What Have You Fettled Today?

[Gwylan]

That's possibly even more worrying.

Found the homes for the surplus screws. They should have been holding the door trim in place.
One mystery resolved.

Has anyone seen my cycling shoes?

I thought that I had left them next to my can of GT85, but there is no sign of them!



Nice of you to offer, but this is a ride planned some time ago for the Ribble valley and back.

Train to Blackburn, then ride to Langho, Ribchester, Longridge, Goosnargh, Inglewhite, Chipping, Whitewell, Longridge Fell, Mitton, Whalley, Read, Padiham, Burnley, Todmorden. Carefully measured to be 111 km, or 'my age in miles'.

Anyway - I had better stop messing about and get ready!

Next to my ketchup container if engine oil!

Changed tube on carbon bike then needed to true up the wheel!

Hope it's ok!!

 

[All uphill]

Six years and 10,000 miles ago I built my first pair of wheels; I remember the spokes were a tiny bit long, but the rim tape seemed to protect the inner tubes fine.

Today one of the spokes penetrated the inner tube causing a flat. I've smoothed the ends of the spokes, put in new rim tape and made a mental note to check for wear when I do my next big maintenance between Xmas and New Year.
