Bike Maintainence Destruction



I had a call off my 14 year old nephew asking me how to get the three piece cranks off his BMX. He said they were stuck on but wasn't sure why. I explained about taking the axle bolt off, knocking the crank arms off, pushing the axle through the bottom bracket shell etc, etc. He said he'd done that but they weren't budging so I told him to wait a day or so and I'd do it for him.
When I turned up at his house he told me he'd got the cranks off his bike. As you can tell by the photos, he really had.
So a Fit Trail Flow frame was destroyed and even crazier, the wood saw he partly used was also destroyed.

Austin Tweed


SandyCarson.com has got some snaps up on his site from an Austin Tweed Ride. Riding on weed in tweed.
Dressing up in fancy clothes to go for a ride, how long till there is a fetish ride?

1st of 2010



Weather has been pretty crap for the start of 2010. No big deal cos it's no fun cycling on ice. A group of us made it out to West Kirby for fish, chips and mushy peas washed down with danelion & burdock and pots of tea.
Somewhere on the route home Clifford decided to take a solo detour to the local doggin car parks. We eventually managed to find him and spend the rest of the night in The Swinging arm in Birkenhead.

New Brighton. Old shit


After decades of talking about it work has finally started on some sort of development to New Brighton. First thing they have done is drain the Marine Lake to reveal a rusty, bike graveyard.
You can't polish a turd.

Sno way, it's sno joke





Have you noticed the snow this week? It looked ace so we went to Mold in North Wales. It's only a 40 minute drive from home but was super snowtastic there. I've never been in snow deeper than a few inches so this was crazy for me because it was at least knee deep everywhere. So deep that some clown drove off the end of the car park.
I have a snowboard and a jacket, i borrowed the pants and boots but i have no gloves so i created some, 'Ghetto-Gloves' by putting on some Marigolds under some 3 quid gloves.
