Essential Mountain Bike Education for Roadies :P - after Pinno claims never to have heard of the Fantasy Downhill League. So here's lesson 1 - ladies in mountain Biking. Take two of the most talented female mountain bikers in the world (both British):

Rachel Atherton

and Manon Carpenter

and put them head to head in some tight dirt track action... :wink:

We'll get some converts one way or another.

    I finally get the points of downhill.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    I'm sure you know where to find something more in line with your requirements.

    You can only bang your head on a wall for so long (well, in your case a tree) before you have to let it go.

    Here's a great expression from Finland for you:

    'It's never too late to give up'.

    'Fun in Wales' - that conjures up a myriad of images.

    I just pop on my bike and off I go.

    Great women of downhill. Former double downhill world champ, can't remember her name, of the early 90s runs a great gelateria near Verona.

    V68's advancing senility is nothing to do with this thread.

    Do I hear the distant sound of guns and canons? No, that's the sound of a thread backfiring. Welcome to the club Stevo.

    Pina's threads - No. of pages: 203 (First 2 pages of CS and BB)
    Stevo's threads - No. of pages: 2 (First 2 pages of CS and BB)

    Some would deduce that fear of failure is standing in your way :wink:

    Wrong end of the stick mud waller. Go on - be a devil, start more threads and be prepared to put your tin hat on 'cos some work and some don't.
