@littlemisslee23 Just wait next they will just rename them traffic calming measures

These pot holes are identifying as plunge pools now… On a serious note though they are becoming very dangerous and the government need to step in and find out why councils aren’t repairing these roads.. we pay our taxes and should be able to drive safely

Andy Reid MBE is deep into his training for the 2026 , and we couldn’t be prouder to cheer him on every step of the way. As many of you know, Andy’s journey is nothing short of remarkable. After sustaining life‑changing injuries in Afghanistan, he rebuilt his life with extraordinary resilience, supported in part by ABF. Today he continues to give back through the Standing Tall Foundation, helping veterans, families and communities across the country. Now, as he tackles months of preparation for one of the world’s most iconic races, Andy is once again showing what determination, purpose and community spirit look like in action. If you’d like to support Andy’s marathon fundraising for ABF and the Standing Tall Foundation, you can do so here: tinyurl.com/AndyReidLM We’ll be sharing more from Andy’s training journey soon — stay tuned and cheer him on! @andyreid2506 #ForSoldiersForLife #LondonMarathon #Fundraising #TeamABF

@HighwaysSWEST You are still allowing cars to join the A303 at the A338 junction, why has this not been closed

The #A303 eastbound is now open Westbound remains CLOSED between the #A338 #Snoddington and #A345 #CountessRbt

The #A303 is CLOSED in both directions between the #A338 #Snoddington and #A345 #CountessRbt to clean a diesel spillage from a broken down vehicle. More info to follow.

@littlemisslee23 One I’ve not heard of, always wanted an RB5 or RB320

@johnson6672 No they were made a few years back based on the Impreza WRX..we do bespoke services and conversations etc now on them.. Only 25 were made

I’ve heard it said that a job like mine is being in “The Rat Race”… Nah it’s only in a rat race when you don’t love what you do.. I love my job and below is just a snippet why.. 🤩

@Fellwanderer82 @UKMTB_Chat @Absolutemtb1 Yep, did it on one of mine, cheap upgrade as well

@UKMTB_Chat @Absolutemtb1 All ready for an xx1 b screw upgrade. Apparently it's a known issue that the GX one is shite and you get play/ghost shifting. Luckily I've a spare i can sort (that did the same as the one on it).

@wiggy_mark @Absolutemtb1 2017, was last year before the Blur I think

@johnson6672 @Absolutemtb1 Thanks What year approximately ?

Happy NBD (to me at least) Thanks to Rob at Pedals Newport for getting it fully sorted for me 😎🤙

@Priceyt @retrobiker1 @Absolutemtb1 @wiggy_mark Before it was painted

@retrobiker1 @Absolutemtb1 @wiggy_mark @johnson6672 Superlight was single pivot…😉

@retrobiker1 @Absolutemtb1 @wiggy_mark Tallboy 2

@Absolutemtb1 @wiggy_mark @johnson6672 think it's a superlight

@wiggy_mark @Absolutemtb1 Tallboy 2 when the Tallboy was still XC, then the re-released the Blur and the Tallboy went longer travel

@Absolutemtb1 Love a Santa Cruz is it a Blur or Superlight ??

@Absolutemtb1 @grayomtb That frame has done a fair few long rides

@grayomtb It’ll be a great pedalling machine for longer rides, it’s so light! However, I miss a 51t cassette and Barzo tyres are terrible in mud 😂

Morning 😎🤙

Ooops

@Absolutemtb1 @grayomtb @JulianJ80289895 Same and on antibiotics for an infection in my finger, been feeling crap since I finished work

@grayomtb @JulianJ80289895 Mine has been lingering for weeks and I think cos I’ve stopped running around, my immune system just went “fuck it” and gave up 😂

I came to realise this year. I fucking hate Xmas. I hope you’ve all had a good one though, stay cool 😎🤙

@SpannerOperator @TotherChris 6T are next to useless from what I have seen, not really big enough for most tasks. Had to chuckle many years ago when 2 lads drove from Catterick to Tidworth to collect a CV12 to be told not in that you aren’t.

@TotherChris Would be good to see us start moving over to DAF. A futher buy of EPLS/PLS but from DAF, while we look at what we require to replace the SV fleet. Id suggest we have too many 6Ts and not enough 9+15T.

⚙ Factory-first thinking for MDL DAF dominates the UK truck segment with nearly 30% market share on British roads. This is more than the next three places (Mercedes-Benz, MAN and IVECO) combined. Most UK registered DAF lorries are manufactured in Leyland, with PACCAR engines white-labelled from Cummins "down the road" from the main Leyland plant. 40% of Leyland DAF's production is exported annually, mainly to Europe. DAF lorries are generally ladder-framed, but lack an offroad structure. In Europe, DAF have solved this with the TATRA tube chassis for the Defence market. A UK alternative to the TATRA tube chassis is just "down the other road" from Leyland. The XC Off-Road System manufactured by NP Aero with Horstman suspension, as equipped to modified Mastiff, Wolfhound and Ridgeback. Heavy boys all three. I encourage the Material Distribution Land (MDL) pipeline team to fund a prototype combining these two UK factory-produced products. Build one in the flesh.

@Absolutemtb1 I find I often sleep bad in hotels and wake a lot through the night, I think part of it for me is fear of sleeping in and being late for whatever it is I have on, if the following day has no firm plans like a travel day I sleep fine

There’s got to be some psychology in this. I’ve been away for 2 nights and slept absolutely terribly in the hotel. I come home and I’m asleep on the sofa within 30 mins and have a great hours sleep 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

@BucksheeSSgt @OnlinePalEng Get them deported to Palestine if they love it so much

@OnlinePalEng Get them on remand.

Several pro-Palestine protestors were arrested in front of the UK Ministry of Justice for chanting, "Globalize the Intifada."

@Absolutemtb1 @grayomtb @farragherc @bouncerbeater Buy cheap, wear once, throw in bin. No thanks

@grayomtb @farragherc @bouncerbeater I’ve never got the fascination with Primark, it’s a place I avoid at all costs 😂

Just been told I've gotta get a wristband a que for a shop 🤷‍♂️🤣🤣 it's ok pal I'll take my money elsewhere

@Absolutemtb1 I had an expensive ride out on the road bike, lost my Exposure rear light 😭

Cracking ride out this morning, but I misjudged the weather and I was bloody freezing!
