I could probably do a 350?!? 😕

Just found my flat pedals, bike now in jump/play mode…

solamanda/fingerbike – could you two hucking dudes share guiding/sweeping duties of one group, pretty please?

Sounds good to me, just don't expect any backflips at the jumps or anything. 🙂

true, unless you use a spacer on the bb, run a 36/26 dual ring setup with an e-thirteen chaindevice which spaces it just enough for the chain to miss the bottom of the swingarm.

Swinley is owned by the crown estate not the Forestry, everything is rollable, has to be otherwise it gets flattened, nothing massive just some cheeky drops (not in the middle of any trails) and tabletops.

Aha, I've ridden with you before many a year ago. Where is Jesus these days?

Haha, look forward to an old(er) familiar face then.. 🙂

Jesus? He's currently driving around New Zealand in a Camper van.
Missing Swinley though, occasionally keep him updated on the condition of the trails… He will be back to tweak his trails soon no doubt…

A polished Kona Dudu? Yes I did… 8)

Hello, another local (lead a ride around swinley on tuesdays sometimes), don't mind leading or sweeping if needed. 🙂

Anyone? only have to give out a couple on invites each on here and theres enough to go around!?

Just been on resetfilms website and ordered, what i've seen looks good..

Home Trailer on YouTube

Never even heard of it until now, was it promoted much?
Looks good, I shall have to seek out and view…

Feel like i'm a bit late already…
Still if after all the others theres a spare invite:

Cheers…

ah, so officially only 2 spaces, what a load of ****…

funny that, theres a girl in an electric wheelchair that gets the same train, got a better excuse than me for taking up a little more space though…

Sometimes there is the bike space but not always, its sometimes got a shelf in its place for baggage, if its got the space I do use it…

hmm, theres a few people he should have kicked off then, been using the turbodiesel service between reading and guildford at different times for years without issue, always been that you put your bike on the side of the aisle where the door does not open… I think I might be singled out by the conductor for this now…

Delivery of a Road bike to get me out of using the train due in a few weeks so might be interesting until then…

and by all accounts Moon and District 9 although i've not seen them yet, all reviews have been promising

Two very good films, nightmare finding somewhere showing Moon but it was worth it. When you start to watch District 9 you might think it's going to be a lemon but it improves…

UP and Hurt Locker next on my list of new films…

Looks as if there may be some potential here.

Old review, but there doesn't seem to be anything new written about solid tyres so i'd avoid:

Friend has recommended batman, waiting for him to finish it so I can steal, same with Halo…

Went into Game a couple of days ago to preorder Modern warfare 2, staff in there went into quite a passionate sales pitch regarding Operation Flashpoint 2, hadn't even heard of it, watched a few vids today and it does look like it might be very good…

Lululemon available in Canada, USA, Australia and Japan..

I have Troy lee XC outers with endura bib liner….

Hello, Another swinley local here, flat pedals only group? I've led a couple of medium paced groups around before 😀

VR6; Love it…

All year round:
Maxxis Ignitor 2.1 Rear.
Maxxis High Roller 2.35 front.

Only seen a broken one in Les arcs, but they were the most popular bike brand there by far…

Daily Fail, what a surprise…

More to the point are those Rock Shox Mag 21 in that pic?!

Literally just finished watching the last episode of season 5, Sheeeeit, I want more, such a good show.

Didn't know who he was, so looked it up on wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Martin_%28chef%29

James Martin (born 30 June 1972 in Malton, North Yorkshire), is an English cock who first appeared on television in 1996. etc. etc.

Second the stiffer sole, used to always wear vans and got the same thing, now on 5 10s and dont have any problems…
Pedals, had Wellgo B25 for about 6 years now, never serviced, spin perfectly, never lost a pin…

I like that, really not a fan of long stems, like it twitchy, so the layback works…
Just need to shorten that brake hose and get a black zip tie on the forks… 🙂

Odd wheels, flat pedals, big forks and a jump seat, i'm wondering when the DH bike is going to come up for sale with xc forks, spuds etc.

Always used to go to Moguls for coffee and breakfast bagel and then go and sit by the gondola to eat always got asked for directions when sitting there for some reason…

Best sit down breakfast I had was at the Whistler Racquet Club.

Required lunchtime eateries would be Splitz for an amazing burger if thats your thing and Portobellos for a great toasted sandwich, dont get anything else from portobello though not too great with anything else for some reason…

As toddboy said, only had mine a week, pulled it apart and checked, soldering looks OK, plenty of thread on screw holding bracket on and no swarf in light. used once and its been fine, money was saved on battery pack and charger IMO, but not too bad…

Not possible to cut plug off as transformer is built into plug, bit like a mobile charger…

If it fits 🙂 Bell sweep XC, light comfy airy lid with a removable peak…

Bell Sweep XC, for XC night and day, Road and Commute (take the peak off for road)
And a Troy lee D2 full face for DH, although i've had it since 2003 so need to replace..

Did have a Giro Skyline spare lid but that was adopted by an ex and I never asked for it back…

The pic that alpin posted appears to be a (UK registered) mid eighties mk2 Golf for example

[pedantic]Looks like a mk1 golf cabriolet to me 🙂 [/pedantic]

I'd spend as much as you can on a U lock from someone like Kryptonite or Abus, don't really believe a bike is secure unless you run both a U lock through immoveable object, rear wheel and frame and a cable lock through everything… I have a kryponite mini evolution ulock and a cable lock, think I should have got the standard sized Kryptonite evolution as the mini is a bit too small sometimes…

Not bought anything recent but of the ones I bought a little while ago i'd go with Bioshock, If you haven't played it yet then i'd strongly suggest you do, awesome game IMO…

The Orange Box is also a bargain, get 4 good games; half life, half life 2 etc…

I got bored of COD WAW pretty quickly and went back to call of duty 4…

Must have been very recent as there wasn't a tree blocking on wednesday morning…

Swinley should be quiet enough on Monday, the Gorrick enduro is on Sunday so most will probably be sleeping come Monday…

Racing in a group of 4, although I should probably say riding not racing, never done one before, looking forward to it and apprehensive… 😀
