  1. .. ended up getting him a carbon tri-spoke front wheel as we came across onbe at a very good price.
    I haven't yet managed to stop the offspring floating up by the ceiling ;-) he's got his mates round
    here to night and they've all had to view said wheel and be told exactly why a carbon wheel is
    wonderful. hehehe...

    The cats bought him a Matrix Reloaded DVD - so it wasn't all cycling.

    Cheers, helen s

    Oh no - one offspring is definitely enough. Nothing personal - honest - it's just I remember the
    birthing procees with *horror* and offspring are expensive ;-)

    I've been making big hints towards my cats, I reckon the three of them should get me a trike,
    being cats.

    Very nice present I have to admit!

    Has he got tribars? That's the next thing really. And if he's only got one bike an adjustable stem
    (Giant do nice ones) so that he can get the front low while using tribars but still have a usable
    positionm the rest of the time.

    Well, that's his next few birthdays and Christmas taken care of...

    So he hasn't taken the cats' helpful hint that his carbon tri-spoke is an old steel job of only
    vague circularity from a 1975 Raleigh Arena ten-speed that has been dressed up in virtual reality
    clothing? ;-)

    As a rough guide somewhere between 400 and 900 squids depending on the make. I suspect the canny PSF
    drove a slightly harder bargain than that though. :-)

    The felines of Chateau Simmons are thoughtful cats. Every year, at certain times, I am taken over by
    feline mind control & packed off to Digby's of Holt chocolate shop in Norwich, where I am willed to
    buy six chocolate mice and have them gift-wrapped in a golden box tied with blue curling ribbon.
    These are for "Paw" ;-) I am also willed by feline mind-control to buy DVDs for the offspring.

    I cannot overcome this. I am doomed.

    Cheers, helen s (matron says I must go lie-down in a room with padded walls now, and have some nice
    soothing medication) --This is an invalid email address to avoid spam-- to get correct one remove

    Indeed. Don't they get expensive as they get older!

    Don't knock it, wheels are one of the best places to loose weight on a cycle.
