    Unexplained events and mysteries

    I remember an event that had me and my family puzzled when I was in my early teens. Now in those days my Dad had a Reliant Regal Supervan 3 in yellow, which if one did not know what they are, they are 3 wheeled vehicles designed to get round UK laws enabling those with a motorcycle licence to...

    Practical Cycling.

    I am wondering if the timing of the bottom bracket flex can be measured? If it springs back quickly it is to ones advantage, but if it returns slowly it will sap energy. I think that is something that can be measired?

    Practical Cycling.

    Even though both are full 531c, they feel different, as one feels lighter and more refined, as if more time was spent on making it? Though both are of a good quality build. The lugs seem nicer? They are not fancy lugs, but they seem lighter and nicer somehow? I think both bikes have similar...

    Practical Cycling.

    I have a Birdy folding bike instead. Not sure if we can buy Bike Friday folders in the UK but I have seen one in the past that came into the UK by plane from the USA with its owner. I bought the Birdy as I had a steep hill to ride back home where I was living, and I needed a folder at the time...

    What age did you guys realise how important socialising and social skills were?

    It puzzled me what it meant. I was asked on a few occasions (Usually by women) where I socialize. So I asked someone what it meant and I was told where people go drinking. I don't drink so I don't socialize I guess? The thing is, I can chat ok on a one to one, but I tend to be left out when...

    Talking About Trains...

    Ok... Taking a break from the loco project for now, and taking a look at the coach that came with it, it is interesting to convert each coach to make two smaller coaches. (These toy coaches come in red and blue, and only have doors on one of their sides. I show a blue one to show what they look...

    Talking About Trains...

    Trying to remember, but an 0-4-0 has four coupled wheels via connecting rods, and if memory serves me correctly, under the old classification, an 0/4/0 was a loco that had four driven wheels coupled via gears. But if the same 4 wheels were not directly coupled to each other via gears and had...

    Talking About Trains...

    Now it is also possible to use a 4 wheel chassis with this little loco. We call 4 wheeled locos where all four wheels are coupled and therefore driven 0-4-0's, and the tanks carrying water are either side tanks (Know as just T), saddle tanks (Known as ST), pannier tanks (Known as PT), well tanks...
