[#1532715]

A reject from BikeRadar (I'm rather partial to the odd...ahem...pi55 take and got in trouble for talking about cars...) with a 2007 Stumpy HT which has just had a pretty massive overhaul so it's now a 22ish lbs goat of a bike. Ride a few times a week, run a lot, surf a lot, did an offroad tri last year (my only race involving an MTB to date!) and live in sunny Cornwall.
Hoping not to upset anyone on this forum... I get the feeling it's a bit more "grown up?"

The mods have gone a bit mental on BR - locking threads, banning everyone and generally ruining the website. A shame.

Anyway that's another website! Lush weather today - ride planned for 11ish. Just an hour's blat then back to work.

wwas - LOL!

Simon - generally good but covered in a daily layer of pollen or ash... ๐Ÿ˜‰

Endless arguments and trolling? Sounds ideal.

Surf Mat (was surfer matt?),

I left there ages ago, Nick is a tool, never got banned or anything but his general demeanour was poor, sonic was cool though. Actually not so different here!!! At least you generally get a better class of idiot.

Also have any opinion on this?

After reading the posts through, you were banned for being a prat.

Well Matt is a prat and will soon tell you about his cars, job, fitness and no doubt threaten to kick the crap out of everyone. If you want a laugh check him out on MSW.

Yeah, you'd think if you were going to brag about a car you'd actually have a good one.

So Pigface (I know who you are BTW), you are rather overweight, have a diesel Focus and a low rent motorbike. No wonder you stalk people.

And Bikeface - not been on here for seven months (and even then you were ignored) then suddenly you perk up - what a contribution you are to this forum huh?

Some decent folk here it seems but there will always be the weirdos with issues stalking anyone they feel upsets them. When you are one of life's failures, that's a lot of people.

Carry on ladies.

Did a quick blast on my bike earlier - had my rear wheel fitted yesterday (Hope hoop - Pro 2/xc717) after many many upgrades in the last week - bike is going REALLY well. Just about spot on (for me) now - really pleased with it.

What's wrong with it? It means you have to hate anyone that bothers to keep fit it would seem.

You got banned, for that ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

I thought they only banned irritating 14 year olds after many warnings.

Don't go there with the fat thing, it'll get the lefties going.

That's why people get so damn angry - I find ammo and chuck it back - heh heh heh heh heeeee!

Jon - indeed. whyamihere has apparently "warned" me before. Seems the mods are allowed to constantly swear on a forum read by many kids, but dare to suggest the person with an old Mondeo diesel,crapped out clio/old 206 that's slagging your 335d (hee hee) non stop might be a wee bit green eyed seems to get you banned. **** em I say.

How are you BTW? Just done my Stumpy right up and it's now sweeeeeeet!

Pigface - your crappy one. It's so forgettable that I've forgotten what it is. Some lame "scrambler" type effort I think for those that can't get up hills under their own steam. Or some mid range thing that pretends it's a superbike (like a Fazer or similar). I don't do motorbikes as I believe I'm more useful to my wife and boy alive than dead.

Mid range like your BMW is?

You're thinking of the 5 series. The 3 series are entry level models.
