I use the Decathlon mass gainer after rides with a banana in.. Stops me from becoming 2D..

I do see bar ends and a full facer though..

Can we play guess the power station?

The Barrage D'Emosson?

Popularly thought of as the one off of Golden Eye but not. That's just over the border in Switzerland though..

I like power stations, that oil fired one that's never been used near Gourock is so sinister. It would be a perfect Bond villain's lair.

[quick google]

Inverkip, that's it..

What's up with those pedals? Anyone tried them?

To be honest we've had a fair amount of mud in southern Spain recently, the weather is better now though..

Oh dear me, I must be being a bit over sensitive then.. Perhaps my time of the month or somesuch..

Massive hijack>

Flamejob, you want to ride tomorrow? I'm testing out a new (to me) route above Mijas, will be leaving from Fuengirola or can meet you at Mijas.. Send me an email if you fancy it. I'm off out to ride after a very lazy morning

Apologies for shanghaiing the thread..

Is that at me? I did read the thread, honest, just thought I'd chuck my tuppence worth in. Sorry for going a bit off topic there then..

Some people have struggled out here with dual crowns getting round switchbacks.

I think dual crown trail forks would be an improvement, all the fore aft flex (on normal forks) has to be at the crown, surely..? I can see my pikes deflecting backwards on the trail (not a safe place to be looking while riding ;o) )

does the alarm go off when the infant starts playing with knives, kettle, moving cars, etc…

+1 to uplink, relative poverty is just a stupid idea.

Sorted.. Thanks.

certainly not late 80's, I think it may be a post Trek takeover Klein so not quite as exotic, nice all the same though..

hullo there.

Blood's a pretty bike, why not post a pic? Good icebreaker..

Thanks for that Grum, have registered myself and we'll see how it goes..

Yup, wrong forum, should be in chat forum, sorry..

Ollieu appears to be a French surname, give that combo a go..

French usually put their surname first and first name second, Faboice sounds like Fabrice..

[Edit] Fabrice is a pretty common 1st name, no idea about the other one..

Lose the reflectors though, school boy error..

Really nice colour scheme, a win over the usual stealth boredom.. Love it, orange and blue is a classic combo, gulf motorsport style.

I have a transition Dirtbag that I'm looking to get rid of.. 17.5'' email's in the profile..

That must be a record.. 26 minutes before a response, where are the holiday company guys? Do they take Fridays off?

I'd go for the Simple too, I reckon the colour would build up pretty nice with some brown and grey kit.. I do like brown though.

errr, people who say that tax is them being robbed by the government then say that any public expenditure is a waste of 'their' money..

My mate has a pixie blue one..

Hey Agreeable, nice looking trail! Where's that?

small ones look cooler though..

I miss mine, cracked chainstay.. It was fast.

Kokpelli, 2006 lake garda…

I know I put as many miles in as Doug :oP

I have size 12's and love my tioga MX's

You might want to order some extra pins with them as they could do with a few extra from the start..

[edit: had mine for 3 years now, using them 4 times a week, greased them up once and replaced missing pins]

nice and simple, I'd prefer silver/black hubs but very nice still..

'Oooooh special' love it..

The Coastal Crew bit (2nd post) is from Kranked 8, it's the best bit of MTB vid I've ever seen.

Yeah, weirwolves are pretty good, I think they come up pretty large too..

I'm less clever than all of you

2.4 Advantages.. Very roomy tyre, snow will be gone by the time the postie's out to deliver though surely?

Maybe not enough evidence or something? Sucks though.

There's something a bit ugly (for me) about Ibis Mojo's, the top of it doesn't look right, too tall.

Flamejob, you ride near Mijas eh? I do too, wanna ride sometime?

My poor old surly pre snappage..

Sniff.

Edukator, harsh man.

Not nice being the rejector or being rejected. It's been worse for me when I've had to reject someone than when I've been rejected. That's only after a year or so, not 'decades'..
