Bugger!!! :twisted:

Wear mine most the time except when swimming/surfing.

Looks like I’ve been kicked off the league.

No one to my knowledge has been kicked off the league.

Found me, I’m off the bottom. :D

That “lump” 10km from the finish may be a problem?

Looks like I’ve been kicked off the league. :(

Fair play to Stuart Pearce for taking an unpopular decision with the rest of country. I don’t think Beckham should have been picked, in fact I don’t think he was that good an international player. Okay, passing and dead-ball situations he was the go-to man, but how many tournaments did he single-handedly manage to put us on the back foot?

At least 2 world cups IIRC.

Give Will Killeen a listen…very good.

Definately recommend Wilbur.

Croyde is a good base – Croyde is fun until it gets too big, when that happens head round the corner to Saunton for a lower more manageable wave.

If it gets a blown out mess at Croyde head for Putsborough at high-tide for a cleaner wave.

Or an alternative – The Gower – stay at Llangennith Hill End Camp site, beach over the dunes, plenty of alternative beaches around to suit your ability, great riding too boot.

with Jimster`s Jinkers bringing up the rear on a waiting-for-the-mountains 64 points.

We’ve got the strongest team in the league – we’re holding everyone else up!! :lol:

What Cougar said!!

Best role Jason has ever played.

John Thaw – Inspector Morse

As mentioned on here before, head high – the chavs don’t do altitude, unless you head out into the country.

We do have the Nags here too, always nice to stop off for a pint of something-or-other after a blast on the hills. :D

TBH I haven’t had alot of aggro with walkers on the hills (famous last words) worth mentioning, and if it does happen just be courteous in replying to them – confuses the **** out of them. :lol:

In!!

I have the same problem with my butler – I only get the scrappings from the Lasagne dish. :twisted:

All sounds quite minor, look on the bright side –

1. Fall down a flight of stairs at work. Battered and bruised today.

You to blame? Health & Safety claim, new bike. :-)

2. Give me and Mrs North food poisoning from the quinoa and courgette thing I;d cooked the night before.

She won’t trust you cooking her meals again!! :D :D

I take it that’s a no then?

Hoping these two days on sun might help!

No this is just the weather gods toying with your emotions.

I think the press are apethetic towards Euro 2012 because of the following –

a) England have a new manager in Roy Hodgson.
b) He’s inherited Capello’s team.
c) The press would’ve loved to have seen how they’d with Stuart “I’m English & Proud” Pearce would’ve got on.
d) The Olympic’s are on.

Do you need a special tool for the missing links – talking 9 speed here – or can you just ease them loose like the SRAM powerlink?

Certainly could have some fun there. 8O

Takes my mmind off work, which isn’t that bad.

Depends on whether I have to pop to Morrison’s on the way to work.

Due to come into Malvern around 8.44 on Friday, just in time with going to work.

Any takers?

For a moment there I thought there had been a wine cellar disaster

I thought there’d been a rave over Castlemorton again and they’d broke into the cellar.

All the best to the little ‘un.

Mostly on my own these days, when I started out very rarely – always had a nagging doubt in my mind, god I’ve missed out on some rides.

Always make sure Mrs knows where I’m going and carry a mobile.

Be the Malvern Hills Hotel, the do Black Pear there. :D

If the weather’s that bad, you’ll get the hills to yourself. :D

Have a look on Back-On-Track for an idea of routes, there is also a couple/three routes in the Trail Guide section at the top of this page.

Ex-Worcester here, emigrated to Malvern, the flat bit, nice view of the Clock Tower from my bedroom window however.

I thought it was compulsory to have your bike upside down when the obligatory “Woodpile” photo is taken?

Matt: they are posting the route on the site… as you say there are a number of really nice descents in that area – sufficient material for 100 mile event

That’ll be interesting…

I’m curious about this shin-dig.

Anyone have any ideas where the route will go and will it include any old family favourites? I know you can’t say too much, but I’m just curious. :?

I heard the last album, thought Mr Peart seems to have mojo with regards lyric writing….

“I hear what you’re saying”

Usual management w**k, which should be followed up with “I’m going to do chuff all about it” :twisted:

If you can take the hit – order the cheaper frame and send the original back.

If not, put it down to one of life lesson’s and enjoy the ride.

*wonder if the Co-op will give me the difference between the loaf of bread i bought at £1.40 and the discounted loaf 2 hours later of 60p…

Ordered, but just saw the discount code – BUGGER!!!! :evil:

should be OK, the tories don’t have any other scandals to bury this week by causing a panic do they?

That we know of.

Ah well, the old codger in Morrison’s had the right idea as he was filling up five 5 litre drums and his car with petrol. :?

I’m off now!!

I guess unless they have money up front they get very jittery with current state of the nation’s finances.

It does seem very premature to consider cancelling events considering it’s 3 or 4 months away to expect such a financial commitment from participants.

Jimster I think you’ll find Def Leppard were the support band … remember who headlined????

No they were the Headline act on the “Through the night tour” supported by Witchfynde – 1980 not 79 as previously quoted. :oops:

I really oughta start going back down there again, so much good riding to be had.

Def Leppard, Malvern Winter Gardens 1979

Best – Rush Brum Odeon 1980 or U2 Cork 1993, saw them a couple of weeks earlier and they did a live link with Sarajevo, ok he wanted to get a point across but please – dropped it for Cork and were excellent.

Worse – U2 1997(ish) Popmart tour at Wembley, boring.
