I'm not climbing for another few weeks yet due to a wicked tendonitis, but I'm about 10 miles from Castle Climbing wall (I'm in Potters Bar). How do people rate it for bouldering? There seems to be a good few people using Castle, might catch up with you sometime.

EDIT - scratch that, just found their on-line vid, bouldering central. Come on fingers!

EDIT - Come on fingers? that won't help.

Potters Bar?...not too far from here then?
http://www.phaselswood.org.uk/climbingwall.html

used to go here loads...really must get back into climbing...

someone snap this beauty up!.....i own one, and cant rate it high enough, lovely sprightly ride....dont find it too stiff meself...in fact it suits my bad back just fine....

damn...i was hoping the OP's question meant"what the fuck is it with this obsession with tweed?"........alllowing me to spout forth a bile-inflected stream of abuse about Faux Edwardian twats with fucking stupid taches and a hankerin for the good old days of Empire when women and ethnics knew their place and you could happily use the word "gay" before the homo's commandeered it.....

;)

My expert opinion is probably.

If it was me I'd do it. Otherwise they would use a replaceable hanger in the first place

^ what he said....Ti has a much higher "modulus of elsticity" ( think i got that right) than steel, and can be bent/flexed many many more times before it fractures and breaks....which is why you dont need a removable hanger....any decent bike shop should be able to do it for you....

any injuries? sounds like a lucky escape indeed...nightmare!

Has anyone looked into or found a solution for recharging a GPS when away from mains power and without a hub dynamo?

Most of the chat on CTC seems to be about hub dynamo

this any use? i imagine its compatible with other brands ( if you cut off the Nokia plug and soldered on the relevant one for your phone...?)

these are good too...only £17.99....way cheaper ( and more waterproof) than the Dahon ones....fits a Nokia N8 as well..
