    I really hope that Boardman are not sponsoring the ITV4 coverage of the TdF again this year. I've still got that fookin' awful music in my head :(

    Nope. They were setting up outside my building today for the race tonight, but it didn't start until 1900 hrs and I have a 1.5 hour commute so I CBA :(

    I shall contribute one and only one question to the guide, namely: "Why does Mark Cavendish have a rainbow flag on his jumper? Answer: Because he is such a huge fan of the Village People."

    Don't say that, you'll upset Tusher.

    So saying that they're external gastric bands in funky colours for the new daddy wouldn't go down well either?

    Apparently.

    You've got the obligatory 200+ posts - that gets you through the informal early qualification rounds. I've got to spout sh!te for another 80 posts before I even get a response from one of the secretaries of one of the apostles of one of the Forum Ruling Elite.
    There's been quite a few other noobs spouting sh!te, lately, so you won't get lonely if that's your thing.

    Don't worry. Will be re-instating the rule whereby mentioning the post-count will result in a resetting of the count.

    I have this bizarre recollection you called yourself a NOOb last week on the Workshop forum. No, can't of been, the guy said he didn't have a tool. :lol::lol:

    They're great, aren't they! I've got one, it's got wheels and a chain and everything! Aren't wheels fantastic, they way they just go round and round and round, brilliant! Unless you stop, then they're just round! Isn't stopping ace! You can have a rest and get a cup of coffee and a bite to eat! Eating's great, isn't it? And coffee too!

    I think you are due a dope test Rick. Your meteoric rise from posting stagiare to Forum Grand Tour Maillot Rouge has been nothing short of Armstrongesque!

    Not to mention his post rate. Michele Ferrari famously said a poster need to to achieve a post to days ratio of about 15 to be a moderator candidate. Other doctors say 12 is the maximum achievable clean. Rick's is over 17.

    Do you think we should start measuring "postacrit" levels Rich? or should we start calling Rick "Mr 17+" in a Riisesque way?
