The people who frequent the Commuting section on Bikeradar are the cycling equivalent of Daily Mail readers.

A shower of c*~#.

I always feel jealous myself of the fun you seem to have. It looks great at the pub - drinking beer and talking about bikes. If only I lived in London...

Actually it is fantastic where I live...

I enjoy the threads but don't contribute that much 'cos most of the topics seem London focused.

If I was in London one weeknd could I come along to the pub? :?:

Only if you swear that you don't read the Daily Mail.

Wow - there's a collection of juvenile twerps on that fgss board.

Daliy Mail readers? that's figthing talk, I'll be firing up my Massey Ferguson and heading "up that London" tomorrow to pitchfork me a fixie (except for LIT and friends who seem a nice bunch of Guardian readers to me)

There's a daft swear word in Swedish that translates into "a shoal/school of c*nts".

Fitstimm.

FFFIT-STIMM!


Lovely

Even better, "vilken jävla fitstimm" - "what a blo0dy school of c*nts"
(vill-ken yah-vlah fitt-stimm)

Their thread rather confirms all my worst assumptions about the fixed gear community.

I'm sure there are other threads that are suggestive of 3 digit IQ's.

I'm sure there are other threads that use rather fewer ancient Saxon expletives and find less "satire" in now deceased disabled charity campaigners (and who do not confuse them with characters from Friends).

I take it their forum is unmoderated? Does it have a sand pit? I hope not. One of them will wee in it my mistake and teacher will have to call mum to come and collect them.

I'm worried about the effects of tw@ts on fixies with silly handlebars on house prices.

I wouldn't worry about it - I don't think that the population of that particular thread are going to be troubling the housing market at any stage.

It's just that, what with the death of Princess Di, and the health and safety gestapo, and the takeover of this once great country by SO CALLED Brussels, I just don't know where to turn. And now Gordon Frown is telling me I should be paying for the feckless offspring of travelling gipsies and Polish chappies to ride round with silly colour tyres. If I'm right "Sir" Fred Goodwin rides a fixer-whatsit. Not even a good English bike. I fought in the war you know.

See - this Daily Mail stuff is easy...

The Rookie

I read the Mail, but I can give it up any time I want to, I know I can, really.......It is possible to be a rampant fascist and bleeding heart liberal all at the same time, I think, I'll just ask my other self and check.....

I wish that we didn't have a swearing filter on here - quite fun to read the vitriol dripping off the posts on londonfgss...

DonDaddyD

I'm dissapointed that Brun didn't stand up for us and defend our honour

I always knew he was one of them....

il_principe

I frequent both, does that make me a Hybrid C**t?

Deadeye Duck

Next thing you know, we'll have 10 new posters in the commuting section as they prepare for a forum invasion. I'm glad I keep my pitchfork sharpened

Anyway, it seemed like it was pretty much only one guy who had a problem with this place and everyone else was just running with it. Was he/she an ex-poster here? shunned off because of their love affair with a hybrid?

Cafewanda

Alright that's enough!!! Back off with the hybrid insults. I'm a woman on the edge with pitchfork sharpened at the ready....... :twisted: :twisted:


Oh sod it. It's too nice a morning to be annoyed.... carry on

Ouch! The standard of repartee on there and and that biting satire is awesome. 8)

That post won the "Dude!" awards for word count, construction, hilarity and spelling cunt right at last year's LSFSGDGSS annual "Dude!" awards.

It's consider something of a classic.

Also - anyone got any tar? My burning torch is great for maybe 20 mins but I can't keep the blaze going for long enough to really get my eye in for middle of the night asylum seeker intimidation.

Soul Boy

I soooo wish I hadn't made those comments yesterday, that seems like a much better site. You can swear and everything. They'll never have me now :oops:

I'm offering myself up for deportation.....

There'll be a peloton, nay, a mob of hybrid riders marching to the Morpeth at dusk, pitchforks and torches at the ready, baying for blood, with Cafewanda at the helm...

But we'll see them coming in their hi-viz and we'll all ride away, giggling.

Nah, not a peloton - the word peloton is suggestive of a level of speed and organisation they simply don't have...
Sorry Wanda. :oops:

Damn it, I read the Times.

I only read the Guardian if the Times and the Telegraph aren't available in the lounge.

However, I do usually pinch the G2 (SO copied from the t2) for the crossword.

Dammit, I can't disagree with that statement!!! :shock: :shock: as it applies to me, anyway.


One day I'll be peloton ready then you'll see

I think disapproving of RLJing = Daily Mail in their eyes.

Fixed that for you.

My club simply won't provide the Guardian, lefty rag that it is.

biondino

On the other hand, they could just be jealous of our high standards of banter. Here's their version of the SCR thread

"C***!"

"LOL"

"Haha that c*** said c***!"

"Dude you are such a c***"

"C***!"

"Nah mate it ain't funny now"

"LOL yeh it is"

"C***!"

"I fall of when I try to do a skid stop in Hoxton, am I a c***?"

ad nauseam...

Oh, sorry, I should have clarified - I meant the lounge at Heathrow or St Pancras. I don't buy papers, man, who do you think I am?

But then they'll catch you up as you wait patiently at box junctions while they RLJ all the way.

This had occurred to me. Luckily they can't ride one handed and will have been forced to abandon their pitchforks.

They can hold the pitchforks in their teeth - the bite of a hybrid rider is actually the most powerful in the animal kingdom even exceeding that of the Crocodile and Great White Shark in terms of Lbs per Sq inch
