DS, sort yourself out quickly fella. I'll be in touch once my own situation improves (things are looking up BTW).

Ignore the cocks on here.

It doesn't take long for me to be reminded why I hardly ever use this forum any more.

I didn't post a pic of that incident even though I am extremely good looking.

such fitting modesty:

whilst that might be appropriate in the interests of good taste it would not address the problem of forumites poking fun at people for almost any reason, though I'm given to wonder if the OP isn't feigning offence to guilt trip his detractors...

Blimy derek - that's pretty nasty. Funny you should post this 'cos I changed some grips a wee while back and the ends are still open on that bike cos I don't have any bar plugs which fit.

I'm gonna make sure I get some now after seeing your post.

BTW - chicks dig scars n bruises 😉

I think it's what's known in the trade as a 'minge tickler'.

Sorry to the OP but some of those comments made me laugh. I had a similar situation about 10 years ago, 1 night in hospital with lots of blood in my wee. Got woken at 3 in the morning by a CRASH team surrounding my bed. A student nurse couldnt find any blood pressure and hit the emergency button. I was fine she just hadn't screwed something down on the blood pressure machine. Poor girl got loads of stick for that.

Complete female satisfaction? What in the name of almighty arse gravy is that about then? I'm from Barnsley, and this sort of talk will not be tolerated!

I didn't post a pic of that incident even though I am extremely good looking.

IME it shows complete lack of thought and gets "get that scratchy thing shaved off before you come anywhere near me with it".

nasty injury.....!

ignore the comments or take them as they are meant; in jest.

hope you clear up soon....

i fell onto my bars once. everything was fine for three days and i even went 1000m up an alp without probs. went out on the fourth day, again up an alp. things were ok on the way up but as soon as i started going down the shakes and bouncing nearly did me in. i was almost in tears. ended up cruising down on fireroads for almost an hour.

See dereck? This is what happens to everybody that posts pictures of themselves on here. Dont let it wind you up - if they smell weakness, they'll never let up. Bloody hyenas, that's all they are.

One of the best things about riding with folk is the piss ripping that occurs. Pretty much everyone I know reckons that the banter is the highlight of any ride, and likewise most forums.

Fact is it is a big belly, and it is a nasty injury. No one was actually intending any offence, as is reflected by the apologies, and to be honest the reaction says more about you, Derek than it does about the p-rippers. I very much doubt that anyone on here is anything other than supportive of your efforts to get fit, sympathetic regarding your injury, and grateful for the warning.

You can choose to be offended, or choose to believe that having the micky taken is the equivalent of an arm round the shoulder and a bit of support from people who don't do huggy kissy.

You'll find your life is much more pleasant if you choose the latter.

You are welcome any time on a ride with me, but lighten up fella. (You can choose how to interprete that too!).

One of my first ever posts on here was a picture of my new bike - my absolute pride and joy. It was greeted with loads of "Fugly half clean bike", and "Look at the f00k1n state of your garden" type comments.

I was properly wound up about it for about half a day, until I started to understand the nature of the beast which is this forum. Is it right? Is it acceptable? Doesn't matter - it is what it is 😀

And yes, you were lucky - a kid at my local skate park landed on his bar ends and managed to rupture his spleen amongst other things - nearly died according to the paramedics. We had the dubious honour of first aiding him til they arrived and we also thought he was on his way out. Never thought to check for bar end plugs...

I heard of something similar recently - guy fell, landed on end of bars and they stuck in his leg about 3 inches - had to go to hospital to get it sorted.

Another one - fell off on tarmac and was missing a nipple when he got up!!! Still can't get my head round that one... 😕

hope you get well soon derek and get back on your bike. Preventing apple coring may seem obvious to some, but it's well worth a reminder to others.

On the other hand don't be too sensitive and take a tittylip about the comments.Remember it's the internet and there's a lot of us fatties on here- however I don't think a seperate fatty forum would be the answer.

[b]derek([i]the size of a[/i])starship[/b], lighten up man! 😯

You fell on your bars, it hurt

You got bruised

You posted a picture on a [b]public[/b] forum 😳

People commented on it

Life's tough, no-one died, no-one dislikes you. We're all mates together, taking the piss is a very British pastime. Take it how you will.

If you don't like it just show pics like that to people who will tell you what you want to hear...

The first thing my Mrs said was 'that's a big belly', perhaps because it's the truth! She didn't even notice the bruising..

Great thread, it's put a smile on my face. 😀

Just checked my fleet and noticed my daughter’s bike has open grips and no bar end plugs. I am off to stick some on now before I take the kids to Glentress next week! Hope you get better soon Derek, Thanks for the tip!

For someone who claims to abhor violence SFB, one doesn't have to scratch very deep below the surface to find a cruel and callous streak.

had it not occurred to you that my abhorence is based on first hand experience of its ill effects ? I do indeed have a foul temper and a vicious streak, though I think now they are under full control but perhaps a little malice is still in evidence...

I wasn't commenting on your abhorrence of violence or the reasons for it. I was simply commenting on the growing evidence of a cruel and callous streak. Which I find surprising.

bigyinn ..... [i]nah[/i] ...... I need to be banned or get bored, before I STF 😀
