    WATER BOTTLE or CAMELBAK?

    Tescos do one for about 15 pounds! Hardly expensive In the end tho, if your used to using a bottle and like that, then use that. As long as you get the fluids you want then it doesn't matter IMHO

    FULL SUSPENSION MTBs, are great uphill too!

    But surely then your suspension is set up for someone a lot heavier than you? Then you don't get the full advantage of it on the downhills??

    Sounds good to me, perhaps to try a faster run down the new section too! Skinny, am I ok for the usual lift? I'll buy the cakes at trailmix!!

    Don't worry Pete, I think we should insist on Skinny riding his Bickerton for the next few rides. He seems to think its ok to go soft and ride a modern full suspension rig! He needs something to put him back in the retro way of thinking

    Freeing off seized disc brakes (hope hydrolic)

    As Old Coyote says, drain a small amount of the fluid and they should free up. If that doesn't work, you can unbolt the two halves of the caliper to take the calipers off the bike before having some 'fun' trying to free off the siezed pistons

    Hayes cable operated hydraulic disc brakes?

    I have vague memories of these using a hydaulic caliper that is actuated using a cable... therefore using a conventional cable lever

    On a random note... Does anyone have a spare ladies saddle that they can part with for a reasonable price? After spending time modifying one of the bikes for my better half, she took it for a first ridetaking today... I know have complaints about the saddle that include the words 'cuts' and...

    Mate being cheeky?

    Seems a bit cheeky for him to have not been up front about it, but if i were you I'd just be honest with him and tell him you can't afford it. If he really wants you guys wearing kilts he'll pick up the tab

    I shipped mine on the slow boat, so they took 8 weeks or so. I don't know if your willing to wait that. I can't remember the company now, but I found one that will ship a bike for about 80 pounds, perhaps a bit more. You then might have to get shipping insurance on top of that. From what I...

    Real Ale Wobble 2011

    You could always camp in the playing fields! Always good for a watery morning :lol: Although seriously, i've done that three times and its quite do-able. I know Orange71 usually stays there in his car there so thats an option. Staying in your own car that is... i'm not sure if he would want...

    Nowt wrong with a good doorknob... :P I tried my best! A good ride today, singlespeed up hills always takes it out of the legs though. And with some fettling I'm sure Skinny will be lapping at a much faster pace!
