Just give me the wafers. March 13, 2015. Oh alright, I’ll start talking again…. 8212; albatros @ 12:46 pm. So what does this mean for all you out there? Actually, I didn’t buy. To me, having a problem that ought to be easy to solve and isn’t yet solved is anathema. But looking round the web showed that either those who solve such problems keep very quiet about them, or else such problems just don’t seem to get solved. On the subject of problems that ought.

Disaster | Just give me the wafers
https://albatros.wordpress.com/2008/05/30/disaster
Just give me the wafers. May 30, 2008. Filed under: Pedersen bicycles. 8212; albatros @ 9:18 am. I found that the left hand saddle post had snapped just above a short connecting piece that joined it to the right hand tube. Although I was near enough to home to walk back, pushing the bike, I was seized with the spirit of the old journey. Asking myself “what would I have done if this had happened to me in Scandinavia? The cost of the tube, they told me, had been 100. I didn’t ask what the labour ...After t...

The return of the Stormy Petrel | Just give me the wafers
https://albatros.wordpress.com/2012/06/22/the-return-of-the-stormy-petrel-22
Just give me the wafers. June 22, 2012. The return of the Stormy Petrel. Filed under: Pedersen bicycles. 8212; Tags: Pedersen bicycle. 8212; albatros @ 3:05 pm. When I said “I’m just going out for a short ride, I may be some time”, I didn’t realise it would be almost four years. Well, I’m back. The other thing I swore a solemn vow to do was to get a pair of 700c rims with hub brakes, dynamo and 8-speed gears. But that may take some time. Watch this space…. 2 Comments ».

New wheels for old | Just give me the wafers
https://albatros.wordpress.com/2008/04/27/new-wheels-for-old
Just give me the wafers. April 27, 2008. New wheels for old. Filed under: Pedersen bicycles. 8212; albatros @ 5:23 pm. After some wandering around the web, I managed to get an idea of what rims and tyres might work, and ended up getting 37-622 700x35C rims, 28×1 5/8″ x 1 3/8″ tyres, and 25/32-622/630 tubes. The tubes and tyres fitted the rims happily, the wheels then went comfortably into the frame, and the brake blocks only needed fractional adjustments to work. Leave a Comment ».

The Biopace Experiment | Just give me the wafers
https://albatros.wordpress.com/2008/06/09/the-biopace-experiment
Just give me the wafers. June 9, 2008. Filed under: Pedersen bicycles. 8212; Tags: Add new tag. 8212; albatros @ 8:04 am. Success, I thought, and decided the aching legs was simply due to the higher gears on both middle and upper chainwheel. I then set about searching the web to see what different size chainwheels I could find on ebay. And that was when I discovered that, not only were Shimano Biopace chainwheels almost obsolete, but almost universally despised by posters on the cycling forums. Build a w...

There’s something sloppy about a jalopy,. The way that it clunks and it creaks. It’s most anti-social, the way so much smoke’ll. Blow from its pipe and it reeks. It will choke all the folk who’ll. Breathe in the air as they stand there and stare open mouthed. They become most vocal, steam up their bi-focals. Occasional...

Twas the night before, erm, after. oh, never mind. Besides being called Rodney, Rodney is no different to any other frozen garden pea. He is round and green and somewhat cold. Fairly standard for a pea. I don't know, maybe he is. In short, I've been defrosting my fridge. So, what of Christmas Eve on Not 4'33". So here ...

OPC as a boy. So, I shall just have to make something up. My father was a mechanic, just like his mother and her mother before her. His father was disappointed. Why couldn’t he have chosen a more masculine career? Was there something wrong with him? But my father could not be swayed, the big girl’s blouse. To which we ...
