hope hubs and pikes? yep hit it with a mallet

cave is losing cool points in my book. especially with the mouser and receding dyed hair.

most belstaffs don't offer any protection, they are mainly to look like you've got a 1970's montesa that you plug around a muddy field with.

Hein gericke and akito good jackets fairly cheaply, i think you need to at least double your budget though.

jack nicholson is still in the running for me. i think Brad Pitt, Bob Mortimer, Jarvis Cocker & Noel Fielding are pretty cool too.

sorry nezbo if you've suffered all your life with this.

no it's gingers i can't abide.

you may have a point there simon.

3 5spots? Waht are you doing to them?

hope you get well soon derek and get back on your bike. Preventing apple coring may seem obvious to some, but it's well worth a reminder to others.

On the other hand don't be too sensitive and take a tittylip about the comments.Remember it's the internet and there's a lot of us fatties on here- however I don't think a seperate fatty forum would be the answer.

how cool is the guy in the mulletus one? he cooly pushed him away at least 5 times before slapping his chops 8)

'Not ruling out the ski holiday' 😆

Wherever you go, take me with you.

Where do you fancy going cupcake?

mmmmm Tunisia, do you know if there are good trails?

Not ruling out the ski holiday, however i'm planning one for end of Feb/March.

one of the few places I would definately move to.

what mike t23 said.

i would go for the nomad.

anything from back in the day.

oh sweet nuthin- Velvet Underground.
Good Night Irene- Robert Johnson
Tom Traubent Blues- Tom Waits.
I'm So lonesome I could cry- Hank Williams

the new one does have a passing resemblance to a nomad.

Lobby_dosser – the hole in the top-tube is the older frame and NOT the 08 575. As for the Yeti tribe no on has to join and it's basically a group of riders who have a liking to a brand of cycles-end of. In fact riders of other makes also meet up with them and it's only like a regular riding club anyway

Ah didn't know they had changed it. So can I change my post to

i wouldn't buy one because :-

* I don't trust the carbon knuckle thing on the seatstay.
* Association with the Yeti tribe or whatever it's called

I know you don't have to be a member of http://www.yetifan or go to tribe meetings, but it does put me off them. Same as HOG (Harley Owners Group) puts me off Harley Davidsons

i wouldn't buy one because :-
*I think they're pretty ugly especially the hole in the top tube.
* I don't trust the carbon knuckle thing on the seatstay.

yeah done the copy & paste special route. I was just wondering if the 'cracking software' or other option was quicker (i'm lazy that way :lol:)

berlingo= perfect SUV and occasional family car for me.

£25 per hour for a sparky? **** me that's cheap. Can you post his number so we can all use him.

took my crosser off road for the 1st time today (i'm a newbie to cross) and i must say it's starting to make sense*. i would've liked the top brakes but i think i managed ok without them.

* ssshh don't tell anyone

jim kerr of the simple minds. Like a dolls arm.

Jeezo what is it with you guys? pfft meeting up and riding bikes, i thought this forum was for political debate and arguments 😀

Looks like you had a hoot and a holler- nice one.

Put swampthings in the winter and then by the time the summer comes, they should be worn down into nice summer tyres.

I suprised that more people are not pulled by the fuzz for having unsafe loads or covering the brake lights/number plates. When you go somewhere like GT I'm surprised at the amount of people with 'illegal' rear racks .

was loading a thule roof carrier at innerleithan and I got talking to someone. I forgot to do up the pincer clamp fully. At the other side of peebles there was an almighty bang and my bike was dangling by my door hanging on with the two plastic wheel straps. Luckily no damage to my bike, but I put to cracking dents in the roof of my car.

Bike now goes in the back.

I see now. Does it work for cable discs too?

*awaits another humilition* 😀

*at the risk of being pointed at and ridiculed for eternity* does that mean the gear shifter/brake lever is only a gear shifter now? Or is there some splitter cable that allows you to use both levers as brakes? 😳

aye bananaguards are good until you take them through airline security. I always try and remember to keep a banana in it, it makes explaining it slightly easier.

i've got a belstaff panther antique brown leather if anyones interested in it.

i would

£18 quid for a bottle of becks in Hong Kong- i didn't know it was a hostess bar honest! Drank about the necks worth and left.
