Not bike related but anyway.
Due to gym lockdowns and such I dropped some money on a new powercage and bench do I could beat the government.
Really proud of myself for putting the cage together in a couple hours flat. If you know me that's the equivalent of walking on water.
Got set for my first mighty workout with a new bar and grabbed a plate to stick on it.
Well, yeah, that's what you get for stocking up on Kmart plates, fucken hole was too small for the bar. Turns out Kmart have 20kg plates that only fit shitty Kmart bars. That will teach me to go cheap on plates.
But it does have a happy ending, I gave @Dales Cannon a quick pm as he is about the only fella I trust on here for true knowledge and asked him if he had any idea if what to do.
Was surprised when he told me all I needed was a damn good reaming. I thought "fuck me, he is having a bad day" but then he explained that I needed to go to an engineering shop and get the hole reamed out. Phew. Pick the plates up on Friday. Saved from being a total fuckwit, would of cost 500 or more to replace the weight plates
