How have Labour watched the Tories spend 2-3 years parroting Farage then lose an election badly and conclude a similar strategy is the best course of action?
I. Really. Genuinely. Do Not. Get. It.

So proud of our flagship Kent Council, who cut wasteful spending by painting yellow lines outside a school that has been closed for nine years.

Hmmmโ€ฆ.Not sure about that. Sheโ€™s been rejected and, I think, is now grovelling to find new support. Sheโ€™s clearly finding itโ€™s not nice when the boot is on the other foot.

The article sayโ€™s one of the downsides is weight/hill climbing, but thatโ€™s probably comparing it to a 7kg carbon bike. Mineโ€™s got the DT Swiss PR1400 wheelset, which lightens things up quite nicely๐Ÿ‘

Mason Definition 3.0 Continues to define how good an aluminium road bike can be, especially for steady, long miles

Itโ€™s a mile munching fast road set up, not racing, which is more aggressive, and not touring, which has a much more relaxed geometry and probably heavier. Mines got the V2 frame, which has now been replaced by the V3โ€ฆ.hereโ€™s a review of that: road.cc/content/revi...

Measure your shoulder widthโ€ฆif your average size/build, as I am, Iโ€™d go for 44cm, which is what both my road bikes have.

Did they find that and show you when you dropped it off? If not, I would dispute that with them.
