    Has anyone watched The Umbrella Academy?  Any good?

    I quite enjoyed it. It has you guessing about how it will spin out.

    Really enjoying Money Heist (sub titled) where a Spanish gang rob the Mint. Now that really keeps you guessing.

    My LBS, the mechanic wanted to fit parts bought elsewhere as he knew they couldn’t compete on parts, only the manger didn’t agree.
    Mechanic set up his own repair shop.
    Seems a sensible way to work in this online age.

    Make sure only you know the password, otherwise your kids friends maybe logged on, locking you out (well until you login on a pc and kick them off ).

    If you’re in the mood to “waste” lots of money, then I can recommend the Dynaplug Racer tubeless kit – works really well and is in a conveniently small package: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07MH9K4NR
    Now that is a beautiful piece of kit. I am conflicted with hoping not to have to use it with wanting to use it.

    I also have a topeak mini morph g which is a little too big for a jersey, but you could attached it to the frame. It does inflate well.

    A word of warning. I easily found a form on Essex county council site but they had in bold 90% of claims are rejected.
    It depends in part when they knew and how bad the pothole was at that point.

    The website is crap.
    The website is crap.
    I did a search for highways claim and nothing obvious, although 2 results were 111% relevant.
    Unless you can go in person, I’d fill in the form you had as a starting point. This may give you a contact number or team.
    Clearly they don’t want anymore claims.

    Cant see any reason not to wear a helmet,  My story is i always told my kids to wear a helmet,they would moan,they would whine. Then one day i have to go into work for a meeting on my day off. I jump on my bike (BMX) and off i cycle,then whoops i’ve forgotton to put my helmet on. well i think to myself i’ll be ok.i ride slower,miss the drains and pot holes,no jumping off the kerbs! So i get to a staggered crossroads and im waiting at the junction. Then bang! a car on the opposite junction hit me because he cut over to my side of the road. i was lucky,the back of my head did not hit the road,Saved by the ruck sack on had on my back. The one time i never wore my helmet!

    I take from that – your risk appetite increases with safety equipment, the rucsac made a  difference, there are crap drivers about. Did you consider you would have hit your head with a helmet on as your head would have been bigger?
