So it kicked off over in the Bottom Bracket:
Rule 7 is an ar$e
and
Apology from Pinarello001

Not sure what went down but I find myself making a backstory to it. Was anyone there, what went down?

Also what I do find interesting is Pinarello's comments about poaching in Africa - now I know the Chinese Industry has focused its trading onto Africa for a few years now, I am also aware of the Eastern part of the Worlds ability to consume with a level of disregard not shared by the West and Africa's track record of selling off its natural resouces for a quick buck. I'm actually interested in hearing what Pinarello was refering to. So if anyone not banned has any insight or knowledge on this then please share.

    Oh that.

    Two storms one cup.

    A thread was started for no other reason than to post drivel which rapidly became a thread to up post counts (hence Rule 7)

    The other one was a thread where the aforementioned P001 made some pretty nasty comments about all Chinese based on the actions of a few (folk medicines and how they were procured: baby rhino having its horn removed while it was alive was the graphic one I recall). The Chinese equivalent of saying all black people are criminals - imagine the furore if that was genuinely posted .

    I'm not sure that is a fair characterisation of what was posted, but then I can't remember exactly what was posted and the thread has been deleted.

    Who cares.

    Its the Bottom Bracket for a reason.

    Do we need to know about it here?

  • I want to know who the new and anonymized "Bikeradar Moderator" is. A total of two posts, both locking threads.

    Has Rick treated himself to a second account? I thought that was a BR no-no.

    You know, I was thinking about those looney tunes this morning. The BBC website has some stills of the heli crash this morning. One was taken from the top of the MI6 building. No doubt taken by the spotter who was guiding the aim of the bloke who brought the heli down with a SAM, obviously...

    On the subject of drugs, I don't understand why people talk about drug abuse.
    What else are you supposed to do with an E except neck it, a spliff other than smoke it, a line of cocaine other than snort it?

    Not all drug use is recreational.

    It becomes abuse when you neck the spliff, smoke the cocaine and snort the E.

    If it weren't so appalling, it would be sad. But I refuse to allow sadness to overpower my complete and utter disgust at this evil racist bile!

    I find the advocating of drug use for recreational purposes abhorrent.

    As for Kim Jong Richard's racism, I was told that he listens to hip hop so he can say the n-word while pretending to sing along to the lyrics.
