Only trouble is, my rear wheel is a screw through, not a quick release or bolt, so I need something attached to the saddle post. Can't find anything else out there. Bolt-through rear for touring is an unusual...

Re: Rangers FC really are goooooone
Sounds like the right time for Rangers to apply to join the Blue Square Bet North Conference. Never know, twenty years or so, they might make the Championship.

Re: The Android thread
Does it use loads more battery leaving the wifi on? Probably it does, but like something definitive if poss. I'd always leave it on, wifi uses less juice than data does so if you've a choice between the two, wifi wins. Also, leaving it on uses less juice than manually turning it on and off or the a...

Back brake for slowing down, front brake for stopping! Have heard that before, what's the reason behind it? I just tend to use both brakes for everything.
