Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
A guy came round to view the bike last night. He'll decide today if he wants it and let me know. If he buys it he lives near Stu's mum. This means I may still see it and will feel inclined to run up to it and give it a hug and apologise to it for selling it it a 14 stone man who will take it out in all weathers every day of the year to commute into London rather than keeping it in a nice warm garage and cleaning and polishing once a month and riding it only occasionally on sunny dry days with other SVs.

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Apologise for selling a bike to someone who will use it for what it was designed to do?
I guess I view things differently as my bike is my main mode of transport

(Or perhaps he just commented that when I sat on it it didn't sag at all so I was still on tiptoe, whereas with him it went down quite a few inches with his 14 stone of bulk!)

Chrome keeps on failing to load pages, or they freeze.
Looks like a re-install
