    He's just a chancer, the window licker who buys it however, will be the Mayor of Mentalsville.

    I'd pay £20 not to put that tat on my bike.

    Anyone want one of those? I'll sell it for a pack of after eight munchies.... :lol:

    I remember trying to screw it in and it collapsing in on itself, but hey, at least it was better than those sunglasses.

    EDIT: Please note that I did not try to use this item because I thought it was cool. I managed to lose a top cap whilst fettling and that was all I could find. 8)

    Most of the gifts are pretty shody but there are a few useful ones like the belt and the wallet :wink:

    You lot been on the sherbets?

    Thats an awesome piece of kit, and if its too thin to tension with then also an amazing weightsaving device. Adjust with standard cap, tighten stem, remove boring lame ordinary cap, replace with Mint lovelyness.

    Now if anybodys got one for a more reasonable price I may be interested :wink:
  • I would like to do the whole 'resevoir dogs' sketch with this c****.

    But instead of Steelers Wheel - stuck in the middle with you I would play this

    before I cut the 'Im a hippy-singlespeeder-holierthanthou-wanker-trying-to sell-a-free-gift-onsheepscunt-mintsauce-and-joburtismyhero' ears off....

    what a total bell-end.

    I'm sorry, but I can't fkn stand Mint Sauce. It's this whole thing of it being an "inside joke" and anyone who dosent pretend to find it pant-wettingly funny "just dosent get it".

    I GET IT, it's just shlt!

    Mint Sauce was more enjoyable in the mid-90s, seems to gone a bit laa-laa now.

    I love Mint sauce. I really do. It's not even MEANT to be funny half the time though. It's just some artistic contemplation.
    I would not get a mint sauce topcap though. Especially not for that money!

    (by the way, did anyone know that "Pink Heiffer" in Coed y Brenin was named after Mint Sauce?)

    I like Top Cap, but Officer Dibble was much, much funnier.

    That crazy "New Yoik," cop...wadda Wise Guy!!!
  • mmmm, perhaps saying funny was a bit of a stretch, I know some are ment to be funny, some inspirational etc but they just don't do anything for me. Then I generally don't get art as a whole so it's no real surprise.

    For some people it's a case of if you don't like mintsauce you're not a REAL MTBer. Those are the kind of sheepstwats who would pay £20 for something thats complete tat just because it's mintsauce branded. They are also the sort of people who deserve to have the topcap fail on th

    Pink Heiffer?

    I thought it was pee-take of "Red Bull", as Red Bull only gave a few grand for sign posts, and then wouldn't stump up any more cash, even though they were getting mega-advertising for hardly any outlay.
    So, apparently, Dafydd Davis took the pee by using the Pink name when the second major development phase was undertaken at CYB. ( I know about this as I was one of the volunteers and attended the 2 meetings/lectures with the IMBA yanks/Dafydd/FC staff.)

    Well, that's what I was told anyway...

    It wasn't the second development though, Splotboy.
    You might be right about the origin, but the story I've heard is that it's from Coleman the cow's alter ego.
    Apart from that, I've been to, and raced at two red events at Coedy that were billed as being supported by Red Bull. Now, even if they weren't directly paying to be there, surely that drew in a lot of business.

    Well, that goes without saying. There's people who ride mountain bikes, then there's MTBers, then there's REAL MTBers :lol::wink:
  • These REAL MTBers would be the ones who "look all gucci and whatnot" too I presume? :wink:

    Of course :lol:
  • and they ride FS wearing flats too?

    If so, as a non-mint sauce loving, non gucci looking, hartdail with clipless riding kinda guy I guess I'd best take up another hobby.

    Perhaps something like This :lol:

    No, the REAL MTBers ride rigid steel bikes, and don't even have a single speed. They are propelled by smug.
