    How do you mean, out of interest?

    The people going "I'm going to vote leave because of my gut instinct" is a little concerning.  This is a pretty major decision, so to not actually look into anything to do with it but then just vote on a whim isn't really great.

    What about the people who (out of gut instinct) vote remain ? That is just as concerning if that is your view.,

    Thing is, the gut instinct is a human trait that is all powerful and is what humanity from the beginning of time go with when decisions are made .

    I completely agree with this - If there's a country of people voting who are just as non-educated on this as me I think that's the wrong way of doing things. 

    If that was the case in general, what about  voting in normal elections in the UK ? Having the right to vote is part of the foundations of Democracy.

    The threads will have welded themselves together and can now be considered to be a single piece of metal. If you put enough force into it, you will simply tear the metal apart.

    If that is the case cutting off the sprocket won't work . Looking at the pictures  it doesn't  look  too bad. Do what  the  tarty  team advise  and  you  will  be on to a winner. They the men .

  5. I think for your first attempt you have done well. Gentlydoesit  is  right about the design aspect with hardening but all in all It looks quite good and you will buzz off the fact that you made it .

  6. For me that was the best edit I have watched for a long long time.Everything about it from the music to the way it was filmed and obviously Pat's riding.That guy has bags of talent ,switching  to different bikes and being truly more than at home on all of them. Chilled inspirational film,excellent.

    i'd assume a FFW it would prevent chain lengthening a bit. because the opposite force from the back pushes it back together.

    Eh ? Please explain.

  8. Jeff.When I posted  'WHAT A BUMMER' ,  it was for the fact that you are so far away and people didn't respond to your post for a while.People genuinely want to see you do well in the sport . Think of this - if you  had success in the comps , sponsors would look at your travelling expenses , . What I am trying to say is if you are that dedicated to riding these comps , it might be cheaper to spend the season living in Europe .

    We have similar problems here in the UK with the the bicycle Fed's  and recognition of the sport.Catch 22.
