Hope everyone has a great weekend! The weather is forecast NE winds, so that should be good for keeping you dry, if not warm!

The whole VED system is bulls**t though, as they are taxing ownership, not use.

Why, did you think it might go down? You know its going to go up and up, because they are looking at a direct debit system for it!

Now the real nerves start I bet!

And I spotted yours in Tescos car park on saturday

Whole thread on it from last year if you search. I bought one plus a pro foam gun from Envy and its spot on

Looks good for 900 sheets Do you know how much it weighs?

Went up to watch the famous local gel-and-bananafest, the Fred Whitton Round today, 1700 entrants doing every lakeland pass in one go!

Have fun in the Lakes/carlisle, let me know if you want any info.

Good pics all, looks like you had a great day for it Was there any interesting conversations with Nissan?

Nice bikes Col. I had a wee pootle round Whinlatter with my mate Blommers yesterday evening, I was well unfit after nearly three weeks off the bike! Today Me and Fran took her new bike up to the woods to session a rooty section and test her new setup. The main changes were fitting a layback seat post, and some slightly wider bars. She seems happy so far, we just need to do a long ride now to see how that goes.

Nice parking!

Best colour by far

Take a veeeeeery long lunch!

For exterior use: 1) make sure the surface is spotless, i used some QD and a microfibre. 2) "moisten" that sucker! Use QD, spit, water etc....

Good effort, but are you sure you don't fancy a helmet if you're pushing on?

Nice, could have washed her for the photoshoot though!

Must have carried over the 4WD surely? What would be the point in 600+bhp through the front wheels?

Feck. When's he painting the bonnet?

FAO James: You probably still have the best dropper post in the world. Crank Bros scrapped the Joplin coz it was rubbish, guess what? New Kronolog also rubbish! http://www.pinkbike.com/news/Crankbrother-Kronolog-Telescoping-Seat-Post-Tested-2012.html Anyone who reads this, do me a favour. No matter how tempted you are by the design, DON'T BUY ANY CRANK BROS PRODUCTS! It's all made of cheese! I had some of their pedals that were poorly sealed and became squeeky after a couple of months, so if they can't even get that right I certainly wouldn't trust anything more complicated.

For the sake of 8% difference, why you wouldn't put super in anyway is a mystery to me.

Being in the position of having owned the Zed since spangly new, I've had exactly one third of a tank of 95 in it in 20,000 miles of ownership. And it was in Scotland during the first Hoon. And I wept.....

Hard work this Life of Leisure stuff isn't it Ian? I'm still trying to convince Fran I should be a kept man
