    I ate through a set of Mavic

    I ate through a set of Mavic crossmax rims in about 4 months of my filthy winter commute. Got them cheap before the bike boom, specifically to keep some meat on my last set of xc717s. Several sets of cantilever KOOL stop salmons.

    Self entitled residents.

    Don’t they know these are highly trained and tested professionals moving the economic lifeblood of commerce around the country?

    How else is stuff going to show up on the supermarket shelves?

    Perhaps they should stop riding their houses up the inside of these trucks, deliberately into the highly trained and tested professional driver’s blind spots.

    Incidentally what god did you pray to so that your comment managed to move to the top of the thread?

    I believe this is Chuck’s first forum. I’m also guessing that there may be more in a similar vein.

    It’s the unpowered quids I really worry about…

    My evening commute involves army ranges that during the summer are populated with belted galloways, mostly cows and calves, to maintain the heath. The mothers are mostly chilled, but I try not to get between them and the young’un, but it’s the little ones that don’t get me as much. Last year I didn’t see them much as there had been a big fire earlier in the year and that must have been where the fresh growth was. They stick in a couple of bulls in there for a few months. Don’t see them much, I think I can hear them sometimes. I believe I saw one once doing his thing with one of the ladies on the access track, detoured, as I really didnt want to disturb, but this took me through the herd/harem, still concerning.

    Though I understand, from a much watch OU programme (not as much as the one on rainbows), that when a cow is properly on heat other cows will attempt to mount it.

    I do miss randomly switching over to OU stuff late at night.

    I had a mate who replaced his unused bottle bolts with equivalent nylon bolts. Cheaper and lighter than Ti. More for comedic effect though.

    One of the reasons that Police Interceptors is ch 5’s star of cop persuit shows, apart from John Wrong’uns Thompson, is that they always play the “how many times over the limit is this pissed arsehole?”.

    I was reading the fine marina

    I was reading the fine marina Hyde in the guardian today, about the dodgy met, and she linked to a times article, for which I could only really read the synopsis, but it would appear that the head of the IOPC had to resign, and not quickly enough, over serious allegations, sex with a minor.
