    FF and RR? The lion lies down with the lamb.

    Which one is which?
  • I've never understood why people get so worked up about mods.

    Although I suppose mods could take a leaf out of this book:

    You're missing the point.

    The point being it's the end of days.

    You got Macaloon wrong there Frenchie. Think this is what you were looking for...

    Awww Thanks Frenchie

    I look forward to the next BRPR meet up when we can finally meet each other in person

    FYI - Cavendish is on Hard Talk (iplayer) this week, I'm 2 mins in and already it's a very very good insight into him as whoever the interviewer is he's a non cyclist and si asking difficult questions that a normo cylcing journo wouldnt ask..

    Tusher, my flower, you'd love it!!

    It is Christmas soon, lighten up and the Tour Down Under is not far away, then ther Milan San Remo and it is back to business. The cycle review of the year is on sale now from all good newsagents - get one and something off the top shelf too, christ you needs it.
    Putting my head above the parapet, so don't shoot yet until you've read this pedantic post.
    Quote "TDU and then there is Milan-San Remo" but I'm only really interested in Europe, so it is :-
    Trofeo Laigueglia 21st Feb,
    Omloop Het Nieuwsblad 1st March, KBK 2nd March
    Paris-Nice 9-16 March,
    Tirreno-Adriatico 12-18 March

    before Milan-San Remo 23 March and lots of Europe races from early February. (of note Strade Bianche, Roma Maxima)

    You can throw pillows now as I duck again and the afternoons are now getting lighter.

    Right you lot.

    I'll deal with people on the mod end but if there is someone who you find aggravating or you see is not derailing threads etc don't engage. You'll only wind yourself up and others.

    People who don't want to discuss will leave if left to it.

    Come on Rick - no sooner had I accused them of having no sense of humour, hey presto, a whole load of pics and some captions. Surely this is a happy derailment? Does that make me the rear mech?

    @ dejay - Respect for naming the European events that have lots of history and tradition. Can we open up a thread which debates whether or not to ditch tours and events outside of Europe?

    There's a thread titled "Tour of Wherever" which basically discusses such things. It's probably dropped down to the second page

    Well chuffed to have made it onto a Frenchie photo montage. All this bickering has produced something good (nearly said positive!) :D

    Shhhhh. I shave it off and use industrial levels of hair bleach normally. No one is supposed to know :shock:

    I'm going to take a wild swing and suggest that Tache Man is an IDF soldier. Having worked documenting their human rights abuses in a former life, I recognise the uniform and that's an M16 he's carrying, the IDF weapon of choice, but his rank hanging around the neck is the main give away.

    Rank insignia on the chest is fairly common in most western armies (especially when epulettes are obscured by a flack jacket) and the M16 is also the standard US Army/Marine assault weapon too

    Ah ha, I've never seen it on US soldiers before, but then I haven't been in close quarters with them. See this forum is always a wealth of information.

  • Right, so technically you are all trolling MY thread... so think about it next time you report someone for trolling.
