A simple good old fashioned A-B-C alIeycat: http://www.glasgowfgss.com/discussion/1251/glasgow-fandan-alieycat-sat-27-feb-2010/

Start point (A) will be the gates of Queen's Park on Victoria Road
Points B and C will be in other parks in the city and revealed just before the race.
The overall route is about 6-7miles so should be a fast one.

If any cunt is up for travelling up then there are spaces on floors and couches to be had.

just got back from this, did it fixed. There were a couple of hundred in a peloton at the start but the pace was about 20mph on the flat so it thinned out when it hit the first hills.

Was a good laugh, police looked like they'd only just heard about it as well.

I'll buy him a pizza supper with a glass bottle of bru or bucky to wash it down

Just a quick hijack, i'm out at ventoux for the tour this year.. fancied having a pop at it if i can rent a half decent bike from somewhere in the area? anyone know if this is possible. oh and i will have come directly from four nights at benicassim festival... pure folly?

there's a bike shop in Bedoin on the main street that does bike hire, some ok bikes nothing amazing.

aye and here are mine (on an iPhone - ie shite)

We just got back yesterday. Here are some photos:

rusty are you also D2S rustie or am I barking up the wrong tree?

different rustie

Would I be right in assuming that this is barspin-able?

yeah, and with that gear ratio think of the erm, "epic" skids you could do

I took a wee trip today to the transport museum in Glasgow. Got some bike porn for you all whilst I was there:

1993:

1888:

1950s

1935:

The bianchi pista bars have a very curved top. I switched to nitto drops after I bent my original bars in a crash and find that the tops are much more usable.

saw this on the bbc website.

:O

"Sugino 75 Crankset "

i think im going mad. I swear that link said RD at one point.

Anyway back to the bike porn:

It's defo a Sugino 75 crank, the anodised ones have a different font

http://www.benscycle.net/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=188_429_373

the ones you linked to are not 75s, those are RDs

Don't know bout that bro, the arms don't look like my 75's, and the logo's in the wrong place.

can't be as messenger rings are 130BCD and 75 cranks are 144BCD. could be RD cranks or Zen chain ring though

I'll take one two please. I'll PM you.

one two as in 12. or one too? ;)

I had something like this and it turned out to be this master link in the chain. I noticed it happened once for every 2 rotations of the cranks, then i noticed that the master link in the chain came round once every 2 rotations of the cranks.

It was a stiff link

this was on my screen in work today, no problems once the race got going.
only problem is no sound but you can get that elsewhere easy enough

The only way you would make any where near the asking price is to split it up into parts and sell separately

put it ontop of the bartape (works ok with cloth tape) or get a shim. The two finger dirty harry comes with a shim.

A nice local bike store will probably have spare shims as normally they don't get used when building bikes up and they just end up in a box. i got one for free the other day in my lbs

what is it

a Dolan Pre Cursa
