‘laterally stiff but vertically compliant’

I was born in Hackney.

“The international community”

I mean, I was like, you know, no way and he was like, whatever

CFH- You go, girl!

RudeBoy, meh….

“Actually, some of my best friends are gay/black/singlespeeders/frottagers” etc

Usually said just before they spew out the most abusive bile-laden diatribe.

Never, ever true.

Actually, some of my best friends were born in Hackney, but still…..

..they can’t help it, eh? 🙂

‘Your sister let me do it’

‘No, no, it’s not too small’

“That’s just like a knob, but smaller”

“Yeah, no…”

Aaaaargh!!! Yes or No? You REALLY can’t have both!!!!!!!

Do it!

Going forward. 😡

touching base

If anyone uses that phrase in my directio I feel the urge to punch them in the face

“You don’t need suspension for UK riding”

Bike related ones (can be found in any issue of MBR):

corners like its on rails (or ‘railing corners’, same thing)
buttery smooth suspension
dialled

‘pick the low hanging fruit’

People who say “what (tyres/shock/dildo) are you RUNNING?”, rather than “using” or “have fitted”.

Anything involving the use of the following:

“trails” when not in the context of a long journey between two points
“chill/chilled/chilling” in a non-refrigeration context
“what **** for All Mountain” – really? All Mountain? Or are you actually going to ride trail (sic) centres carting around more weight than necessary?

Oh and for that matter, use of the whole marketing sub-genre bull-poop:

Downhill – fair enough, it is a specific niche needing specific kit
Freeride – hmm, I suppose so, if what you mean is big jumps and stuff
All Mountain/XC/Technical XC/All Mountain Lite/blah blah blah – shut up, you’re just riding your bike.

I hate the phrase “All mountain”

I saw MBR in the supermarket yesterday so thought I’d have a quick thumb through

It said on the cover “All mountain bikes reviewed”

They weren’t

😥

Well as far as I can see, for sure, I can think of millions of examples, well, you know what they say? But, for me, and like you do, and thousands wouldn’t, an it’s more van me job’s worth, and not in that colour; but you know what I’m like, and that’s quite literally what she done and said, and I’m six of one and half a dozen of the other about the whole thing, but you know where I’m coming from, know what I is saying, it’s like I said, what can you do. I’m only human after all’s said and done….. 😯 👿

LJ.

The use of “workshop” for anything that doesn’t involve tools.

LJ, that read just like one of Rudeboy’s posts!

Dyagetmee?
