you’d have to be paul weller to pay that much

there’s a leicester company called velobici, aiming for the same market. I wanna like them cuz their local, and apparantly make the stuff locally but style wise they’ve not quite hit the mark.

I do like rapha, but, i’ve had a couple of things unpick in the last month. Free repairs is good however.

it was really good to watch. Far more televisual than, say, syncro swimming. I thought the commentatwers were really good too. Bmx will hoprfully do well off the back of this@

Proper awesome, had to leave the tele when she was 2-0 down in the semi….

returned to the tele, thought i was watching the bronze medal fight. 😀

i also annoy myself

i really can’t see how a permanent ban is made from being slightly annoying.

racism, sexism, homophobia, etc, yes. tj was none of these things

there is no real life.

there is only the internet.

at first glance, i thought it said big hitler

when will this thread be removed?

as said above,

pick a de safety that you like the look of. de blades, to suit.

save a FORTUNE in the long run.

google edwin jagger.

de shaving is no more difficult than with a gillette.

nice. good find.

😆

unklehomered’s got it covered. you will find strength to deal with the situation appropriately when you’re with your friend. any previously constructed idea of how it will go will change when you in there.

just be what you are, a friend. it’s all you can be, it’s all your friend will want.

why should i throw in 10p, then i’ll be worse off than someone who didn’t chip in.

irc – it’s a male dominated sport/pastime. a greater variety of participants will bring many positives to us all.

vicky pendleton didn’t try in her sprint match today.

she won with more ease than i take my baby’s dummy from her.

i love singletrackworld.com

why the f*** does someone getting something you’re not bother you so much?

mrs aa’s getting 12 months off off mat leave, I’m not gonna cry to the equalities commision that i only got 2 weeks off.

grow up, sometimes ou win, sometimes you lose.

anything to get more women into/onto bikes has got to be a good thing.

stop griping man.

mrs aa has read something saying the french are chuntering suggesting team gb are using illegal wheels, in that they’re not mavic but some commercially unavailable carbon wizardry.

i too have wondered about bolts. i’m a keen armstrong sceptic. applying the same logic that a performance so superior to ones contemporaries is naturally unlikely (theres scientific evidence out there that proposes that the degree that champion athletes beat other equivalently skilled/talented atheletes is very small degrees, not complete dominance) if it looks like a turd, smells like a turd……..

i feel sorry for people like denis menchov, 3 grand tours but only ‘won’ one. the other two were by people being chucked off months later.

the answers’ not to allow doping, nor to rescind the medal if there’s a retrospective positive. it’s to SHOOT THEM if there’s a retrospective positive. 😉

i might take the kids for a run round tomorrow, teach ’em how to heckle at the downhill run at the end of the campsite

hans rey popped to borrow a track pump once, and i once sold tim don some energy ge’s

the area isn’t looking too bad. There are wet claggy bits in the general area It’s been raining but looks like it’s drying out in the light breeze, am passing through burton tonight, will feed back.

fwiw, i’m a short ride away from catton, as described above, the trails are mostly dry but some parts are holding water. Having said that, the weather man says rain for the next week. I’ll be going by catton on wednesday, i’ll report back.

osbournes slowly strangling the crying baby

ta, for the replies, i thought it would be something like that.

why does tarmac retain heat better than hard pack? or am i missing something super simply and being dumb…

we bought a humax pvr9300 from richer sounds, one of their refurbs, on a whim. it’s been excellent. i was a erring a bit as it’s not hd but it’s been a really good buy. does what it;s told, good picture quality, dead easy to use the on screen menu. no catch up tho’, but, with series record, you dont need catch up. you just record everything!! 😀

could be, but even considering a reduction in traffic, i got given a wider birth.

I chased down a dude in yellow this morning.

mrs aa has a completely original 96 (or 97) kona hahanna, even down to the scratch and sniff tyres and brake pads! 😆

kiwijohn,

thats awesome. I’ve always had a thing for the ala carte.

My own retro, no pics, but a 96 Bontrager Privateer.

Rapha stuff is good quality.

Keep an eye out and hopefully you may see the etape jersey for £35 like they were last year, in the summer sale,easily worth the money.

At £95ish, their sportwool jerseys are, again, easily twice as good as an endura or altura (for example) imo.

Also, after sales service is great. My leather Rapha/Paul Smith white track gloves broke some stitches on the palm after 11 months. Free return, free repair. Awesome.

Don’t care if people thinks it’s poncey marketing shite, it’s good quality, well thought out stuff. Overpriced? Thats subective, like £3k frames, £2k wheels, Audi’s, etc etc etc. 🙂

frank has performed ‘unbelievably’ at times, it’s no surprise.

When somebody climbs any mountain at the same pace of faster than their contemporaries but show no sign of effort, whem everyone around them is f*kd then it looks suspicous. The schleks have on occasion done exactly this.

The doctor, i dont understand, the diuretic is being reported as bei g on the uci banned list.

because it’s ‘rinsing’.

my barber has a boy called fenton, no lie.

cougar raises a good point,

at work the othet day i saw ‘kahan’

next to it mum had written (kane).

Stupid.

seavers, some great names there,

i wanted lasqueeaha or laqwanda but the wife vetoed it.

Ours are named etta and ava.

Nice Names are, obviously, subjective,some good omes above amelie, amelia, ellie,are lovely, i also like bella.

i love a happy ending.

hope this is one!

my buddy is a hope factory rider, and newly 2nd time dad, and won mayhem, his training consists of beasting himself on a (approx) 1 hour commute, each way, racing at the weekends and riding around the peak district on occasion

why has no one mentioned that no stem should be less than 130mm. Even if you ride a 48cm bike…

btw, I am a roadie!!! 😆

The “rules” are bullshit. I know it’s a bit of fun, but, really just go and ride your bike.

If you slam your stem, your bike might look cool, but you’ll look a dick with your belly banging your shins.

NC might not have finished the olympic rr, but he earned his place there, mtb shoes and all, he’s still faster than probably everyone on here! 😉

nick craig did the sydney olympics road race with spd’s and a peak on his helmet.

and nick is cool!
