Brake Pads
... in the wet and I wouldn't classify myself as a breaking demon so what would be the better compound to use. I do want to do a trackday or two this year and there is the euroday next year so pads that cover that as well as road riding.

Re: 2015 Euro Track Date

Re: Be careful out there
Car drivers and bike riders are both to blame in situations like these.
These riders could of been fair weather riders or all year commuters and their luck just ran out. Either way always sad to hear about fellow riders getting knocked off

Re: The new improved fitness thread
Valley of the Lillies Half Marathon today in 1:52:35, which is two minutes slower than last year so I was somewhat disappointed. However, due to a really harsh winter, I did ALL my training indoors on a treadmill, so I was actually just secretly hoping to break the 2 ...

... it I walk out. I've also lost the desire for brand loyalty, both for the phone manufacturer and the network. The support I've had over the last 2 year contract has been shockingly poor, combined with the 2 mid-contract price rises has kind of killed my 7 year loyalty to O2. Next, I'm going to ...

... not to get in the way of too many of the proper riders. Does that cover most of the subjects you have.? Ah, yes, dizzyw I ski at least once a year, but tend to avoid the slopes these days as they are awash with knuckle dragging boarders & nimbi poseur types. (giggle)

Re: The Dropped my Bike like a plonker thread....
My current bike last year cleaning it on the paddock stand, then decided to lube the chain so thought it would be ok to have the engine running and the rear wheel rolling as to warm the chain up for me to lube ![Faceplam (facepalm)](./images/smilies/facepalm.jpeg)
Turned around to fetch the lube and BANG bike on the floor.
