Likewise if you come up to Northumberland Ed (apart from the workshop, though my back passage gets some use)

He might not have a workshop, but if you want your nuts greased @Fnaar will sort you out

If you are ever missing that little thing off your bike, put it in Wanted. Someone will have a spare bit.

Before this place I needed some new drop out adjusters for my steel frame as the adjuster nut had fallen off. Searched high and low and ended up getting some Campag ones from America for a small fortune. Bet had this place been here then, someone should have had a bucket full.

Yup... 'tis a great place and great people.

An bless to Ian, who gave me his spare Montaine jacket bag because mine had exploded in a puff of road crap sometime...karma works, people - keep it up. And thanks Ian. Need it back? Just ask. (Someone, but not me. )

Crikey Dangermouse....naff all to do with this thread really but there was a Radio 4 programme on yesterday about Dangermouse and Cosgrove Hall. I learned a lot about you! http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b03ccz0r/Crikey_DM!_David_Jasons_Tribute_to_Cosgrove_Hall/

 

[young Ed]

I've lost count of the little things people have sent my way, the advice I've been given, the time people have spent in order to help both me and CC along - very generious - I've even had one lovely CCer bake me a CC birthday cake and bring it on a group ride ...

if you let the secret out when your birthday is then i shall do similar!
Cheers Ed
