  1. I think if they tried running at Silverstone or Monza or somewhere they'd only last a couple of laps at race pace so would have to be cruising round like grannies to make the charge last. Even on the street circuits they seem to spend 50% of the time off the throttle coasting. They really should be embarrassed!
  2. Definitely in the wrong thread. That crap's so slow it makes me angry. Future of motorsport my arse.
  3. that sucks too! Ours do at least let us use it whenever. We've also split them between two places- the first school Ash will go to uses 13 hours I think over three days and the other nursery uses 17 over the other two.
  4. Thankfully Finn's now at school and Ash gets the 30 hours so our bill has gone down a good chunk. They do take the piss though. We also have to pay an 'additional charge' per hour for Ash's funded hours as the nursery reckon the government rate doesn't cover costs. Fairly sure they're not actually allowed to do that but do anyway!
  5. Totally painful isn't it?! Now try it with two kids! Childcare vouchers stuff helps and 30 free hours is great but only kick in when they're 3...
  6. Martin Hawyes works for Moore Large but I don't think has anything to do with trials anymore really. Not sure about Danny. I got an email at work from Steve Kitchin the other day (Team Animal in Chainspotting) who's now a Marketing Manager for Vitus at Wiggle now.
  7. Oh no he isn't. You'd be mental to let a thieving fanny like that use your camper. Tell him to buy his own frickin' camper.
  8. You can never have too many bikes! I've still got an Echo 20", Arcade 24", full sus MTB, hardtail MTB, road bike and a BMX. The full sus is the only one that gets used regularly but it's good to have the others and each occasionally gets to come out for a play!
  9. Looks pretty good. Not as good as orange would've looked of course but does look good.
  10. Spill the beans... my 3 year old has a belter on his forehead!
  11. I ran one for a while in my old Fourplay with a custom axle on an Echo fixed hub and messed around with one on my Arcade but because of the disc it was never going to work!
  12. My guess is they're too close to the axle to provide sufficient support for a disc mount unless you can brace it back to the rim brake mounts or something. Is that a peg I spy as well? Touche!
  13. I've got it set up to ignore Dave Anscombe's posts and it works...
  14. I think I'd be taking the rotor to a grinding wheel and whipping off a bit of material to get it to clear. That or open up the dropouts and adding a bushing on the screw to suit and drop the axle in the frame a little to move the rotor down in the caliper.
  15. Instead of a 'like' button can we have a 'f**ktard' button especially for Guillermo?
  16. Currently on iPlayer- very good and well worth the watch if it tickles your fancy!
  17. I preferred season 2 to season 1 for some reason. Go to film would probably be either John Wick film though I did watch The Accountant last night again which also ticks my boxes.
  18. I seem to remember leaving the BB alone and adding a spacer on the axle between the BB and the crank arm... Will have a look when I get home tonight as I put it on a long time ago! Edit: Ok, may be lying but it is an option: Linky. And another discussing the issue: Linky.
  19. We're pretty light users it seems. Currently with Co-op Energy paying £64 a month and still £180 in credit at the moment. Bulb says it could save a bit of monies but the actual rates are higher than Co-op (unit price and daily standing charge jobbie) so not sure how that works! Will have a look again in February though when our fixed deal finishes.
  20. I do wish he wouldn't use such OTT sensationalist titles for his videos. 'I NEARLY DIED!!!', 'INSANE PITBIKE!!!', 'CRAAAAZY MTB CRASH!'... chill man, chill.
