Worked itself up to a high temperature of 11C today, but due to be a little shy of 0C to-morrow for a high temperature. 50 mph wind gusts. I am hoping Mrs. GA does not get blown away by the winds.

And the testing was done in an area where no documentary, regulatory or physical checks were ever needed so the problems we have never surfaced and nobody thought to ask what would happen if they were required.Sounds like a system where the requirements were described by the management, who also tested it as fit for purpose.

Just a measly £50 from Ernie today.
Cold, breezy and overcast all day. Got the bedding changed, stuck a load of washing on, did two loads of shopping by bike and then went out for a leisurely ride around the local lanes. And got rained on yet again

That's 2 new crime dramas that I just don't seem to get !
Murder in Provence and this new thing . They are nothing like Taggart , Morse or Rebus .

Morning.
It is dark outside .
I started doing some work on a bike I bought off my friend a year or so ago. He wondered if he could buy it back . The last ride we had with another friend he got left behind ! Normally he is in the breakaway group of 1 when I'm with our other friend and he usually has to wait for us , the Peloton to catch up .
Anyway it was cold working outside on it so I brought the front wheel into our back place to work on . I thought I would clean and grease the hub . I stripped the hub down , the cones looked fine , no pitting . Most of the ball-bearings looked fine except for 2 halves ! They looked like they had worn down rather than split . I cleaned up the bearings and replaced the broken ones , rebuilt the wheel and popped it back on . It spun freely but then wobbled ! I tightened the cones up again and tried again . Might have some egg shaped balls . I get some new bearings this morning and try again . It might be the hub !

Why is that when you see a cheap bike you fancy it is the other side of the planet and not just next door ?
Perhaps we should form a CycleChat chain ! One person passes it onto the next !

No! Too far East and not next door in Dorset!
I thought. Ah! A quick trip into Dorset . Good job I didn't click Buy it Now! I just asked . "Are you in Dorset?" The reply was "Sorry Kent! "

Not aimed at an Aberdeen audience so most would have no idea. Not the first time this has happened.
