great gloves windproof, waterproof & very grippy with the rubber bits on the finger tips. That’s a great price too @ Wiggle.

have you tried oiling your knees? 😉

‘ere you lot leave Saltash ‘The gateway to Cornwall’ alone – Thank you very muchly 😆

Welcome to Devon Simon & I hope to catch up on Dartmoor some time to meet the legend that is Mr Ralli

Well done mate now for the hard part asking your Gf if she wants to marry you…………. Good Luck 😀

not far to go to the 1000th post so here’s a few more pics

Taxi 95

just how big a fish can you balance on yer heed?

where have all the riders gone?

come on guys keep this one going…..

tyre valves/logos ………….. shocking 😕

love the bike stand on the rear hub very ‘erm rad

this might do the trick although you do get some extra bits too….

ferrules long

a few from my trips to Afan

Skyline

The rock garden

The pool

The visitors centre/cafe

The far end of Whites Level looking back to the visitors centre

A couple from The Wall

Hope this helps 🙂

ring them up to make sure your future father-in-law is gonna be there – cos you’ll look a right berk if he’s out after driving all that way – then ask him face to face. He will appreciate the big effort you made to ask for his permission & you never know when this good one deed could be to your advantage in the future.

Good luck & don’t forget to buy your future mother-in-law a little pressie (flowers, choccys, etc) as your future wife is also her little girl too 🙂

is that ‘Stoner’ ? 😉

I hope he wasn’t wearing jojo’s bra & pants again 😉

AVG &/or AVAST both free & both very good

have a nice one & don’t forget to post a pic of your bike against the Bicknoller post later 😀

don’t wear white sox 😕

have your students been giving you a hard time again …..

not wanting to stop the momentum of this brilliant thread here are few more from the crispy bacon photo albumn

Somemore bikey ones

The end of the Norwich 100 when I rode my Raleigh Max Y-framed sled – god was I **** 😕

Some Exmoor highspot shots including one with cipher23

After a particularly wet one on Dartmoor

& another posh one of me & Mrs C B 😳

Come on guys lets see how far this one can run 600 is just round the corner

don’t be shy MrFannay lets see a picture of your new bike then 😀

Some holiday ones from The Seychelles

and my best mobi-cam one – Avon Dam Dartmoor

If they are only 10 months old then they should still be under warranty, take them back to where you bought them or contact Propel yourself to get it sorted. As rhid said there are known problems with the K24’s & you really need them put right by the importer/distributer. I had trouble with my K24’s & after they were returned to Propel for attention they have been awesome yet again.

Wow they look all-white & it looks like you’ve done a wheelie good job there 😉

IGMC

WCA you know that big chopper you’ve got in your garage, well………. 😉

Pardon, speak up I can’t hear you…… 😉

how soon will I be able to get back riding again after having the stitches out of my shoulder next Friday?

I don’t want to miss the STW Quantocks ride on 21st & I’m planning on going to Wales for the weekend after 🙁

a street entertainer at Mallory Square Key West doing his high wire act above the solid concrete pier with no safety net ………….. respect

with the danger of starting yet another Superstar thread IMHO the SS organic ones 4 pairs for less than £20 is great value. I’ve never had one where the pad has fallen off the backing plate, they work well & last OK. The OEM ones were £15 a pair from my LBS 🙂

As well as re-pointing the wall don’t forget to re-paint that blue door – shocking 😉

Oh & when the wife’s not looking go back & nick the pedals off her bike for your Sunn Roader ….. 🙂

After 10 pints of anti-gravity water Mike ‘borrows’ a bike he found outside the pub last night leaving poor old bubbles to make his own way home 😕

about time you painted your fence & powerwashed the concrete bases now the bike is finished 😉

PS your grass is OK tho

some bikey ones ….

a ‘posh’ one with Mrs Bacon…

damn I was expecting a real post not a shiny frame 🙁

where’s the monkey then??

I_Ache I sympathise with you mate however it looks in this case like a very unfortunate timing issue with your wife ceasing employment prior to 5th April & all outstanding monies due to her being paid in the same tax year 😥

On the positive side here is a link to the HMRC Website so you can sort out how to claim any Tax refund after 5th April 2009 😀

Good luck to you, Mrs I_Ache & all I_Aches jnr.

I_Ache I think you answered your own question when you said “No thats it she has finished there now no longer an employee.”

It looks as if the money your wife’s employer has paid to your wife was an amount that she was legally entitled to, however as she is now no longer an employee then they would have had to pay it in one go hence the large Tax deduction. Your wife will now have to wait until after 5th April before she can make a claim for any tax overpaid in 2008/09.

With all due respect you stated your wife worked for a Large Accounting Firm & IMHO I wouldn’t expect someone with a financial background getting something like this incorrect.

IMHO Skyline in the morning lunch in the Drop Off cafe & then Penhydd or W2 in the afternoon 😀

hint: he’s the one with the scary eyes…

bottom righthand corner……

does my bum look big in this …. 😉

na we eat them off the back of a nekid girl, jam and cream spread seperately..

Hmmmmmm ‘nekid girl, jam & cream’………….. on second thoughts & with the greatest respect to Mrs Dibbs snr I think I’d like a Zummerzet scone afterall 😛

what tyres for the STW Quantocks ride on 21st March 😉

which came first the chicken or the egg?

well then if Mrs Dibbs snr says cream first on the scone then I suppose I’d better try it that way just the once. I only hope I don’t get caught by the Kernow cream tea Plod on the way home tho 🙂

So if the Cornish & Devonians have different jam/cream/scone habits how do you Zummerzet geezers eat yours? probably with a pint of cider & The Wurzels playing in the background 😉
