Right, how do you remove a seized cassette lock ring?

Dunno, lbs?

 

[Stoichkov]

This nfto UK team? Throwing the cash about...

Is that 10k yet?

Bollox, 10,001.

You peanut, if any post deserves to be Mr 10k, it's this literary masterpiece:-

I go over to watch them quite often.

Always a good weekend although not in '04 when HV was cancelled due to snow. Pre mobile internet, it took me a while to realise...

25 words of brilliance and comedy genius, painting a superb picture of snowy loneliness, sandwiched in with all the guff and hot air of the evening.
Now it's lost in time as just 9998.

Talking to yourself is cheating. I reckon [MENTION=225]Hamilton[/MENTION] is gonna take this.

Damn damn damn damn!

Bollox, 10,001.

10,000th reply though.

A moral victory for [MENTION=225]Hamilton[/MENTION], once the cheating is discounted.

Michelin Pro Race 4. Any comments? Might go for the white walled ones.

 

[Stoichkov]

OK, cassette still seized, chain whip now bust. Vice method failed to work.

ffs...

Heat?

Have you blasted it with a paint stripper gun blow torch type thing?

 

[Stat Brother]

It would seem whoever Spurs are playing tonight.
They happen to be wearing a close variation to the Albion/geek cycling jersey favoured by [MENTION=19321]Pogue Mahone[/MENTION].

Oh and Moto PR3 were always good enough for me.
Conti Grand Prix's are another popular choice.

I got passed by KLL at Long Furlong, then headed down the Angmering by-pass.

Should have got a BHA cycling jersey after all.

Hmmm - not yet - i'll give it a tentative go

My vice isn't the biggest - I couldn't get enough 'purchase' on it. Then, when I went back to the 'normal' method, I summoned up MAXIMUM STRENGTH and bust the chain whip

Pro Race are the only tyres in the Pantani household. So yes, they are a fine choice.


Well in the summer anyway, you do not want to be riding around on them in the winter, unless you really like repairing punctures and walking home from the Sussex countryside

Tentative shmentative blast the bejesus out of that bad boy.

Blimey, that's nice!

Last chance to get your Spring Classic team underway.

£2 in bets for added excitement for Omloop.

50p e/w @ 18/1 Vanmarcke

50p e/w @ 40/1 Stannard

Boonen and Stybar very short so not worth backing at such small stakes.

I wish you hadn't done that!!

I'd love Stan to go well, I just don't think the weather will sort out the men from the boys, which brings EBH into the equation.
I think you're right about Orlandi and Stybar, they will win this spring, but when?

Same bet, instead of Stan I've gone for Schar - 125/1 and his team captain, the fella who I think will win Greg VA @18's.
Tomorrow, DeMare to pay for the bet @ 5/1.
Plus a nibble on Roelandts @25/1 and for no apparent reason Mecgez completely leaped out of the betting at me @ 33/1.

Initially I thought it was odd Cav was on a Pinarello, but it's not.

It's actually seeing him in Nike, that's odd.

Blimey, welcome.
But if you've gone through 'geeks' and plucked that out, you're proper mentals.

Felt really lousy going to bed last night, so knew a ride was not on this morning. Lovely it was too. Typical.

Anyway, on Eurospurt tomorrow afternoon at 1.30 Live Cycling: Kuurne-Brussels.
