Surely this forum would be a good place to organise one? I've been on a few on my own- had some good experiences and some bad ones. At least if someone gathered together some of the lone guns from STW they'd be gueranteed some good banter, if not the guy/gal of their dreams!

Anyone remember The Graduate?

Doo di do di do be do be do be do be do…..

Well here's to you Mrs Robinson…….

Oh and 90% blokes sounds good.

What's a bird? Pet budgie?

I was attacked by a Tui while riding in NZ- kept flying down and wacking my helmet. Didn't seem interested in the bike though

Now, who owns one and wants me to take her home?

My god I think he's serious….

If you are, I may have the bike for you.
Let's talk..
But not here. It's too……. public…..

Excellent- taking the Exeter crew up there tomorrow :-)

Cheers guys- shall check them out !

Cheers Tijuana –

Found this

http://www.onestop-digital.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=24_28&products_id=150

Looks like about the right ballpark

Nice pics btw- yeah, I'm going to have to hunt for the older version, new one is just too much. Is it 2.8 all the way through?

One happy hippy-

Yeah, heard some v good things about that lense- is the focus as noisy as all the reviews say it is?

May have to squeeze some more blood from the stone….

Yeah, the 50mm there looks darn good value

Tijuana- any idea where I could find the Tamron? I have done a search, but it's still around £300

have been looking at the sigma lense too amazon are doing a deal on it with a longer one for £189

"Walk closer to the subject"?? Not with the folks I ride with…..

Yup,

Loverly isn't it?

Bit more up tempo- Eels- 'Everything's gonna be cool this Christmas'

Dancake-

Thanks for the headsup- that's exactly the kind of dumb thing I'd do.. The Singletrackborgcollective applaud your bravery in going there so we don't have to!

Mojo / TFT would do a full service, which I don't need.

The LBS says they can order some in :-))

LOVE my Juicy 5's, had them years, and never had to do anything to them!

My housemate has Juicy 3's, and they seem crap….

Maybe it's different batches?

Get a transporter with rear seats- that way it doesn't have to go on as commercial insurance- cheaper at tolls too!

hmmm- may hold off on the ride tomorrow then. As it is I'm wearing 2 pairs of gloves to ride around exeter!

Anyone know where you can buy Fox fork bushings? I have the same problem…

Cheers Guys,

Well there is a devil on my shoulder saying that no one NEEDS presents this year, aand I could just spend the whole festtive season hiding from my family etc…

Great vid gusamc – Brilliant Welsh accent plus The Stranglers. What more could you possibly need???

Lastnight's Xmas party was stollen and Mohito fuelled… messy messy messy- woke to discover the living room floor awash with lime slices , mint and icing sugar, and found a current in my ear….

I had to surgically remove the last slice of stollen from the window it was stuck to- mmm breakfast!

On the Subject of Loud Amps, this from Soundgarden;
Quote
KT: People ue a lot of gear to make it look louder, to fill up the space on the stage. But then you see someone like Neil Young and he's got this small little amp over there. You just need to get your sound and the rest of it is mic'd. You should be able to hear yourself on-stage and that's about it.

CC: In terms of getting the best sounds, I've had better luck with less. They have an easier time mixing the band if you're using less gear, because they have less volume from the stage to compete with.

Top man!

I am after the whole lot… If Jeepster sold it as a download, I'd snap it up. If you've got it as mp3's you could send me that would be great :-)

For Food?

The Rusty Bike of course!

I'm a RBS customer.

I'm actually in credit- like 5 figures in credit. I am very close to taking the whole shebang to another bank. If all the banks customers voted with their feet where would they be? The directors are answerable to their customers

You can drag things around in Movie maker, but you can't construct a rough edit in the way I'm used to- all the files are up against each other- all a bit fisher price

Yes, there are evil and dispicable ways to find a copy of Premier, but they are places I'm not really sure I want to go with a nice shiney new virgin laptop….

Yes. I liked it.

YES IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT. NOW DANCE FOR US

We don't need to hoover up vomit here. We have a dog.

Thanks deadhero, yup the brushes arelooking v. rough, and the armature is black. Well, argos here we come….

LOVE THEM!

Had the socks for 3 years, and only hada few leaks in extreme conditions. Wash them at low temp and line dry them. Wear thin merino socks under them, and make sure my boots are fairly loose.

Gloves have done me 2 seasons, so far so good, may get some undergloves to keep my fingers properly warm

My loverly T4, now with alloy wheels.
2.5 turbo diesel, bought it with 40,000 on the clock.My dad's has 230,000 and still going strong

Location – Oh bum biscuits!!

That depends how long you hang around Bullers Hill Car Park late at night..

BUY AN AIR HORN

This is how URT is done well Voodoo Canzo Ti. I rode 1/2 of NZ with it, and the Alps on several occasions, no probs

5 pages, and still no mention of Tiverton or Cullumpton??

Yup, I'm on 8 speed on my hardtail. Bits were cheaper, less ghost shifting in the mud, easier to clean. TBH I don't notice any differnce between 8 and 9 speed….

Yeah, think I'm too SW for you..

Enjoy- Jacob's ladder is sweet ;-)
