Hi, me again. Like I said above, I bought a couple of Fenders . I'm pretty dissapointed. These things cost quite a bit of money, are way too heavy and I still get splashed all over my feet and back. They don't rattle though, they rock!

Could be your own fault, those are "right hand" you NEED the "left hand" ones for what your trying to accomplish.

New chain and cassette.

I should be dropping in later today to replace a tyre. After just 6 months and several thousand kilometres I've got a nasty tear in my rear tyre. I guess it's served me well.

I bought a 152mm crankset to replace the 170 on my wifes bike. She has arthritis and her knees dont like the bending - I hope this helps. Also had to get a longer BB to get the chainline right.

Because I have been cycling for a couple of years, and have lost weight, I went to my lbs (Motor City Harley) and purchased a new jacket, vest, chaps and boots with red flames to match the jacket. This does count doesn't it?

Sally Edwards "The Heart Rate Monitor Guidebook to Heart Zone Training" at a LBS 7 minutes walk away that I didn't know existed until 20 minute ago...

Got it for £12.95 when Amazon were looking for £17-18, and had delayed me for a few weeks before I cancelled it.

Fate?

Brake cable, ferrules, housing, cable tip and noodle, 2 chains, a cassette, seat bag, mini pump, 2 sets of cleats and a QR skewer. I got a wheel trued at no charge and it was still an expensive afternoon.

They didn't have the shorts I wanted.

Hollywood Team Rider bike carrier...love it already. I use the term "Local" Bike Shop loosely. The shop I support is about an hour and a half away. It's the best shop I've found and he gets my money.

I use the term FBS (Favourite Bike Shop) to describe the shop previously called my LBS (I moved 30 miles away). Luckily (or unluckily depending on your POV) it's on my "default" riding route so I tend to stop in there quite often. The last thing I purchased was a small bottle of lube because during my ride, my chain suddenly started squealing like a... well... squealing chain. I guess I could have waited until I got home but $3 is such a small price to pay for 20 more miles of peaceful riding.

Just made a small purchase at the Supergo online site- a small, four ounce bottle for the handlebars so I can hold some Goo up front, a seat wedgie, brake pads, and a hydration bag that fits on the seat post, which I thought was neat.

All came out to $20.95, when you include shipping and handling.
