I sent my dads new computer back to John Lewis and swapped it for the latest imac. Windows 8 a hateful thing. Even the technician said so. Full of bugs and needed another 12 months beta testing before release. Windows 9 is on its way

If anyone has a spare one then I’d buy it with a smile. My order was apparently cancelled – not by me

Anyone kind enough pls email me on richardbown@me.com

I like the 661 d30 for comfort but over time the elastic stretches so they start to slide

I put it on the smallest sprockets both front & back and remove enough links to pull the derailleur from the default sprung position

Does that make sense?

Rx’s are the best things on my shockingly expensive bike

Carter usm ….

A poor three times

I’m shocked! I’ve bought several pricey earphones from them over 10 years and have always been fantastic with returns.

Go get em’ cowboy

IME amazon are brilliant at returns (and evading tax returns). Hit them up and you’ll be pleased

druidh – Or, perhaps more accurately…
If 10 suspected car thieves were told they’d be immune from prosecution if they testified that I was a car thief…..

Your either not aware of the full story

Also see post above about other none drug takers also witnesses.

or you are being biased with your opinions

The greatape – well so far it’s 75% of this forum believe LA is a liar and a bully with no place in modern sport. 25% would walk over hot coals to spend a night with said lair and bully no matter what witnesses will say

If I broke into a car and 10 people saw me and gave evidence I would be convicted. This doesnt seem to the deity we call Lance Armstrong and his drug taking

There is a theory that a sports scientist has written that I dare not mention as its a very sensitive subject but it involves the cancer he beat. I won’t post the link because it’s a very sticky subject that I refuse to be associated with (in case I offend someone)

I’m so pleased I posted this thread up now. I will respond very shorty, but as most of us sat here at work

Thanks for the heartfelt replys. It means so bloody much I can’t begin to tell you

Morning 1 Shed, heckler and MicArms

Senco have advised they have had no other autistic child go through this particular school and will monitor his schooling. I have found them distant and bureaucratic but maybe it cos I’m hyper sensitive to his needs, over protective if you like

I have sent rob an email and it would be nice to liase with you too. It’s always good to know I’m not on my own with my son

Thanks guys

Your right Rob, they don’t see any problems with sending him to mainstream which is positive. I live some distance from his school. She lives in Sheffield, I live in Nottingham. With the economy in such a state it seem the first things that are cut are the very things that keeps the fabric of society for the needy hence no budget for a teaching assistant

I do console myself if it all goes wrong then I will fight tooth and nail for a change to a more suitable school. It’s just the fears of this event in less that a week

I wish I could take his place. Tearing up just thinking about it

Well Chief it seems we have similar stories. I split from his mum 10 years ago and also have him every weekend (and every school holiday including the whole six weeks summer) but I must confess I haven’t spoken to anyone about a change of schooling. After much discussion with my wife and parents we believe(d) mainstream would be the best as we want him to fit it the best we can. I’m not saying its the right decision but the one we thought would give him the best chance to lead a normal life

He has 2 private tutors and they think he’s the sweetest boy alive. He does struggle with learning and we are trying to rectify that best we can, it’s the part I have no control over that scares me

Pleased your boy is in a decent place and biking too 🙂 I have tried to get him into it but he’s seen some of my injuries and that seems to have put the fear of god into bikes for him

Thanks for your reply mate

Thanks Diane

He will be moving with a few friends but as communication becomes more important (ie as they get older) he then seems to get pushed further and further out. He had a permanent teachers assistant at the old school but his new school can’t afford one. His new teacher and head is aware of the problems, and I have faith they will be wonderful, but that isn’t making me sleep easier.

He yeans to be accepted but isn’t and as he gets older he knows he’s different. A common trait of autism is seclusion, they want to be on their own but he doesn’t, couple that with his extreme sensitivity and I’m a quivering wreck

I use a fizik gobi and don’t really get along with it. Its nice and wide/long with sufficient padding and flex (as well as expensive) its just a little ….. dead? Makes no sense, just my opinion of course

My iPhone does just that with the right app for DAB

Giving to cancer charities is fantastic. Didnt mean to sound flippant

Armstrong came 2nd in a mountain bike race today and donations are up by 20% on Lance’s website

That makes me sad

My bestest mtb purchase bar none are endura singletrack shorts. Water resistant, strong, slim and stylish. You won’t regret it

The man who would never give up … gave up

Gotta be a t-shirt in there

It’s threads like these that make me love stw

For fear of being prosecuted over something that someone finds offensive I dare not. Freedom of speech seems to not apply on certain formats

Why cant people accept that others have a different opinion to yourself?

Because its blind ignorance that Armstrong needs to keep the cash rolling in and the luvies to continue slapping his hiney in joyful success

Had it for 18 months whilst attending uni. I was in a agony, medication wouldn’t touch it without morphine. It just magically disappeared although it does twinge every so often

Healing vibes bro

What’s so special about this saddle that it’s worth having but can’t be ridden in the wet

+1

Sand the floor (circular motion)

Paint the fence (good clean strokes)

You’ll be a bad ass if you do it properly

It worked for DANIEL-SAN!

Can someone please supply a link so I can listen to that talksport discussion. Can’t find it. Thanks

I’m starting to despise Mr Armstrong, shame as its his stance (not the drug taking) that has caused this reaction

^ boo

I’ve got two bookcases full of crap but it’s loveable crap

You put a smile on my face 🙂

A rubbing disk caused you to cut through your finger? What do you use? I just use an Allen key?

Whatever happened speedy recovery to you and your bro (especially your bro as that sounds real nasty)

My opinion is just my opinion

Logic audio – fantastic

Pro tools – what the industry uses

Apple have bought both copyrights so need a mac to run. IMO everything else is for bedroom dj’s

(I think) a total of 9 witnesses was going to take the stand against him. Above is just 3 of them

3 whistle blowers –

The journalist
“I wrote four books about the guy. All the evidence was out there since 2004 and people will still say there is no evidence. To me there was a wilful conspiracy on the part of sporting officials, journalists, broadcasters, everybody. Now we see the fruits of it: high-level cycling has been destroyed by corruption.
“I would have preferred it if Lance Armstrong had gone to a tribunal and we would have had all the evidence out there. But he has decided to accept these charges because it was the lesser of two evils from his perspective.
“It is not good for him because he has been stripped of his seven Tour de France titles and has been given a lifetime ban. He has lost every victory he has had since 1998, but the alternative was even worse – to have a tribunal in which the evidence from 10 former team-mates who all say they saw him doping would have been aired in graphic detail.
“That detail would have portrayed Lance Armstrong as a doper. It would have opened the eyes of the public to what the US Anti-Doping Agency believe was one of the greatest, most sophisticated doping conspiracies in the history of sport.
“How did Armstrong get away with this for all these years? Who was complicit in helping him avoid detection? Because there is one certainty – he did not do this without help.
“Bradley Wiggins is the patron of the Tour and the whole sport. As the winner, he is the spiritual and almost moral leader of the peloton. As an anti-doping Tour winner, I would expect Bradley to say this is good for the sport … we want the guys who cheated to be outed, but there is not a lot of that coming from the sport and that makes me wonder if they are truly committed to cleaning themselves up.”
David Walsh, author and sportswriter on the Sunday Times, has written four books on Lance Armstrong. He was speaking to BBC Radio 5 on Friday

The masseuse
As Lance Armstrong’s masseuse, Emma O’ Reilly saw much of the cyclist’s body and spent a lot of time with him after his races. She was also a key member of the US Postal cycling team during the 1999 Tour de France and was given important tasks.
O’Reilly was a source for David Walsh’s book about Armstrong, LA Confidentiel. According to the book, O’Reilly said she heard team officials worrying about Armstrong’s positive test for steroids during the Tour. She said: “They were in a panic, saying: ‘What are we going to do? What are we going to do?’?”
Their solution was to get one of their compliant doctors to issue a pre-dated prescription for a steroid-based ointment to combat saddle sores. O’Reilly said she would have known if Armstrong had saddle sores as she would have administered any treatment for it.
O’Reilly said that Armstrong told her: “Now, Emma, you know enough to bring me down.” O’Reilly said on other occasions she was asked to dispose of used syringes for Armstrong and pick up strange parcels for the team.
In a letter to Bill Strickland, a Bicycling magazine correspondent, last year, O’Reilly described her experience. “Since I spoke to David Walsh, I have received so many subpoenas that the policewoman who brought them got friendly enough with my boyfriend that she would call before coming and he’d put the kettle on for her.
“If my word is so worthless, why did I go to France and testify to the French drug squad? I worked the ’98 Tour de France, and I know how scary these guys can be, yet I was prepared to go to France, to their territory. I went because I was telling the truth, and also because a certain Mr Armstrong sued me for a million euros because of my interview with David … why did Lance feel the need to terrorise me for more than two years? Why did Lance feel the need to try to break me?”

The cyclist
Christophe Bassons became an accidental star of road cycling when he was the only member of the notorious Festina team who was not implicated in drug-taking. His reputation as an honest cyclist made it impossible for him to prosper in the world of professional cycling in the 1990s.
Festina was immersed in scandal in 1998 when a carload of drugs for the team was discovered. In the subsequent police investigation, Bassons was the one rider who emerged with his character enhanced after his team-mates told police that he was the only cyclist who did not take drugs.
From obscurity, Bassons emerged as one of the few cyclists who would criticise drug-taking in the sport. He spoke for many when he complained that the sport had “two speeds”, one for the drug-takers and one for people like who him who did not cheat.
During the 1999 Tour de France Bassons was asked to write a column for the newspaper, Le Parisen. The Tour featured the return of Lance Armstrong after his battle with cancer. Basson wrote that the riders were shocked by the speed of Armstrong. Armstrong later cycled up to Bassons to remonstrate with him and encouraged him to leave the Tour. Later on French TV, Armstrong admitted the conversation. “His accusations aren’t good for cycling, for his team, for me, for anybody. If he thinks cycling works like that, he’s wrong and he would be better off going home,” he said.
Other riders threatened him and most ignored him. Bassons could not take the pressure and left the Tour.
Bassons tried to race elsewhere but his reputation preceded him and he gave up in 2001. The cyclist had been a very successful amateur rider but his professional career was overshadowed by his refusal to take drugs and remain quiet about it. He now works for the French ministry of sports and youth, with responsibility for drug testing.
