Good morning gentleman of the BB. Much to my dismay I was overtaken twice on my morning commute but I managed to convince my ego I was taking it easy and could have taken the b@stards had I wished. Loads of work to do today so if I'm seen hanging about these forums please tell me to get back to work! Laters.Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0

Morning folks,
Funny morning, lovely and sunny out though. Had a bit of a run in with a native of Feltham on the way in, had to pass me as I was slowing for a red. I really should know better than to make sarcastic comments to the locals it's never going to end well. This has been somewhat mitigated by the cup of tea a colleague has just made me which is being consumed with a double chocolate muffin. Delicious. I should probably go and put long trousers on soon and pretend to do some work.0 -
Morning fellow slackers
Lovely sunny start to autumn here, fingers crossed it continues.
I have a rep coming in, conveniently at lunch time, so I think the meeting might well be over the road in the pub, otherwise not a great deal happening other than making sure that Sean does some work for a change and doesn't waste his day on here
Tonight I need to put a new tyre on Mrs 77's road bike, been meaning to do it for a few weeks but this Sunday's Ride 4 Frimley event makes it a bit more pressing now

Good morning rancid shirkers of the BB. Really pi$$ed me off today when I was overtaken by a couple of kids on BMX's on my morning commute but I managed to book in some therapy sessions. I was eyeballs out cursing at the b@stards. Loads of work to pretend to do today so if I'm seen hanging about these forums please tell me to get back to my Etch-a-sketch and re-arranging the My Little Pony stable! Laters.
[Edited for the realistic]
Carry a stick with you and jam it in their front wheels if they pass you. Oh, I heard somewhere that you should avoid cycling through Feltham.
A latte followed by Apple pie and ice cream for breakfast. F*ck the lot of them. Just about to jump on the rollers for an hour or so as it's raining. Might get the winter bike out of the loft later and actually clean the thing.

Feltham should just be avoided. I was once on the phone querying an order with CRC, bloke on the phone with a strong Northern Irish accent asked me if the dogs still carry flick knives it's so rough around here. Considering they kneecapped people for giggles around there I thought that quite telling.[ Oh, I heard somewhere that you should avoid cycling through Feltham.0 -
Good 20k ride into work this morning and nobody overtook me although I did draft a young lady on the way in for a mile or two before I decided to overtake
Car research continues, looks like I'll be going test driving this weekend. Got a few contenders lined up for the privilege of being the next Stevo skip."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0 -
I'm assuming the lads that overtook me were a couple of pros out on a training ride, there's no other explanation.Good morning rancid shirkers of the BB.

Tucking into some chicken and low fat cottage cheese, washed down with some beetroot juice. My urine has been coming out pink lately, should I be worried?
But more importantly, what the f@ck was V68 doing in Feltham this morning?Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0 -

Only 3 possibilities:
1. Touting for business
2. Pimping
3. Drug dealing
4. Pimping up drug dealer wagons.
Or all 5.
Keep drinking the beetroot juice, you'll definitely live longer and you could frighten a mate for a wind up.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -

Well done. You passed Stevo's minion exam although it hasn't shifted you from the bottom of the list.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0

What is the short list Stevo? Skoda Octavia x5
Unlike you old timers, I don't cycle to work, instead I drove to Warrington for a meeting before returning via M&S for some lunch and a jam doughnut.
Not sure if I want to mtb tonight on my tod or if I should just watch bad tv and except my place in life.

Just been to have a look at a potential new car with MrsHD. When it's too good to be true it generally is, CAT D with a new paint job which I could have done better with my tongue.Advocate of disc brakes.0

I work in Hanworth, a less posh suburb of Feltham. To think we used to be based in Richmond. :roll:But more importantly, what the f@ck was V68 doing in Feltham this morning?
Nowhere decent round here for lunch so I've just been to Twickenham to have lunch with the Mrs. Probably a new record at 6 minutes to get there. Rather less motivation for the return leg resulted in doubling my outbound time.
New record for me. 30th out of 1300, not bad for an old fool wearing jeans.0 -

It's ^ a 'spitzenclasse' apparently.
@Stevo. Mazda 6 has a V6. When you get into that rev band of 2500 to 4500, it goes like a rocket and this becomes addictive... surefire license killer.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -

If you live in Shropshire that's probably quite a pragmatic viewpoint.

V68 has spent his time going around in circles, the rest is self explanatory. Theoretically, you could also measure the amount of hair laid end to end that he has self extracted...seanoconn - gruagach craic!0
