bike lock :- (

It's not a circular lock - it's pins and a big bolt on a length of wire. It's a 'centreparcs' brand, and I'd hope it was an easy pick as they give these things away when you hire a bike for Â£1. Since centreparcs like to keep costs low and profits high, this can't be a particularly good quality bike lock!

(centreparcs is a holiday resort btw, not a locksmithing operation for you USA ppl!)

I lost my keys a few days ago, so I guess it's a good starter lock - if I muck it up, no problems. I can take a photo if you like, but it's not especially interesting...

hehe, got tired picking it with my small diamond so I got out the rake

My heart skipped a beat when I heard the click - I thought I'd snapped my tension wrench!

I can do it in a second now I know how much tension to put in - I can't believe how easy it was once I got it right! :shock:

It was only because no-one was quick enough between post and pick-sucess that I had to reply to myself :roll:

ummm... first sign of madness is talking to yourself, second sign is having hairs in the palm of your hand, and the third is looking for them...

personaly I don't know what they're talking about... I never found a single hair on my hand when I looked :wink:

not even sure that gorillas have hairs on the palms of their hands... Good to see we're staying on topic ;- )

Hairy palms anyone? lol somtimes that can get entangled in the pick while your working on the lock. Better watch out for that. :wink:

Palms will never sport hair, nor will they scar.

That is the dumbest off-topic I ever heard.

My suprise was because typicaly the saying is if you have hairy palms, you have become a little too curious about your body, if you get what im saying.
