    I once spent about 10 minutes on my road bike tailing an old bloke who was doing about 20mph into a strong head wind on a sit-up-and-beg. I was killing myself just to keep up with him, and I remember looking up and watching him spark up a fag while nonchalantly keeping up the same pace. It's only when I caught up with him at a junction that I actually saw the battery pack and motor hub. I'd been about a metre or two away from him the whole time but hadn't heard any noise, despite it being a fairly industrial looking motor on his bike; and there were hardly any pissed Belgians screaming at us at the time.
    Just saying…

    Good advice (barring Woppit obviously, and your wacky sense of humour) dropping then resorting -ve seems to have done the trick. This is a useful forum!

    Lightsabre app. Pointless, childish, and amazing while pissed.

    Everything looks like it's behaving, hence the confusion. Going to LBS it…

    I thought it was crap. I love pretty much everything else Chris Morris has done. Couple of belly laughs (wookie scene), but thought it mostly unfunny, uninteresting, and found the Omar and white guy characyers very annoying.

    I saw the 'new' Alice in Chains a few months ago, and they were very good. The new lead singer sounds enough like Laine Stayley (sic?) to not spoil the songs.
    The new album is a bit hit and miss, some good, some absolute gash.
    Rooster is a choon, their Unplugged album was very good.

    Great jacket, I've found it much more breathable than my Altura React jacket. Completely waterproof, folds down small, perfect.

    RPRT – Appreciate it's a tough ask to take pics of people winging past at a rate of knots. I just wanted that shot as it was about the only time I got out of the granny ring. Cheers anyway!

    1184. Just found another pic of me, er, not looking at the camera at the finish. Not moaning (much), as I know it's not the easiest environment to take pictures in, I'm just bitter as there's 2 good shots of my mate in there.

    I'm gutted, the pic of me at the same place is crap (it's taken from miles away), and the guy on the last descent took one of me which should have been sweet, but I guessed he must have cocked it up, as it ain't up there. Either that or my face broke the camera…
    Great event though. The issue with the woods signage was sorted by the time I wheezed round there.

    Best. Thread. Ever. It's like being out with 3 bickering couples.

    Yeah, Rebas look good to me. It's a 19" frame, so i don't think there'll be any height issues.

    I did their one day course the other day, and thought the standard of tuition was great, really felt I'd learned something. Tim the instructor was very knowledgable (able-to-tell-a-bike-by-its-rear-hangers-knowledgable!). Good set-up, central location, would recommend.

    Being a complete numpty, I was planning on doing this on a Wolf Trail, take it that's going to be a bit heavy?
