We do Early Riders they are fantastic, my son also has a Ridgeback Scoot very similar to the Rothan.

The new ASR7 isn't far off that 😉

Get the press on board, especially the tabloids as that are really keen on supporting the Forces. Approach your local BBC news desk and ask them about how they do 'interest' pieces.

Live tracking through a website is good too, our directors did it on their Red Grade Challenege.

Be proud to ride with you for a stage/leg.

Entered triathlons next year, not raced since I did a few nps xc rounds in about '98!
So I guess I'll be training properly, giving up the drink and eating a more balanced diet.

John Hauglan Rallying book a course with these chaps.

Best car I owned for driving in the snow was my 1200 Nova on 135 section tyres, the scariest is a tossup between an 1800 Sierra or a seriously tuned 1700 Chevette 😉

final bump

Bump

XX is alleged to be a stand alone groupset and not intended for use with other SRAM components.

Thats because you're pulling the bars rather than driving the bike through the trans.

Spectacularly failed troll.

Come on guys, stop provoking the strange man.

tri aero bars, shifters and brakes 🙂

The phrase 'You're barred' seems appropriate!

Enough now…..this is starting to get creepy.

Stw on many occasions has restored my faith in forums. The manwells thread for example, but its tempered by the likes of kaese.

Never mind that, we had someone it at the weekend on a Spesh Hardrock with Super Monster T's on it. Awesome!

Agent Provocateur done 😉

Agree with missingfrontallobe, Roslin is definately hot.

New as in the sense not the cheesy Dirk Benedict version. Its on Sky2 at the mo.

*bump*

Minimum labour charge a fiver? Bargain I reckon, stop complaining.

+1 for taxi drivers, we live near a fairly narrow street where cars park down one side. You can get 2 cars past each other with a little patience, but taxi drivers come hurtling through and try to force you over. Doesn't work with me I drive a 14yr old Nissan and am not that concerned about scraping it, boy do they get miffed when they have to slow down. 😈

Love mine, Cannondale now do them in a 'normal' size steerer too. Best thing is TF are now the service centre for them, but I have learnt to do my own – not difficult tbh. Mine are about 4.5yrs old and just have been the most durable forks I've ever run.

Flew BMI to the states as a Star Alliance booking, the facilities were superb and the crew were first rate. While there we flew with Ted internally again no issues. We had to change return flight because of a hurricane and wound up on some BA pos with goosed internal door seal where we were sat and no hot food, to be fair the cabin crew we were sat opposite (a Rochdale lass) couldn't do enough to for us and kept us supplied with brews all the way to Manchester.

Matrix and The Island car chases were pretty decent too.

Mojo or TF are very good.

I used to know a freelance engineer that worked on the F-22 project and has quite a high DoD security clearence. Once told me to compare whats flying now compared to the end of WW2 and there are things flying in Nevada that are a 100yrs ahead. If they do ever break cover is another issue totally.
Think of how long the Have Blue project took to go public and the B-2 Spirit as well as U2 and Blackbird, its no suprise that a force multilpier like Aurora is still classed deep black.

Heard that the opening of a new black section is imminent.

4 weeks injuries kept me off, its starting to get to me and make me REALLY grumpy. Should be training for triathlons next year, if I don't get out soon I might well loose my rag. Working at a trail centre makes it even worse, all these people out on their bikes having a good time. Hate them 😉

Forest Experience in Carno by Newtown in Mid-Wales, run by the Higgins family. Quite a handy bunch of drivers I hear 😉

Aurora is one of several deep black projects and does indeed exist.

Llandegla
Centre fully open. New trail being cut, with minor diversion at the endof the red. There are some more significant diversions in the week as the diggers are out working but as much as possible is opened for the weekend.

I'm home alone too, and ahve just realised my fave movies were lent to my niece's boyfriend. Pah really wanted to watch Apocalypse Now or Blade Runner 🙄

Bourne trilogy is really good.

+1 for Apocalypse Now.

Alan Carr. Yes I think we get it he's gay! Don't we?

Exactly.

Have both, prefer my singlespeed.

Blur Song2 or Nirvana's Smells like Teen Spirit. My ultimate had to be Manic Street Preachers La Tristesse Durera.

I know its contentious but someone must be buying the stuff for them to think its worth pinching in the first place.

Did you see my post about Cheshire police recovering some 300 stolen bikes from the Chester area? We work a lot with North wales police, they do take it seriously. You would be suprised how much work is actually going on behind the scenes currently.
