    Seems to have disappeared now

    There was one that was a buy-it-now for 15 quid that disappeared and I’ve won an auction for another one (sorry, I didn’t share that as I didn’t want rival bids). I’ve had another look and there’s a Cycliq new set for 35 quid!

    I’ve got a roll of suitable

    I’ve got a roll of suitable helicopter tape and it’s nicely transparent whereas a bit of inner tube isn’t.

    I’ve managed to win a bid on a proper Cycliq mount from EBay now, so I’ll be using the velcro mount though I’ll still put a bit of helico tape under it to protect the carbon fibre seatpost.

    What’s the market for used BMW indicator stalks? Do they fit other marques?

    Probably not as they’d swamp the market – you can go to any scrapyard and pick up completely unused ones from BMWs there.

    BMW drivers in Chatham hit by a string of steering wheel thefts

    Take careful note, buildings of Kent. One owner said, “this must have happened on Friday night, I didn’t notice until Tuesday.”

    What’s worse is that 3 months ago, the same thief nicked all their indicators, but no-one’s noticed yet.

    I’ve never heard that before.

    A person who is completely awesome. The very definition of awesome. Simply the best. Better than all the rest. Better than anyone (you know the rest).

    I read the Garuniad article:

    I read the Garuniad article: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/jan/26/self-driving-car-users-should-have-immunity-from-offences-report

    It makes sense to me – the law immunity would only be for cars in full self-drive mode and there will be a distinction made between driver assist and full self-drive. There’s also mention that the cars will need to give the driver sufficient time to react in the cases where the car doesn’t know what to do and that the car should be taking appropriate action (slow down and stop) until the person takes over.

    They’re asking for witnesses

    They’re asking for witnesses/footage, so they’re giving as much information as they’ve got.

    Has there been some comments

    Has there been some comments deleted from here? I recall stating something similar to Dicklexic, but it’s no longer here.

    Thanks – that’d work but is
    Thanks – that’d work but is only half the solution and 3d printing isn’t cheap, so I’d prefer something moulded instead. I’ve found a Cycliq accessory pack on EBay that’s cheaper then buying from Cycliq and most importantly doesn’t have a £25 postage charge.

    I can’t see that link though
    I can’t see that link though I know the kind of thing you mean. Fly6ce uses a one eighth turn fitting. The 3d printed one used that kind of thing – a saddle rail bracket with a 3 prong action cam connector and then a Cycliq to action cam connector.

    I remember the old Fly6 bracket – it was rubbish.

    They’re cute, but full grown cats are just pure evil.
