Morning darlings of the faux cycling world.

Today I shall sit in a coffee shop until I can be bothered to move. I may even go over to scouse ville for the tour of Britain stuff. Doubt it though, have to watch my pockets n car n stuff

    Morning Lycra lovers,

    I'm sitting at my local garage getting a new tyre on the car so it can get through the MOT later this month. At least they've got free coffee, albeit a bit crap. Later in I'll be fettling The Panzer ready for next Fridays trip to Wales.

    In the meantime, let's all spare a thought for Arran who has now finished his holiday and has to go BACK TO WORK on Monday :P

    I'm on holiday :D

    Been out on a bicycle this morning, good fun but I can't see this mode of transport catching on, anyone else tried one of these?
    my isetta is a 300cc bike

    I dunno, I'm using one to get down Welsh hillsides this week coming. And wifey has just given the green light to go on Thursday as well, so it's a gravity double header HOLIDAY on Thursday and Friday for me.

    I thought Arran and Veronese would like to know about that :twisted:

    Evening skinny tyre lovers.

    Swimming lessons with the littlies this morning and then a trip to the library plus free tea from Waitrose 8)

    Chilling in the sun this afternoon.

    Evening all,
    Stevo, are you going to try for a 100ft back flip? If you do please make sure there's a video for us to laugh at. Actually even if you don't try it we'll be happy to laugh at the video. I don't have the kahunas for proper downhill any more, it takes too long to recover from the offs.
    Good day today, if a little expensive. Amongst the duller purchases I finally ordered my Cotic Solaris frame. Now need to sort the rest of it out.

    "Cotic Solaris frame with 29" wheels"...had to look that one up.

    Aren't 29ers herecy in your muddy world?

    Evening noork supports.

    Only 3 days of antibiotics (designed for elephants) to go and then hopefully get back on the two wheeled wagon without falling asleep in a ditch.

    Stevo: You/we need to go on another BB recruitment drive. At least GM and MC59 should be back in the mix soon.

    You bought a 29'er :shock: - aaargh, burn it with fire! :mrgreen:

    Any back flips will be purely unintentional - but there's a new jump track at Bike Park Wales to be tried so hopefully the 'Bromley Air Force' can see some action.

    [Edit - didn't know you used to do DH until you mentioned that. Respect 8) ]

    Yep, 29'ers are heresy. Veronese will be excommunicated shortly by the MTB Gods.

    I suppose I could post a few more pics from Wales to get some 'normal' people into BB? :)

    Not so sure about GM, I think his holiday might be a little longer than you think :wink:
