BT here, no problems apart from the odd drop out, with wireless hub and a powerline ethernet adapter which works well. Next door have Virgin on occasions no bb for days – shocking.

@ flange100 – it’s sounds like you’re hurting inside, do you want to talk about it?

You sure they weren’t Jason’s Doner Vans? A nice kebab to warm you up.

@ flange100 – not really, a lot of people lives have been saved or improved in the UK not just Africa.

Wow, bit different to the small independent bike shop down the road.

:idea: I know, I’ll see how controversial I can be.

He’s lights fuse then waits for ignition from a safe distance…

…keep YOUR money in your pocket then, god this forum if full of grumpy ****.

I forgot about the mindless bitching on forums :lol:
bicker bicker

Luke Vibert Hardcore/Jungle/DnB mix
Bangface

@ chutney13 – totally agree – mnml.nl has some good mixes too

I was bored with music for a while so started listening to podcasts, bbc joy of six and guardian music weekly.

Been listening to a lot of Tame Impala lately too

Oh, and aparently the beatles are available on itunes now :idea:

Good for the mind, body and soul, it’s varied too, it’s the closet thing to ski-ing, pure escapism from the day to day.

Nah, plenty of room for everyone, people need to relax, we’re all doing it for the same reason.

There is a lot of challenging stuff over on Leith on the east face

Sssssshhhhhhh!

@ poisonspider – interesting, so jerky is just dried

Yes, but only smoked tea duck breast, it was amazing, had to do it outside on a bbq though, lot’s of smoke. I assume jerky is cured aswell and then smoked over a very long period 24hrs +

It’s pretty flat and it’ll very muddy. I’d head for South Downs or Friston Forest if you’re in that area.

It does seems odd, were you on your iphone typing this blog at the time? Do you look famous?

Thanks for sharing, had a little nose around your illustrations too, very nice, now bookmarked, I’m a graphics/motion designer.

:lol:

You’ve just put me off my dinner.

@stratobiker – well good for you, you’re the only one. Dogs smell and then they smell and lick other smelly things, and then they lick your face, mmmm nice.

I’m with the Koreans to be honest. Too many sloppy dogs eggs on the trails.

Just caught the end, what a breath of fresh air – top bloke – series recorded straight away.

My thoughts exactly, getting 30p for some and £3 for others. Not bad.

16 miles each way

I’m very tempted, just recovery from a broken collarbone and wrist, don’t want to go through that again.

I’ve got a 2010 514 and love it, would of got a 714 if I could of at the time. Go for it.

Off with fractured scaphoid fix with bone graft and screw, and I’ve just had a plate removed from my collarbone. I think the worse thing is the side effects of all the codeine, I’ll spare the details.

running formula r1’s, lost a few lever bolts, otherwise very powerful and light.

I’m also out of action until April, goes with the sport I’m afraid.

am40’s are now discontinued so be quick

Just fitted the Easton Haven Carbon 11’s, not had chance to test them yet, incredibly light though.

Thread closed. For those who are interested there’s another thread about mt bikers and backpacks. The helmet debate will be starting at 2.00 and the RLJ’s at 10.00 Monday morning just after the morning commute.

Just had my collarbone plate removed so it’s reading this site and watching lifecycles for me.

Oh, and being a tad grumpy.

God, this one gets debated at least once a month, more than helmets and rlj’s. Just do what you want.

TheArtistFormerlyKnownAsSTR – that’s what I’m talking about!

Sorry your picture is your worst defence

Fish in two slices of potato, sounds more like a northern fishy starch sandwich – yuk!
Crumbed fish, mash, parsley in golden breadcrumbs, homemade tartar sauce and a crisp glass of sauvignon blanc – yum!

I’m running tubeless Bonty Mud X’s on my Zesty AM with 140 mm, and it climbs pretty fast, will never be a XC whippet though. Start with the tyres.

What even over at Redlands and Leith?

Nirvana rides are free, the 11.00 sunday ride I went on was very fast and technical. Great fun though.
