Who were Autovia anyway?

Spin off from Denis. (After Felix passed away?)

Because Germy Vile.

Eww - that really doesn’t sound good.

Something different. Pedestrian wanders out without looking (possibly thinking the road is one-way for all traffic, and not noticing the 2-way cycle lane?), but since they were crossing the road I think many cyclists would have anticipated the potential for that happening. A brief toot on that nice ...

The old tyre is fine, but the wheel is cracked in 4 places, almost in perfect quarters.

Some comments in the thread highlighting that the cycle lane had ended - which are irrelevant - a cyclist can still filter up the inside of a lane and if you can't see that your route is clear - don't cross. Driver is also a total dick for denying fault, and the bikes are fully...

Having pored over several of these at M-Sport….

I fancy a fun project and I’m really impressed by how well it fits in the engine bay of a Boxster. This is the thread…. https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&t=2015662 Looks like a lot of fun and would be the wife’s convertible. Dave! Normally I’d be sniffy about the idea of droppin...

His fathers lived a life!

Indeed! I didn’t want to spoil anything, but

The more I look at it, the more I like it. I bet the rear looks good in the <material>
