met Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers – complete bell end

the guy from Crystal Maze Richard O'Brien – top chap

I often see Bob from Emmerdale out jogging when I'm out on my bike, keep meaning to get a photo

Tignes is good for snow

Not as pretty as some resorts due to it being above the tree line, but guaranteed snow, and thats what you are going for

nobody know of any websites with french trails?

2008 Patriot with coil lyriks

I'm only about 11.5 stone too

Although I must admit I've never done more than 4 hours on it

got a desire this week and love it

currently trying to prise it out of my girlfriends hands

tree section at 3:40 is ridiculous

I had to move a few around the shooting cabin and kinder reservoir last week 👿

morewood shova?

you should buy my 2008 patriot

its a beauty

£1250 and its yours 😉

Had a 750 Go which was a month old and it wasn't charging fully or holding a charge for long

Contacted tomtom and they sent me packaging to send it back and I got a new one within around 3 days

dont like exercise first thing in the morning

i'm convinced its no good for you 😉

Steven Malkmus

Kim Deal

John McCrea

I use pitrok

the aluminium in normal deodorant blocks the pores and causes me painful armpit lumps

not had any with pitrok

try here

yellow safety glasses

about £3

I keep thinking about getting some MK's but the reviews are confusing

some people love them, and some say they are the worst tyre ever

where you going to put the engine?

As long as there is snow you're going to love it!

try here

I don't understand that Brain Lopes graph at all

I'll second cobbles

was trying to get up a hill the other day and ended up sliding backwards

banks still seem to be doing fine

wasn't it the bankers that got us here in the first place?

my cousin has been offered a £85000 a year job at Barclays, I'm seeing jobs in my field drop to wages that are lower than what I was on at 18 with no training

takes the piss

I've had it on e-bay a few times but always ended up taking it off as I'm not paying e-bay £60 or whatever it is they want to list it with a reserve

Its such a nice bike, and I really don't want to sell it, but needs must

I worked out what the bike would cost to build up from used parts and its still more than what I'm asking, and I have built it using a complete new drivetrain, front and rear mechs, chainset, cassette, shifters, handlebars, grips, seatpost, goodridge shifter cables, pedals, saddle…

hopefully someone will see its not the usual hammered, 6 year old patriot you see on e-bay

I'm having the same trouble selling my Patriot

people want a bike thats worth a few grand for £300 😕

I use bridgedale walking socks when its dry, and sealskins if its wet

bridgedales are awesome, they last forever

I didn't fall off yesterday, which is a first

my Patriot has me trying stuff that I'd usually chicken out of

a lot of it has to do with my mood on the day though

just don't start it at 7.30 in the morning, like the guy that lives across the road from me

bongo thats an awesome vid

where abouts is that? Yorkshire?

Wiggle are awesome with regards to customer service

I bought a saddlebag from them a few years ago and the first ride out it managed to work its way open and I lost all my tools

They replaced the saddlebag with a different make, and gave me £50 of vouchers for my lost tools

I'll always use them from now on, whenever possible

almost forgot

when trimming gear cable with wire snips, don't turn the cable so thats its pointing directly at your eye

otherwise you will spend a full afternoon at the eye hospital having a doctor jabbing around with a needle trying to get all the shit out

when riding a raleigh chopper, don't look down at the gearstick when pedalling uphill

you will ride into the back of a very solid morris minor

sssimon thats a lovely bike

who makes it?

looks like I'm too old then 🙁

I'm not going to name them on here as its someone's livelihood, and I know all too well what its like to be out of work, but I phoned them 4 times to get me a price for a spring for a set of forks, and they never got back to me about it.

I have had a few other issues with them too when trying to buy a saddle and some waterproof clothing. Shocking service, especially as every time I have been in there he's sat down reading or surfing the internet

a certain shop in the Peak District who sells nice bikes has lost my custom by having a can't be arsed attitude

I have a shop nearer that is good for repairs and servicing and he's a nice chap, he just doesn't sell much stuff that I want

Why do some people hate Mountain Kings and others say they're the best thing in the World?

are they using completely different tyres?

leffe is awesome, might get to tescos tomorrow
