    Totally illegal, but a nice ride is if you go out through porth on the road, through watergate, & up to bedruthan steps on the road, then back down the coast path.

    Genuinely curious about how these superinjunctions work – if I was to write on my facebook status that footballer x has been sleeping with ‘big brother hottie’ would I be sued or go to jail?

    Oh & how come caught offside are allowed to mention names in their comments but we aren’t on here?

    Why’s he call it speed painting if it took him 8hrs!?

    Good skills though – bet he’s not using a mouse!

    No idea, how it rides but that is one ugly linkage & it seems to put the shock right in the way of all the crap from the back wheel

    whoever’s in charge of the camera suite wants shooting – a couple of times they’ve cut away from the action just as it gets interesting…

    Given the winters in Cleveland – Indoors biking is a great idea.

    Been once did all the tourist spots & drove along the south coast (sorta – stayed in hostels) would love to go back & explore the east & north, follow the ring road. Very jealous of your opportunity to explore the f roads, they were very much a no go area in the 206 I hired!

    apparently the twilight movies are quite big – I have no intention of ever watching them – unless I’m plugged into a clockwork orange style correction device.

    Not sure if planet terror counts as it was made as a homage to b movies..

    It depends on what you want to do.

    If you already own a ps3 or xbox then it doesn’t do much that they can’t do. If however you want a nice integrated way to look at your iphoto’s & play drm itunes music through a central hub on your telly & browse youtube etc then it’s very good.

    I think. I was tempted earlier this year – even to the point of wandering into an apple store to see if they could convince me I needed it, in the end I stuck with my ps3 & medialink on my mac.

    Make sure to ride a 140mm hardtail before you decide – it is my considered opinion that most of the time that is too much fork for a hardtail for XC / trail centres unless you are doing big tricks, and a lighter more XC oriented setup is in fact more fun and more ridable for most people

    A 140mm hard tail? At a trail centre? Are you mad? You will probably die! You need a 6″ trail bike just to attempt some of the obstacles there! 😉

    Personally I ride a PA (in 853 flavour..) so am slightly biased, a mate runs a Cotic Soul which is also very nice (lighter as well). The Evil is a lovely looking bike & I’ve always wanted one, until I picked it up!
    Still want one, however I don’t think it’d make a good xc bike compared to the others mentioned, as a ‘freeride’ or ‘downhill’ hardtail then yes please!

    Having just had a google at maxi dresses – imho – not as bad as saggy ugg boots or what you see in the top shop window, or half the stuff in new look (my girlfriend often heads for the door quickly when I point out how ugly most of the clothing is in there quite loudly)

    Pinch punctures are generally caused by having pressures too low, do you know what pressure you’re running at?

    I’m using BMX grips, I was converted & have since converted about 5 people to them thus far. Bit of GT85/hairspray & they don’t go anywhere & they are soo much softer & more comfortable than most specific mountain bike grips.

    Only downside is you need to cut off the flange (oo-eer!)

    I managed to get a rock shox reba off the classifieds here for about £120, it replaced the suntour unit on my girlfriends avalanche, the difference between them was like night & day. It is an 07 model & has IS mount & just having them serviced they apparently have a spaced inside that allows us to go from 100 to 120mm travel if ever required.

    I’m enjoying this – adds an extra dimension to a very good track, in my opinion, when listening to the original now it sounds flat in comparison…

    I would check/fiddle with the angle of the bars, failing that either try the specialized bg gloves with the ulner nerve patch or some ergon grips

    Great thread – i was working to midnight last night & am going to be there from 7.30am today & It’s raining outside, but I’ve got a smile on my face. Sure it won’t last!

    The noise their fans were making you would’ve thought the match was in Ghana.

    Dawn of the Dead remake, Zombieland, Planet Terror, The Walking Dead (as others have mentioned, not has harsh as the novels but still not pretty grim)

    Sunny commute – possible long way into work, short way home, swap bikes & take out a test bike I currently have in my possession.

    Now the only blot on an otherwise perfect day is the work bit inbetween the bike rides that are bookending my day.

    I’m failing to see what the fuss is about – surely he’s not permanent captain? If Gerrard or Rio were fit they’d be captain…

    Stop listening to Radio 1.

    It was on in the car the other day – usually listen to 6music..

    121 goals in 275 appearances is a pretty good return if you ask me. Admittedly not as good as 55 in 70 for Newcastle.

    Someone on the other thread mentioned that the police were only interested if the value of fraud was above £5000. That is shocking. It is theft without a shadow of a doubt. It really frustrates me, these people will keep doing it as long as there is no consequence which there doesn’t seem to be.

    That could be quite a good way to get rich quick, just make sure you fraud enough to stay under that amount across a range of cards…

    To be honest, I haven’t been overly impressed with Carroll so far, so we can’t exactly gloat over paying exorbitant fees for a waste of space….yet.

    I think Carroll will come good, provided he stays at the boyzone concerts & out the bars & pubs, don’t forget he is returning from injury & give him 4-5 full games before starting to pass judgement.

    Suarez looks like a bargain tho….

    reminds me of when keegan sold andy cole.

    Except Andy Cole continued scoring regularly with goals bouncing in off his ass, knees, chest & ears.

    thought it was fishy when they bought him & there was no noise from Man City…. unless he finds some form soon he will go down as the biggest transfer flop in history.

    I experienced something similar there was an advert in the cinema for JLS’s new single – I was laughing my head off at the lyrics & the song but it turned out it was serious…

    It’s not just Japan that needs help at the moment? The countries that Shelterbox is in here are probably more in need of your donations cos they haven’t made the news…
