Leaving a bike on a kickstand for ages

  • In other news I left the turbo flywheel engaged over the weekend and it left a dent in the tyre.

    Am I going to die if I ride the turbo?

    Undoubtedly and most painfully I am afraid.

    Whatever happens, can you take a video of the event?

    Send it to us, and we'll do the montage and post-processing. May even share some profits with the widow!

    OT: Why does she always look so smug? It's creepy, especially considering I cycle often in front of their HQ.

    Oh yeah. Doesn't she look like him.
  • I had a dream last night. I dreamt that I attached a second kickstand to the drive side of the bike so that it would stand vertically rather than lean at an angle. In the dream I wasn't able to actually ride the bike because the drive-side kickstand fouled the pedals. But at least the bike was vertical and I didn't wake up in a sweat. It was a lovely dream.

    Well, yes.
  • Surely it's not a kickstand , it's just a bike stand. If you kick it , your bike will fall over.
    Can we rename it " Stand " so the pain will stop !

    That for the 2nd or more time, the person has not gained summat.

    Happy to be of service.
  • Am I wasting your time , or am I a waster ?
    I need to paint my hall I can't choose between burnt stone , almost oyster or Egyptian silk. I asked the guy in B and Q who suggested nutmeg , what a goon. I stared open mouthed at him. Can he not see I want a sepia tone ? And before you suggest dripping bleach into my eyes , not window paining acid as this would have too dramatic effect , stop and think , have I just part wasted your time ?
    Anyway back to the paint , silk or Matt , and what colour ?
    Thanks in advance.

    WTF? How did I get into this? Or do you intend to lull me into a false sense of security by agreeing with all my MASSIF posts, befriend me, get me back to your pad on a pretence of having Nina there ready to serve me pork scratchings then kill me and paint your house with my blood, using my entrails as comedy yet artisan draft excluders whilst using my fine, fine luscious hair as your own personal wig and masterbatory device?

    You're frickin' weird. I ain't hanging out with you EVER EVER and don't come round these parts no more or you're up for a sorting out.

    Yeah. Then your house can look like you've vomited carrot soup all over it.

    Black a la Adrian Mole. Now that's what you want.

    I'm really quite worried about you.

  • If you're selling your house it's magnolia. Cheap tidy up to give a clean impression. If you're living there for longer then up to you. Even carrot vomit if that's your taste.

    What the hell's wrong with carrot vomit colour?

    Carrot soup once made me ill. Or at least I was ill then ate carrot soup and well that colour isn't nice when it covered the bathroom wall!

    Sorry about my honesty but I have colour tested it!
  • Dulux Moroccan Gold 046: such a pretty colour for a kickstand.

    I didn't know carrot's could vomit. Always an education this place.

    Didn't you know? That's how carrot soup is made.

    Don't touch oxtail soup! Hint, no oxtail in it. Explains why it tastes so sh1t though.

    I like the way your spelling mistake has made it sound like TDNFNATN is part of a 1970s punk band.

    Sorry, Neurons. So I figured FNATN is from Nina and the neurons. TDF = ?
