buy cheap, learn, break, upgrade. then you’ll get it more in your head where you need to spend the money, and what sort of riding you want to do. if you want to emulate the guys in the first video, then i would say you would want to be learning on a hardtail anyway.

In what way is it a mountain bike if it doesn’t have any gears? The other one is “but you can only ride one bike at a time” to which I would ask how many pairs of shoes they own.

😯

I hoped you were. Riding an extra two hundred miles to win would be certifiable, and yet a little bit noble at the same time.

apologies on the dates, never done it before so live and learn. You’d have had to up your miles by a fair bit simon to have won. take a moral victory.

No obsession. Just works.

it’s the only bike that i own that i’d replace if it broke, everything else would get changed.

What do you guys think dinner ladies do??? Evening meals for kids?

exactly that. i just get a sandwich for my lunch, definitely nothing hot and definitely no pudding.

cute dog btw, if you believe in looking at puppies paws, will be a big one.

i just got back from a dusty, fast blast over harden moor, glass of wine, ride guide on the telly, child and wife asleep. 😀

i have lived in yorkshire for so long now that dinner sounds wrong, unless it’s more than two courses.

Tea is every day evening meal, dinner is fancy, supper is late and simple, however dinner will never be at lunchtime for me.Life was a lot simpler when i was southern.

phat ones.

i’m really sorry 😳

noooooo, not the “i don’t understand why everyone doesn’t find this trail centre feature as easy as i do, said in a luke skywalker wanting to to go and buy some power converters voice” thread again.

same with long earrings, maybe with a feather dangling off the end of them.

are you that hard?

Stainburn should be your next destination, it’s a mini challenge wonderland.

This reminds me of conversations i used to have with an obese workmate, who had loads of ideas of how to lose the weight, but wouldn’t actually commit to any of them and she also thought she had a special sort of body that worked differently to everyone elses and so she needed to eat chips etc. she was not succesfull.

Not seen molgrips on the defence like this since what’shisnameawesome flounced.
Maybe not on defence, but debating from a unique standpoint.

I’m no racist, but…

Twenty quid for people and accessories?
This would seriously sort my wife’s birthday present.

You teach English to foreign geniuses?

i think his problem is you’re awesome use of apostrophe’s.

Relax and look up. you don’t need to do much apart from try and get as much speed for those berms after.

no yes no

Would. 😳

People who can’t accept that they are wrong. 😀

If my son was told not to take his ds to school, i can 100% guarantee he wouldn’t take it.

Reason being im his dad, and he does what his dad says, no questions no debates.

you’re funny. 😆

Nice.

a minge.

you could try spinning the derailleur round anti clockwise (i think), just a bit. this can enable more of the chain to be on the cogs.

To my eyes goldie seems out of place on your list. I’d like to see the bob moog one. Or pet shop boys. My wife and I were talking the other day about how influential they were in a quite subtle way. More in terms of electronic culture than sound, likewise erasure. Although we both accept that this is probably due to our age and them being the most visible entry into electronic music.
It’s a nice choice to be making for a degree.

dhb roubaix, really good.

likewise.

no problem

road.

Are we having a road one this month?

that’s was well timed, i meant finally we have a cat. but i’m pleased for you too sbz.

As I said, I never followed that thread.

NO ONE is going to believe this.

how stupid would jimmy have looked in the original post if you had gone, “yeah, but i’ve offered you a refund on receipt”. No more drama.
