I have fangs.
you know what, I've pretty much forgotten (pre-dates the 2008 hack - something to do with waffling on without making much sense)...
When my ex's (JojoA1) daughter was young, it was what she called me!
45 Bunsen burners
Thats a lot of Bunsen burners! I dont think my school had enough gas taps across all the science rooms to accommodate that many!
Name: Oi followed by real name, also doubles as social media handles, not sure where it came from, but was said once and then caught on.
I rode a yeti called Dave
My name comes from my early skiing days when me and a few mates were some of the first people to use ski blades thus we told everyone we met that we were bladers and not people who slid on tea trays or used stabilisers. The numbers i had to add so they actually were my numbers for my combination lock at work.
Adjustablewench - my dads silly nickname for me as a child as I was into gymnastics and yoga and could tie myself in knots.
One of my favourite party tricks when I was little was laying on my stomach and arch backwards until I put my feet on my forehead - never found a practice use for that skill.
Some of my joints are still overly bendy but my neck isn't anymore thanks to spinal fusion
Maybe i should now be notsoadjustablewench
EuroMar is a mish-mash of foreign languages that can be used in snow resorts all over the [s]globe [/s]Europe. As the drunken inventor of this new tongue, it was named after me and another nickname was born.
It's my pre-hack username, srtfully shortened.
The film the Edukators and I used to teach.
Admit it Jambalya, your login came from the Carpenters song. 😉

Before the great hack I was mike-b. When re-registering I chose the name of my longest serving bike.
A very muscular right arm.
From an accident with our lab mascot and the protein cross linker.
^^^ I did wonder ... 🙂
I am a Viz comic character.
All sensible ideas relating to my actual name were taken.

I rode a yeti called Dave
It used to live in a cave
It was painted blue

That yeti was my fave
Oh and I'm a typo that stuck
The bike I had when I registered, when I really 'got into' mountain biking - Genesis Core 30.
I thought that bike was immense, but was a bit on the small side in reality, my mate still has the frame so I might have it back to hang on the wall one day.
I like rubbish italian cars. There's a song by the New Fast Automatic Daffodils which Lister convinced himself during a car journey 25 years ago has the words "HOT FIIAAAAT" in it. It stuck.
The amount of tomato juice that I can drink in one sitting.
Rank/Name.
Obvs.
(Not really. Chosen for BM Pirate Raid way back in the olden days. Just sort of stuck.)
started a shoe company, sold it and now live on the profits left over after the coke and hookers invoice
I've been Hodgy on other forums ( now defunct )..and was on this forum a few light years back ..but forgot / misplaced my password and couldn't retrieve it ..after being inactive for years.
Because of this my first choice user name can't be used and the nd refers to my two forenames..( wild eh?)..crazy really as my surname is Smith ..
My favourite car a Mk 1 Escort Mexico YES 712M Sebring Red was the colour
The El Nino of the wine industry whatever that means!
I shaved my beard off and my mate said I looked like a lumpy potato [ not to be confused with mr potato head who also posts on here and is clearly a fake

Mrs F used to love those shoes.
I play drums and my name is John
Abbreviated surname which was my nickname from school.
Dexter Gordon got Paris.
I got Manchester.
When I was going out on the bike, when we moved to a new area, the kids would ask where I was going. I would reply I was going exploring in the woods for trail. Hence no.1 son telling his mates, 'My daddy go 'sploring, he a 'splorer.'
My name is Joey, and back in the day when I raced I managed to somehow take wrong turns on clearly marked XC courses.
I had a chrome TSG skate style helmet, one of my mates at uni said it made me look like a momo gearknob, looking back I think he was being kind adding the gear, and the name stuck once I started using it as an online gaming tag.
Admittedly, 20 years on those same friends occasionally forget and call me Matt by accident
I live in Brighton and I am a Sasquatch.
Military nickname for the blokes in the Raf Regt, of which I was once a part of many, many years ago!

I signed up for another forum where people had cool nicknames, I've never had a nickname, so I chose something that sort of rhymed with my name so I was one of the cool kids too.
No one in the real world knows me as prawny, which is useful I spose if any of my managers ever frequent the same forums as me.
Lets just say I've missed a few corners in my time
I sometimes see a grass snake when riding through the local woods (pretty sure its the same snake, mostly in the same place, year after year), natrix natrix is the latin for grass snake 😀
Old call sign(s) from work - I was Kilo 10 for a number of years and Kilo was also the call sign for the motorbike on our surveillance deployments
Been snowboarding since the early nineties
My names Bob
Signed up for the Snowboard UK forum somewhere around 2001
Combined the two but forgot the "G" 😳
I'm Matt.
I'm often out.
And about.
When I first signed up as a premier subscriber I didn't think I would use the forum 🙄
Its a pun based on my surname, rather than me just not knowing how to spell properly.
It's my name
The mountain I ski on.
It is my surname

Military nickname for the blokes in the Raf Regt, of which I was once a part of many, many years ago!
Still get grief now whenever anyone hears that 🙄
CharlieMungus » It's my name
Your parents missed a trick there, eh... 🙂
Signed up to another forum with this user name soon after I'd been knocked off and used my face to slow myself and the bike (to which I was still attached) down.
I don't recommend it - tarmac won
The name of the parrot/hawk in Bottom.
Ermmmm.
I tried to photoshop James off the forum but couldn't, so have had to settle for Jamie.
The reality is I hate it when people call me Jamie 🙁
I was buffetslayer on the old forum. My skills on that front might be why I ended up with the body shape my current username alludes to?
juanking - Member
Ermmmm
Don't be shy, do expand....

When I started to mtb i would ride up a big hill and think I was nearing the top only to find a bigger climb around the corner.I would say to myself..(well f@#k me) did this all the time... so when asked for a username..have a guess what I said to myself.
Old footy manager used to shout 'gerit to langylad' as I was on the wing.
Strange as I'm called Loretta.
Ex girlfriend bought me a round squashy thing 20 odd years ago. It's called a mudmonster and is supposed to relieve stress. Biking relieves stress better though and now and again I get covered in mud.
BJ was taken.
Had an Airborne Lancaster when I joined.
I made it up.
I did consider asking the mods* to change it a few years ago as I was a bit sensitive to double meaning but kind of learned to love it in the end.
Rachel
* autocorrected to “kids” initially. Make of that what you will
Well...
I drive like Elwood, but look like Jake.
Rather predictably, it's my name.
I was given my name by a dear (now deceased) friend who was known as the Earl of Wisbech - I used to live in Church Gresley, and co-incidentally before that grew up a couple of miles from Netherseal Rectory where Sir Nigel Gresley grew up.
Mine is from the old days of peer to peer sharing sites.
My online gaming name used to be Butt Nugget in Counter Strike BITD mainly as I was so bad at it for months. Until it became a bit of a (bad) obsession and I got pretty damned good at the game.
I then went a bit more upmarket with Poopscoop.
Then started using it on forums and the like.
Rather predictably, it's my name.
And one of my sons, who shares it, is pleased that you are on here.
Ironic take on myself/the industry I work in. Could have been PaulTheBear but that's just too much typing...
Rata the labrador, still manages most of my social media presence from beyond the grave bless her.
My other outdoor sport is sculling. The rest of my username is self explanatory...
I am he exiled spiritual leader of Tibet innit
Back in the day, Leffeboy and a couple of our mates produced a short lived mountain bike flyer called Moont.
In those days random punters could show up at a World Cup cross country race and shared the start line with the pros. At one of the Grundig or Carlsberg sponsored races at Rothiemurchus the Italian announcer tried to find me over the PA. He mispronounced my surname as MC Laren. MC Hammer was big at the time. The unlikely prefix stuck.
