veteran bike courier can't get crank arm off...
Use a mallet or hammer to bang a wooden wedge in to force out the crank. Shouldn't damage the crank or frame.

Creative Couriers looking for cargo bike rider, once again
Due to Sax taking a leave of abscence, Posh Jon bringing his temporary assignment to a close, and Max's knees being uncooperative, Creative are looking for cargo bike riders again.

I can't recall ever speaking to Patton in person, or had email or any other communication with him etc. I may have said to you that I thought that he was on very dodgy ground legally, as he revealed information that most companies would consid…

"But you did delete Patton's posts in the City Sprint thread or am I grossly mistaken? " I can't stop, and nor would I want to, anyone from deleting stuff that they have posted. However, I wouldn't delete stuff that some…

Any tips on preventing a sore ass?
If you're using conventional cycling shorts, you should be using some sort of chammy cream, or just vaseline, otherwise you get chafing, and then sores. If 'proper' cycling shorts don't work for you, don't use them. My gf …

Excel "circuit charge fee"
Check your contract. Circuit fees are common at cash based cab companies, but not at all the norm (in my experience) at London courier companies. Some companies have bonus schemes to reward attendance etc, but this sounds like a negative bonus, IYS…

Nothing, apart from a good laugh when I reread the citysprint thread in which he posted all that stuff... :wink: probably this forum's finest hour!

Not a chance, not only do I not have any desire to, I don't feel it's my place to & I also will not be there until after 8.

I'd just like to point out that MT was around before twitter, facebook & lfgss. Not some social media johnny come lately!

Going to ECMC 2012 Edinburgh
Virgin (who operate the direct train to MCR) can be really, really awkward about bikes, even when they are bagged.

FWIW, I would expect the Standard & the Times to be there, as well as a 100 or so cycle-bloggers, as I notice from MT inbound links & looking round the internet that this ride has turned into a big event in bike-blogger-land. Ironic that in…

And I promise, they will find someone who'll talk to them - don't get me wrong, it won't be me, I have no interest in speaking to the media, but they will find someone.

No need to be rude, John. Don't shoot the messenger, cos you don't like the message.

I mean, they are going to be there, whether any of us like it or not. You, or anyone else, can't stop them from filming the event - it's on the public roads.

They'll be there anyway, John, and they will find someone who will to talk to them (they always do) - whether you like it or not.

ITV London are going to do a news item about the ride (I didn't contact them, they contacted me, in case anyone is wondering). They would like to speak to a courier that knew Henry. I would also suggest that someone from LCEF should talk to t…

Finsbury Avenue Square Static Cycle Challenge

Mike, the question was asked as to whether Creative pays waiting time. The answer is yes, with some exceptions. If the poster (Creative Couriers) had said anything else, it would have been untrue. I don't really want to come on here and st…

Anyone going down with a camera that could take some pics for MT? I probably won't make it in time to be there for the off. I'll buy all your beer for the evening in return. Thanks!

Everyone is welcome, but don't expect a punctual start. The timing is dependent on what work people end up with & at what time. If half London's couriers end up in Chelsea at 7pm (which entirely plausible), then the start may be dela…

Sorry, Mike, what is my stance on it? Did I say I thought it was ok? On the other hand, what can I do that I haven't done already, apart from resign in protest? In which case, are you going to pay my rent & bills?
