Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

It was front mercifully Doog. But you can't just take the front wheel off, oh no.

There's that pre-Byzantine affair for attaching the mudguard to contain with.

Then the horror or the tube change itself.

Then the discovery that you've loosened the arcane nut configuration that keeps the wheel on the axle. Too tight and the wheel doesnae turn. Too loose and it wobbles.

Madness.

Bored with the pain now.

It is London time so my forum footprint will be smaller for a week or so.

It just bores me and build is bad but the week after is even worse

I've got a pair of lace-up shoes. While they tick the 'cool' box they are a PITA compared with BOAs or even ratchets.

I'm imagining that seconds after the picture was taken, the bike started rolling towards the cliff edge and all manner of Some Mother's Do Have 'Em style toomfoolery took place.

That, believe it or not, is Felixstowe. Wanted to get as far as the foot ferry for the old 'end of the road' shot, but not enough time.

Well good for Felixstowe. Weird how these places have nice bits - Harwich has its moments too, mainly towards Dovercourt admittedly.

Can you ride on cycle paths and shit from Adastral Park or did I imagine that?
