F1 in yet another rule change? Surely not…

Oh I do that, got big wheels and tyres I can use of my Bullit too. Just don’t want to miss out on riding on holiday cos me backs knackered! I’m very tempted though as I had be thinking about it and your pics have started to sway me again.

Hmmmm, only problem I have is a dodgy back, long rides on my Alpine get my back stiffening up.

Can’t be as noisey/creaky as an Orange.

Liking it.

Sccchweet. I’m off to Les Arcs in a couple of months. Maybe I should take my Alpine afterall.

I recommend going to Innerleithen instead.

Bell? Gay. I find speeding up to the back of them and then doing a massive skid, spraying them with grit and mud soon gets them moving. Makes me look cool too. BBBBRRRAAAAAP!

Flickr. I’ve got a pro account, easy to use, plenty of groups to join, updates you when mates post new photos, has a nice stand alone piece of software for uploading. Only used Fotopic in the past, which was a pretty crap.

I would have given it right back.

*shudders at the memory*

Flickr. Fotopic sucks.

I got meself a decent set of cutters, made it all so much easier and neater after all the other half arsed ways I did it.

We’ll be complaining if your not able to keep up :D

Better be fit for a couple of months time Stevo!

I really like that.

Oh for Gods sake, get over yourself.

Liverpool thumping them 5-0 the other week means nowt. Man U have thumped Stoke 5-0 and Liverpool haven’t even beaten them this season. Does make for an exciting end of season though. Just about shades the SPL up here for excitement… no, really…

Duff batch of DVD’s? Had that happen to me a few times.

All of the above and do Squamish, one of the best days riding I’ve done.

Is there any other sport that has so many appeals, rule changes, demotions, penalties, arguments used and changed every year?

I’ve just started in the world of webdigial malarky through my work too. Did some course’s with a company through here in Edinburgh called Tidalfire who were very good. I’ve bought loads of books to read and there is so much free info available on the web its self. Understanding HTML isn’t that difficult once someone explains it to you I found and I’m currently getting my head round CSS which ain’t as hard as I thought it would be.

None of it is hard, just longer, some nice rocky sections and much better than the red.

Pfft. Could easily do 70mph up there.

Orange single speeds. Thrilling.

Get SLX, XTR is an utter rip off.

Whyte looks like any other generic hardtail. Empire looks hideous. And that Dekerf is bloody hideous too. Next.

Mountain Kings: great, can get the odd pinch flat. Like them.
Nobby Nics: Utter pish, can get loads of pinch flats no matter what bloody PSI I had in them. Hate them.

JON – really, you prefer the red bit to The Bitch? Its one of the few good rocky twisty bits at GT IMO.

Spooky Wood is over rated. I’d do the Boundry Trail on the black over it. In fact I’d do Innerleithen over GT and a play on the DH runs and then down Caddon Bank which pisses all over Spooky Wood frankly.

Which ever one is working. It just a bike and some hills.

I do know that. I’ve ridden them many times, so stop jumping to conclusions. Very good but dunno about some of the best on the planet though.

Heard that one before TJ…

And with his last post proves my point. “my trails are so great right on my doorstep etc…”

{Abuse removed and poster given a 2 day break – mod}

I just bought a 750GB external hard drive for my iMac for £60 from Amazon, partitioned it, and using Time Machine (how good is it?!) with it. Early days, but all going swimmingly so far. Hope it stays that way…

STW people taking it all too seriously shocker. Again.

All this does is confirm how awful most road bikes look to me IMO etc etc

Go test ride loads.
