  1. And that is how I managed 70!
  2. Hi Addy! As far as speed goes, that is about right. Sits comfortably at 50, with no wind I can get 60, and downhill, wind behind me and lying on the tank I have had 70! Mpg doesn't sound quite right though. Mine is a 94 with nearly 47k on the clock and I am getting around 75 mpg on average. I use premium petrol which has made about 7-8% difference. I have also fitted a 15 tooth front sprocket instead of 14. This hasn't made a great deal of difference to mpg but has to the top end speed. I live near Cambridge so haven't too many hills to worry about with the lack of power going through the gears. My 5'7, 11 (ish) stone frame makes a good sail so I can imagine 6' plus acts as an effective parachute!
  3. A belated welcome!
  4. Glad you're ok - nothing like ending up on your arse to prove you're alive! Most car drivers don't pay much attention to anything else on the road - more so if there's not a lot of traffic about. Can't believe nobody stopped though. Ps not all car drivers are crap - I relented to the comfort of climate control this morning!

  6. The splines had completely rounded off on mine - I ended up grinding a flat spot, tapping a thread through the lever and using a grub screw to hold it in place

  10. I went to the cheese counter at Tesco on my way home and the girl behind the deli started throwing cheddar at me. I said 'That's mature!'................
