    Reminds me of a joke.


    Little Johnny's father asked him, "Do you know about the birds and the bees?"

    "I don't want to know!" little Johnny said, bursting into tears.

    Confused, the father asked little Johnny what was wrong.

    "Oh dad," Little Johnny sobbed, "At age six I got the 'there's no Santa' speech. At age seven I got the 'there's no Easter bunny' speech. Then at age 8 you hit me with the 'there's no tooth fairy' speech! If you're going to tell me now that grown-ups don't really sh*g, I've got nothing left to live for!"


    I'll get me coat!

    A non cycling mate asked me last week if I got many punctures. I told him I'd had this set of tyres on for about 1500 miles with no punctures. 2 miles later I had one on the way home from work then 1 again 2 days later. Ah well hopefully I'll manage another 1500 miles before I get another 2 punctures.

    Conclusion: The Puncture Fairy IS out there...
    Those of you who escaped her wrath this time, do not mock her for she will surely exact her revenge upon you.

    Haven't had a puncture in months but had two this morning. My commute is 34 miles each way(just one or two days a week..I'm not that keen!) and I had the first 13 miles in and the second 33 and a half miles in:( I just pushed it the rest of the way in the pouring rain. A car driver did stop and offer assistance so that was something positive anyway.

    I was also 2mph up on my previous best time when I got the first puncture:(

    I had a pre-emptive puncture on Sunday.

    Always like to stay ahead of the game! :D
    Even if the voices aren't real, they have some very good ideas.
