I occassionally look in the 'utility' section on bikeforums.net for longtail bike stuff...a recent thread has started about a old school bike trailer made by Cannondale - as someone mentions, you couldn't market that name here in the UK!

Hopefully [url= http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?554309-Replacement-hitch-for-Cannondale-Bugger ]THIS[/url] will get through the STW swear filter

Much more worrying is that CRC are calling trousers "pants". Its just not right.

A bum-bag is called a 'fanny-pack' in the States.

that's because a bum is called a fanny in the states. hence all the confusion in transatlantic relationships

don't get me started on @rse and a cross between a donkey and a horse now....

Did an aqua aerobics class in the US (Desperated for some exercise) and a fellow participant asked me the next day if i had a sore fanny!:-)
Told her to mind her own business.
