I agree it is good, I had a good ride with FRH from here today, and I hope he enjoyed it. I havent told him yet but i'm expecting him to show me round his local trails soon...

Err- hello Pete, remember me, the bloke with the pub down the road where we drank ALL their beer one night, the bloke who met you at the Beast...

Although TBH we did meet elsewhere first.

Hijack

FWIW, investigating goldfish with the laparoscope is a massive hit in school. I now have crabs! in my tropical tank. You should hear the kids scream when one hoves into view!

When you get chatting with other 'random' bikers, don't you want to you ask if they 'singletrackworld'? In fact, do you?

I assume every MTBer is on STW and when an MTB course tutor asked 'Whats Singletrackworld?' a couple of years ago I was stunned, and couldn't even detect any irony...

Met loads who I'm now good friends with and met many on here in stealth mode who I have no idea who they were and they had no idea who I was. Not deliberate of course just the topic never got around to forum names.

I first met some people off STW 10 years ago. Not met one I didn't like yet.

I love meeting people off here and have made some good friends as a result.

Saturday's ride was a particular highlight

Jimmy
I felt like that, but you soon realise that in the grand scheme of things the STW is a very small one.
Though the introduction many years ago of wearing red carnations has helped imensely.

Yes Simon, you're much better than merely 'decent' 😀

In the pic above, just after that was taken we started talking about who we'd met and I pointed out that Hora reminded me very much of SFB: a complete cock on the forum, but actually quite a nice guy in person 😉

Hora seemed somewhat distressed and flattered at the same time. I'm not sure which bit had which effect !

I didn't actually realise that was Hora as he was nothing like I was expecting. He surprised me in a good way.

What never ceases to amaze me is that the most vocal/aggressive/argumentative (delete as appropriate) people on here can be so nice 😯

Of course I would not go so far as to name names [s]but genuinely hope that I might be included in this observation[/s]

Who you calling Argumentative? 😉

Met many people from here now, and the one thing that never ceases to amaze me is just how small a world it is... For instance, got chatting to Bananaworld off here at the last mass Swinley meet... Wasn't sure but something about his face looked vaguely like I recognised him from a dim and distant past... Sure enough, he was in the year below me at school!
