    Look it up, I really can’t be arsed to explain it all over again.

    It’s an ironic take on the “from zero to hero” saying where because of my uncanny ability to fail in almost every situation my wife says that I’m always Count[/b]ing from Hero to Zero.

    Used to be nicknamed Stavros when I had a moustache but that had been taken. So I chose the place where Arthur Dent is meant to be killed.

    I had a blur when I first logged on here. The bike only lasted about three months, so for years it’s meant nothing.

    I did change after the hack to Barry_Bethel, but then it reverted back to this.

    I like climbing (chalk) and biking (trees) and decided to use a cunning play on words to come up with my username. I realise it makes no sense but it’s mine.

    *Sigh*
    I’ve explained it on two or three threads exactly the same as this one. Bored now, but for those who insist, try looking up William Gibson/Neuromancer/Count Zero/Monalisa Overdrive.

    From the conversations relating to the devastating effect a weekends road racing, energy products and some booze has had on my digestive system. To be fair, once I’ve taken a viper boost bar there can be trouble for days.

    I have absolutely no idea where the inspiration came from…. especially as I prefer steeper angles.

    “Flying
    And you know I’m not coming down
    You’re trying
    But you know you must soon go down
    All my colours
    Turn to clouds
    All my colours
    Turn to cloud

    What d’you say
    When your heart’s in pieces
    How to play
    Those cards in sequence
    That box you gave me
    Burned nicely
    That box you gave me
    Burned nicely

    Flying down
    Flying down

    All my colours
    Turn to clouds
    All my colours
    Turn to cloud

    Hey I’m flowing
    Hey I’m flowing
    That box you gave me
    Burned nicely
    That box you gave me
    Burned nicely
    Hey I’ve flown away
    Hey I’ve flown away
    All my colours”

    Anyone else know it/love it…?

    My first sporting love before I got into biking was basketball and my favourite team, the Orlando Magic, used to play home games at the Orlando Arena, which was usually shortened to the ‘O-rena’…

    …and 45 comes from the number one of my favourite Magic players (Charles ‘Bo’ Outlaw) wore…
