'Smokey & The Bandit' (first one) loved that Kenworth W900 (is it really 35 years since it was released!?!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OH5KNcF ... re=related 'Hooper' the end sequence with the town collapsing around them & the rocket powered Firebird...

Glacially slow, since I had to move the PC into another room & go wireless :evil: 'Ping' = 35ms 'Download' = 2.5Mb/S 'Upload' = 0.86 Mb/S

Absolutely superb, as usual (complete with 'Rice & Peas') Curiously the photo hasn't uploaded - sorry didn't check after posting :oops: Mmm?!? Won't add - the file name appears, but on 'previewing' it's not there in the box (& no pic either!) Edit @ 13:19 Try uploading to another...

I'd gone into Leeds at dinner-time, been up Roundhay Road to purchase my case of SuperMalt, & a Goat Curry (to eat this evening) Then parked up on Mabgate, as it's cheap & only a couple of minutes walk from the city-centre. On my return to the car, I spotted this Colnago chained up at...

I collected a branch in the eye at the 'Harriers verses Cyclists' race last November & got a nicely scratched cornea. It felt like I'd been punched, but was just a 'sporting incident' - 2 seconds earlier, or later, & I'd probably have been okay I had been hoping for a good run as well...

Part 1; We had a C-Max (1.8 petrol) as our last family car (also known to me as 'the blue-van', & 'stinking heap of crap'!) From day one, I considered it appalling; 1. In anything less than brilliant sunshine/hot weather, it misted up chronically, unless air-con was on (I hate the bloody...

I noticed the thread title & decided to join in (my club) Do you still see him Paul?? Not seen him, or his brother Lee, for years (let alone dad Terry!) Didn't Nigel go over to Barnsley Road Club? http://www.featherstoneroadclub.co.uk/ Or perhaps via club sponsor...

Got a pair of the normal Scott Drop-Ins hanging up in the garage (42cm C-C) They were on the Dyna-Tech for years

"Hello" Nedly!!!! <waves> Trust you're both okay? I know of it, but not been http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/475558 On a similar tangent, whenever we're in 'the lakes' & find ourselves at Coniston, the grave of Donald Campbell is always visited (as are the memorials to him & Leo...

Barry, the brother-in-law/brother of some old friends (Mike & Josie, respectively) of mine later married Helen Simpson I called at their house a couple of days after Wiggins Tour victory, hoping to get to find out what Barry thought about it, but sadly they were out (not had reason to go...

I use old toothbrushes. for those minty fresh (cassette) teeth. I'm not sure what you use to clean/lubricate your chain, but I use 'red' diesel, & after a couple of weeks the toothbrushes fall apart. Something in the composition of the diesel seems to 'rot' them

Well, they made a full-size FAB 1 to promote the Thunderbirds films in the 1960's This Parisian tour coach looks like it ought to have been there too!! http://www.darkroastedblend.com/2012/06 ... built.html

My then girlfriend/now wife had a '89 Bear Valley, but a 15" frame - the one with the 'U-Brake' under the chainstays She had it for about 15 months, then a friend swapped it for his 'Aluminium O'! He still has it as a 'winter bike', but now with cantilevers on the seat-stays, mudguards...

It was!, & no way could I ride it nowadays - couldn't get nowhere near enough saddle set-back with that frame!! The, 'yellow-bike', Dyna-Tech & Ridley are set up w-a-y back

Dan That's very good of you, I did find that site during a search for them, but didn't go past the bikes :oops: I'll try an e-mail

Thankyou! :D Yes, those are the items Fronts are okay, & it good order, but both sides have 'gone' on the rear.

Mine was 531C from what I can remember (sold it in about '96) 'Pip' was indeed for a pump Trolls???, possibly hiding in a bag/suitcase somewhere that's not been opened through house-moves (had some 'Zebra' strip ones too!!) As for the colour scheme of yours, it's very similar to...

I need help, please! I have a set of these 'guards on my Dyna-Tech, & the ones on the seat-stays have turned (basically) to powder. My 'LBS' tells me that they've never seen them available at any time. Does anyone have any clues where i can get any please? (or a viable solution)...

I had an Orbit America, in the early 90's, bought it from the (in)famous 'Two Wheels Good' in Leeds (7-speed 105) It was finished in that flourescant yellow/pink, but I later had it resprayed 'petrol blue/pink' As I used to commute on it in summer, through the centre of Leeds @ 18:00, I...

I had a '89 Pine Mountain, & a good friend had a '90 at the same time Think he px'd his for at Yeti FRO, or a 'Marin Titanium
