worth reading!!

Panaracer Fire XC Pro’s obviously. Duh!

you just like em for the pretty colours… i know your game. no point hiding your rainbow loving ways, we’ve all seen the photo of the onesie!

:lol: you forget i’ve been riding for a whole 5 months now and as they’re the only winter tyres i’ve tried then i must be correct.

apologies… i dont really drink anymore so my knowledge of the finer side of alcohol has been forgotten. have about 2 cans of beer every 2-3 months. although this satuday i’m going to be drinking as a friends back from canada after a year. i will not feel well on sunday… any tips on riding with a hangover?

not my thing personally… but i’m not the one getting the tattoo! if you like… you gets :) if you’re doubting it, then chances are you’ll doubt it even more once its permanently on your skin!

you haven’t been reading my threads then have you mr grumpywumps!

as much as i see the miserable stuff… there’s quite a few people:

(off the top of my head)
charliemungus
barnsleymitch
pook
TSY
torminalis
elfin (on a good day)
tazzy
muppetwrangler

and many more, who seem to be injecting humour into as many threads as possible :)

i only realised this when under the wise advise of mr yeti i decided to click on “chat forum” instead of “oveview” and started ignoring the bike side of it

mate does everything through Sky insurance, he has some ridiculously modded imports.

i slappa da bass

wtb prowler and wtb stout :D both 2.3 folding.

im amazed by the beauties, riding straight into the deep mud and puddles all the time and great traction on anything uphill :D

not that it was a serious question im guessing, but i’ve been waiting for a chance to mention my tyres for weeks haha

EDIT – whisky… this ride is going to be fantastic… just need some of the smokers from the “funny smelling cigarettes” to come along and we’ve got ourselves a party!

whats that? phils having a sexy party?

time for a tapestry.. where’s pook?!

awwwwwwww look what you’ve done!

muppetwranger… you please me.

i’ll be keeping an eye on you 8)

when i’m not about you’ll be watched carefully by either Torminalis or The Southern Yeti. if they’re busy then keep an eye out for barnsleymitch… he’s probably in your shed reading your old copies of readers wives.

awesome

why friday? is there a sexy party i dont know about?!

on my way buddy!!

well looky here… invited yourself along and then decided a dog policy for the whole group?!

tut tut ;)

:D thats cool, no dogs it is (can i still bring mrsconsequence?)

not really bringing dogs… :(

but have a look at the rough group size when a proper thread is started about it on the weekend and see if you think it’ll be too big… i personally would welcome doggies :D

might have to remember to mention its a possibility when constructing the thread as if anyones not a dog fan then its up to them to make a point of letting it be known early.. sound good?

also, note to everyone… i’m completely open to either sat or sunday, so start registering your preferences now :)

yeti, email me (should be in my profile) for awesome shark pictures

might even throw in a t-rex or a philosoraptor

still… i’ll bring the hunting dogs for a chuckle anyway.

on that note though… anybody know swinley well enough to maybe help suggest/point where to go next?

i’ve only been riding a bike for less than 6 months so it really hasnt been enough time to learn swinley properly, we tend to ride a similar route each time and pick out the odd bit if singletrack… but when i went out with the MTB Britain chaps they did a good 20k loop that linked singletrack up the whole way with nothing too technical :) was mighty impressive and only really used fireroads to hop into the next bit of singletrack or to stop and breath/chat/eat on.

i’m all up for collecting phone numbers, organising times, dress-codes, and punishments for lack of tweed and such but leading the way might leave the people who know the palce better a bit disappointed

sorry guys, didnt see the other replies…

umm yeah meet around 11:40 for 12o-clock start..

elfin and pete, of course you’re welcome to come :) its going to be an open invite i just haven’t done a proper thread about it (going to wait until sunday coming i think)

jsut a quick note to say that jsut ‘cos i’ve initiated this madness doesnt mean i’ll be leading the way! i was thinking as yeti has proved his endurance by doing that afan monster malarkey we set him off early, then using hunting dogs we follow them to chase him down.

any objections?!

good work old bean :) i gave in to temptation and weighed myself yesterday… turns out i’ve lost a stone

just gotta keep cracking now, sticking with the healthier eating over christmas will be my biggest challenge

imagine if there was a “STW Funny Smelling Smoke Ride”…

the race to the cafe would be hilarious

why thank you :) made me chuckle as i listened to it on the radio this morning

can you prove time exists? i think there’s no such thing as time and in fact the world is governed by angry bees made of tweed… prove me wrong!

funny smelling ones… you mean old holburn and such?

jessica alba or natalie portman…. failing that a t-rex or great white shark.

yup, it even lists the 8 holidays!

i’m not too fussed to be honest, i’ll take it off and accept a telling off if he notices/cares… most likely just get told to make up the hours as it was a misunderstanding.

if your contract states you get the normal 8 bank holidays off, do they have to honour camerons jolly holiday? or would it be entirely up to the employer as the contract states 8 days not 8 days plus more if the government decides so?

i only ask such a dumb queston as i’m pretty certain my boss will find anyway he can to make people work it

tie-die onsie…. i bet you thought you’d win with that didnt you?!

well HAHAAAA!! even TSY cant beat my new choice!

when i go out i like to do things properly…. expect to see me wearing this delightful get-up for our swinley group ride.

i swallow 3 powerbands a day, one with breakfast, lunch and dinner.

(vit c if i think i’ve got a cold coming.. occasonally a berroca if i havent been eating well due to illness…. keep thinking about fishy oils but never motivated enough to bother buying)

finally :) a bite, now i can give up and admit i think that dog walker sounds like an idiot…. i especially like the reply about needing to clear dog eggs off the tracks :D

sounds like a well organised day! lots of riders and lots of separate catagories to ride in :)

oldest in the world you can actually touch – about 2 billion years old

8O

that’s almost as old as barnsleymitch!

why are you asking why?

ohhh grahamS you’ve jsut excited my brain, i like that idea.. can it be developed so the ripples created by other people and your own actions during life effect the wave of other peoples lives?

why should he have to?

jsut watched that AP clip… there isnt a single outfit he wears that would be out of place at a smart-with a hint of-casual affair.

please, please, do copy AP.

back of the net.

yeah seen the calendar year thing used a few times too… i like yours, much easier to work out stuff on too :)

well done sir, if i were there i’d give you a hardy slap on the back

i agree with him to be honest… its disgusting how they think they own the place and have the right to just block off parts.

same gos for when they close off roads for races and marathons etc… what about my right to travel somewhere?!

with the other hand… i’d recommend either using it to sip martini or hold the gag in place. all depends on how willing your participant is

The Southern Yeti – Member
Cheers emsz :lol:. Luckily I’ve learnt that by 25!

What I’d really like to know is – EDITED BY THE MODERATORS

easy mate…. the trick is getting in right up to the elbow, trust me you’ll know when you get hold of it… hold firmly and get them to hold their breath as you twist clockwise.

HTH
