bit of a price drop

Good work UCL Eduroam. Strong enough to support a stream.

If you're not working then why not leave and come to lmnh's?

That's what I did today, permanently, printed final thesis and handed back my office keys, wierrrrdddd

Yep the gusset bars are available. Drop me a pm if you're interested.

I must say I'm very much enjoying the Giro this. It seems much more no-nonsense than the tdf from last year. Actually yesterdays stage had more excitement than most of last years tdf put together.

Now if only I managed to get to watch more than just 3 minute satge highlights in italian. Where in town shows the stages live? lmnhs I guess.

Pm's replied to, can all dibs etc come in pm's, the thread is too confusing. Also it's only for collection in peckham at the moment. I might be able to meet elsewhere up town if it works but I don't out much at the mo.

Might consider posting later on if noone wants to collect.

I'm having a fiddle at the moment, just tried to post a video link https://sandbox.microcosm.app/conversations/14/

Is there a markdown language for video or photo embeds yet?

Something like flickr or youtube perhaps? I tried to do ti on the thread but it all went weird.

If this sort of thing isn't useful I'll stop. Looking good so far.

This is amazing
