[Closed] Go on then, take the pee, it's open season on ME!

Ouch that is not fun!

We don't want your play for sympathy here. Go on, hop it.

Yeh, take a break

Come on, I need original pee taking and time honoured STW pics posting (i'm thinking of a certain one here)..... Must try harder!

2 Days riding in the Qs, then I come home and break my ankle on a kerb in Bristol

kerbs offer more of a technical challenge than the Quantocks.

i don't see any shame there at all.

I'm not sure laying down shouting 'spank me! spank me!' is going to get the best out of people.

Play hard to get.

I need original pee taking and time honoured STW pics posting (i'm thinking of a certain one here)

You thinking of posting that jacket again ????!!!!

Brilliant ! 😀

Sorry about the ankle btw......it's gotta be very painful 😐

Did you have a nice trip?

Wwaswas - True, true....

Was this riding off a kerb or simply walking off it?

What tyres for Qunatocks?

What flat (non spd) shoes for Bristol?

EDIT: Sorry Pete, I'm not very good at being mean (or funny).

[i]Wwaswas - True, true.... [/i]

You'd kick yourself.

If you could without falling over 😉

DD - Hopping around in one SPD shoe trying to put the other on on to go out riding (Bike in car, I work away)

Oh, nice one. To think I may have been a stone's throw away and missed it. Must have been ****in sore though. 😳

😀

Where is it where is it....

...Here it is!

Sorry but it has to be done I'm afraid. Laughing at me cos of my seatpost breaking. That'll teach you....

bad luck OP.

kerbs offer more of a technical challenge than the Quantocks.

That's the pic I was after! Thanks Elfin, you fat old lardy-ass, you!

...Here it is!

So that's the pic he meant........I thought when he said he needed the piss taken, he was going to post that jacket again 🙁

DD, yes and yes. Not too painful now but I can't walk on it for another couple of weeks yet. It's a minor fracture apparently. Got me one of those removelable walking braces, but I can't put any weight on it yet

Thanks Elfin, you fat old lardy-ass, you!

Who you calling 'lardy-arse', you Butter Bottom?

At least I can ride my bike, go for a walk, play footie, have a little dance around when I get excited about something....

[i]But Elfin, why are you being so cruel??![/i] I hear you cry.

Well, you've got to be cruel to be kind; you've got to be cruel to be kind.

Ernie, this jacket? What's the fascination?

Yeah what was all the fuss about with that jacket? I never got that either... 😕

At least I can ride my bike

ppppffpghghhthhhshhrhrtuuuuuttttttpppphhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!

Drink/Monitor interface!!

THAT'S DEBATEABLE!

Tell me again why you threw it in a ditch????? 🙄 😛

Was that mean and heartless?

I'm like that you know. Cruel. Nasty. Selfish.

Dont know about ankles, but when I broke my leg I could ride a bike (gently) after about 4 weeks, couldnt walk on it properly though.
Hope it heels quickly.

I would take the pish but having once broken my own ankle into several pieces, managing to fall off my bike whilst riding round a mini roundabout 😳 I'm not really in a position to...

did it make you yelp btw ?

Kev

Well surprisingly it worked better after I did! 😯

did it make you yelp btw ?

There may have been some swearing, as I remember, yes.....

Well surprisingly it worked better after I did!

Did that wheel true up OK?

Yep. All fine now.

Blimey! That's bad news Pete. 🙁

Take it easy and hope you mend soon. 🙂

Oh yeah; seeing as how you can't ride yer bikes any more, can I have them please?

Thanks CG 🙂

Elfin, no they're all to big for you. And the brakes are too good....

S'ok I can sell them/swap them and get stuff that fits me, innit? 🙂

Jeez Elf ... you wanna do more RLJ'ing? Outsprint the Officer? New game?

But Elfin, why are you being so cruel??! I hear you cry.

Well, you've got to be cruel to be kind; you've got to be cruel to be kind.

Elfin, I completely agree with you. In fact, I actually make it a policy to agree with you all the time....

Need a faster bike, innit?

SS no good for outrunning Babylon. 32/16t NOT FTW. 😐

Of course! Yes! You are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RIGHT!

Dam dem Babylon!

Yeah what was all the fuss about with that jacket? I never got that either...

It was on the old pre-hacked forum, if you can't remember it, then it was probably not during one of those few periods when you weren't banned. I can't believe that PP doesn't remember though 😉

I do remember something Ernie, but I can't remember anything other than pee-taking, nothing specific. Was it that long ago? It's a good jacket, always been 100% waterproof, and it's never been as bright as it looked. 🙂

It was a PSA on here, lots of people bought one at the time. Berghaus Paclite Goretex for £40 = Not to be sniffed at. 🙂

This really sucks... I feel for you.

Not sure why you want a golden shower though 😕

🙂 wasnt it a womans jacket? I seem to remember pastel blue... 😀

Ohhhh, the HOWIES one! No, not a womens one, but light blue and grey yes. I still have it. It's seen some use has that. Good bit of kit. Again, PSA on here IIRC. I know a couple of others with the same jacket, both blokes.....

In fact, go look at my profile picture.... 🙂

Yep that's it. There was nothing inherently wrong with it, it's just that you were exceptionally enthusiastic about it 'cause it was a bargain, which provided a cue for everyone to take the p*ss 😀

I get used to it... 🙂

Better than my jacket after a quantocks trip 😉 :

Oops. That'll teach me for chasing sharki 😐

Heal soon PP.

Cheers ADH 🙂

WTF happened there??? 😯

Healing vibes to you, ya clanger 😉

😯

Looks like animal fur in the last pic!

Cheers Sharki, thanks again for a great weekend! 🙂

So, if your leg's duff....

Do you fancy servicing some forks if I get 'em? 8)

I'll lend you my left leg. Or pay you. Whichever you'd prefer...

Seems that it's always when I do the simple things, I done a thousand times before, I don't really pay attention and cop it.

Those curbs are sneaky bastards as well.

Any good pics ❓

Yeak. curbs. BASTIDS!

This is the only pic you're getting:

Bullheart, yeah, I can do, but not this weekend.....No until I can put weight on my leg anyway!

So do they not do old skool plaster casts any more then or what?

Don't come running to us for sympathy...
Oh

looks a bit 'vader' that leg cast.

i like it.

Healing vibes hopalong!

Don't come running to us for sympathy...
Oh

😆

Well I thought it was funny, anyway...

Cheers for the kind comments chaps.... 🙂
I've had enough of sitting around so we've been out all day here and there, I'm getting quite handy with the crutches now my shoulders are used to it. I'm going to keep my weight off it as long as I possibly can to give it the best chance to heal but I need to be able to walk on it by 28th May and ride by 22nd June.....

As no one else has sent you the usual healing vibe why dont you just MTFU and put on a support bandage and get out for a ride 😆
get used to the look of the boot as thats what you will have to wear all the time now you have a weak ankle-at least thats what happened to me when I snapped my ligaments. Joking aside hope it heals well for you and quickly, nothing worse than not being able to get out and ride especially whilst the weather is still being kind to us all....
