It's stabilized by the fore and aft spokes and the upper spokes. It's
an arch. Its a span that the rim can manage.

Did anyone see last night's 'Drivers in the Dock' on ITV?
Sat, 14 Nov 2009 00:05:53 -0800 (PST)
The theme was 'Do cyclists in the UK need better protection from
motorists?' A very good question. As usual though the programme seemed
a little biased against cyclists, with the one taxi driver being
notably the worst. In one example a car rammed a cyclists from behind

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 22:29:51 -0000
It's a question that's always bugged me. Come on, who hasn't wondered
that at least once? (Think the predictable dull stupid car-hating URC
bores: "Hey, it would be really clever and original if I replied with

Proof that Chapman is a MURDERER
Fri, 13 Nov 2009 21:47:10 -0000
This proves beyond doubt that Chapman is MURDERING SCUM.
http://tinyurl.com/guychapman
See, NO-ONE CAN POSSIBLY DENY IT. The truth is OUT. It's time for even
