    I got myself a Pedro’s grease

    I got myself a Pedro’s grease gun, which of course only works with their own tubes of grease, which I sort of went off a bit, and was difficult to source. While back, so more what was in the bike shop.

    Moved to Finish Line’s teflon grease. Tube is not made to fit, different thread, but the grease gun is metal and the tube plastic, I can force the tube in, sort of forming a bit of a new thread, tube is a bit scewiff. Works. Or did, got through lots of tubes, but the last two broke at the neck after a bit of use.

    Probably better to have got one with a refillable metal container. Hey ho. I just use cotton buds to apply grease now. Big tub of Park’s for most things. Finish line is only used to pack the Rohloff’s clickbox now.

    Chapeau to the royals for this.

    And this is coming from a staunch republican here.

    The guts required to jump onto an unfamiliar bike, and successfully transition a see saw, and even boardwalk berms are problematic, in front of a crowd and cameras.

    The sentence for the van driver is getting there, and the fourteen and a bit ban almost seems reasonable.

    I remember with great

    I remember with great fondness my rides around brums myriad canals, quite a few link up below spaghetti junction. Giant concrete pillars are the only thing to remind you of the hurriedness and congestion above, whilst below was calmness and green.

    Foot and mouth put a stop to my excursions, riding as far as I could, and either riding back or catching the train.

    Whenever there’s a mass

    Whenever there’s a mass shooting in the land of the free, the first thing that tends to be claimed is that it is not terror related. It is wrong. The only point of a mass shooting is to instil terror.

    Presumably he has got himself

    Presumably he has got himself another fridge, this will have to be installed somehow, if new, you pay for them to take away the old one, or a second hand one, when someone brings it in you ask them to put the old one outside for the council. Unless he expects the council to install his new fridge too…

    Residents vote for parking chaos and are shocked (shocked I tell you) to find parking chaos.
