Tubeless repair kits are available in 'bicycle size' that work the same as those car ones with the fancy screwdriver and little snotstring. They work a treat and IMHO a must have if you go tjoopless.

Jeez guys I know I'm 'older' than some but I think at least half y'all are making those names up

If I hade the cash I would but I don't so I can't Sorry to say but SRAM is no gaurantee of 'you'll never have shifting problems again' and I ride both. It may be better in the mud but with enough mud it doesn't actually matter what you ride ..........

No worries for me Nothingness - I doubt Trubie was getting hot under the collar rather an observation of the 'hub way' lately

Trubie - time for him to find his own trench then!

- don't worry mate me and Russell we sharing a trench to dodge em 'bool lets'!

AI AI AI ........ Contador was reportedly the rider who failed to keep pace when Columbia's pace at the front of the main peloton started to take it's toll on the bunch. "When the split happened I was right on (behind) Contador's wheel," claimed Fran?aise des Jeux rider Christophe Le Mevel. "If it's true there were 29 guys in front he must have been 30th and I was 31st. It was him who caused the split." http://www.bikeradar.com/news/article/tour-news-evans-and-boonen-surprised-22307

I also remember you smiling at the clubhouse, despite the blood running down your face. On that point you are 100% correct I still enjoy riding but I am starting to get upset with that holly rolla oke keep making snide remarks about my technical ability

But do they wave to the roadies I ask myself ......

This is exactly why I do wear a helmet ......... cause I don't have any 'coiffures'!

My first experience of the roadie wierdo's ...... I had been riding every morning for about 3 weeks (no helmet shhhhh, takkies and running shorts), exactly 12k's as measured in my car. Felt I was now starting to get the speed up a bit and feeling good. So at a work meeting someone starts talking cycling and I chip in 'hey I ride 12k's every morning and today I managed it in 30mins dead', comment from a proper cyclist 'why did you bother to get out of bed!' Nice, not!

It wasn't even my bike ... loaned it from my father in law, had those real fancy brakes you could pull either in the drops or on the top!

Au Swiss, you gonna have Holy drooling and banging his head again!

Janis Joplin - Lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz

A quick discussion with Lil'Ben who is an eggbeater fan and other SPD lovers and he quips 'at least if I'm stuck in the wild I can have scrambled eggs'

That's BrotherBigBen - tougher than the rest of us I guess, in fact LittleBigBen had 2 sets of leg warmers and 2 pairs of socks on!

Oi DR - vat so http://www.33smiley.com/smiley/humor/27.gif

Exactly, check us hubbers 'we got the power' remember like the price fixing - oh wait nothing has come of that yet ......

Me finks that there are LBS's and distributors (amongst others) who have probably decided not to comment on the hub anymore due to some hubbers propensity for shoot from the hip methods ....... but ja just my 20 000 Zim cents worth

Yip we'll be there! I owe Scotty some cold ones and have agreed to make the exchange at that time .....

Ah man so we won't see you on Brackendowns flats or Wattle ......

Ooooops sjoe, luckily the dirty gals aren't around (yet ....) it seems!
