Get a wide front rack installed (look for "pizza rack"), put the normal cat carrier on it with bungee cords and be very careful.

I stopped doing this and just started taking the bus because I felt it was probably too stressful for all, but that's just my opinion!

Obligatory "Obvs just race somewhere else"

I really enjoyed portimão and mugello from the covid season! Sepang... Anywhere in Germany... Anything other than another street race

S/he's a beauty!

Agree, looking forward to finding out!

If you haven't seen the last race of the f3 then I definitely recommend checking it out

Here's the extended highlights video of Fornaroli and Mini, so they're definitely expected to do well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLtEVjamPSE

Lindblad as you say and also Beganovic should be decent.

Surprised Verschoor and Martins are still going with it to be honest!

EDIT: Fuck me forgot the link

Sweet, looks like you're on your way

The hub and spokes generally look in decent condition so I think once you get a replacement wheel bearing and give everything a clean and greasing etc you should be sorted!

Looking cozy. Must be nice and warm there

Makes him fast? He had hair in between f2 and now.

Gasly has been needing to make a decision about plugs or just going bald for ages, the combover was getting a bit out of hand!

Recommend uploading some more pictures. A wheel bearing doesn't have to be expensive and if the rims, spokes and hub are still rolling then a new wheel seems like an expensive fix

Can you take some pictures of the hub after you've removed the axle, and do you see any damage to the rims (cracking around the spokes?), spokes (loose and can't tighten or snapped?) or the hub (damage around the failed bearing?)?

It should be repairable if everything else is OK and the front wheel is obviously way way simpler than the rear

She's a real one

Teach me your ways

 

Or is this not possible on Lemmy generally?

 

Hoping someone can offer some advice. I'm working on a late 80s Raleigh Montage, 88 I think. It has a u-brake on the rear which dates it.

Anyway I have it all stripped down, including the cup and cone bb.

The only thing I can't seem to remove are the headset cups, as the headtube is slightly flared on the inside top and bottom, so I can't get the tool to make contact with the edge of the cup.

What am I missing here? How do I get these out?

 

The jail sentences handed out today seem completely insane to me, not least considering the overcrowding of jails that's been reported. Even if they had tons of space it seems like madness.

I can well understand people's reservations about JSO's general tactics but at the same time, what alternative is offered by their detractors?

Personally I don't feel as though Labour or the Democrats stateside are doing, or planning on doing, anything close to enough to tackle our impact on the climate.

What do you think?

 

I have some cotton velox rim tape but it's not very sticky and so I'm struggling to apply it to my rims.

Can I just use a few dots of superglue here and there to stick it down?

 

Please let me know in non spoiler mode, isn't this game made by Brits? I'm literally going through the foot tunnel to the north side and thinking "the den is thataway" (west)

 

NGL I assumed something had happened, and it kinda did, but this was an extremely welcome sight

 

I just found this out today by cycling it. You can now shoot straight through the section at Surrey Quays/Southwark Park making this route extremely quick and largely safe.

I don't like the crossover at Surrey Quays station OR that weird side road dip just before the McDonalds but all things considered this is a great route.

Apologies if this is off topic, I CBA to make London cycling

 

Just announced is a re-up of Bundle of Holding's Shadow of the Demon Lord pack!

 

Their second season of Impossible Landscapes just started, the previous season was some of the best content they have ever put out

 

There is no glass cannon on Lemmy yet I don't think

I wasn't ready for Haunted City to start back up again but I'm so happy it has. The cast have lost nothing in the break and I really want to see Josephine and Ross' film!
