    eBikeTips and off-road.cc

    eBikeTips and off-road.cc still not working on Chrome Version 118.0.5993.89  – however they do seem to work on edge.

    I know that we all know this

    I know that we all know this is the most ridiculous thread in the world… and that it’s been going for a while now.. but is the reporting getting ‘worse’?

    Shouldn’t it be getting ‘better’ since the 2021 https://www.rc-rg.com/guidelines changes?

    Does anyone have a short, strong stock comment/reply we can use to perhaps suggest that reporting cars crashing into things isn’t perhaps following the guidlines?

    The poor driver, getting caught like that.. this must be subversive part of the #waronmotorsts we’re being told about. Be vigilant people and remember you drive how you like to drive and hang the weather conditions!

    It’s always the cars.. never the car pilots doing the crashing.

    Good to hear Ian, tubeless

    Good to hear Ian, tubeless set up correctly just works. 

    FWIW.. if your sealant is still viable from last year.. I’d guess you probably put in an awful lot of sealant. I use approx 40ml per tyre and check it about every three/four months with a small pipe attached to a big syringe (if it’s brown and clear it’s gone off, if it’s milky it’s good).

    At some point we’re going to have to choose between our survivial and the oil companies’ survival and they’re desperately trying to push that point into the future. It’s the kicking the can down the road method of not actually addressing the issues.

    Yes, all of this, 100%.

    Lovely advert though to be fair.

    Ah fair play for the entrepreneurial spirit of this post. Not a bad idea either.. price includes worldwide shipping.. that’s probably adding to the cost a bit.

    I’m ambivent to spoilers

    I’m ambivent to spoilers online.. I certainly don’t want any spoilers (and I was caught out both times over the weekend, once by a road.cc post on FB and other by a Cofidis post, both GAH! moments.. ).. BUT it’s a game, it’s sport and I treat seeing getting spoliers as a bit of a game in itself.. yes, I lost the game on Saturday and Sunday, but I’ll get back into the groove and be winning again soon enough. 

    It’s literally the media’s job to report on these things and get people reading.. the world doesn’t revolve around my late night GCN catch up schedule.

    That is horrendous! The sentence is not appropriate, six months suspended sentence and 100 community hours. No mention of any driving ban or points. I hope that sentence is appealed because it’s appalling.
