    Wotcha!

    Just got back from 2 weeks in India so I'm assuming you've all sorted out what the best tyres are and convinced TJ he should always wear a helmet whilst I was away, but what else has happened?

    I don't wanna feel like I missed out….. 8)

    Tj and ton had a good fight about bashing people over the head when the law lets you down. Ton won i think on points as tj got a roasting for being a bit limp. Some nutter tried to sell bearings to us by offending us. Same as ever. Good trip?

    But has since redeemed himself, by saying some quite sensible things at times.

    Oh & Fred got banned again

    Yeah I know: He emailed me. What did he do? Anything? I'm guessing it was a classic STW witch hunt, yes?

    It's like you never were away !!

    Fred's on the naughty step and TJ finally reached escape velocity – loads of people have got shiny new things, poorly maintained borders and dodgy fences.
    Niche bikes still look fugly and money has yet again proved to be no substitute for taste.
    Stuff has been broken, shops have been castigated, tall tales have been told and someone's had trouble with tubeless tyres/setting up a mech/adjusting a headset/trimming their hose and fettling their forks.

    Welcome back to nevernever land 😉

    Classic line, that's STW to a tee. 🙂

    What happened to TJ? Linky? 🙂

    What happened to TJ?

    Oh nothing much ! he fed five thousand people with a tin of sardines and a sliced white, turned some water into wine and solved all the problems of our agressive society in one go 😉

    But, he's not the messiah he's a very……….

    While you were away, your 'retro' rigid Kona post inspired me to resurrect my 1995 Principia. It's been used every-single-day since!!
    So cheers for that! 🙂

    Hora invited me on a dark side ride this week.

    Actually that does sound like some dodgy prison lingo. Eeeek.

    Think your hotmail account has a Trojan as I received an email from you address n typical Nigerian fraud lingo.

    Alternatively, most could see where it was heading, and the mods decided to just get shot of him.

    Or my alternative point of view……………..

    I find it irritating that some people are allowed to get away with so much more than Fred was – racist posting, alternative log ins to get around bans and so on.

    Ton has had numerous goes at winding me up and belittling me. So I really rather enjoyed ripping into him.

    ……I learnt to walk away with my head held high and not to respond to provocation.

    Except of course when you want the enjoyment of 'ripping into' someone 🙄

    I've noticed it as well.
