Just a wee note to you all. Ian Bell died a couple of years ago - heart attack mountain biking. Very sad indeed as he was such a great guy. I never laughed as much as when Iain got into full stride with one of his stories! Still in contact with Gillian and Tina.

I might see if Jimmie Mac fancies a go - doubt it though, he's another mountain biking devotee.

Jimmy i am really sorry to hear of the loss of Iain, i didnt know. He was a top guy.

You are right us old schoolers talk of the old days of getting the gearing right all the time!!

Get on jimmies case too!
