Saul Posted April 28, 2024 Share Posted April 28, 2024 Cooling off after a round trip to Costa with my youngest. Most expensive chain lube I didn’t get. Only popped out for lube but they never had any so then the Costa monkey was in want. To be fair she is good company but it always seems to cost me. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was there a specific brand of chain lube that you were after? I should have shares in Costa! Often the only place to get a coffee in the hospitals as a visitor when I was working! Used to cost me a fortune, especially when I had a colleague with me! Somehow it always seemed to be down to me to buy the coffees and buns! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Must admit whenever we get a coffee at work the clinician is always in the chair to pay, but to be fair they do earn 4 x what I do.

Tango Posted April 28, 2024 Share Posted April 28, 2024 Well, it has been pissing it down all day today, but we certainly needed some rain! The forecast for the week is looking pretty similar too. So, no bike action for me this week by the looks of it. Then we're over in blighty for a bit over a week, visiting family, so no bike action then either! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Fallsalot Posted April 28, 2024 Share Posted April 28, 2024 Met Gary at 09.00 this morning and got home at 21.00 tonight so in 12 hours you would think we'd ridden about 500 miles but no we only covered 120 miles spent most of the time talking It was good to catch up with him probably been over five years since we last rode together he's 61 and retired all he does is cycle exercise and ride his motorbike jammy git. And only managed to take one photo all day 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
