I've also read nail-varnish as a suggestion - just to hold it together until you get it through the housing, cut it and get it into an end-cap.

Surely you have some nail-varnish laying around, Zyzz!

The superglue worked..but I snipped off too much of the cable earlier so it doesnt reach..

Only me.

At this stage I could have spelt my name wrong and I wouldn't care

Anyone else fill out the Wiggle online survey? They emailed me a link to it and I decided to fill it in earlier instead of doing the work I'm paid to do in the vain hope that I might win a £1,500 Wiggle voucher.

Weirdly, the money questions are in New Zealand Dollars. The length of the survey had already sucked all of the enthusiasm out of me and I couldn't be arsed checking what a NZ$ was worth against the Euro so I'm not sure just how accurate my data will be. There was also nowhere to input your details, so unless the survey was linked to my email, I've just wasted 20 minutes of my life for nothing.

That said, it was still more interesting than budget forecasting for my department which is what I should have been doing..........:rolleyes:

AstraMonti · 05-09-2013 12:44PM

Yeah I did that survey too, I was baffled with the NZ$ question though. As for the forecasting, give all the money to IT

Ah the great UCD Dublin debate, in case you couldn't figure out where University College Dublin is.

Yesterday and today were the first days I've had on the bike after a couple of lazy beer swilling weeks.

I'm now fooked...wrecked!

Just a few weeks, fitness gone!

Should have stuck to the beer

Lads,

A friend of mine is going to start commuting from Dunboyne train station (M3 parkway) to the city centre.

Is the N3 a safe bet?

Skrynesaver · 05-09-2013 07:07PM

N3 gets ugly going over the M50, I'd prefer to go via the NAC and in the old Ratoath Road into Finglas/Cabra, or even over to Ashbourne and use the old N2

Zyzz · 05-09-2013 08:08PM

Lost 2, possibly 3 KOMs on tonights ride as I forgot to restart my garmin. Absolutely sickening feeling when I realised

Anybody ever do a group night spin? Say it would be good crack going around dark lanes and country roads in the pitch black and cycling till the sun comes up. Was something I was thinking of organising.

Only problem I could see is just the distance, might want to keep it on the shorter side because lads would be knackered by the time you set off.

There's a few of us here who did the Dundalk - Dublin - Dundalk overnight. It's different but enjoyable, except for that last hill near Dundalk.

My club do one every year around parts of Wicklow, sounds like good craic, that or go out with the Audax crowd for the REK400, guaranteed crowd + night cycling (not guaranteed together) :P

I assume 400 is a typo and you mean 140 ;-)

I'd say descending around Wicklow at night is SCARY !!

Nope, he's not kidding...

I've only manages a 360 thus far but I have plans.

Night cycling is really nice. The night closes around you, hills seem to melt away ('cos you can't see the slope of the road). It's just you, the bike and the road.*

*And the bats, foxes and occasional wandering heifer...
