    I'm patiently waiting for the bike shop to open.... can't decide on an xt or xtr rear mech. if i buy the xtr i won't have much money left but will get a better performance.

    just hope today is better than yesterday... got all excited about adding new chain/cassette but bike still doesn't work :evil:

    as for the rest of the day, busy day at work,

    Get an XT, you're better off with XTR levers if you're going down the XTR route ... for performance.

    Perfectly adequate (the XT) - save some dosh!!!

    Morning all!

    I am sitting at work waiting for my boss to arrive....I have no work to do until then!
    The other good thing about getting in before the boss is that they don't know what time you came in....so you can make out you were in earlier than you were!

    I went climbing last night, was a good session and although I am not yet at the level I was pre injury, there was definite improvement snce last time. I got my arms so pumped on one route, they swelled up huuuge for about 20 min after, I expected to be in pain, muchos aching this morning but I am not :D WIn!

    Climbing again tonight! Need to get out on the bike again though now I can! Just need to get my forks fixed!
    Ride it like you stole it!

    morning, had a shoot day at work yesterday and i'm finding it hard to bite my toungue.

    anywhoo i had a good ride last night, and i'm meant to be racing tonight.

    projectsome XT not XTR unless they do you a really good price 8)

    its the last thing i need to upgrade on my bike, but its one of those things thats working fine so find it hard to justify buying one. (bit like the poo avid brakes i have)

    today i will be mainly doing all the work, with slight intervals of coffee and sugary cake.

    Good Morning Freaks!

    XT for the rear mech. You don't cry so much when you b0rk them...

    Had an awesome race, erm I mean ride into work today. I'm on the XTC and was "ridng furiously" with a guy on a very nice carbon fibre Spesh flat bar roadie bike. I got the better of him in the end, but am absolutely knackered now. Average speed was 19.1mph... :shock:

    Today shall be spent plotting, a little planning, some browsing and maybe even some work...

    I also need to dispatch a minion for coffee and something bacon flavoured...

    OOh i forgot, last night i almost got knocked off my bike down the singletrack by a barn owl! :!: :!: :!:
    that spooked me right out, then it proceeded to fly over next to my left shoulder for a few meters before heading up into the trees.

    so i get back on pace, a few hundred meters up the track and i get deer running to my right, again stopped, didnt want to get trammpled on. (they have a habbit of just cutting you up, loads of them as theres never just one of them)

    hoping for a better day at work today.......

    Went running last night and am still in pain :(

    Cycling later with the local club, so hopefully a good 40 miles.

    I'm having withdrawal symptoms, haven't rode for 3 weeks (minus to and from work yesterday)

    XT rear mech, you know it makes sense. Go for a shadow one.

    I've just woken up, debating in my head whether to ride to work or not. i have to be in by 10am, but i may end up working very late tonight. hmm.

    HOLA HOMBRES!

    :lol:


    Today I will be working. After today I'm having a few days off because I've actually died from doing all this overtime.

    Watching Red Bull X-Fighters tonight, and Sherlock Holmes.

    It's been 3 weeks since I went for a proper ride. I've just not been ar5ed, but I will make an effort over the next few days.

    In that case....
    Bless me father for I have sinned...I have not been on my bike for 5 months! I HAVE been injured but I was signed off by my consultant last week so I am now permitted to ride. So far I have failed at this!

    Will go out as soon as mojo fix my busted forks I promise....stupid flimsy fox cr@p!

    How man hail marys...or what is my punishment?



    PS. I want a bacon sandwich

    Bacon is for sinners!
    Not riding is sinning in the highest form!

    50 hail mary's and bowl of musli for you!







    Or just get out on your bike ASAP and eat as much bacon as your minion can carry?

    I will get out when my bike has working forks.....technically it is not my fault, it is FOX for making forks that break :evil:

    If I was fat, then I could accept this. However I am rather un-fat so if I can break it, it must be bad!

    Morning everybody!

    Last night I went for a run, it wasn't far, only 2 miles, but ye Gods, there are some steep hills near my house! I think I'm in the process of finding a nice little loop for the bike, so it was worth it, and I'm happy that today I don't ache, I feel great :D

    Tonight, I'm goin to Ikea to get a sofa bed.

    Right now I want a bacon and egg sandwich, but I'm determined to lose weight :(
    It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

    Good afternoon all, Today I am broken. Went on a ride yesterday with local club and after about 2 and half hours was really struggling to keep pace and by the last 2 hills (about 3 and quater hours in) I'd properly "bonked" and had no power, still managed to finish the ride a with a final burst of power and was only about 10seconds behind the main group so I was pleased I didn't let myself down. God do I need work on my endurance though!
