[Cathryn]

Flipping Brock. Jets off for a year then comes back and submits some fabulous photos!

 

[Auntie Helen]

Do I get any points for not knowing what any of these pictures are actually of???

 

[ianrauk]

right.. let's have a go at this

 

[Aperitif]

 

[Auntie Helen]

right.. let's have a go at this

I think the idea was that the item is attached to the bicycle... which I'm assuming that isn't? Or what do I know, I can't identify any of the previous postings, although Aperitif's looks to be something I might actually guess!

These are all really good though, show some of the unusual textures and shapes that are part of bikes and that you don't normally see.

Ianrauk's part is one of the few I do think I recognise... its a part that can be removed or left on which ever you prefer. Or I have not got it right

OK. I don't know what Brock 1 is.
Cat's is a spacer
Brock 3 is a plastic washer thing to hold the cable away from the paintwork
Ian's is presta/Schraeder adaptor?
Ape's is a wheel rim (Fulcrum?)

Maybe...!

 

[Aperitif]

I thought it was pretty stuff, not guessy wessy...

Brock 1 is a brake tension lever - maybe?
Then a Brooks rivet...
rich's is 'showing his vintage'
and mine is a Campag wheel with Conti tyre...(only joking rich )

Nice snaps everyone - good fun

Oh and Ian's is a cable tension screw thingummybob - the bit that breaks in the derailleur

Oh dear Aperitif...... Rich P is right, and also I think Summerdays..

You're the judge IIRC, Auntie. You have to set the rules and decide upon a winner!

you........mean.......I......got....it.......wrong?


I'm never going to ride a photograph - ever again...

 

[Auntie Helen]

I am the judge of the photographs (and will decide next weekend or whenever I originally said!) but hadn't realised I would struggle to identify all the entrants, so people who do guess get Brownie Points as well.

 

[summerdays]

Yeah ... I only got it right as I have one too that looks just the same...

 

[Cathryn]

I thought Ian R's was something I have due to my 26" tyres?
