Wait, Krisboats is still alive?!

Roughly £20 a month (~$26) gets you 'super fast fibre' which is up to 60MBps or so.

I've got a Koozer hub on the back of my slopestyle bike (the Evo one with the steel axle) and it seems pretty good but does occasionally skip slightly under light load (never yet under heavy load). I probably wouldn't trust it on a trials bike but then that's me and it obviously depends on your type of riding.

Is that per month?!

To be fair to them...

There wasn't anything street trialsy in that, anything that looks like street trials is because it's been borrowed by trials. To be fair there was a long time when street trials was known (at least on here) as shit BMX...

I did giggle when Max was throwing his toys out of the pram and then even more when he had to retire. Ferrari are looking very strong though and LeClerc seems like a really nice, genuine dude so good luck to him.

So where do we buy these blessed rocks?...

Just finished watching the latest 'Drive to Survive' series and that last race still pisses me off something chronic. Seeing the rest of the season again it is clear that although it came down to that last race there were a few points in the season where Lewis/Mercedes cocked things up and determined the outcome.

It was more the overall numbers. In the UK the 'official' deaths linked to COVID to December '21 was ~150,000 yet the ONS numbers showing COVID as the only cause of death was only ~6000. A huge discrepancy.

Mazepin sacked and HAAS's Uralkali sponsorship severed. Lol. Can we have that 'Drive to Survive' episode now please, Netflix?...

f**king Russians

It's amazing how many people make lives difficult for themselves. People were telling us that we should be actively waking the kids every three hours (or whatever) during the night for feeds but from day one we (well, Mel as she breast fed both of our boys for the first six months) would only get up if they cried and were actually hungry. I think both boys were sleeping through the night (like 11pm-6am say) after a week. Why you'd ever wake a sleeping baby is beyond me. Likewise we have a friend who has a 9 year old who still unplugs the phone, mutes the TV and puts their mobiles on silent until 9pm when the kid's well and truly asleep. The child's never slept in a different bed without her parents around either which will just be a nightmare when it comes to school residentials or trips etc. Our boys have slept everywhere from tents to hotels to airplanes to campervans since they were a few weeks old so we just don't have any issues with separation anxiety or being in a known bed etc. But yeah- whatever feels right for you...! Kids are wicked fun though, hard work sometimes but great fun.

Overall awesome and nice vid but two things... 1) red is an odd choice for the sand frame and forks and 2) I really don't like or trust torque wrenches! I've never owned one but there isn't a single part of me that wouldn't want to get a normal allen key after tightening those bars etc. to just check they're what I think they should be! Enjoy the bike!

Ouch!

Out of interest, what sort of price are you looking at for a full set of BERDs?

Don't forget the barspin. That is full on video game stuff. Crazy.

Time for a new bike then! I don't think the n+1 rule even comes into play when a new riding venue like that opens up nearby!

Seems to be sorted now. Cheers Danny!

It does pick up a lot of crud so it definitely does something. If it prolongs the life of the bearings and stops quite so much crap getting stuck by the BB then it's worth it!

But you're not paying, right?... Sounds like a win to me!

It's going to be very interesting to see what the history books say about Covid in 20 years for sure!

I think if our extension hadn't happened during the first lockdown it still wouldn't be decorated now! Enjoy!

I may have gone full retard... Not sure on the colour but fancied a change so here we go. Still the same medium 2015 Whyte T130 Works SCR, bought with Chris King Hubs etc. Now single speeded with a home made XD setup using waterjet cut spacers and the lockring from a dead XD cassette; mini MX handguards with 3D printed brackets that hang off the SRAM Matchmaker jobbies and integrating the dropper post lever on the left; trying out some of these thumb grip things for fire road grinding (Aliexpress specials for £3 rather than the expensive 'proper' ones). Still waiting on some desert camo decals for the forks and shock. It's a bit special...

But is it though? From the UK numbers we're currently showing over 155,000 deaths from/with Covid yet the ONS numbers say that only 6000 actually died of Covid as the only cause. In typical TF flawed maths news that means the global 5.6M deaths could be less than 250,000.
