Overnighter
Well we're off to 'compete' in the jole rider 12hr night baton relay. 8pm to 8am round Hullavington airfield. Well, at least there aren't any hills... 
While we're there wel'll be testing some lights: a couple of basic commuter LED units, a couple of high-end rechargeables, two cheap 'n' cheerful torches and a heath-robinson creation of my own devising. look out for the results on Monday. or Tuesday, if we fall asleep at the keyboard.
The ride is in aid of Jole Rider, a charity which sends bikes out to Africa for schoolchildren, some of whom have to walk more than ten miles a day. They also provide workshop tools and training so the bikes can be fixed when they break.
If you're feeling charitable, why not nick over to http://www.justgiving.com/nbr_hk and bung them a few quid?
If you're new please join in and if you have questions pop them below and the forum regulars will answer as best we can.

Yep, I didn't see that part of the story. It's an appalling case. A life ban from driving would be suitable here.

Don't know how long you've been dish soap to wash your drive chain but dish soap and aluminium dont mix. It causes galvanic corrosion
