Hi, been lurking for a while and thought I should (politely) introduce myself before I start posting random questions and nonsense on here!
So, about to hit 30 and three kids have meant that I've lost anything that resembles fitness! So I'm trying to get back into biking.
Currently got a Trek 1.2 for the road and a few months ago treated myself to a Voodoo Bizango to get back in to mountain biking after a 12 year hiatus (sold my last one ('99 Trek 4500) to buy interrail ticket!)
I'm in the North Yorks / East Yorks border so lovely Wolds roads and not too far up to Dalby for the MTB.

That's my first ramble over with (I have a habit of rambling and not knowing when to stop writing!)
Cheers

Right...
Love / meh / not for me but if you want to then go for it / android all the way / opposite of my religion opinion / just sugar disguised as health (but tastes good)) / only when I can't be bothered to shave for a bit / love fire, hate the smell of smoke on clothes / in / there for a reason.

Hope I didn't miss any or that's all going to get a bit two ronnies! 🙂

I wouldn't fancy meeting one in the sea, but I do enjoy a nice bit of calamari

Congratulations, you can stay. For now. Though the Cephalopods may clinch it. Mind that chair, I think Hora might have peed on it.

The Mrs Fry suspicion will follow him forever, though.

EDIT: DAMMIT!

No one knows who Fred is.

.....or everyone does.

Depends who you listen to round here.

It's a puzzle within a mystery wrapped up in an enigma kinda thing.
