Every time I ride something technical now I hear in my head Juan telling me how rubbish I am and how much better he is than me.

I think I have spent too much time on STW.

You just listen too much 🙂 You just need to learn to sort the wheat from the chaff, and people telling you they're better than you (without offering to help) are chaff.

There is no Juan. He is the Brad Pitt to your Edward Norton. Do you see anyone who looks like Meat Loaf anywhere near you?

I reckon he's just spotted the 2 scary tramps and thinks they might eat him

C+ at best juan, poor effort overall, are you still as slow as you were at uni?! 😀 (this is the same Juan who was a member of the great sumbc right?!)

I dunno if he really is better than me or not.. but that's what I hear in my head..

Btw I am sure lots of people think I spend too much time on STW. My employers, if they knew, would be of the same opinion.

I think that being followed everywhere by a hyper-critical imaginary Frenchman you met on the internet is actually odder than dreaming about an imaginary man you met on the internet wearing a tan suede jacket. 🙂

You claimed it wasn't sexual. If you're retreating from that position then I'll have a re-think. 😉

Your results at the 2006 BUSAs though do suggest you're pretty slow 🙂

I must admit I'd be quite disturbed if I started thinking about anyone from STW whilst not at the computer.

Well I never said I was fast njee, far from it I have always define myself as a average. However if IIRC the 2006 Busas were in shropsire, the only memories I have from this is the band and the pub :D.

How well did you do then njee...?

Didn't do it! Did Cwmcarn in 2008 and was 10th in XC Champs.

All ribbing aside, I'm surprised you didn't do better in the DH, you're clearly quite handy.

Well how to say that I have to admit two thing :
I was with the bike on the pic, plus weirdly enough I am crap at DH (I could pm you a funny tail about 2005 busas if you want)
And second, coming from nice there is one thing I am very bad at, it's riding in the mud :$. Unless you're being sarcastic...

No I wasn't being sarcastic. I remember reading about those Shropshire BUSAs, I was at Uni then, but the MTB club consisted of me and 3 guys who pretended to be downhillers, so we didn't go, remember thinking it looked pretty grim!

What was that then Juan, I can't remember?! Was it Scotland?

The banter was good wasn't it? Is your grasp of the English language still as bad as your choice in music?! 😀

Well to be fair the DH course didn't get any approval. To flat and too muddy for the DH boy with 8" rigs. XC course was like a XC course after a ST patrick in an irish pub (way less hours of sleep than fingers in the hand) climb too long and dh bits packed with jey-hey boy walking down :-|.

The only good memries where the pub, and the smile of the pretty girl who allowed me to get warm ion her van 😀 (no innuendo...)

Tim yes... Scotland... Banter was awesome. As was my choice of music...
How you dare criticise the little yellow spider song.

Hmmm, sounds like most BUSA events then, you don't tend to go because it'll be a good race!

njee, you ever get yourself over to Swinley?

Occasionally, I prefer the Surrey Hills, they don't require a 45 minute drive! I do enough racing over that way to know most of it, I can piece together a half reasonable ride usually!
