    Bad news on that one - my fellow DH nutter pulled out on account of a twisted ankle and the weather forecast for Cwmcarn is biblical rain for most of the day so I'm canning it. No piccies tomorrow, but we're rebooking for June by which time I'll have 'The Panzer' (it's big, it's bad and it's German :) ) instead of The Bruiser and I can make him even more jealous :D

    Those crudders are a soft bunch. If Noah had come to Scotland and said 'It's going to rain for 40 days and 40 nights', we would have been p1ssing ourselves rolling on the floor laughing.

    I guess looking like you have gone three rounds with a muck spreader is going to be fun to some people.

    Unfortunately you won't get a laugh today on that front - but that's exactly what I would have looked like. Soaked Welsh hillside plus knobbly tyres = muckspreader, just without the nasty smells.

    I think he's just making up excuses. What he really want's, what he really really want's is to be sat in his bed drinking skinny Frappucino's, listening to the Carpenters box set and reading the latest issue of 'Take a break' tomorrow morning.

    I googled 'Stranraer uplift' and was drawing a blank...the mountain (or uplift) won't come to Mohammed so it's a road trip to Wales.

    Anyhow, off up North soon. Play nicely you lot.

    One of our riding buddies has either worn out his bibs or put on weight. The result is that whenever he is in the drops his crack is on show through the stressed fabric. The choice is to ride out front or put up with the view into oblivion.

    What do you suggest?

    Unless you're gay and enjoy looking at mens arse cracks the only acceptable answer here is to ride at the front :wink:

    I think he is doing it on purpose. Tomorrow I'll use cling film instead of shorts. That'll sort him.

    Dear Aunt Arran

    One of our informal cycling group wants us to get "team jerseys" so we are all coordinated and look lovely whilst out on our rides

    We have collectively told him that there's no way we'll agree to it but he's a persistent old duffer and he won't give up

    How can we politely put it that we ain't gonna do so that he doesnt get too hacked off as he's great at making fish curry when have a social event?

    Thanks in advance

    Well as Navrig2 has already sourced some jerseys I reckon you need to go for it.

    Alternatively you could do as these young ladies have done and paint jerseys on, assuming you have the chests to pull it off of course :wink:

    Is it our w*nking arm? If its not then w*nk lots until you can ride, if it is then learn to w*nk with the other arm until you can ride again. Basically just w*nk lots.

    Arran,

    Sort this out for me, i need a "problem" dealt with. I have to take my wife's cousin to the pub keep him entertained for a day whilst he is over from France. He speaks very little English and just sits there looking miserable. She suggested taking him to a museum or similar but the football will be on.

    Can I leave him with you?

    Why not play hide and seek? he can hide you can watch the football and then Arran doesn't do him any lasting damage. Everyone is a winner, except England at a guess

    Dear Arran,

    How should I approach a fashionable looking young lady when wearing lycra

    Museums can be very stuffy, I think you'll get away with the pub idea as long as you emphasis to your wife that's it's so her brother can get a real cultural experience :D

    Failing that do as sa0u823e suggests and play hide and seek, then you can accidentally 'loose' him somewhere :wink:
