Good to hear. My daughter has been accepted for a Study Abroad Scheme placement in Rotterdam, from UWE in Bristol, for the remainder of the academic year as of February. Self and ex wife tying our darndest to get her to accept and go now as she's having second thoughts...
Sunday but took the back wheel out of the zed...after only a few thousand miles the rear bearings are fucked....ordered some more (fiver a piece) and it turns out not all bearings are created alike....sent them back and ordered some NTN ones...double the price....hopefully should last longer this time around...
The bike was in 4 belts today but i got stuck in the mud which was a slight pain in the backside, luckily i'd the tractor keys with me. Placed a brick behind the rear wheel, release the handbrake with a low gear selected the Kubota did the rest with ease.
This pub has over 500 different beers and even its own reference book to help guide your decision I love it here me.
Not a very well thought out response to being passed by an ebike. Personally I'd just let it be, but experience tells me that some cyclist can't resist. Although for balance ebikers can be annoying when out on built MTB trails as they'll easily pass you on the ups but fail miserably on the downhill bits as they seem to lack the skill set to descend on single-track. Good that you're getting out and about Chris.
Visited my Son in Cambridge as I'm working in Peterborough until end of January. A fairly annoying city (Cambridge)to drive around as at night the street lighting is useless. Add in a hell of a lot of cyclists, scooters and cars doing random maneuvers and it's not pleasant. Cycle theft is pretty much an epidemic, poor kid in the same college as me Son locked both his wheels to a rail and came back to just a pair of wheels. Son doesn't have much free time for now as his course is pretty intense so didn't stay long just enough for a meal and a chat to relive some of our Japan bike packing trip.
Anthony, if that was your front room and very, very inviting you'd be an alcoholic after a few months.
I used to take great pleasure winding them up, both up the hills and down! Over at Swinley Forest, there are some great runs, I used to absolutely fly round them, much to the annoyance of the hardcore brigade!
