Original (with slippage) 37.33 mm Total replacement (unable to select neutral) 38.82mm "Hybrid" - some old, some new (no issues) 38.46 mm Gap...
All of the above is fine with me - it was one of those rides where your brain is just telling you to turn round early, but you don't, you stick to...
The weather was really nice today until I got changed to go cycling. Then it rained. A lot. I got wet. 12.5 miles out, 12.5 miles back into a head...

Hi Hans - I've seen your work and it's great (and I have a set of termis from you) - the only issue is the customs hassle with sending the clocks...
I've decided that being able to see my speedo needle would help - while white on white looks mint (!) I'm sure it would be better if it was the...
