Re: Disc brake bleeding am I risking my life???
Looks a useful bit of kit. I've used a ezibleed kit on my Landrover and l this looks a similar principal.
Once the system is bleed/purged of air it will be safe.

Re: Tyres-yet again.
Just changed a 25mm Gatorskin, 3500 or so miles with 1 puncture. All done on fixed, The tyre was usable but I didn't feel it was reliable any more. All my riding is now done on country roads, more thorns but less broken glass.

Re: Snap..

Any make you care to mention from williams to campag in both steel and alloy.
Even when I held a 2nd cat road race licence I weighed 14 1/2 stone plus and although I am a fairly smooth pedaler I wasn't scared of big gears.
However I only broke one crank racing, in a 73mile hilly time trial, the rest had been passed down from machine to machine eventually ending up on the fixed hack bike. As I became older and wiser and perhaps a little richer I would buy new cranks from time to time. I do like nice new shiny things

Re: Your Favourite Cycling Book Is....?
I have three bound volumes of The Cheshire Roads News: 1940-44, 1945-48, 1949-52. These were my Godfathers, F L Lee, Who was a life member of the Norwood Paragon who moved to Cheshire on war work in 1940 and joined the 'Ches'. These amount to a cycling soap opera, faithful, indetail records of club runs, socials, club politics, members going of to war and sadly some not returning and all the various details of a club trying to maintain normality in abnormal times.
A cracking read
How the club managed to produce typeset, letterpress printed, hard back volumes in that time of austerity is, to me, a mystery

Re: Speed cushions
what is the problem, they are to slow traffic. Never had a problem riding over them myself, ok some are a bit too agressive so you slow down a bit.
