Their commute is, according to Google Maps, about 0.4 miles – less than half a mile – to an infant/junior school (some sort of teaching assistant, apparently).
How do you possibly overcome that sort of mentality?
Latest outrage…kids in our street were being ferried door to door in cars last night…to go trick or treating!
I was riding through a housing estate last night, bit of a rat run of course, pavements crowded with children trick or treating, the speed and impatience of some of the motorists was quite shocking. Those haloween costumes very rarely feature Hi Viz and sweeted up children can be quite exciteable.

When I was reading this earlier today the question that hit me was why only couples and why young ones at that?

Recent Perfecto user here, really like it, “perfect” for the temperatures right now, once it gets chillier the Pearl Izumi elite pursuit will be worn, did me right down to the beast last March.

I forgot to mention, when installing new cables fit in some Middleburn cable oilers, that way you can continue to lubricate them and have them friction free for their massively extended life. A fraction of the cost of good cables and will last many sets of expensive cables.

I lube my nokon’s with Finish Line Wet lube, same with my XTR cables with middleburn cable oilers. Bit thick for some but I do ride though filth.
When setting up my rear cable the last time I used Rock and Roll Cable Magic, seemed slick and light. I will be using it when I set up my new Nokons.

It was only 3 or 4 quid, and you might hope that a teacher would be able to handle stress a slightly bit better.
You’re building your dream bike… for commuting?I am also building my ultimate commuter at the moment, surly ogre, trying to sort out hastles with the rohloff, or at least my LBS is. Perhaps not my dream bike, but no comprimises. Ti Jones bar for a start. It’s when I do most of my riding. Also trying to ensure as much as possible that it will last me the next 20 years to get me to retirement, JP Weigly’ed the inside of the frame, hopefully stopping the rot from the inside. Attempting to futureproof as much as possible, and security is going to end up costing a lot. Good luck with your build.
