Pretend you have a single speed and churn that huge gear like Hinault.

(PS - happened me on a spin last year. Rode the last 40kms home in 10th and 20th gear).

Speaking of Koolstop brake pads, does any shop in Dublin stock them? I'm trying to avoid online shopping right now.

The collection point for Dublin 16 is hilariously inaccessible for me. I tried walking it a few weeks ago, it being a nice day and the postman having missed me a few days previously. Two-and-a-half-hour round-trip pushing a double buggy.

Send your stuff to my work place. I'll, eh, "look after it" for you.

If Belfast city doesn't meet UCI specs there may be some significant restructuring required. All modern buildings will have to go, for a start.

Should do. I got a single brake cable recently. Were you expecting to have to buy in bulk or something?

Halfords have some if you're stuck for a LBS.

I bet they're wondering why the locals are so into burning a load of Indian and Cote d'Ivoire flags......

It is a UCI event so the many UCI requirements, some of which defy belief, must be met. Pat will have his way!
