Nelson Rideouts - Where next?

I had to get my live in computer geek to explain that one to me

Well, I suppose "Un-shifted" would have been a moar betterer choice of words...

Found cracks in my coolant bottle today, so what did I do, took it off and put a bit of pressure in it with a bike pump, then put it in a bucket of water to check for leaks, I then got very wet as the bottle exploded!!!

Anyone got a good spare they want to part with?

Nope, sorry...

on the positive side a busted coolant bottle is better than a busted radiator

I wouldn't worry about it too much - how many times have you seen any fluid in it? I have seen bugger all in mine during some pretty nuggety climbs. Otherwise just cable tie another lil bottle in there.

If you are worried you can borrow mine for the dusty.
ps any word from the back blocks of Mot/ Pm me if you want.

My sentiments exactly, I was doing some prep work for the Dusty, maybe it would have lasted, maybe not, so using my 6 P's philosophy
