He doesn't say he's just started riding again. It's just taken him this long to formulate an opinion (i.e. he's a bit slow)
It wasn't that long ago our Phil was craving one of those 5k carbon bikes...

This means nothing to me.

Ohhhh!
What exactly is involved in riding street ?
No one likes you because you're a roadie.
Actually OP ..you are completely correct ..this rant shouldn’t be buried ..it should remain current until every single member lets you know what a complete prick you are ..
*Gentle applause*

On pizza?

Gammon.
Thought it would make sense but relies ob the reading of another thread.
I'm presuming from ure username you may be the same age as me, 42. That's not old, peaty is older than that, I ride with people that age too some are even 50. The cannock comment did make me smile though. Quick old man is coming, we must head out on to the downhill bit before him, wait why is he chasing us, why is he using half a set of pads on lower cliff when behind us....
Perhaps you should just night ride...
Excellent!!
Would definitely read again

<span style="font-size: 0.8rem;">Good rant, now go and put your £3.5k carbon bike atop your A6 Estate and head back to your weybridge bolt hole.</span>
Well I'm pretty sure the bridge bit is correct.
You need a couple of fat bikes
If you run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes all day, you're the asshole.
Believe me sunshine, youve not seen shit riding until you’ve been out on a Monday Night Pub Ride.
Mind you.,.. it’s only ever really a convoluted journey to get a pint
as for ‘riding street’....
BOOM!!!!

Surely if you have the presence of mind to announce your own 'rant', it is premeditated, and thus can never match the intense ferocity of the best? This should be buried amongst the chaff.
Does it hurt being angry all the time? I imagine it's like a build up of pressure and headaches? Does it hurt a bit less now you've released some of that anger?
I ride bikes to help me relax and de-stress, you seen to do the opposite.

I completely agree with whatever the OP said.
Hi Phil.
I ride a £7k carbon superbike. I always wear pads. I am slow and fat. I don’t ride as well as I did and often now, I get to the top and have to stop* for a long while. I probably look like a right wannabe and deserve your scorn.
Heart disease, especially when you have a genetic predisposition, have always been active, haven’t had an unhealthy lifestyle and you are only 43, is a bitch. This is my 32nd year of riding mountain bikes and I had my last break or gap back in 1993/1994. I still love riding bikes most weeks and talking about bikes all the time.
Makes you think...
*Stopping in a considerate place.
“This means nothing to me”
is winning so far.
Have come to conclusion since starting riding again after 4 year break that 90% of bikers are total stuck up complete ass holes
Have you considered the possibility that the problem isn't everyone else?
This means nothing to me.
If I knew how, I’d post a picture of Rigsby and his cat. ‘Oh Vienna’!
9/10

Failure to blame Thatcher at he end ruined it for me.
If you run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes all day, you’re the asshole.
Wise words
I could be wrong, but I have a sneaking suspicion that this isn’t going the way that the OP hoped it would. Wish I knew where his favourite riding spots were. I’d position myself in the middle of or at the head of every descent. Then again I ride a steel hardtail so I’m not really the subject of his rant. Anyone want to lend me a nice full suss?
Do you realize that the bulk of your posts on here make you sound pretty sad.
You're not wrong there!
OP; I'd say, stop worrying, chill out, and just enjoy life!

Perhaps, just perhaps - it wasn’t funny. You see, I’m used to that feeling. I often try to be funny and fall flat on my face. It’s best to move on and stop digging a hole. Trust me. I have a lot of experience in this.
So like me, take the walk of shame back to library. Return the Little & Large Penned ‘Be a Better Comic in only 30 Days’ book. Tear up the notes for your planned standup debut. Forget about your dreams of hob-bobbing with Hale & Pace and Cannon & Ball and return to normal life...
Thread title far too obvious and eager.
A good troll needs to start fairly innocuously before drawing people in. The thought "I'm not having that" or "I need to tell 'x' about this thread" has to come from within the trollee. On reading the OP I just felt let down.
A sheep in wolf's clothing.
1 out of ten for no paragraphs and an attempt to sound incoherent through anger - but ultimately unsuccessful.
Must try harder.
hob-bobbing
Hallowe'en round your house must be extreme.
Don't the apples get burnt?
I often try to be funny and fall flat on my face.
Wrong again,
It's fine perchy,as long as there is proper supervision.

Forums really are a big wheel made out of turds aren't they.
Rodent, that picture is frikking awesome!
Gave me a prope rgiggle it did (I'm a sad bugger)
I generally don't like people so my solution is riding at 07:30 so I don't have to have them in my way. Try it if they bother you that much as you are the one with the problem not them.
Forums really are a big wheel made out of turds aren’t they.
Yep.
The question is though, what tyres for forum-turd-wheels?
That was a great rant, proof that capitalisation isn't essential, the emotion can be carried by spelling mistakes and repetition alone, kind of a passive aggressive approach. Good stuff.
Iz ure bik saracin?
My bike is, although it's only partly carbon and wasn't £5k.
Mister P, a solution to your problem: sell your Saracin to yourself for £5k, be sure to give a receipt. Tell people you own a £5k bike.
Wrong again
Told you. I’m used to it.
I often try to be funny and fall flat on my face.
Wrong again,
So @jamj1974 has been funny all along? This really is confusing.
