Surf mat:

A: I never said that an x19 or 944,or my 4x4 was "classy" or in any way not vulgar, please refrain from putting words in my mouth.

B:Vaguely competent,if somewhat staccato stalking

C:If you really feel emotionally and socially insecure enough that you have to defend BMW ownership, then that's not really my problem is it?

🙂

habitual destroyer of watches;
Protreks are crap-broke the left hand side 'screwed' on section twice and the sensor cover once.
Swatch last a few months, cheap Casio's are ok but fail on the straps.
Longest lasting watch I've ever had (and still have) is an MWC G10 infantry military watch. Can be had from £50 ish, sapphire glass, battery hatch, expandable nylon webbing strap that can be worn on the outside of winter riding jackets.

As someone who has had stacks of BMW's, I kind of agree with point C. It's just a car..

Just playing you at your own game Jah.

You "stalk" me, I do the same.

You try and constantly put me down, I hit back.

Keep trying though - I'm flattered you seem to pay me so much attention our resident central London dwelling MTBer.

Stalk you in what way? , that's really funny, I know or care nothing about you apart from the fact that you seem defensive about owning beemers, other than that one thing, I have no interest in you whatsoever.

I'd love a history of when "I've tried to put you down" as I really don't have any recollection of that at all:)

I don't like wearing a watch but when I sometimes use my polar heart rate monitor I fasten the watch to the bars. Use a bit of foam pipe lagging and it bulks up to the size of your wrist so the watch will tighten up. Its doesn't move and you can see it easier.
