"Weigh in! weigh in!"
Chatel, 25-29th June, IIRC, camping somewhere.... 🙂
Andy, whilst I remember I've got a nice new Garmin sat-nav to get us there and back in lieu of Gary's this year. 🙂
32 pounds my ar$e Pete!!! I thought Gary's scale went round the dial once already... 😉
I'm wondering about high rollers, but the lighter version (LUST) seems to be pooly rated and thin? Hmm, will have a think about it!
Hopefully my carbon DH bars'll be here soon, I've taken the shifer windows off (it all counts!), and got some new Pro2 hubs (on same rims - I love 5.1s!) which should be lighter....
I have got a 10mm bolt through and a 12mm maxle kit to fit, which will add a few grammes.... oh - i fitted a better, lighter headset too.
Doubt i'll notice any of it!

I've got a euro TomTom we can use too.....
4 foot wide country lanes in favour of motorways anyone???
Farmer to us as we spin through muck on farmers yard in deepest darkest Wales:
"You got that TomTom then......"

Just noticed the tags; that "trans wales" joke is two years old now and still makes me giggle! 😆
DrP I think the quote was "TomTom? Third one through this week" 😆
Oh and my bike will be identical to last year; except a 20mm shorter stem and maybe new rims to replace those crappy Syncros things if they dont survive next week in Spain

LOL!!
The mickey taking has started waaaaaaaaaay too early for my liking. I think I shall lace your beers with Picolax..... 😈
Andy, I know a good wheelbuilder if you need one.

That's quite something considering how much kit you seem to get through! 😉
I'd have thought you'd have money burning a hole in your pocket after selling those brakes to Anna that I had to fix on their first ride out. 😯
**Cough**shonky rubbish**cough**

Biggest problem I've found with BIG forks on non DH bikes is not the head angle but the weight, makes the bike pretty nose heavy and that really threw out the handling off drops and jumps for me. Not a massive issues thought.

The one thing PP can handle is moving a lot of weight around. 😉
("Put me back on my bike [burp]")
Very true. I've had to shove you out of the way many times. 😛
I think everyone should read this thread and realise they really shouldn't be giving me any lip today. I'm on form with the retorts, and it shows. I win. So there. 
Plus you are using words like "retort. It's all too much for me...... 🙂
