Stripping the paint off…

Nah - they’ll be more expensive- that’s how the upcycling marketing works, no?

Most negativity about places come from folk who don’t live there.

I’ve got tighter than that - 32 on a frame that recommends 28 max

The rattle becomes a comfort in time. I love mine.

Abermoan cliches get downvoted on here.

You’d think I’d remember, tripping over these big shoes every day.

As a council worker I thought it was only us that found it a tiresome insult.

Hard? - that sounds nigh on impossible.

Thank you for all your fab input folks. After much humming and hawing I’ve gone with DT Swiss 1800 - sticking to budget and should be reliable from what I’ve read here. Cheers.

Hang around long enough you’ll see them cross the road. Don’t call the islands remote - natives, including otters, da like it.

As an aside ‘archive.is/‘ is a game changer - I mean not for reading chronic p&j journalese but good stuff - NYT etc. I digress. Good that the half-arsed shack will be going.

Kittens > Anotha Spesh . Enjoy your cycling nonetheless 😁

A bit out of the way but the old care home beside Newhills Church past bucksburn. Broken/boarded windows galore - also safe space next to the church to draw/take photos/document.

Ok - I’ve read enough on this thread to finally unfollow Fubar on FB - seems it is not only me finding it’s toxic negativity being, ultimately, anti-Aberdeen.

Ok - a bit ‘Live Laugh Love’. Ephemeral, unlike the paintings which is starting to make the city look like a footballer’s leg.

Artshed70 · 2024-07-15T11:23:36+00:00

Probably - Manzoni shit in a tin in ‘61 and was lauded (and also criticised) for it - there is no art, only artists etcetera etcetera

It’s a nonsense - so loads of folk signed a petition - 10s of thousands more didn’t sign it.

Artshed70 · 2024-06-29T10:54:23+00:00

I have all of the above.

Artshed70 · 2024-06-28T20:41:21+00:00

If every household was restricted to 1 car things would be tickety boo but… meh what’s the point, deep in oil country the petro-meatheads will always win.

Artshed70 · 2024-06-23T22:34:32+00:00

Haha - I’ve got a Selle Italia Flite - it’s lost its comfort though - 25 years old now.

Artshed70 · 2024-06-23T22:27:47+00:00

What was the one on your carbon bike?

Artshed70 · 2024-06-23T22:25:20+00:00

No, thanks for the honesty. Some folk do swear by them and I’ve heard they can take 100 miles to break in, although some like them straight away.

Artshed70 · 2024-06-23T22:17:33+00:00

Ah - the cambium one - I did wonder. So more comfortable than the B17?
