Thank you, problem resolved. (I couldn't understand why everytime I went into Forums that I would end up at the first page every time).

I take it that you've searched BikeHub's marketplace if you're also entertaining secondhand or n'used shoes?

Let us know how? Maybe DM?

Another major problem (to cyclists) is that motorists are not on the lookout for cyclists. As motorist interact 99% of the time, on the road, with other vehicles they've lost the mental reminder that there are bicycles on the road. Because bicycles are generally slower, definitely smaller, less visible (black helmet, black bike & black kit), without flashing lights (front and back) then are not seen on an otherwise busy road, especially when motorists are not looking out for them. As a "good" and "respectful" cyclist we generally hug the left side of the road/pavement so to not disturb the flow of faster moving traffic and so motorists have become used to us as just being another annoying obstacle that doesn't appear to have a right to interact with motorised transport. Many roads that we use haven't been designed to accommodate bicycle transport and so we are again seen as an interference in the flow of traffic. Unless there is some kind of campaign to put cyclists back into the minds of motorists then we'll always be seen (not seen) as an annoyance and not as a valid road user that has the same rights as any other vehicle on the road.

So happy...

Thanks, that sounds great..

Thanks Robert but the V800 takes a wider strap where it attaches to the watch.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a Polar V800 watch strap as mine just split apart. So if you've got a broken/ not working watch that you're looking to get rid of (or sell) I'll be happy to take it off you and pay for Pudo...

Thank you sir. She's quite a heavy bike so she'll be good on short rides..

Hey Guys, While the experts are focused on past restorations today I thought I'd post a pic of an old bike I picked up two years ago on an auction. It's a Carlton Kermesse (as stated on the frame) with a 5 sprocket rear cassette. The rear wheel appears that can be flipped around (I assume) to use with a single gear on the other side. With a bit of grease/oil on the running parts and one new tube the bike was rideable but haven't due to wanting to save the old tyres. My question is: what is this bike worth and although it is "rideable" is it worth keeping it as it is?

I once suffered from the above. I awoke one morning and sat up and I suddenly felt as though I was on a boat plunging over a large wave. It felt as though the floor, in front of me, was falling away and I felt instantly nauseous. Someone did indicate to me what to do (as in the video above) and it came right. I did repeat the manoeuvre the next day as I still had a mild vertigo effect. I've never had a problem after that but it really can't be described as simple dizziness. The vertigo effect can feel very violent.

One unfortunate point is that if (after a sale) you give the seller a low rating for not selling you what he advertised or not supplying you according to your specs, as requested, he will give you a low rating back (making up a false story) just out of spite because you gave him a low rating. There should be a referee (admin) to adjudicate should this matter arise.

Maybe you should try to identify if it's a blood pressure LOW or a sugar LOW. Some folk react to a sugar high (race day) and then have a bad sugar low the day after but that is more of a fatigue, not dizziness. It is termed reactive hypoglycemia. Do you take adequate rehydration solutions for 18 hours after a race. A mixed solution next to the bed helps if you wake thirsty in the middle of the night. Also are you eating sufficiently (protein) shortly after a long ride to help you recharge the energy levels

I was experiencing a badly laid out Home Page (things were quite jumbled). Endured it for a week or so but it has come right now - on my cellphone. Thank you...

A cheap alternative (costs nothing) is to cut a liquifruit carton out in the shape of your shoe insole. Place it underneath the shoes existing insoles, silver side up, and it will help eliminate the cold from entering under the shoe and help insulate the heat of the foot from escaping downwards. Warm (hiking) socks and booties (bought second hand on Bhub) round off my winter foot gear. Some shoes are warmer than others depending on the thickness of the venting fabric they are made with.
