Huge fan of whoosh cat. Using that.
I regard stw forum as being a bike-orientated version of Mumsnet (without the swearing)...
Bunch of Barbour wellied yummy mummies spending all the money that hubby earns in Costa whilst bleating about what a tough life they have.

BTW, what's the best carbon crankset for less than £300, anyone? 😮

Unfortunately Government Policy isn't swayed by STW, unlike Mumsnet 🙄

FTFYUnfortunately Government biscuit Policy isn't swayed by STW, unlike Mumsnet
Other Mums-based website cyclist threads are available:
Wow, I just had a little browse around the site... Its like the daily mail with added hormones
A whole section on feminism where people rant about being asked to bake a cake by their kids school as its sexist to assume the mother would be baking a cake. Rather than just using a bit of common sense and thinking they were asked to bring in a cake because they were the parent who picked the kid up from school that day. Had the father been there, they would more than likely have asked him 😕

Oooh!!! pavements with hairpin bends, cyclists are thieves, modern bikes are silent
I bet when they got into their cars to do the school run, they then went onto Mumsnet to complain about inconsiderate cyclists holding them up and they have a right to the road blah blah!
Unfortunately we seem to live in a society (and it seems to be getting worse) whereby people lack the ability to tolerate others, because they are used to getting their own way all the time.
I have a relative who is exactly like this, complains about cyclists on the road, then complains about them on the shared use path outside her expensive house. Always competing with the other mum's at the school gates. Husband earns a lot of money and then complains about how hard done by she is! Sad really 😕
netmums is very different from Mumsnet.

Not a bit of it - I hope you enjoyed being tee'd up!
Anyway.............. 🙄
I've never been asked to bake anything.
Bake us a cake Kelvin will you?
I've just read a couple of pages of that thread, and I cannot believe how reasoned and sensible the arguments back and forth are, they even managed the Road Tax subject politely.
You can tell it's not a cycle forum, on Road CC they would have hanged someone by the middle of page 1... well maybe not hanged, just beaten them up, with iron bars... a bit.
