Are these any good for casual walking about in? I mean, I have far too many cycling shoes, and not quite sure if/where I'd use these, but they're my size and I may use them if popping to the shops or something....

I reckon mr Barter is someone you should listen to in this respect. My 2p on the subject is: Other online services come and go, often involve subscriptions and change how they work with time/disappear etc. Keep it simple. Bung the GPX files somewhere on your server/host, then either just put a stick...

hacked out a back box, replaced it, and replastered around it (because one of the tabs broke so the socjet was loose :roll: ), Dedicated. :-bd I'd have drilled out the back of the back box, threaded it and and used a longer screw! (Or maybe buy one the several proprietary backbox clip repair things...

That'll take a while to pump up like that!

Having a clearout and these are too good and in too good a condition to just throw out... probably my best condition cycling shoes I currently have! A set of Gaerne MTB shoes - 2 bolt SPD pattern. They're from my XC racing days and a really stiff shoe for optimal pedalling efficiency (they'll be hor...

The safety caps they put on the end of the reinforcement bar on building sites is a good way of getting these cheap (FOC if you speak to a site chap them nicely - they buy them in the thousand and they're pennies). 234316_238504322_83a1ba52.jpg I have been known to put the pole in my shoe if I notic...

I wasn't even born!

Here you go, have a laugh. First time I tried it.... Learnt TLS very quickly...I mean so much so that it was a while before I ever did something similar again. Bikepacking type kit wasn't really a thing or certainly not something I was aware of at the time. Didn't go far, bike was a terrible riding ...

A package that contained the final piece to complete the BearBones lightweight stove collection. Cheer Stu.

Ah, I know where that is!

Gore tex paclite shell - used lots, zip broken, otherwise in good condition for it's age - no rips or tears. Size medium - but it's quite a small medium if that makes sense. Very much a cycling jacket, long arms, bum flap etc. Goretex paclite, think it's something like 2010 vintage! Free to someone ...

I have a Nokia 9 pureview surplus to requirement. The back is cracked, but you won't know that if you keep the case on it. Screen is fine and it's all fully functional, everything works etc. Not locked to a network or anything, you can look up the specs. Can send photos etc. Happy to move it on, mak...

Hi All, 3 years ago I didn't need to worry about this at all and took health and fitness broadly for granted. Last couple of years have been very up and down for me, and I purposely didn't weight myself as I was in denial... Anyway, weighed myself for the first time in years on Monday...69.2kg :shoc...

Bravo!

Fits more than just humans.

May or may not take part this year...we'll see. Winter Event for January - got some shelter in a barn, started in the rougher one where I went up a ladder onto a loft type space with rotten floorboards, a bit sketchy and rough, then when the weather eased off a bit, went and had an explore and move ...

Cheers Stu and Dee,

Had a good time catching up with various people. Had distinctly type 2 Fun riding, but at least I had some shelter overnight. That was hard work, and the rain on Sunday was er challenging... I think I'm keen to do more, not sure yet

Hello Zippy... I love knowing about cars (and particularly yours)... What is it that starts up at the push of a button. Is it turbo charged :lol: It couldn't see one of my camshaft sensors, so it would take a while to crank and fire up..on some kind of slightly safer map as it guessed from the othe...

Well, I think I've fixed the car...it fires up first touch of the button how and computer suggest it's reading the camshaft so I should be there tomorrow :-bd I'll try and gatecrash someone's party, but if not I'll make something up and think I'll be heading Nant-Yr Arian direction or something. See...

What van is it Bob? Ive heard of vehicles doing it when they just need an ad-blu top up - if it's not the EML/check engine light then surely it can't be too serious :grin: My car's been having electrical gremlins, think I've diagnosed it eventually as a dodgy connector, got the connector and discove...

My wife would love the 26er if it's still available.

Happy New Year Stu, Dee and fellow Boners.

This is one of the best places I know and has done me a world of good, I'm truly grateful.
