OV9

Was away on business this week in Europeland. Was picked up from the hotel by a colleague I hadn’t met before in a 1989 Volvo 740 Estate. 215,000 km, scruffy outside, but not a squeak, rattle or clunk. Brakes were silent and pulled it up straight. My favourite part was a 4speed box with overdrive on...

I assumed that was matt’s old one?

Handy bottle size n everyfing.

Some interesting comments on boatshoes.

Apparently lost it and ended up sideways, crashing on the inside of a first-gear bend, so definitely a weird one.

I don't know enough about the man or the circuit or where the incident happened. They seem to be highlighting it was an accident in a sport known for dangerous accidents - everyone is pushing their equipment to and beyond the limit. He seems to be arguing that the circuit & organisers could have...

Yeaaaaah, anyway

Blimey - Shakey suing Snetterton for injuries sustained in crash

Also worth looking into gel seat covers? Can get them on line pretty cheap.

Alpine Bikes were independent - had a shop in Gt Western Road where I got my first Trek. Tiso bought them over around 2007-ish.

Here, can someone recommend a comfyish saddle that doesn't look like a piles cushion? My usual choice is killing me on a daily commute and I don't want to wear padded undershorts as neither taking my trousers off at work or sitting all day in something that feels nappyesque appeals. I wonder how mu...

....looking at making another porchase (Cayenne flavoured). Oh really ? I just happen to have a Cayenne that needs to be sold fairly soon ! Can I tempt you ? 16vCento : “what?

Must admit, I've used booze to Put My Big Boy Pants On and make big purchases, but those were purchases that I'd already decided to make and was just fear't of pulling the trigger on them. I don't think I've ever accidentally drunk-purchased anything in my life. Clearly I'm missing out on the surpr...

Balls - I zipped down the page to proclaim “YES” only to find that Ian beat me.

Anne is Married - then Yes - Anne is looking at George

Anne is not married - then yes - Jack is looking at Anne

So both Liam and Scott have made drunken porschases

Interesting - I thought the 1.5m requirement was spacing between bike and vehicle.

You won't BELIEVE what Porsche have done to the 911's clutch pedal spring

A rare non-privacy-glass one. Nice.

Mrs mik will buy items after a few sherbets without checking dimensions. A few years back we took delivery of a "bargain" outdoor chair/table set that would probably suit 7 year old kids. It was like the Stonehenge scene in Spinal Tap.

Unfortunately by Renault as opposed to Lotus

Catchy little moniker…,
