    I’ve done it before for about 10 miles, went for the baby wipes and smellies approach. Seemed to be ok, but then I was just changing into a different set of shorts and tshirt for work.

    Not sure It would work so well to jump straight into a suit, might just be me but I tend to sweat for a while afterwards unless I cool myself down quickly.

    That seems pretty crazy ^ he was put on a sex offenders register for rubbing his bits on a bike in his own bedroom?

    I’m glad there was no police surveillance in my bedroom when I was 15…

    He obviously misunderstood when his missus suggested they try dogging

    Just post them a turd in a jiffy bag if it’s not about money. Should redress the balance on grounds of principal.

    That was all a lie I don’t even use strava or have a turbo…

    I feel like bit of a fruitcake sat here talking to myself to make sure my answers don’t sound stupid out-loud.

    Been asked to answer this – please describe an occasion where your plans were unexpectedly changed at the last minute and please record how you felt and dealt with the situation…

    Got my mountain bike out of garage for my plans to the thwarted by the sudden monsoon occurring at my doorstep, I felt the type of rage only otherwise induced by 650B marketing male bovine excrement. I composed myself and dealt with the situation by considering how I could still achieve my goal of obtaining that vital KOM and retired back inside to spend an hour on the turbo visualising my next opportunity to shred the trail so hard on my steed that I transport myself to the magical world of Gnarnia.

    Ok, I feel I am taking this less seriously than I should….

    Yeah the dark blue ones they are a bit different and smaller than the originals (not really a bad thing as they are maaaassive), got the crank covers which are awesome as make them look new and are really thick vinyl so should last a while.

    Food, stuff to read, music, food and money (to buy more food when you eat all yours)

    The stay up the head end advice is good, my first was a C section and they accidentaly knocked over the “curtain” in the middle so I saw the huge whole they had sliced through my missus, although I can literally say I know her inside and out now.

    2nd time I foolishly looked down below when the midwife said you could see the head…

    Thankfully I was so traumatised by the whole incident that I have absolutely no recollection of what I saw as my subconscious seems to have forced me to forget.

    Wow…

    I like the paint but will be interested to see how the look on a complete bike?

    Just seems like you will spend your rides wincing every time you hit some loose stones or some branched across the path

    I saw them in cardiff when tickets were £5 and the venue was about 300 people. Said they were shit and would never get any bigger than that

    😆 May have lost a few points on my good judgement score (thought tbf the sound equipment and acoustics of the place was terrible so I don’t think anyone would have sounded good in there)

    He seemed an decent guy when I met him but that’s not really the point I am making…

    If you are buying a whole bike not as much of an issue but more for future proofing.

    As a new tapered fork won’t fit into an “old” 1/8 headtube.

    650b wheels are required if you need your trails to come alive.

    Just went in Feb with a 1 & 3 yr old.
    Towing then both up the hill in a trailer 2+ times a day certainly gave my legs a work out!

    Kids loved the pool and the play area (mostly the circus room upstairs at their age) everything was on lock down one day because of massive storm so got s bit bored.

    Can’t coment on the other things in the area as mostly closed in Feb.

    I grew up spending lots of my time as a kid knee deep in shit on a farm and hardly ever get very ill . My brother is 8 years younger than me and the family farm was sold when he was about 3 so never really had much exposure. He is Ill all the time…

    All anecdotal evidence of course but my kids are washed and clean but certainly not disinfected living in a sterile detol salesmans environment

    There was a thread that genuinely helped to stop someone committing suicide and featured a real “bobs your uncle” moment.

    What more can you ask?

    Do STW threads need to provide formulae for turning your turds into gold or curing your venereal diseases before they start to impress you?

    It hurts falling on your face is usually the reason I avoid jumps…

    I’m just not good at them, tabletops and small ones however are not a problem and fun but anything with a big drop/gap and “the fear” sets in

    For full disclosure I am a yoof by STW standards

    From previous experience of being in a position where I had very severe anxiety and depression due to work place stress and the threat of losing my job (in my case me personally being threatened rather than the team/company) what made me jump ship in the end was when I realised it was making me a crappy dad and boyfriend, I couldn’t let my family suffer for something out of their control.

    I left and it worked out ok I took a bit of a paycut but we managed and it felt like a massive weight off my shoulders as soon as I walked out of there.

    Now i’m not going go lie and say everything worked out perfectly, I’m a year on from my resignation, my personal life is much improved but I still have things that happened during my “bad period” that i haven’t yet fixed and my current job is also now under threat due to privatisation.

    But I 100% do not regret the choice I made, I fear it could have ended much much worse for me and everyone around me had I stayed.

    So in my opinion your health and mental well being should be top priority, just make sure you are absolutely 100% certain you are making the right choice before you do it, as only you can really be the judge.

    So what they did was wrong and they should be physically harmed, so if you also broke the law does this make you feel they have the same entitlement to harm you back out of retribution?

    I have only been in car to north Wales once and I can confirm it took literally 9 years*

    * I was 8 at the time so everything seemed a lot slower
