Now that’s a speech. That is a president. That is the clincher. If you’re American and able to vote. Listen to this and get to work. Do not vote for the Trumped up idiot. Kamala all the way.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

If you’re still on the fence about voting in this election, think about what really matters – about the values we were taught, the kind of country we want to be, and how this is a moment when your vote really does count. 

Your vote could determine the fate of our republic – the world that our children and grandchildren will inherit. It’s an awesome responsibility. But what an extraordinary privilege it is to live in a democracy that gives each of us the opportunity to make our voices heard.

Thanks for all the tips. After a brief stint with Magped magnetic pedals (which seemed good but broke on RideLondon, stuck & made me fall over at the end of RideReigate and ended up nearly killing me in Camberwell) — I have gone for the classic Keo’s and they are ace.

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

Any tips for riding in clipless pedals? About to try some ‘Look Keo’ pedals. I hated the metal shimano things. Hoping the big plastic numbers are easier to unclip.

The team at @SomeOnes_Tweet did a lovely job on this. https://t.co/CULIFxx4cK

@katylcowan @creativeboom Watch for Typefoundries that do not want to work with projects of any scale. Many foundries now have rules & legalities that kill choices & force clients to resort to free fonts when faced with uncertain financial fees that often penalise the success of the design.

@katylcowan Japanese Maple 🍁 Super beautiful.

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

@_andsomething @canyon_bikes Yes! Did it! Was brilliant. Really enjoyed it. Have you had a go at it?

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

Loving the new @canyon_bikes #aeroad

So fast, slick and smart. The electronic SRAM shifting is a game changer.

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

@PlasticCrayons @_philmillward Oh I love it there. Great idea. Thank you.

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

If I was trying to find this bolt and nut combo. What would I ask for? One is a standard countersunk bolt. But the other is a kind of hollow version of the bolt. Both with Allen key hex socket tops.

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

@m108_k536 Love the GLEAMING. what’s the pink bit on the fork?

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

@jrainsford Yes. Could be. Seen descriptions saying ‘book binder’

I’ve ordered something curious on Ebay. Let’s see!

Thanks for your help.

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

@_philmillward What a mission. I think it’s this.

Does the m3 bolt work with the m4 barrel nut?

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

@_philmillward Thanks for your help though!

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

@jrainsford 3mm thread. 15mm long. Bolt. I think that makes it an M3?

The hollow version, that has the thread on the inside. Not outside… that the M3 goes into?

No idea of what they are called.

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

Anyone doing RideLondon on Sunday?

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

@danielmather They look very cool. Gonna work my way up to them. It’s less the clip in I fear. And more the foresight to clip out before the car pulls in / buss slams on brakes / child runs into road. London roads are hard to predict!

[Simon Manchipp @manchipp]

@PlasticCrayons You lovely man! Thank you! I’ve got the pedals here now. So will give them a go near soft landings and let you know!
