Tea?

[Mo1959]

Morning all

Little legs, that's a new one
I don't have cyclist legs, more suited perhaps to a prop forward

View attachment 336928

Absolutely, unequivocally NOT mine (but handy to know when the legs go)

I have the sniffles, it's not even 1°C yet, brr

I can't make up my mind if I would ever ride an electric bike when I couldn't manage a normal one or not. Some of them are bloomin expensive anyway. The guy in Synergy Cycles in Auchterarder sells them but they are a couple of thousand. He doesn't seem to sell any cheaper bikes or clothing so afraid I don't frequent his place often.

That conversion is apparently £800 if I remember correctly...
I'd have no problems with one, it would get me out.
I've met a few folk who just said the legs aren't for doing hills , anymoreone auld fella told me he could hardly walk 50m without stopping, 25 mile runs each day on his bike.
Aye, I'm for one in later years (hopefully)..

We now only have a Halfords, most LBS don't last sadly.
One in Gourock(dunno if still going), our Halfords hasn't been too bad.
Everything is price driven nowadays.

If I have to use one J M Richards in George Street in Perth is good. Really know their stuff and stock a wide range from cheaper to high end. Sadly, I don't use them as often as I would like as I am inclined just to buy chains, cassettes, tyres, etc myself and just fit them.

If my latest jaunt to Perth goes by anything, it'll be penny farthings in the fair toon then.
I can even do those maintenance bits now when I'd motorbikes I could strip everything down and put it together even bits of the engine but a bike? nah, too fine and footery LOL
I rely on Bikefit for techy stuff...

It's snowing!

 

[Bobby Mhor]

It's snowing!

We have a very light dusting...
I'm off to throw some salt down the path..

Enjoy your day, folks..

Nice and sunny here, however, the temperature is due to drop to 14c with a real feel of 17c for a few days next week

 

[Motobecane]

Everybody seems to be chilled,

Bob has the solution

Good Morning

Having a cuppa when you posted.

He was obviously amazed at your speed and couldn't comprehend how your little legs were propelling Polly so quickly

I am waiting on a parcel delivery so am stuck indoors for the time being. Pretty chilly out anyway.

On and off down here. The Southern stuff, a bit of a show with no real effort made.

You'll need your thermals in a week then.

I think it would be good for people who simply couldn't do hills due to disability or age. I think most of them can be switched back to manual as desired.

Good morning (just). Its so dark here that I have the light on.

Bleedin' battery, one that size must do some mileage....

Yep, anything to get you out in the fresh air..
I'd a friend who had problems walking but put him on a bike?
He was a regular on the race scene in his younger years.

I'll be getting one




in 30 years time...

So soon!

I need to keep my fitness up to receive my telegram and dance the night away at my 'do'

We're away to the Irish Bar for a bit of Greek and English karaoke. I wonder what the reaction to my singing in Greek will be this week - last week when the Greek lyrics came up a Brit who was talking to Mrs B looked at the screen and went "He's not going to sing that is he?" in wide eyed and utter disbelief. It gave us both a laugh - we're easily amused!
