    Whats with all the snobbery around warranty work?

    I'm guessing that each manufacturer has their own way of doing things. I used to work in the IT industry - acer would pay for everything usually. Other manufacturers were not so generous. As Gary said, researching stuff, determining it to be a warranty issue, organising an rma, packing and...

    I'm in a fb group for local riders. This dude posted asking if anyone was interested in a night ride (nov 20th). He's running a 21" led light bar :ROFLMAO:

    Hand protection - specifically knuckles

    I've got a huge history on bikes and motorcycles. Most hand injuries seem to be palm related from putting your hand out to break a fall; that could also damage your wrist or break your collar bone or both. However, I do understand the anxiety of riding with an injury that is still healing and...

    Post Us Dog' In Pictures

    My mother used to have a dog, Molly. Molly used to bury bones and stuff in the garden. When we visited, Ella used to go straight to the garden, dig up molly's stuff, and re bury it in a different location. She'd use her nose to fill the new hole up. Molly was anxious whenever Ella came

    Aggressive dogs

    I used to have a whippet that loved doing "fly bys" :rolleyes:. I'd ride my bike on the road, she had to run on the grass nature strips next to the road. If I said "left" she'd take the next left - that was so I didn't turn into her. If I slammed to a halt - she'd be with me like it was a game...

    Yeah, what not to do :ROFLMAO:. And all those rocks that he didn't even consider! That is strange though - I'm guessing it must have young nearby? Yeah, if it was spring I'd oblige the cat. Let it know I was leaving but I wasn't going to let it get close.

    Aggressive dogs

    They actually see bikes as animals. I used to know one that would try to bite the front wheel. It's the same with dogs that try to get vacuum cleaners or brooms. I disagree with the whole "don't kick" thing. If a dog is having a real go at me - I go in boots and all. They know when you mean it...

    Superwheel !

    don't know - I imagine it was a business thing - new company formed or the concept was bought out and promoted. A girlfriend of the day saw it on sale (very cheap) in a store that is the Australian equivalent of walmart. I had it for a while not knowing the magic of it. It was in the days of...

    Anyone found a good bike stand to free spin back wheel?

    Big piece of cardboard that used to be a box that something came in, and a block for the left side of the handlebar to keep the shimano switchgear off the ground - put the bike upside down. It's very versatile. I do the same in the bush if doing repairs. I can spin the front wheel too...

    Tools on bike

    backpack :ROFLMAO:. I suppose it really depends where you ride. I'm probably 2hrs walk from any assistance wherever I ride; longer in many places. It's our summer now - I usually carry a litre of water too (first aid kit, tools, tube, plugs, pump, some survival gear, compass etc).
