Without tearing a word I disagree ..hows that for transparency ? Channa

Well the observation is the easy bit...so I ask how ? Channa

Well in respect of Cambridgeshire I cant comment, But I do recall visiting West Bar garages in Shefffield a few years back, and all very interesting. Yes there were the quick cars for whatever operational requirements seen fit , and a boat load of part exchanges from garages on loan to target...

Overall I like it Channa

The fact is a sales rep gets nowhere the government, all deals are done direct with the manufacturer often on a buyback lease which means that the cost to you as ratepayers is far less than you are perceiving. Supplying the Police etc is seen by manufaturers as a coveted opportunity for...

Hence my comments of attitude, and ability to cope with others actions and their ability to cope with ours. It is a two way street. Channa

Some interesting comments and something I have thought about for a long time. The thread title uses attitude, and you use the term How do I cope ? And that seems to be the basic problem of all road users irrespective of what is their chosen mode of transport. When I drive my motor...

Interestingly today I have been approached by an individual on a Due care and attention charge. He is pleading guilty to the charge and everything is quite straightforward until I read the statements. The Police are suggesting that he was attempting to induce another car to race....This is...

I must admit my own thoughts pretty much echo Neils. Part of being a responsible road user in the grand scale is understanding all parts of the community carstrucks and cyclists have a rogue element and believe the law doesnt apply to them. How many times do you see a mature cyclist jump...

Courts are often reluctant to convict on Intent alone, It needs to be accompanied by sufficient actions (actus reus) On this occasion there were sufficient actions that a conviction was successful, The bone of contention is perhaps the sentence, without knowing the history of the defendant it...

lol@WU ....remember to keep your receipt. Last time through Dover in November...stuck me dog in a cage, x rayed gas bottles, spare wheels and at one point 5 of em inside the van. Channa

Forgive a pedant moment, but the CPS dont proceed with a case because they dont see a successful conviction. The result being no charges are layed. or they proceed with a charge ( or couple of charges) in the belief they will gain a successful conviction. The only people that can...

I agree with you sentencing needs to be a balance of punishment,deterrent and rehabilitation. In terms of increasing points, It wouldnt surprise me if that doesnt happen. You wont see an increase in a mandatory fine though. remember the £60 is the maximum discounted tarriff for pleading...

cipo I am not suggesting the decal is wrong, as you say all sorts of things can happen. If our bikes were decaled up similarly take a look at my thread a poor piccy of the reynolds 531 sticker you were asking about Channa

Is the art deco style head badge Cippolini, right for 1977 ? The reason I ask is my bike has the same andyours is the forst bike i have seen with the same transfer. The frame for mine is between 68-72 when chassis where WHOxxxxxx. There is always mine is a 1980 on the later dating...

Hi Tom. On the box does it give a frame number reference ? it will start probably with w?000??? If not and you have removed the frame from the box albeit still in the polythene ? if so the frame number is normally stamped on the hub. Are there any photos available ? regards Channa

Thanks I bought a high volume hand pump from halfords and the respective adapter. I am trying to get back into cycling on the cheap, I dont particularly want to start buying track pumps etc....and more to the point .....what happens when i get a punctur :shock: e Channa

Here is a couple of pics of my Carlton which I have not ridden for perhaps three years due to living abroad. At the time Iwas into mountain biking, and I bought her to keep fit during the week for an hour or so after work. She is serial no WH0000314. Other than built in June I believe...

I have got the bug again and rather than sell my Carlton have decided to enjoy it instead. I have a bike pump, specific adapter for presta valves which are fitted. Bikes I have in the past have always been Schraeder. I am unlocking the the valve and pumping in air, but because of the...

Far more informative than my answer thank you. My motive was quite simple, rather than ???? from a previous poster, it is perhaps important we actually take the time and trouble to assist visitors to our shores, and a fellow cyclist. perhaps now we are collectively answering a question and...
