Not for me.... Flight to Seattle cancelled. What a ball-ache.

Time for http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7koduZSD9A
?

I withdraw my abuse.

Nah it's OK - leave it where it is - taking it out might cause further trauma :)

that might be the best argument against motorbikes in bus lanes i've ever seen..

Would've been going 60mph and got through before the car, innit?

(not serious)

Good luck with any claim you might make, gaz - bad luck with the collision. I quite like your videos, which give a pretty good illustration of a London cycle commuter I reckon. Keep 'em coming.

Hope your back fixes itself soon without needing any treatment.

Ta Mate.

Ah - I just equated the two really.

In that case I agree - full on legalisation and regulation or nothing. Going to some kind of half-arsed midway point where the rules are vague does nobody any favours.

The gherkin's quite a sight - the wind whips around it at the best of times and now the square looks like a snowglobe with flakes going in all directions

YES! I'm totally for decriminalisation.

ftfy, I think...?

Anyone showing even the slightest amount of bare flesh in this weather is either mental, extremely hard, or fleeing assailants.

+1 mental?

O RLY?

Just got back from the pub - left my credit card there AGAIN

I think the table got a free drink or two

The Scotch Malt Whisky Society. Have to be let in by a member though and I think each member can only get 2 in.

Not going tonight.

We could've done with your mad quiz skillz - we lost by one measly point!

I still have some of last week's quiz profit

This did not go unnoticed

well so far it's me + a beer. Some pizza-eating family has commandeered our corner table!

Interesting read in this months British Medical Journal about bicycle weight and its effect on commuting time...

The power required to overcome drag on a touring bike—steel, carbon or chocolate framed—at 15 mph (24 kph) is about 170 watts.

Are they listed in increasing rigidity?

I wonder how chocolate frames respond to crash damage - tastily, I imagine

Also:

I toyed with the idea of blinding it but, in the interest of self preservation and other road users, decided against it.

I doubt it'll be of interest, but I have a 13T 1/8" sprocket designed to go on a freehub-type splined body. Bought it and realised it was too chunky for my chain so it's unused.

To save the hassle, it sounds like a new sprocket is the way to go - unless you're well hard up, that is.

Found an old memory card, Max?

Nice site - I think I prefer it to http://www.weatheronline.co.uk/ although that does have an alright radar map.
http://www.wunderground.com/ has an interesting concept - amateur weather stations, all reporting in. Tons of information there...

Morrisons seem to have a Chocolate & Vanilla Stout. Just bought a bottle and by 'eck it's basically a beery dessert.

repost?

Depending on the sprocket and whether or not it's dished, you might be able to flip it around and use it for a little while longer

If you find accurate meteorology and forewarning distasteful please return to hanging fish from your clothes line and doing a rain dance.

MK it might have to be.
It won't.
I'd rather not board than go to MK.

Hemel > MK, but neither compares to a real mountain.
Not been to Eastern Europe, but I believe you want the World Snowboard Guide and the internips.
Flatmate who went to slovakia said it was nice enough but only a few runs and not that technically difficult so a bit boring for him.
I get the impression Bulgaria's the same but I'm not sure.
Went to... Bormio? In italy with school and remember quite liking it but it was nothing compared to my latest 'proper' trip to Tignes, which probably doesn't count as cheap

6-7ish usually

Watch out kids - roads are super greasy tonight.

Quite a few front wheel skids today, and that's with the grippy tyres!
