Re: If i had a penny...

Whenever I walk out to the garage to get the bike, I ALWAYS have to go back in to pick up the garmin that I've forgotten.....it's really bloody tiresome!

Re: Joining the fat bike club this week.

I saw this lucky fella tonight.....I had to stop him and quiz him on his trike.....it was all kinds of vaguely exciting! He's fitted an electric motor for his commute, making it capable of plenty of mph for his 21 mile commute, but he was under his own steam today.... http://i929.photobucket.com/alb...

Re: That'll keep the legal team happy....

So, do I have the only pair of the original Fu Man Chu bars out there?

I have them on my trek stache, and love em...I have a set of original 710mm Jones bars on my Salsa, and Iove those too.

Only one way to find out which ones are best.....FIGHT!

Re: Farewell Old Friend

I test rode one of those at sherwoodmpines pines in about 2011? It's what convinced me to get a 29er......I couldn't afford one at the time, but got a good deal on my spearfish about a year later.....cracking frame.

Re: MBA say take your rubbish home.

That's why I got kicked off dragons den...my idea was to make dog poor show bags out of luminous plastic...then, when all the lazy scrotes chuck em up the trees, they can charge up during the day, and provide free light during the night.

Re: Bargain Alert Thread

Chainreaction have got the black chilli protection version of the X-king for £23.49.... That's 56% off retail price. Bonkers cheap, and the best version by far. I usually pay about that for the pure grip version, which are very good, but flimsier on the sidewalls. Tubeless up easy, I with no leaking...

Re: I bought a hammock now I have questions

One night, late and exhausted, I pitched up in a wood somewhere near Kings Lynn....every time I sat in the hammock, it sagged about 6", and I couldn't work out what the hell was going on! After about the 3rd re-tightening, I noticed that the big, strong tree at the foot end was actually very de...
