Thanks for the road paint!

You're welcome

Thanks for the tow AAAC.
I'm feeling fairly unfit these days, but the new tyre I just put on helped a bit.

It was about as much as I could do today.
The kittens came home last night so I only got about 5 hours sleep.
Not that they woke me up but I did so at about 5:30 so I thought I would go check how they were doing on thier own in the lounge, or was that how the lounge was doing.
Anyway I need not have worried as they were keeping each other occupied charging around endlessly only stopping to pee or poop.
We've decided to name them after our girls as they are both a pain in the butt.

Yeah, we had the same trouble with ours. He stopped to pee and poop too, but eventually I got wise to what he was about to do when he was crouching on our new sofa with a strange look on his face.
Fortunately there are some very good products out there for cleaning pets pee and poop.

Chaingang today???

Sorry no. Currently sunning it and fattening the pig...

 

[Whorty]

Real life ride for me tomorrow morning. Going to see if I can stay out there for 3 hours. Aiming for about 45 miles with some hills added in. Hoping roads are nice and quiet

I'll let HID, who's cats they are, know!

Don't get too hot, your start crackling!

AC - your the man, went onto Bsim and its sorted itself. I loaded up a route with lots of ups & downs and the resistance was working for the ups & eased off on the downs. Went back into Zwift to see if it worked on their software and it was working again.

Thank you all for the advice.

Glad to be of help.
I'll let the guys at work know that I actually helped someone,
That's probably a first for a project manager!

Nice 1 those little creaks can be bloody annoying!

I've had a few creaking issues myself, and not just my joints... I thought it was the bb at first but then I noticed I was getting brake rub when I was out of the saddle so think it's just the bearings in my rear hub. I've had a real ordeal trying to source new bearings. Zipp have changed their hubs so many times due to being a bit crap, they're a bit of a bugger to pin down. We're going away next week so it's put a bit of a spanner in the works for DD. I have other wheels so it's not the end of the world but I don't really fancy going up and down mountains on 58mm rims if I can help it! Hopefully they turn up in the next few days.

Fitted some poly bushes with my coilovers on the mini, creak creak creak....
Expensive polybushes coming of and good old OEM's going back on.

My Drachma are on Ilnur Zakarin

Best Grande Tour sprint finish I have ever seen on Friday.
I watched it unfold live and was thinking just what happened when he gapped the OGE riders just before a km to go.
I thought, just keep going, if it comes to nothing at least it means your sprinter can just sit tight in the wheels and let the others lead out

Poly bushes are great, but need to coated on the mating surfaces with copper grease or alike to stop creaks

Indeed yes. I will be hugging your rear tyre. Loads of ghosts have been added.

Steve I apologise in advance

Nice one, bring on Stage 2

3hrs and 43.3 miles completed. Some nasty little bumps, with %'s up to 10-14% I think it's safe to say the 60 miler DD is the one for me. I could comfortably add an extra 20 miles to the ride today ... but not sure I could add an extra 50 miles and 6000ft of climbing. Weighing up the options of 30 extra miles, or a few more beers .... hmmm, the beers are going to win
