@stevewhyte You’re (apparently) a teacher with the comprehension skills of a retard and one hell of a chip on your shoulder; I’m glad you won’t be teaching my children, you’re a disgrace.

I’ll be your husband

I just find it hard sometimes justifiying what i buy (and i am not rich by any definition) let alone someone who spends £250k on a car and then drives past people who canot afford decent food or struggle to heat their homes.

I spent more than £250k on a car once and didn’t feel the need to justify it to anyone. About £40k of that was VAT, not to mention the fact that I paid 40% tax on the money I earned to afford the car in the first place. Them’s the breaks.

Everyone who is rich has had very lucky breaks in one form or other, they would do well to remember that when they are patting themselves on their back and telling their mates how clever they are.

Yes luck is involved, but what is more prevalent is a strong work ethic and a willingness to take risks. Sometimes it works out ok, sometimes it doesn’t. I’ve lived in mansions and tents and the back of a transit van. Some people choose to bleat about inequality like a **** pussy on a bike forum instead of growing a pair of balls (bollocks?) though….

Edit I’m currently poor, having lost a load of money in a fund that didn’t mature as intended due to the financial crises of the last few years, so that should make you feel a bit better 🙄

lets say 5 times average earnings? thats nearly £150 000 pa. that would be enough for me. Riches I will never have.

Those are the breaks, don’t like it? Do something about it (other than threadshit incessantly on here about it)

Yes, strive to be mediocre.

Stop being a patronising twatheed RJ, at least for 10mins and give us peace.

Obviously hit a nerve, mission accomplished. It’s a shame you’re not capable of a more measured, coherent response but I guess you play the hand you’re dealt 😀

@ernie – I shop at Tesco

@stevewhyte – Oxfam is one of the charities I support

Look let’s cut to the chase, the issue here is some of you can’t stand the fact that some people have more money than you. It makes you furious and dents your fragile ego. The chip on your shoulder weighs more each day, knowing that there are people out there who are so loaded they can buy cars for a million pounds and not bat an eyelid.

You call these people names, question their morals, infer that they have small genitalia – because it makes you feel better about the way things turned out for you. Maybe you were unlucky, maybe you should have worked harder, who knows. Some people are richer than you. It is what it is so your impotent rage is just a waste of energy.

Think about and appreciate the privileges you are lucky to enjoy rather than envy those who have “more” than you.

The funny thing is it might not even be insured.

Oh how i pissed myself when i read that.

That says a lot about you

Yeah there are loads of DH tracks at FOD

@duckman we could do with a sarcasm emote – I was ribbing 🙂 I’m an unashamed capitalist pigdog who believes the best way to solve everything is to generate and then spend money – as much of it as possible.

@Bikepawl I think it’s more the glaring hypocrisy that people are taking the mickey about 🙂

And yet you’re happy to deny others the chance to own their own home, instead choosing to be a landlord.

And if one individual has £1.4 million to spunk on a car to get them from A to be B, then it certainly suggests to me that they have more than their fair share of society’s limited wealth.

Wealth is not a finite resource. 🙄

Anyway, supercars are awesome and if you disagree it’s because you’re a jealous bitter little man 😉

@project I don’t think a lot of supercars crash, but it’s usually bigger news than when some old vectra has a prang as it gives people the chance to roll out the old “ahahah that rich ass obviously can’t drive” line. Human nature I guess.

Why won’t you let someone out of a junction if they are in an expensive car? Sounds like a case of the ole green eyes and sour grapes to me…

sintered Hopes here

It’s a myth that fast expensive cars are owned by people who can’t drive or are compensating for something, I guess it makes those people seething with jealousy feel better about themselves 🙁

I have owned supercars, can drive well and have an average sized penis. I’m also single so hit me up if you want a good time fellas 🙂

Yes you can, do you think all of those Lithuanian, Latvian and Polish cars have valid insurance, tags etc? You can buy Latvian registration plates and documentation in at least one pub I know.

The best part is the people in my opinion.

721s here, I’m a fat biffer. They don’t seem too heavy

I tend to wear Mechanix or Oakley factory pilots

The IAM exists solely so its members can tell everyone they meet that they are members of the IAM.

ahahah fatty fat fat fats look at them

1: Steal their idea
2: Steal their customers
3: ?????
4: Profit

That’s what I would do

Surely a more reasonable explanation is that all bounced emails get automatically CCed to an administrator email alias, so the sysadmins can see when there might be potential issues?

Edit: Or is the OP saying that every email he/she sends is CCed to some other alias too?

It’s good that they’re noisy, it means the plebs on their lesser bikes can get out of your way when you’re hammering down the descent they are doddering down ;0

(in which case I’d suggest taking up knitting or something with no element of competition)?

Do you think you’re in competition with other riders?

I’d rather see my family smile than look smugly at the peasants from my shiny piece of overpriced German engineering

The two aren’t mutually exclusive you know.

Just pray to gods you haven’t got intercostal ruptures, I did mine and it took nearlky two years for the pain to go 🙁

When I lived in the states the groundsmen in my neighbourhood used to use some kind of predator urine extract to keep animals off the gardens, I think maybe it was Wolf.

Look the real reason that roadies don’t wear camelbaks is because their weedy, underdeveloped child-like upper bodies can’t support the weight.

Vauxhall Signum diesel? Kinda cool in a quirky way.

Yes I would second this, one of the most underrated cars out there, and they are pennies on the trader. Built in Germany too.

Am I the only one that finds constant referral to the rules irksome?

You’re clearly not a cyclist, merely someone who rides a bike.

I would argue that the footage from my contour is better using a class 10 card than my go pro, but the versatility of the gopro mounts (chest mount especially) means I end up using the gopro for filming MTB most of the time.

Spink’s guide probably doesn’t cover the etiquette for wearing McDonald’s badges rather than actual medals.

Same thing no?

with medals

Assuming your master router and dhcp server is at 192.168.0.1 open a command prompt and paste:

FOR /L %i in (1,1,255) do @ping -n 1 -w 100 192.168.0.%i | find “Reply”

Leave it a few minutes; The IP address of your TP-links will be one of those above.

I only come here to reinforce my sense of superiority. Think of it as the online equivalent of a trip to Asda, you can’t help but come away feeling better about yourself 🙂

Well I’m just someone else’s troll account so what does that make this argument you fools

@cookeaa say some more macho things, it’s really turning me on *swoon*
