  1. I dunno, cycle speedway is super gay and unbelievably cringeworthy to watch but as Mark says it is a 'thing' in its own right whereas CX (is that an approved abbreviation or did I just make it up?) is just deliberately using totally the wrong bike for what you need.
  2. You never get bother from anyone and there are a few ok places to ride round Peterhead, and also some good quarries just down the coast too.
  3. Peterhead. Off 'The Esplinade':
  4. Brings back memories! There's probably some marks still on some of those rocks from a 2000 Monty X-Hydra!
  5. To be fair to him cyclocross is probably the stupidest most pointless element of biking out there (and yes I am including trials in that list) so he was up against it trying to make it not look stupid and pointless.
  6. Ricciardo disqualified for fuel flow sensor irregularities. The sensors have been very problematic though so it wouldn't surprise me if Red Bull can defend their case.
  7. If you're not getting enough adjustment of the chain why will smaller cams help?
  8. Tighten the bolts more. Think of 5Nm more as a guide- I sure as hell have always tightened stem bolts to more than 5Nm...
  9. Just to add my 2p I rented for a good few years (paying ~£650 per month) before buying a £198k 3 bed house back in 2010. Mortaged for £168k with repayments of ~£1150 per month (20 year mortgage). Probably couldn't do it on my own salary alone but with my wife's income as well it's fairly easy.
  10. However, considering Abel's fashion sense and the fact that I couldn't watch his last video through fear of seeing his scrotum I think Benito would've been a pretty good bet...
  11. I hope you change the sprocket, freewheel/chainring and jockey wheels (where fitted) at the same time as per Cytech regulation 2.45.7b, paragraph 3.
  12. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
  13. One point of note with the Moto G for anyone that's considering it is that it doesn't have an SD card slot so keep that in mind when purchasing. I didn't know this and just bought the 8GB (assuming I could throw my old 16GB card in it to expand the memory) but that's a no go so I'll resort to using Google Drive if needed.
  14. Breaking Bad kicked ass. I've never bothered getting into those sorts of long running series' (never watched an episode of 24, Lost got boring after a few episodes etc.) but I watched every series of Breaking Bad over a period of a couple of weeks last year and loved it.
  15. I take it he then disassembled a Protec (or similar) and riveted the straps onto one of those. Not rocket science
  16. You should ever have bothered with the Neon's or Because forks if you were riding brakeless! Trialtech should last longer but if it were me I'd be getting some Inspired forks on there.
  17. What sort of riding do you do?
  18. Can you do that? I was looking at it but since it's free to get another micro SIM from Giffgaff and seems really easy to transfer to a replacement SIM I only thought about chopping my standard SIM down for a minute.
  19. Just ordered a Moto G on your advice to replace my Huawei G300. Hopefully it's as good as y'all say.
  20. Can you not just stick some washers between the cranks and the chainring?
