If you find that offending you need to man the f**k up. Get over it.

Do the history of trials, its evolution and how it came about. Do a kind of timeline going from the Penny Farthing! Give me a PM if you'd like any help, sounds dead interesting!

Excellent value for money and has everything you'll ever need to fix your bike! http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/...tegoryId_165532 Dont forget it's 3 for 2 at the moment also

Cant you just try a couple of spacers instead?

http://www.profileracing.com/howto.php Snorted!

Halfords - Carrera? Not the greatest i will admit but good value for money and you cant really go wrong.

Yeah bit more info would help really. I'd suggest doing research of your own. Obviously Boardmans are the best value for money bike your going to get. But depends how much your price range is. Was you thinking more £6-700 or £2-300? Really to get anything half decent you shouldn't be willing to fork out much less than £400 at a stretch. On the other hand keep an eye out on gumtree, ebay ect.

lol How naive, what do you think all of the pro riders do with there bikes at the end of the season (talking Cavendish, Lance, Cooke ect here)

That makes your manager a fanny. And tell him rob from 724 said that. Because he's a fanny.

As pants said, save another £150 and get the team. Seriously worth the extra dollah and you're getting so much more for your money. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't put the board mans down this year.

Once my uncles mates cousins brothers step dads mate from the local had a CK, and that broke in 5 minutes riding!!!!

Paris - roubaix this sunday, eurosport, 1PM one of the great classics! Anyone see the tour of flanders? Out of interest anyone read cycling weekly? Some really good info there!

lol it was a load of bits and bobs, tyers ect i was selling, all finished about 9ish last night. Should have really posted it up earlier but didn't really come into my mind until i was browsing the forum last night.

May be of some interest to people http://shop.ebay.co.uk/merchant/robwalker1...QQ_fromZQQ_mdoZ

lol

Mega, nice to see my frame has gone to a good home!

Ah, well the best of luck then! What bikes/components you riding on? As far as I'm aware the Severn bridge is a motorway, so no. Try ferry's as an alternative. Keep us posted i'd like to know how it all goes.

# If you dont have a route planned out yet, either get to work with a shit load of maps from each region and plan your route to a tee. Dont want to find yourself plodding along a dual carage way for 17miles in the dark. Maybe invest in a Garmin Edge 605, excellent piece of kit. # Make sure your bikes are apt enough/buy bike that are apt enough. You'll be needing panniers at the very least. # Stick to simple components, forget drum brakes and internal gear hubs, you want something that you can bodge untill you can get to the nearest bikeshop. # Dont think that going lightweight is the issue. I had a heated debate with a customer who wanted to buy a full carbon roadbike to ride over the pirinees? (sp), all well and good if you have a support car, but he was wanting to toe a trailer... Its not worth compromising a slight bit of weight for what could cause you to have to end the trip early. # Start to build up a good relationship with your LBS, you'll find they'll be more than helpful and my even offer you discount on parts/kit needed. # Clothing is a very important aspect to look into, i'd suggest looking at some reviews of kit and deciding which is going to be best for you, start reading cycling weekly, always some good articles in there. # Brush up on your mechanical skills with a bike. The Haynes manual is a life saver so it may be worth investing in a copy of that. I'll try and think of some more things but give me a shout if you've got any more questions. Why does that matter? That shop is pristine, bikes are clearly laid out and there is a sense of organization in the shop. No offense, and i know alot of your problems are down to management, but your shops a shithole.

That would be good, except targets mean shit when the person setting them used to sell tins of beans. Fact it, st pauls evans> st pauls bikehut. Failing.

Ride Hard or Go Home? I think its home time g-baby.

lol your store is failing. MEGA. And that a completely unbiased statement 'cuz them woollies managers said exactly the same. Out of interest, have you sold one of the £3.3k Boardmans?

3 years f**king hell. What did he do in the first place? You get less for murder now days. I smell a powertrip

Chains too tight? Loosen it off, then give the hub a bit of time to wear in.

Sounds bizarre. Give hope a ring and send it up to them, they'll probably be as interested as you to find out whats happened. Just a pain its going to stop you riding for a bit. HOPEfully they'll send you a new one. Haha.

Write a letter/call his local police station. Hopefully they'll send someone around to sort matters.
