    I do hope you did not have quite so many injuries.

    Was the rim bit spotlessly clean before fitting?  Any traces of old seal might interfere a bit.  Or any other crud.

    The diluted washing up liquid helps with general seating.

    Sorry to ask, but how do I turn off notifications?  I clicked yes and now am beginning to regret it a bit.  Just getting a bit annoying.

    Unfortunately this is Reading

    Unfortunately this is Reading, and I’m thinking of you, Tony Page, who spent huge amounts of money painting and then removing cyle lanes that didn’t come up to their already low standards.

    And put (and then had to remove) NO CYCLING signs on their own cycle routes through the town centre.

    Though once again, thank you for your incredible knowledge.

    A very fine and comprehensive answer Zermattjohn, but I do fear that if I were to bring it up with Reading coucil they would go for the option of plastering the area with blue CYCLISTS DISMOUNT signs.

    I too have one of these near me, when they modernised the crossing, formerly an old style pelican with lovely high red and green man opposite, they made it a low down same side toucan, but there are no shared use facilities going along the pedestrian pavement.  Thing is it’s almost on the NCN 5, also the R40, where it comes off the Thames and hits Church Street, Caversham.  The signposting is all a bit confused and if you’re going up the hill, away from the river, the directions just sort of stops.   Better coming down from the Chilerns towards the river.

    really want this light.

    Exposure Optix All Terain STVZO, so German spec road lighting (Damn those sensible europeans) STVZO compliant, which means not dazzleing oncoming drivers/riders, but gives 3300 lumens when you need it when bombing down the riverbed syle bridleway that goes down a mountainside.

    Bit road, bit mountain bike – all Gravel?

    And to prove a point, I get this one on the top of the Live blog.

    I do hope someone got some money (no matter how minute) for this pointless bit of completely undirected marketing.

    I am always suprised at the number of car adverts I get, especially of the more ridiculous powerful/beheamoth models.

    Never driven, don’t want to, my only browsing has been to how badly mator vehicles are being driven.

    I don’t think I have ever experienced a dodgy duracell coin cell, I avoid the cheap ones, always buy from supermarkets, it’s one of those things that gets conterfeited.
