He clearly needs help. I have sent him my CV,told him I will pay my own flights and set up a tent beside the tarp empire for as long as it takes. Together I think we could sort it all out and open a visitor centre for other addicts. ;) 👍 🙃

Aye,if the bairns want their inheritance ,then they will follow my instructions to build a small scale Pyramid (complete with sand traps) behind the house .They can then entomb me and all the shed contents therein. MUHaHaHaHa ;) 🤣

Yup,that's me,and bikes are a small part of it. Being a weirdo though ,while in the shed ,I do like being surrounded by interesting bits and pieces.🤣🤣

Are a lot of folk (maybe) waiting/searching for parts that are, new but old stock? Then they can build up that showstopper ;) 🙃

This. If it's going to be an every day ride,it's less faff with a tensioner and I always liked the push up ones for a quick adjustment.

I approve of your excellent choice in bench lights ( I restore old lamps) 👍 :)

Sonder Camino Ti Fully loaded ;) 👍

I am outraged by that GT seller. How dare they do a close up of that rear mech cable, and then park it in the Granny gear for the photo shoot. Do they really think people will believe that that bike has been loved. ;) 🤣 🤣

I love these threads,reading them makes me feel less weird. Well ... almost. ;) 🙃

The time is fast approaching, where neighbours will ask if I can check over a new bike, before it's hidden away for Xmas. Oh lordy, some of those cheap disc brakes are frightening.

Old drop bars get bolted to the wall for tyre storage. When they are full, the tyres nearest the wall need to go in front of the tyre judge,to plead for their lives. ;)

I think they should drop the price a tad ,there's wee bit of crank rub. Having said that,it does have Ardents fitted with the valves lined up,and the seller has 100% feedback. Tempting ;) 🙃

After reading the French retro event thread, my mind naturally turned to Cyclo Cross in Europe :) Every year I say to myself that I must get across to watch one of the world cup races in Belgium or Holland, then never get anything sorted:rolleyes:🙃 A bit of searching showed that the world...

or.. D. Hammer a tight fitting tube/seatpost down, watch as it gets jammed solid while the dents don't change, then burst in to tears and blame the small child. ;) 👍 🤣 🤣

Do you have any nice stickers? 👍 ;)
