grip-shift problem
Sun, 15 Nov 2009 22:28:13 +0000 (UTC)
Slight problem with grip-shift on a child's bike (Islabikes
something).
If I ride it, I get full range of gears, no problems, and no unusual
behaviour that I can detect. It shifts cleanly into all gears, and
stays put.
If my daughter rides it (it's her bike), all but the lowest gear
work. She can chang ...

A good ride today
Sun, 15 Nov 2009 20:27:39 -0000
Well after yesterday I was nicely surprised (despite looking at the met
office forecast) that early morning was nearly wind free but clear,
potentially sunny and dry!
So I did my fairly standard Sunday morning run ( 0700 to 0900 --- dads
lunch is always the overriding factor) but it was still gloriously w ...

I suppose it depends on how you choose to define dangerous. As we all
know, the long-term health benefits of regular cycling far outweigh
any risk, so ...
