If it moves and it shouldn't = duct tape or zip ties. If it should move and it doesn't = WD40 or liquid wrench.

65'er has the John Cleese pic as his avatar here. if I ever saw another picture of him in life I'd probably doubt its veracity.

Edit out any bicycle crashes before you watch them. It may be stressful for your bicycle to see a crash. For that reason as well, do not watch "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" or "The Bicycle Thief" with your bike.

I recall I too once posted that 65'er's avatar was John Cleese, but as I remember, he himself, of whom we speak, corrected me that it is Michael Palin.

Yep, And No one expects the Spanish Inquisition, either. It is one of those Python dudes I'm sure, they all look the same to me.
