      Without a doubt, on a sunny day around by the market and pier, its cars that are the nuisance.

      Cars are the nuisance generally in Dublin, but you don't see that until you walk and cycle.

      Didn't think this question warrants a thread so ask here. What is the maximum if any cyclists in a line permitted.

      i don't understand the question. do you mean i have to be responsible for someone cycling in front or behind me?
      i can be responsible for ensuring there are not three cyclists inside of me. not sure how i can appy that logic to people in front or behind me.

      That too slow too fast line, reminds me of time a delivery truck close passed me then pulled in 10metres ahead of me.

      When asked him why he'd done that, he replied "you where going too fast, and made it difficult for me to pass you"

      Legs or head not in it today, currently having a coffee @60kms. Had planned a 100km spin but might just ramble the 10k home from where I am, something inside keeps at me though telling me these are the days that matter when training.

      It depends on what you;re training for. Sometimes it's better to call it earlier than planned and get the rest that is as important as the training.

      Just general training heading for fitness and weight loss. I have targets and goals that I'm after. I was 121kg have that down to 100 but struggling to get lower now so upping my game

      I was thinking of renaming the thread in your honour Rob, but when I realised you were OK I thought I wouldn't give you the satisfaction :pac:
      Spoiler
      Glad your OK though, a terrifying experience no doubt

      I was in (shudder) Ikea today, and hefted and sat up on one of their flatpack bikes. Surprisingly light and nice, despite my leprechaun-like size. And they had an extremely nice trailer http://www.ikea.com/ie/en/products/ikea-family-products/bicycle-bicycle-accessories/sladda-bicycle-trailer-art-50345641/ too, though it wasn't very clear exactly how it attached to the bike. They're currently selling the bike for roughly €450 and the trailer for €160.

      i was also in ikea today. that was a mistake. must be because the schools are still off. and them they announced they were having trouble with credit card payments. i was expecting mass panic.

      we assumed 11am on a wednesday would be OK.
      i got the hulk rage trying to buy light bulbs. what they have on the shelves vs. what the signs on the shelves indicate appears to be completely random. actually, worse, because the signs can be misleading.

      though back to the bikes, my main concern would be customer support. what happens if you've a hub issue, for example? do they have staff who know how to deal with it?
