The Achey Monday morning Meh thread

VWsurfbum

Tards,
Well on a scale of 1-10 of weekends this one was awesome
cracking ride with some fellow crudites, twas coolio. Alos now have a awesome T-Shirt crudcatcher style 8) Cheers Kaiser.

Yesterdays ride was probably the nail in the cofin for me and the bike, and very nearly a slight case of death at some points, loosing the bolt off the rear brake mount on the first decent made for some interesting noises and some intersting choises of lines, but it did mean i was faster down and had a lot more fun :shock:

GP was also excellent when i eventually got to watch it, but not seen TG yet so Shhh

Anywhoo back to work Meh

Morning fweaks

First day of horse placement today... really not in the mood, oh well better get on with it I suppose.

Last night I had a brilliant idea and decided I'm going to build a hardtail with lots of travel, possibly a 456 summer season, it still seems like a good idea this morning so today while I'm not actually doing aything I'm going to be researching it a bit.

Is that where you leave horses in ridiculous locations... ie, is a pub or an a plane?

Morning All,

Today will be spent recovering from being forced to watch a film starring Jennifer Aniston, whilst not eating any bacon or meat products. Diet's going well though, almost down to 13.5 stone from my big fat corporate 15.

Yo Maggots,

I my home office today :¬)
Sat @ my desk armed with a mug of tea, a little tired after watching a movie until 2AM, but 6 hours sleep is usually quite sufficient for me.
For those who care, I watched Tron Legacy, very nice special effects, mediocre story line and the babe who played Quorra is a hottie..

Today will be spent mostly avoiding work after being at Silverstone all weekend, with this I will be trying to find my hearing capabilities once more as they have deserted me!

What a weekend though, sat right on club corner where there was some quality bits of action (the one where Massa tried to eat Hamilton's car on the last corner of the race).

KitsuneAndy

Not too bad a morning for a Monday for me.

Sat at my desk with coffee and a bacon sammich. Going to Afan on Friday with a couple of colleagues, so we're mainly just chatting about that rather than doing any actual work.

Maybe if I avoid work long enough, the code will write itself.

i'm stiff and aching from lots of hill riding at the weekend.

Happily though it's sunny and dry so brought the motorbike in today instead of the car.

Got a terrible day of work coming up, must go out and test a 3.5k titanium bike. Oh the joy.

on the bike or being test ridden by supersonic?

Oh and further to my earlier post I don't dislike anyone on here, you're all like a virtual webbo family to me. Which is very much like real life as it means I have at least 9 people I refer to as dad

Hola hombres,

Start of 2 weeks off work for me.

Still somehow have more to do than I would if I were at work though :?
No chance of nike riding all week I fear but next week, just as the weather invariably turns shitty again I shall be out on zee bike and heading off into zee woods and over zee Downs on it.

Right, back to the non-work grind. Laters hippies.

Good ride on Sat with the peeps if a little damp, Still not loving the jumps on the energy section they just don't flow at all horrid jumps. but lovely pedal for the day :P

Thewaylander glad your eating again, i find it helps.
i hit the wall decents again yesterday and managed to stay off the brakes a bit better, got some nice air in places, but still dont know it well enough to properly let go!

thekickingmule

Howdy!
Been a busy old morning for me. Moving tables, setting things up, talking techy stuff with the man building my studios, meeting in the corridor about speakers (going for Genelecs - joy of joys).

Anywho, would like to get out on the Blender tonight, but i think I have too many things to be getting on with Ah well.

My morning was earlier than it used to be.

Economy class followed by 04:39 run round Akasaka Palace. Breakfast of 6 grapes and tea - cost per grape £6.oo so I assume that grapes are expensive in Japan and everything else is reasonable!

Worked in office with geniuses and 3 immensly lovely girls....

I now know why I had a yen to come to Japan.!!

Good effort, the last down hill's on the wall are supperb for just letting it fly! did you manage to get it drifting the back end a bit? with some of moisture up there the wall does let some quality fun slide in at times

Was really good to meet you all

spongtastic

Arggghhhh!

The price quoted to replace the PX frame, is the same price they're selling it at in the sale.

WTF is the point in offering crash replacement if they do things like this?

Afternoon

I'm aching like hell after cyciling into work this morning - it's about 12 miles but must still be more out of shape than I thought. I was sweating like a b@stard as well when I arrived and it wasn't even that hot at 8am. Must try harder! Still easy day in the office so wtf.
