William Whittaker replied to Barry Norsworthy's discussion Mending punctures - How many times ?"Too late!
You commented on the thread and have therefor drawn the attention of the puncture fairy...
Oh... wait..."
William Whittaker replied to heather's discussion injured AC cyclists"No, the orthopaedic surgeon didn't think it was necessary and I have a strong aversion to general anaesthetics (had a few surgeries and a general really hits me hard), so I just went with that."
William Whittaker replied to heather's discussion injured AC cyclists"Don't believe them - I came off the bike at 50kph. No gravel rash, broken collarbone with multiple fragments and a decent separation. I think I would have preferred the gravel rash..."
William Whittaker replied to heather's discussion injured AC cyclists"I went through this last year - I tried using a trainer a couple of times, but it hurt too much. In the end, I was off the bike (on advice of the orthopedic surgeon) for 12 weeks. Unfortunately, if you smash your collarbone there isn't a lot…"
William Whittaker replied to Brooke Whatnall's discussion RunKeeper Users?"I used RunKeeper before getting my Garmin - my two problems with it were that it ripped through the battery on my iPhone and its accuracy was a little... random (anywhere up to 500m)...
A colleague at work uses it for his running and he has…"
William Whittaker replied to Pip's discussion Water from my hydration backpack tastes awful!"I would have suggested Milton's to disinfect it, as I use that on my bidons every so often and never have it taste odd afterwards - that isn't your experience with a hydration bladder, Rob?"
William Whittaker replied to Tom Mileham's discussion Insurance"Well, when I made a claim with Velosure, they told me to drop the bike in at BMCR for it to be appraised/repaired and then told me what was going to be replaced once I paid the excess. The claim process was easy and hassle free - fill in a form,…"
William Whittaker replied to Pip's discussion Water from my hydration backpack tastes awful!"Have you tried leaving a bicarb and water mix to soak in it for a while? I have found that has usually taken the edge of the plastic taste out of things - never tried it with a hydration pack bladder, though."
William Whittaker replied to Tom Mileham's discussion Insurance"Velosure - they provide insurance for the nike without having to have any other kind of insurance with them.

William Whittaker replied to Kathryn H's discussion Cleats"Another vote here for Steve @ Corsa Cycle Centre - I have bought both bike and shoes there and he has been very helpful."
William Whittaker replied to David B.o.R.'s discussion Best Burns."Forget the road hazard - I would have thought that it would be classified as assault?"
William Whittaker replied to Brooke Whatnall's discussion Good riding sunnies?"Contact lenses not an option?"
William Whittaker replied to Brooke Whatnall's discussion Good riding sunnies?"Owning a pair of Jawbones, I feel compelled to disagree with how you think they look :P
Of course, that being said, the only place to wear them is riding - never wear them otherwise ;)"
William Whittaker replied to Brooke Whatnall's discussion Good riding sunnies?"Oakley make good riding eye ware. I have a pair of Jawbones which are very good - and there is a fairly wide range of lenses available fir them. By all reports the jacket ranges (half, flak etc) are quite good as well."
