Sharki
You're welcome at mine.
No questions asked.
Just arrrive!
SB
But you're in France!
😉
I'm heading down that way tomorrow. Will keep an eye out
Getting a bit miffed at this guys!
We're looking for a mate who's gone missing.... Whatever his issues I dont really care, if he wants my help or opinions once we've found him thats fine, if he doesnt ask ill keep them to myself. Im sure he knows what he's done.
Secondly why are the news kicking off at the Police about this Dog search? The police did all they could and have to exhaust all options before putting someone down as missing. Whereas the dog can be reported immediately because it just buggered off and didnt have any other agenda!
If they released the report straight away and we found him 2hours later out on his bike they'd have looked rather silly!! (And the news would be full of missing people who'd actually just popped to the shops!)
They have also checked any transactions, they were doing that when I got there on sunday. They've dealt with it pretty well. I'd just like to know he was 100% ok!
Charlie well put
Thank you
Personally I would like to see the daft bugger on my doorstep and he would be welcomed in with open arms
Sharki there is a room here for you if you need it till you get yerself sorted .
No strings attached
the police also took us with them to help search which helped me feel not so helpless(I used the word help a lot there). They could have asked us to move on and stay out the way.
##edit## staying at saladdodgers mmmmm homemade sausages and homemade booze . (just incase Shanes reading this)
I hope Sharki is just living the dream in the woods & doesn't bother to comeback to this bollox. That said I hope he is well & is just in hiding.
Get in touch with your mates dude, if you need anything they can't give you then get in touch, I'll do my best, if its only money then I can do Western union through one of your friends if you don't want to be found.
Come back to your family & feel the love...
Why did he loose the books?
Shane, my porch is falling down. If you don't come back soon the missis is going to make me do it when I'm home on leave, so you'd better hurry up. Oh, and I promise the dog won't get you up at 3am, make you take her to the back door in your shreddies then stand there and look at you like you're a **** before heading back to bed. Again. 😆
Seriously, just let us know you're safe mate.
charlierevell, saladdodger +1
Nice chap and great company on the Quantocks. Hope you are safe and sound and look forward to hearing about your mad adventures and seeing some great photos!
Sharki me Old Mate, tiz a while since we last had "reckless blast on the 'Tox"... get in touch mate and we'll get the other 'Old Farts' out for your "reunion" ride..
We don't judge.. 8) Just get out and ride... Sorry, stole that from somewhere else !!
If you don't care then why post?
Heh heh! A bit like driving out to Tescos so you can tell the cashier you don't want to buy anything. Heh heh. What a douche!
Well ro i have never met the fella but i care.
Oh and now i know who the village idiot is around here, what a tool.
ro
I'l tell you who he is ..... Shane , a friend of mine ! If you bothered to read this thread you would have known he is a well liked fellow.
I'm in Somerset for a few days. Heading up the Q's for a walk shortly and will keep a look out.
Think you're on you're own with that one, ro
Ro, maybe [u]you'd[/u] care to dissapear, preferably for good and ASAP. Bye Bye!
Ro, you don't know Sharki so just STFU and stop posting in this thread. There are alot of people on here who know and care for him and you are offending us. Sod off.
How many of you actually know this guy?
Plenty of us, because Shane went out of his way to show loads of forum members some quality riding. What have you contributed besides bile?
Found some easy self-help reading material for ro.....

Ro
Sharki is a friend of mine to if you had any decency you would just go away
Perhaps if you dissapeared someone might care about you, I guess you would like to think
as my old Pa would say if you have nothing worthwhile to say, say nothing PLEASE
I've never met Sharki, don't know him but it seems many on here have, and he seems to be a popular member of the STW 'Community'. Whilst I'm not obliged to expend any emotion on him, I still hope that he's ok, like I would with any Human Being.
I can kind of understand what ro is saying, but I don't really think it's appropriate on here. Your comments are obviously upsetting people, and this is neither the time nor the place to be making a point. Why are you trying to make such a point anyway? What do you hope to gain? Is there perhaps not a more sensitive and considerate way you could do so?
Have a heart, eh?
ro, you are on to a loser mate. Can you stop posting on this thread. its not the place for your trolling.
Sharki is a good friend to many of us on here, and your posts are not needed.
Ro is attention seeking! S/he's worried that if s/he disappeared no-one would notice/care. Surprise - someone else here who actually knows Sharki! He is entertaining, generous, engaging, a skilful biker and has gone out of his way on several occasions to play very gracious host/guide to me and others on the Qs. Like nearly everyone else, I don't give a sh*t what he's done or hasn't done and hope he turns up safe and well soon.
Anna - funny you should say that. Ro has actually been here before, and I got a ban for 'tag abuse' on a thread where s/he was being equally mouthy. Nobody missed him/her when they'd gone, nobody celebrated when s/he came back and nobody will notice when s/he goes again.
Ro - Funny that an online mountain biking community misses one of its most generous members and wants to see them back safe & sound. If you're not interested then don't read the thread, it's hardly impacting your life is it? And don't let the door hit you on the way out (again).
RO, can we discuss this via email, as you suggested?
Guys just report this IDIOT to the mods we can do without her/him
Reported.
Go bunnyhop! 🙂
See you Ro. Or not. Don't really care either way.
My first posting on this thread, but felt compelled by Ro's comments. For the record I don't know Sharki, but have enjoyed his posts on here, and have also benefitted from some of his tips on riding in the Quantocks, he's obviously greatly liked by those who do know him, and I hope he's safe and sound.
Ro - What exactly is your problem? You didn't have to read this thread, let alone waste your precious time responding to it, if you don't feel it's worthwhile. The fact is, a lot of folk on here do think it's worthwhile, and you should respect that.
You are doing the wrong thing in the wrong way for all the right reasons.
I think it's safe to say, that you are doing the wrong thing, in the wrong way for all the wrong reasons. I'd get your coat, if I were you...
Glad to see ro's comments have been removed, well done mods 🙂
thanks mods goodon ya
Been on the English Riviera all weekend , hoped this would have had a happy ending by now .Shane hope all's well with you buddy .I couldn't have asked for a better bloke to help me back to riding after my back problems last year .Even if you totally ignored my pleas to be gentle with me !!!!Hoping this gets sorted in a happy way before i clear off for the summer !Could be living it that hollow tree in Holford Combe i suppose .He is partial to posing in there !Seriously Shane so many folks rooting for you be safe PLEASE !
sharki's probably sitting down to a roasted freshly trapped fieldmouse as we type....
Don't know you mate but come back you daft b*gger!
Sharki, if you're mad enough to be in Ireland and need anything just let me know.
Had an awesome day on the Qunatocks yesterday. Sharki should have been with us but we ripped it up and down all day as he would have done. Give us a bell if you fancy a few days in Bristol.
Sharki and I were a pair for both of our first 24 event SITS '07 as Butch Chickadee and the Come-Dance Kid. He's a sensitive and gentle guy who does a lot of soul searching beneath the 'smiley' 'whacky' exterior. I just hope he's having an extended period of soul searching and comes back refreshed.
Sharki, as we've said before in person, there's a place to lay your head and a warm welcome in the Highlands should you need/want it. Jo, Matt and the kids xxx
I don't know this guy but based on the outpouring of good wishes here that is my loss.
Good luck man where ever you are and I hope you come back safe and sound to all your mates.
MODs, please can you just ban ro, he adds nothing but cr@p on here!
I think we've met, so I'd like to add my voice to the well-wishers. It was good to see the number of "Missing" notices on the Qs at the weekend.
(We were the grey-haired couple of walkers in the way of all you lycra louts 😕 )
Still no sign? 🙁
really hope he decides to let people know he is ok
I was driving across dartmoor today and slowing at anyone who was walking along with a back pack on hoping to see the "young rascal"
Alas in vain
