2 men on a bridge above a river……

1st man attaches a Parrot to each arm and shoulder and jumps off! BIG splash, allmost dies but makes it back to the river bank…

2nd man attaches a budgie to each arm and shoulder and jumps off! BIG splash, allmost dies but makes it to the river bank….

1 st man says " dont recon much to this PARROT gliding"….
2nd man says "this BUDGIE jumping is crap as well……

😉 😛

Soory 😳

I have just realised the height gain :!:……EVEN BETTER effort mate 😛

Ton getting involved with tts…well i never! 😉

Thats a quality effort though……Our 25 course is`nt flat and my best was 58…something(10 years ago)…

Well done 😛

Sadly no longer with me 😥

I bet they were Jack Russels….I hate them (and i like dogs).

You have nothing to feel guilty about as you are not in the wrong. Don`t pay the £95 vet bill as the other dogs were in the wrong and out of controll. As for the girl mouthing off as well, she owes you an appology.

Cycling weekly/ e-bay.

I Like my new 1 and looking forward to getting it built.

As mentioned earlier,

Ullock Pike off Skiddaw (cheeky)
Hob Carton End Grizedale Pike
Section after HB Hill, Kirroughtree.

😛

Well done mate and it will get easier and faster the more you do. 😆

Hey crazy legs,

Which Dolan is that? carbon ?

You go and buy something like this 😆

I was the opposite to you Trail rat, i have speed but don`t have massive lungs and when i once tried a HRM i found my peak was 220 😯

You are right about Stealths not coming round too often.

I ended up buying the Ridley new from the States and it was £900 cheaper than in this country, even with a hefty import tax.
Same with the wheels, £400 cheaper.

There is no contest!

I used to ave 27 on a standard road frame with clip ons…. This new one should improve things or maybe i`ll be too old 😉

Its 10 years since i did a tt and this should get me back into it.

All you have to do is keep going and you`ll be fine. You may find the miles pass quicker than you think…. 😉

Borrowdale Bash is roughly 18 miles. 😛

Ooooo, sorry to hear that Trout…. 😥

Ive just sold my 305 that was a ss.

Real shame as well cause it was a hoot out on the trails. Not cause there was an issues with it, i just could`nt have 2 bikes doing similar things.
Also need the cash to build a new darkside tt bike.

My mate Phil had a 305 and his cracked round there as well. He is now waiting for the new version 325.5…..

When they finally get to retail at least. 😐

I met Robert Millar at a stage start 1 year. Miserable B*%£"!/d he was as well. 😡

Aspire Velotech in the US. You can get the hubs new for approx £380 a set, subject to customs though!

I bought both of mine there.

I can`t speak of second hand ones but there should be no problem with them.

Too small for Winnie the Pooh 😉

Awesomely long steerer too.

No bad back issues there then 😆

Crap areo position though 😉

Not quite Boxelder!!!! 😆

I have`nt put skirting on yet cause that wall is going to be put back across as origional so that i can have a room to escape to 😉

Its 10 years sinse i did a tt, i was`nt too shabby back then on a standard road frame with clip on tri bars.

Going the full hog this time though 😉

I have these going if you`re interested!

e-mail in profile if interested 😛

Allways Look On The Bright Side Of Life 😉

Im selling one of those Lemond frames 😆 That`s the only other one i have seen ❗

I just posted a set to Poland using royal mail cheapest. Was £43 !!! 😥

Hi Ton,

Try Max as he works for Sundog? he should be able to advise…. 😛

Hey wool ❗ Did you actually have any brake pads left after THAT descent ❓ 😉

Something to do with Murphy i`m afraid 😥

PMSL too….. :lol:check your paypal mate £5 sent towards your bike parts cause that was an Ace story!

😛

Morning Tom,

Are you at work today as im off and i could have a quick look before you decide what to do…However, i can`t see 1.5mm either side making a lot of difference.
😉

FWIW +1 for the Monkeylites, i have them on both bikes and they are superbe 😛

i`m pretty sure that Aspire Velotech have the flange dimensions etc on their site, usually just below each hub when you click on it.

sound, my CK hub at full chat… 🙄
smell, GT85…. the only bike perfume 8)

I have to say that it is`nt mine, 😉 i just took the pics. One of our Tuesday night crew owns it and the rear wheel was a loan from another mate(just to try it!) 😯 which he did do last night. It is probably as we speek being returned to normal 😛

EDIT….

Funny you should mention that Tracker. I did have a quike go and the granny gear is pure comedy! and on the way back from the pub we had a granny cog race. I ride a 20-32 on my Ti 456 and i just rode away like he was stood still. In fact he was allmost stationary while peddling quickly 😉

And in Keswick, typical BH wether 🙄

Sounds about right to me. Mine is a 16" with a long post and i`m 5-10. Thing is the seat drops right out of the way and then it rides like a BMX. They are quite long in the top tube as well so choose your stem length wisely 😛

Here is a few of mine…..

put them alltogether and you have this…..

😛 😛 😛

We rode that track in the Dark/Wet last Tuesday night 8)
