Slight irony in that the Webby Award website is utter rubbish

+1 to that!

No problem using a tyre and tube on a UST rim, if you’re lucky you may be able to get the tyre inflated with sealant and not need a tube.

I think we’d be better off with the party that doesn’t nakedly support the interests of rich, selfish arseholes quite as much.

Great, no point listening to the news on the radio on the way home tonight. I’m fairly certain that the last time the constant media “are we in recession yet?” actually added to the whole mess.

There was a a great quote before the figures were announced of “most city analysts expect low growth from the quarter” – these are the same idiots who caused a lot of the problems in the first place.

WTF??

Police time as others have said.

In the German “Wurmregal” (worm shelf) style?

Ah the “Joby Shelf” as my mate in Vienna calls it, much to his Austrian girlfriend’s annoyance.

Friend of mine was told by a physio to rub up and down the front of your calf to ease them (put olive oil on your hands to stop abrasion). He said it made a difference.

WTB Pure V on the hardtail, Spesh Phenom the bouncer and Charge Spoon on the SS.

Never got on with the SDG, found it too narrow.

The chap commentating with Warner on the race coverage said a few of the women suffered broken arms / collarbones during practice. I guess she is one of them?

Missing colour on our site? Go look at the forum NOW. :-) only for 5 mins….

:-) classic

Now that my eyes have adjusted I think it looks great, just need to sort out TNR and we’re good to go.

Has anyone else’s forum page changed colour/font? actually read any other posts on the forum today?

FTFY

It definitely won’t be a 29er bike, if someone could look up all the STW Polls[/url] in the archive you could start from there.

which will be mostly Flash based and will look something like this.

Needs moar flash

Hmmm, not that impressed. I’m sure I will stop noticing the colour change after a while but I don’t like the new front page.

If you are going to copy take inspiration from the BBC site at least have scrolling for the articles?

My copy has just arrived in the post!

just a thought, are you sure the rims are 26″ and not 29er? :wink:

I got one on a bike I bought second hand – the rebound damper went on it and had to be replaced c£90 I think but apart from that they have been flawless and work superbly. Noticeably smoother than my Lyrik on the other bike but they are overkill for most of my riding…

etc

One hopes Piers Moron is included in that list?

Actually, I’d be more hacked off if they included the DX lights in the test – there must be hundreds of threads on here about them, much more than any other lights.

FWIW I have 2 DX lights, both are great and no issues (apart from a battery failure that was sorted out).

I’ve owned a Bluepig and currently have a 456 summer season. Both great frames, for your height you’d definately need the 16″ frame.

What tyres for a taxi?

I was with Pipex who were bought out by talktalk, planned on moving as I had read all the horror stories but it’s been fine. In fact it’s actually been faster – speed jumped from 16 to 20meg.

Could be a blockage, might be some rust in the system. Had this in a rental flat years ago and the chap who came round to check it hit the exit pipe with a spanner and it worked..

The only satisfaction I can take is that it will wipe the smug look from Cook’s face.

I can’t exactly pinpoint why, but I detest him.

In fact, add Strauss so that list.

Good to see Monty back but no doubt he’ll be dropped for the next Test.

Tried from my Jesus phone on O2 and my number does not appear.

I took my 12 year old niece and she thought it was ace, only went for the day though. Took the gondola up and walked down, give them a camera to play with and they’ll have a great time.

There was a mini skills area in the pit area for kids to try out when I was there.

I like how the MP mentions a possible effect on the Olympics, cretin.

or do what the American’s do and and use “a lot of stuff”.

Are you writing a press release stating that the Government has misplaced/sold millions of peoples’ data?

particularly vitamin c

Utter bobbins, it’s been debunked quite a lot but the 1930’s study that said it works is what people use to say it does…

My previous hardtail, Blue Pig

Current hardtail, Summer Season

Buying a Saab is madness

I also own an Intense so by your comments on an earlier thread it’s a perfect match :-)

the most telling point of a car of that age/price would be the tyres

That’s a good tip, cheers.

32mpg if its a full turbo

That’s more than I’m getting just now from my 2.0 mundeo.

It’s probably unlikely I’ll get the car but I’ll take a look at it anyway. Always fancied owning one.

GS – have a look on the MTBR forums, loads of examples of the Uzzi and SS. From what you are saying the SS is probably more “aggressive” for downhill despite having less travel (I have coil totems on the uzzi). FWIW I found the Alpine to be a very good climber…

I’ve got an Uzzi (essentially the bigger brother of the SS) and it rides perfectly fine uphill. However, a mate has the Orange Alpine and I’d struggle to see how much better (if at all) a slopestyle would be in comparison.

Putting a Cane Creek double barrel on the Alpine might be a better option?

:-) cheers for the replies, thought as much!

But – if I get a year out of it hassle free I’d be happy enough.

Are you often a passenger with other drivers?

99% of the time I’m in a car it’s me who is driving and when someone else is driving I usually feel uncomfortable with their driving but I put that down down being in the passenger seat and having a slightly different view.

+1 for the Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall book, got it for xmas and has loads of great ideas.

Amazon linkage

As for quorn etc you should really just VTFU and avoid stuff pretending to be meat.
