are we supposed to know what you're on about?

If you are in Team BullHeart ( http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/petesgaff-bullheart) then yes.

Otherwise this thread may seem a little strange.

Oh, I see, I never look at the bike forum. Carry on.....

As you can tell from the photos, I have been carrying on!

I just hope some other team members spot the post before I start looking a bit weird!

Is this about the dress that you would like to wear if you thought you could get away with it? Or somethink???

I didn't make the team, so you ain't getting any pics from me.

[i]before I start looking a bit weird![/i]

Huh?

This is me looking decidedly glam (for me) - I won't look anything like this on 'race day'. I might wear my wig though:

dress? did i miss something? it's a joke right?.

The Laura Ashley frock or smock is full of pretty florals, have a rummage through your local charity shop.

TN - I remember your wedding dress (red) it was gorgeous.

likes, real ale, bikes, music.
dislikes,ginger biscuits and custard creams, that dishwater aka lager, having to work for a living.

dress? did i miss something? it's a joke right?

Nope. Bullheart race rules. We wear dresses. All of us...

how about a flowery jumpsuit instead? 😀

Thanks bunnyhop.
I reckon this'd be a great opportunity to reuse the dress. 🙂 (with a slight modification to the skirt of course)

No dresses. Not even as a larf. I look daft enough as it is.

Midget Jim out, DezB in!

too late nickf you're on the list! 😆 , i'll wear one for the crack 😀 but be warned it's going to damage everyone else more than me 😯

Im trying to post a picture! (Not done it before on here)And i'm not very clever 😕

Look, I ride like a girl, I mince down every descent, and I used to have a pink Stumpjumper. That's got to be enough, surely?

~NickF -
We will bring you a dress if you dont bring your own

nickf - Remember our email conversation from a while back? Ask yourself a question; do you think Mark will compromise on the dress issue?

Whaddyareckon? 😉

My mum just emailed me the picture of the last time I wore a dress (well, skirt). I was honestly going to post it on here, but I just CAN'T!
I'll print it off and bring it with me 🙂

So to comply with WCA's request...

Just for Diane:
[i]Posting an Image

The image must be hosted on the internet somewhere.

If it is on your computer you must first upload it to a photo hosting site. Try a search for image hosting to get you started.

Once you have chosen the image you want to show on the forum you need to find its URL (universal resource locator – its location on the internet).

Do this by right clicking on the image and choosing “copy image location” (or similar wording depending on your web browser). Note that this must be the location of the image itself, not the URL of the page it is on.

Then go to the forum and type without spaces:

[ img ] [ /img ]

Where ‘ ’ is the URL you just retrieved.

If you are linking to an image that you do not own copyright on then you must link back to the originating website by adding the [ url ] tag around the [ img ] tag as so:

[ url= http://www.singletrackworld.com/ ][ img ] [ /img ][ /url ]

Flickr

Flickr follows the same rules as above but they have added a button to retrieve the BBcode.

Find the photo you want on flickr
Above the photo there are two boxes “actions” and “share this”
Drop the menu in “share this”
See “grab the HTML/BBCode” and click.
See two buttons below the script, “HTML” “BBCode”
Check “BBCode”
Paste this code into the Singletrack forum post box[/i]

nickf - Remember our email conversation from a while back? Ask yourself a question; do you think Mark will compromise on the dress issue?

Yep, I remember. Care to have a wager on who's going to win on the miserablist, confrontational, digs-his-heels-in front?

Have we all emailed "whacky" photos to Bullheart? I'm trying to find one!

🙂

Just not enough Laura Ashley dresses.

Disappointed of Sheffield

Care to have a wager on who's going to win on the miserablist, confrontational, digs-his-heels-in front?

Ask my wife.

And for the rest of you; its a dress on the day of the race, not a photo of you from your murky past...

No dress, no ride.

Change of rules:

[b]No dresses. We ride in Bullheart race kit only. [/b]

Many thanks,

bullheart

wow! does that mean you managed to get some kit sorted then?.

In the process of. You're saved!

superb! but i would have done it for the cause even tho it would be the first time in my life, does this mean you'll require some measurements?.

Damn! I will have to send the catalogue samples back now.

Why the change? He asked, trying hard not to sound disappointed...

Dez - 'Cos I'm a grumpy sod, I'm afraid. No sense of humour, me.

Don't worry, you can all get your own back by allocating me a 3am rain-sodden mudfest of a lap so that I have to walk three miles when I rip my mech off in the bracken.

Is it too late to get involved? What with my [s]singletrack[/s] world falling apart yesterday I didn't send my details in.

Politics.

Well I think Bullheart racing kit sounds FAB . Dresses should be worn whilst waiting to go out for our lap 🙂

Soma Rich - just seen the post - ****erty **** - will get back to you once i've had a lie dowm 😯

He's not that frightening in real life. Quite nice really.

Sorry Diane did I get too techy?

Oh no prob not -i'll get round to it 🙂 thanks

I don't have any photos of me. Really, honestly.

So here's a picture of my dog.

Scrawny lookin thing

I feed her as much as she'll eat, but she runs many times the distance I cover on each walk, so she's probably doing 40 miles per day. That's based on 2 walks of around 90 minutes each.

Anyway, trailhounds are meant to be lean. At proper racing weight (about 2kg/15%) she'd look properly thin.

The other one's a bit more substantial, but you'd never guess they eat the same

Only kidding Nick! Similar to my dozy hound. :0)
