hi

I sometimes reply with a link to this: https://www.nohello.com/

It doesn’t stop them doing it.

I’d like a shot of someone cycling whilst wearing it in this fashion.

I genuinely don't think I've seen a fuschia bin before.

Leonard Fuchs is long dead, but I’d like to think that the spinning coming from his grave powers a nearby town:

I used to use [the dangleway] daily on my commute.

That makes you one of a very select group, did they send you a Christmas card?

These biscuits are dead easy and very very good: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2007/feb/17/features.weekend1

Update: made the biscuits

Numbers 1 and 3 might also be interested. Our bin night is Sunday; already looking forward to Monday’s rude awakening.

I don’t think the cable is around anything other than the D lock

Something like this really ought to be a thing for bicycle mudguards: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/164151942652

Why does snow look more dense IRL then thru a lens or a photograph?

Here is a good explanation: https://youtu.be/ywGLrg1HOS4

I will need to choose a font and make a stencil

I know of just the thing: https://www.fontspace.com/rubbish-font-f28142

Did this ride ever happen? I came across it during a search, and a year/50 pages of posts ago…

Anyway, apparently Bill Leach had a workshop that was somewhere near where Stratford station is now, and a shop at 187 Leytonstone High Rd, which is now a post office. Ref: http://www.classiclightweights.co.uk/builders/leach-marathon.html

I live near there, and renovated a Leach Marathon my neighbour had built for him in the early 50s—fixed wheel, pics here https://www.flickr.com/gp/rsstephenson/tT550m

Up for a ride once lockdown is less locked down.

SOP: copy the FT URL, and search for it with Google. The first link in the results should take you to an Amp page where you can read the article. This link works for me without any of the above shenanigans though: https://ig.ft.com/coronavirus-chart/?areas=usa&areas=gbr&cumulative=0&logScale=1&perMillion=0&values=deaths

Hmm. It’s literally a stone’s throw from the beach, if you’re oriented correctly.

Cheers, I’m very fond of it. It’s stainless.

I just used rye flour and water. Could dry some and post you it I suppose? PM me your address if you want to give it a go

I don’t have an especially heavyweight Brompton (6 speed w/ mudguards but Ti), but it still pays to think if it’s worth doing the unfold/roll/fold manoeuvre—it doesn’t take very long, and gets faster the more you do it… no help for stairs though mind you… a long train platform though, I’d be unfolding & refolding if I had to.

[…] adopt a supine posture staring at the floor.

Perhaps with ones legs akimbo?

I had a rattling issue; used UHU to stick 1cm lengths of slitted 5mm clear PVC pipe around the mudguard rims where they used to contact the forks and seatstays. Pic here: https://www.lfgss.com/comments/15034066/
