Yeah chainsaw out of a shark!!!! That’s a movie scene classic!!! So bad it’s ace

I found Giant’s customer service to be amazing!! They sent me free stuff to help me out when it had been my ham fistery that has caused it!!!

The Elite custom ones do the job or the Tacx Tao

Katec is kasae. I got my trance bearings from mtbbearings. They are proper job.

I’d be miffed. If they need extra parking, buy somewhere with enough parking 🙂 some people are inconsiderate gits, it’s your land tell them to bog off 😀

By eck!! It’s like Grant and Phil Mitchell have been kidnapped and held hostage in her dress!! Smashing!

I have to say those new Deore brakes are astoundingly good. I personally don’t feel the need for anything more “bling” the x5 stuff on my bike is shit though. That will get the deore treatment when it dies.

I predict a hospital thread in the future 😉 nah you’ll be reet.

Just had a look on creation and found this. citizen me like that.

I’d forgotten about Swatch! Not all of us are minted and/or want to spend oodles of cash on a watch. So ner 😉

Lol cheers.

I saw beerbabe at the start and thought AWESOME!!

Mr Beerbiker I was the guy who called you a legend in the latter half of the race (may have had my RAF kit on them can’t remember lol) that bike looke ace fun.

Johnny was yours the green spearfish? If so, I was looking at it with much envy. I really want one.

I personally reckon that the carbon spark 29er is the perfect bike. I had a decent demo of one and that twin loc system is brilliant. My mate used one for mayhem and he had a great time on it.
However I ride a steel 29er El Mariachi for this kind of stuff as I’m poor 🙂

Ice bath (sit in an empty bath and run the cold til it covers your legs and stay put for 10mins) foam roll and stretch.
Get enough sleep and eat well.

They get bloody annoying when mounted on your helmet (I’m not talking the bedroom mount). We bought one for our club and it’s hardly been used.

Sounds epic!! Are there any pics (me love the pics)

I’ve got me heels on.

Terrible news 🙁 my thoughts go out to his family and friends. Be careful out there guys.

Looking forward to seeing some pics 🙂

The last female zombie had it going on 😉

Ouch to your arm dude! Hope you mend up well. I didn’t really witness any cock endery. I did feel bad as I was having a bad time and a lass lets pass and I never said ta. What made it worse was she said you’re welcome. Felt a douche after that.

I’m still here 🙂 too far to travel broken :p you sumo guys are nuts. And mr singlespeeder isn’t human!!

Cheers 🙂 I’m no 61 and will mostly be looking like a broken man lol.

Well it’s still dry here. I’m 11 laps in solo and I am hurting from a few spills (is there a sweet pressure spot on geax saguaros?)I’m going to limp it round until I drop or the race finishes lol. Overall it’s a bloody great event!!!

I hope it’s a dry’un as I am not in the mood or a pooh course aftery stressful bike maint day!!

It’s not allowed to rain spectacularly. I am due a dry event.

Are skoda roomsters in that price range now?? They are quite adaptable.

Lol that’s up there with the knob head who tried to sue me when I was 8 after he had knocked me off my bike!! It actually went to a court type thing! Some people are bloody idiots.

I’d help someone out if they wanted my help. I wouldn’t gve up a tube as I only carry the one.
I haz the skillz to fix stuff so why not help someone struggling. Show them the art of the knotted innertube as a bodge to get home.

Ill have to get one 😀

24 solo here, I’ll be either in black and baby vomit yellow lycra or RAF lycra on a green Salsa El Mariachi 🙂 I’m on my own and it’s my birthday on the Sunday, so all heckling is appreciated 🙂

I have some avid single digit 5 vees with digit 7 levers if you’re interested.

I’m doing the North West one in Oct. It’s my first one and I can’t wait 🙂

Fingers crossed they have the details!! I ordered them for mayhem and they had no record of me ordering lol (I wasn’t the only one).
However, I will be ordering some for this race as well. Their pads are good 🙂

Yup had a look at the bottom bracket and it’s borked!
Ordered a new one.

I’m wondering if the drive side is exerting the pressure. I wonder if putting an o ring on to sit it slightly away from the top hat may work?

I own a 29er ht and demoed a Scott Scale 27.5 the other day. It felt no different to 26″ IMHO. 29er I noticed straight away and thought WOW! 27.5 left me feeling meh, there’s no real difference that I can see. As I said all IMHO.

Still quite an achievement to be shorter than Nick
Craig though!

he was in heels 😀
