Where are you? It’s nice and dry here… for now!

Mrs Eye and myself both work through the same company:

She’s a stylist (advertising, props and wardrobe) and I’m a graphic designer.

She also does the day to day admin as I’m usually busier than she is. We are starting to work more together on projects, as we’re trying to form ‘our how the hell do we get out of London, move to Wales and still earn a living doing what we do escape plan’.

The recession hasn’t really affected me (yet) but the OH has been a bit quieter that previous years.

Think thats nice check out the top end version.

It made me go PHWORRRRRR :D then Blumin ‘eck 6.5K. 8O

Doesn’t specify the weights anywhere though for XC bikes you’d expect better.

nice though

Stunning bike.

where are you seeing this, can you at least draw us all a picture?

I wanted a Hemlock and I feel like this could replace my PACE (replacement to the 405)/ASR 5C lust.

I’m itching to see it but feel peeved like wrecker at the tease of it.

I’m awash with conflicting emotions about this post

sheeeeeet

All I’m seeing are hemlocks, help an idiot out and post me a link!

where can I see a picutre:?: :!:[/u]

Nothing on the website about it!

This thread seems to say more about that Lahndan than about cycling.
Thank flook the damned place is 200 miles away from me.

Well the OP was about cycling in Croydonm, south LAHNDAN (kind of). Did that escape your notice? :wink:

You can expand the discussion by regaling us with tales of commuting in your local urban conurbation.

I use bonty foam jobs…..and bar ends. Compulsory.

I’m toying with the idea of bar ends.

I used to have xlite stubbies, the Ritchey WCS alloy ones look good. lighter than the carbon ones that are twice the price.

Anyone else supporting horns on their bars?

No point in hogging the road just to infuriate someone when you can drop into the kerb if safe to let them past.

So you’re disagreeing with those who say he’s not taking up enough road?

**** hell this is pointless

Why rant then?

you’re just being a ____ (fill in blanks as you see fit) :D

He’s not taking enough space, if he added another 50cm then cars couldn’t do half the overtakes.

The knobs pulling out/ turning right in front of him is a different matter, nothing can control that, apart from
riding like people are our to get you and making sure your brakes are primed.

It’s a daily occurrence in our fair city, best not let it get to you or you look like a mental riding around shouting.

Looks to me like his blood pressure might benefit from leaving the bike at home.

I’m liking his horn, it seems very effective. Where do I get one?

What bike did you get?

Pics of the shiny new beast please?

probably, tbh though it sounds like you met an asshole who coincidently happened to be walking 3 dogs imo.
assholitis affect the lives of many, and there is no known cure for it.
there are numerous threads on here, talking about assholes on horses, assholes in 4x4s, assholes rambling, assholes walking dogs etc etc.
common theme seems to be assholes i reckon.

You forgot asshole cyclists from your list.

It’s not a pop at you Derek, By what you’ve said you slowed down and passed him – he overreacted and you blew you top.

There’s no winners here I’m afraid.

Yeti ASR C Large.Seatmast cut for 33.5″ inside leg. Any good to you?

Too big for me I’m afraid, I neen a medium.

The Canyons poop all over Boardman for looks and equipment level.

If I was buying new, that’s where my cash would be going. If I wasn’t obsessed with getting a Yeti that is.

The proff beat me to it!

dare I suggest a second hand bike? Off this forum or pinkbike, he’ll get a lot bike/better spec. If he doesn’t mind it being used.

:oops:

Now I feel like a twunt, at least I don’t owe 40 big one.

Here’s my list,

I pretend to be a monster when walking on my own and make thunderous footstep sound fx’s.

I try to hand glide on supermarket trollies using my body wieght to go around corners.

When cycling I pretend that cars and other vehicles are crashing and blowing up around me and I’m swerving through it all and I also talk to animals and birds when out and about.

I’m 38.

But thats America’s main export isnt it? Democracy. Or is it war?

don’t forget porn and obesity.

Could someone start a nuclear war please … mankind need to be culled fast.

Nuke them all or be nuked whichever comes first is fine with me.

What’s with this pussyfooting eh? Get it over and done with and nuke them.

Human is the scum of the earth. Yes, including you and me.

I think an Ebola epidemic would be much better, then all the animals and plant life won’t suffer.

And those of us left coud go for a nice ride as the trails won’t be overcrowded. :D

Humans are scum but a few left would be nice, just to tell the monkeys what dicks we were when they take over.

if you wanna look at it like that, everyone dies for nothing really

We all die – yes but before then we get to live, have families, see them grow up, ride some bikes in some nice places. Put simply we get to live and then we die. That’s not nothing – that’s a very big something.

America wants irans oil and large reserves of cash sitting around the world. Like in Iraq they’ll rape the economy under the pretense of bringing democracy and keeping order in the world. They can’t fix their own economy so they might as well steal someone else’s. Obama is such a **** disappointment, the only change he’s brought is in skin color with the same bullshit underneath it.

Now Iran isn’t without it’s problems but ffs the average age of population is 26. the previous generation was taken out by Americas last foray, curtesy of the proxy war they fought using a certain Mr S Hussain.

Time will fix everything, Iran’s leaders won’t live forever and once all these kids who like jeans, pop music and iPods grow up things are bound to change.

A war will certainly make things worse. Enough of our soldiers have died for nothing as it is.

If you want cheap the Hans Brinkler, it’s a real experience http://www.hans-brinker.com/

For upmarket you could stay at the Okura http://www.okura.nl/index.php?tmpl=mobile, a Japanese hotel out in the west

Or for really cool, hotel arena is an old converted nunnery.

The American is in the equivalent of Leicester square.

Not what you asked but….

heat will expand the rings and allow you to remove them with no cutting. They should also go back on quite easily with a bit of grease and a good whack with a wood mallet.

But don’t wobbly arms mean they are worn out?

Do it

Wireless syncing is brilliant and safari is more like the desktop version with tabs AND you can use 4 fingers to scroll though your open apps.

2. Going home
3. Moaping
4. Succumbing to drink/drugs
5. Turning to crime

do I have to do them in that order?

I’d like to do 4 then 4 then for then a bit of 3 then some 4 followed by a very little bit if 5 then lots more 4.

bsolutely. It’s the first step in recognising one’s limitations.

Ok what’s the next step?

I can’t whistle, manual, wheelie, bunny hop, surf, skate, dj, sing or dance but I manage to get by – just

Should I just give up?

We borrowed a Vito and took it on the M6 toll in both directions and were amazed we got charged same as a car.

Truly Truly amazed.

or the iphone 5 :D

Mars 3.0 for me as well had it for years now, it’s super tough and last ages and is bright as ***k as well.

If I had to replace it I’d get a mars 5.0 or a flare, but it’s not showing any signs of giving up.

The misunderstood question is this:

When you have bought enough media (music/apps/vids) to lock you into the platform. Do you want to have 1 supplier (Apple) or many?

Many people do not understand the meaning reason for openness. It’s about being able to decide what you what to do.

It’s not a question about many suppliers, its about using iTunes.

I buy music from many suppliers and have it all on my phone as for video all you need to do is convert it to .mp4 and it will load into iTunes and then onto your phone.

So your point about many suppliers is moot, your issue is with the application that manages the media.
