It’s getting seriously ugly
It’s getting seriously ugly and vindictive now in the Daily Echo. It’s dreadful that we seem to still be ruled by the noisy minority.
If it wasn’t putting lives at risk, I’d say “fine, go ahead, take out all the active travel infra – then when it’s still motorised gridlock, we’ll all have a good laugh at how stupid you all are”.
You can hear the car culture from the lengths of journeys commenters describe.

I’d be a no to replacing the chainring you pictured. But keep an eye on your chain wear.
You may not have the right spacer behind your rear cassette – it should lock down solid with no chatter, as you say. Jockey wheels wiggle a bit – they’re only plastic on a metal bushing or bolt, not much to go wrong.
drive train clicks under load are one of the great cycling mysteries – the only b/b variable is the l/h crank – is that fully on, with the plastic bolt done up and the fixing two bolts alternately torqued up? The problem is probably arising from some other part of the drive train, so for example Is the derailleur hanger true?

say whaaat! “Deputy Chief Fire Officer Steve Apter said: “Motorists blocking the paths of emergency services vehicles is worse than ever before.”
Fire chiefs say the number of incidents where motorists hinder emergency service vehicles with erratic driving and poor parking is worse than ever before.
They add that these motorists are putting lives at risk by blocking off roads and even stopping on box junctions outside fire stations.”
(no buildings harmed and apologies for the mission creep/ thread drift.)

“One 14-year-old boy, believed to have been in the car, has been located and is assisting officers with their enquiries.”
But officers, you’ve got the car, you know the registered keeper, so surely you can let the lad get back to have studies at school.
How should that be written?

What is the cost in terms of the emergency services’ time in picking up the pieces, day after flipping day? Tempting to say “ok bored now”, but the “cyclists should be made to take a test”, pay insurance, pay ‘road tax’ brigade just keep on coming.
