Re: We truly feel for you - very hard to lose a much loved friend. Salsprocket & Andybike. xx

Re: We both have the old Garmin 305. Andy already had his and used it for marathon training so when one came up on RB, he got it for me (sorry can't remember who he bought it off but it was a bargain). I have used it ever since and can easily swap it between bikes as I've put a kit on each...

Re: Ooh, I feel a trip to the loft coming on - various rucksacks from the early 90's lying up there in a packing case somewhere. Think they were still trading from a unit in Wareham at that time (the firm, not the rucksacks. I still have my first Surfers Against Sewage watch (still wear it)...

Re: Re: I reckon we were just a few feet away from you Ted - we were the other side of The Times compound/enclosure; right on the front as they rolled past. A brilliant weekend at Harewood and worth every penny. Went on up and camped at Threshfield on the Monday and had a really good week...

Re: I flippin hate E-Bay - well, maybe not E-bay but certainly some of the dickheads who use it. How is it that if someone went into a shop and did the same thing there as they have done to Alan, this would be called theft yet they get away with it on E-Bay? We sold a second hand pair of Doc...

Good grief HM, they're flippin awful :shock: . The woman (I think it's a woman??) is one of the worst I've seen. Why do people get face tats? How in hell would you ever get a job with that across your mush. You would think most self respecting tattooists would surely refuse to do stuff like...

Re: A picture of me riding my bike. Well - it's very similar, I am the same height as the Playmobilemodel :oops:

Re: Well, we were going to camp in York and watch from there but York Council cancelled the camp site a couple of weeks back :roll: . Anyway, as an apology, York council have sent us two free tickets for York racecourse (where it's going from) on Sunday 6th July. Unfortunately, we cannot now...

Re: Generally I'm not particularly scared of cows (my first pocket money job was to fetch a small herd of about 30 dairy cattle in for milking, aah), although I have always had a very healthy respect for cow/calf combos and bulls. Around here, a lot of the bridleways cross cattle fields so we...

Re: We aren't usually too concerned about cattle but, last weekend, we were on a bridle way (which we have used before) that is part of the Viking Way. We came to the gate (where there is now a sign saying beware of the bull) and realised that said bull and a dozen cows, all with calves, were...

Re: Retro look but not a retro price :shock: . Think I'll just hang on to the originals I bought about 20 years ago..... :D

I'm feeling just slightly blummin cross. :evil: I placed an order with Evans on the 8th March for two items. They took payment for both and sent one item. I contacted them yesterday to ask when the other one would be sent and they say they are expecting a delivery from their supplier on 1st...

Re: I have a Hyundai i30 diesel 1.6 - I've had it 3 years and it's done 66,000 miles.I got diesel cos I do a fair few miles. It's not the most exciting car in the world but I average a proper 50mpg on my hilly journeys and 55 mpg on the flat. The car is like a tardis when you put the back...

Re: I really feel for you - just so sad. Hard to know what to say, really, as there's nothing that makes it feel any better - just time. I dread the day that we will lose my beloved Sprocket - she's been through thick and thin with me for the last 14 years. She's now very arthritic, has renal...

Did he keep the packaging on the returned box? I'm thinking that the amount paid for postage should reflect the weight of the contents - and the package should be a bit light if there was no phone in it.

Or you could try a vehicle upholstery company or classic car specialists etc. :D

I hear that the Advertising Standards Agency (ASA) has issued a directive to Cycling Scotland that requires them to only feature cyclists who are wearing helmets and refusing to authorise a television advertisement which showed a rider without a helmet – claiming that to do so would be ‘socially...

Blaming Andy for everything -most of which is my fault in the first place. :? And buying books. I could walk through a desert and still manage to come home with a bag of books. Not much in the skill stakes but, there you go. I suppose I'm crap at a lot of things. Is that a skill, being...

Brilliant :D . Have now shared it with Germany and New Zealand. Does sound suspiciously like Andy when he thinks I can't hear him 'singing'. :facepalm:

Re: Sealskinz waterproof winter cycling gloves £12.50 Ooh, a bargain indeed. I have a pair and I love 'em . When I first got them, the tab you pull across to tighten the wrist area fell apart in the first week (might have been something to do with wearing them over wristguards for...
