Can you ride to my garage in first gear????

Only kidding, but my tools are up in blackbird Leys so I'd need to go to the garage first unless you have the correct sockets etc???

I have correct everything, I don't even need your help, its just more fun with two people And also I am predicting that at least one part of the bike will be rusted and welded in place so I have to drill it out, that's usually how it goes...

AAARGH MY BIKE IS OVER AGAIN! This time on the oppostie side to the stand, cover hanging off, blowing a gale when I got home. Wind is the prime suspect. God I am fed up of keeping my bike outside now.

Oh no.....misery! I didn't think the wind could be that strong to blow a bike over? Maybe your cover is too light and flappy and turns into a sail. Get a heavier duty cover?

Have you got a back passage to enter your garden? You could keep your bike in there.

No back passage sadly. Outside is the only place, I have removed the cover. There is a strap to hold it under the bike, but that seems to have snapped, which I think allowed the cover to balloon.

If you had a back passage, would you put your bike in it?

With a little chain lube I'm sure anything is possible...
