Been meaning to put this one on canvas for ages

Funny drain…. Mines a superlight too!

I moved from 175 to 170. Haven’t noticed any difference other than I dont strike my pedals any more.

Balls.

Cheers though Mister P.

Oddly Mrs Zoolander calls me Mr P, (surname begins with a P). Anyhow…..

Yep I got mine from merlin. They were cheapest when taking the 10% VIP thingy into account.

If you do decide to stay in Ibiza town I can recommend this place as somewhere to stay. http://www.apartamentosmariano.com/en/index.php really nice apartments right by the Walls of the old town. The rooftop terrace has a damn nice view as well :)

Just booked to go back in sept :)

Woody. Blue steel is out and magnum is in:
It goes a little something like this!

A face only a mother could love :)

For 1 night-

KM5 has to be a top shout. great restaurant and pre club.
If you want to hang out nearer Ibiza town, one of the best restaurants is Sa Punta in the nearby bay of Talamanca great food and one of the best views on the island.
If you are staying in or near Santa Eulalia there’s loads of options, it’s where we always stay for that very reason. That said I would recommend Ses Savines as certainly one if the best restaurants.
Oh and there’s always Atzaro, pricey but awesome, utterly awesome.

(plus there’s always Oliver at Ibizamtb.com if you have time for a ride – top bloke as well)

I could go on but I’m going to stop there …. For the time being :)

Noisy eaters.

Isn’t the shimano 10 speed stuff designed for a shimano directional 10 speed chain? I could be wrong but perhaps it’s the sram chain that’s the issue?

The commuter

And as I’m not leaving the house today this is the best I could do for the other one

Sorry Phil waterbottlecat is sometimes also known as Darthcat

She has a sister upsidedowncat – she responds less favourably to headgear though

My pet waterbottlecat

Same as Oink, I bought the syncros ones last week and thus far they feel great. Look rather swish too!

Cannondales with lefty forks – they look plain wrong.
Specialised bikes as well. I’m sure they are great but I’ve a friend who won’t buy a bike or any bit of equipment or clothing unless its made by specialized – so I’m sick of the sight of them!
Giants – don’t know why but I don’t like the name.
Reeboks – seriously wtf

Majestic wines.

Similar thing. The neg in mine is only acted lower but I was suprised to find I only need 70 psi in mine – compared to 115 in the rebas that they replaced. Nice forks when they are set up though – although I’m checking the oil levels in mine ( well the lbs is! ) later tuis week.

I recently got some luso pro gel bibshorts from merlin. My word what a difference!
Don’t know about cream though wouldn’t mind knowing myself.

What drac said.

On a serious note – I leave mine out on the washing line after most rides. Seems to work.

Love the thread title.

Made me giggle

<edit damn iPhone spell thingy>

Married for 8 years and I’m only (only ;) ) 33. She’s awesome – and oddly she has never learnt to ride a bike but is happy for me to bugger off for ages on mine.
Perhaps not being the same helps! Although we do have quite a bit in common.

One thing to add – the best black pudding in the world is from Burgos!

Just been to the post office to collect the pedals.
Thanks Singletrackmind – v generous prize for a good cause! They look great :)

Now I haven’t ridden flats in years – I’m probably going to really hurt myself!

Yep – I’m the same.
No idea.
I’m either the cleverest stupid person or the stupidest clever person you’ll ever meet.

Emma / no need to pee On your feet when you csn borrow my already pee infested shoes. Problem solved.

Hels / can’t say I’ve thought of checking his weaponry – liking the supersoaker plan though. My previous plan was to chase him out and up the garden whilst doing some sort of an impression of a rabid chimpanzee – clearly it didn’t work.

On a side note :
That damn Tom cat keeps breaking into my damn house – trying to get it on with my darling female cats & spraying in the kitchen.
Trying to rape my babies is one thing but stinking out my spuds is another – you gonna get it you furry beast :-(

Anyone know how to get cat pee smell out of shoes? The washing machine didn’t seem to do it.

Nobby sick
And a raaaaalph on the front

Feel your pain-
Next door’s cat has pissed in my spds :(

If your shocks getting pushed ive heard it’ll be amazing.
If you’re getting pushed then it’s going to be frikken awesome…. But possibly quite painful!

Was on my way out but stopped for a quick front mech fettle and somehow hamfistedly snapped it :( end of ride before I’d left the garden – I’d usually have just picked up the singlespeed but I bust the freehub last week on that -double :( :(
So it been an evening of fettling with the rest of the bike instead (and some vino) ((and Chinese))

Ahhh bumpstop in the damper – that would make sense. Cheers

On a side note. Is it worth getting the shock pushed for a single pivot such as the superlight? Anyone any experiences?

Lol – cheers.
It’s 57
Just had the shock off and it’s deffo the shock that won’t compress further. The rear end of the bike has a way to go. Going to see if I can find out what the shock travel of the frame is – but I’m guessing 50!

Thanks!

Hmmm – I’ll try checking the pivots.

Cool – cheers Matt.
No other obstructions – that’s where the shock seems to bottom out. It rides fine – I just figured it was a bit weird.

Yep – plenty chain to be had. Hadn’t thought of that mind but just checked.

Yep pro pedals off – dont use it much tbh.
(might have done the last descent at cwmcarn with pro pedal on and the forks locked out last week mind <idiot>!)
