Finally wore my pedals out

I noticed this morning that one of my Time ATAC pedals was a bit wonky
the bearings have collapsed in the right hand pedal, I have replaced some
of the ball bearings from my "big box of bits" and re-packed them
for now but will need new pedals, I estimate they have covered about 50,000
miles in the last five years so I think they have done well, I will be
replacing them
with some new ATACs.

I had the bearings go in one of mine, LBS got me a complete
replacement race for, IIRC, about a tenner. Not /quite/ good as
new, but I'd be hard pushed to tell you which one it was now (3
pairs running on different bikes)

I deal with the distributor, I will see what the spares situation is,
actually I rode 23km just now and it feels fine.
