Mod can't merge threads anymore however.
He does need to speak more slowly. Means he can say less. Does occasionally feel like I'm being bombarded.
Bit calmer would be nice too, but I get that new fans need to feel like it's pant wettingly exciting.0 -

Dear Ned,

More like killer-metre, I reckon. But yeah, it should follow in the same vein as kilogramme, kilohertz, kilobyte. No idea why so many people say kill-OM-etre.0 -

I really hope this is true.
From time to time we've had some posters with excellent insight and/or experience (gottheteeshirt2 and BriSmithy) who've drifted away. Maybe we'll have some new ones.
Lionel Birnie was the first person I followed on twitter... (wipes tear away)0 -

I'm sure Lionel Birnie was a member here years ago and used to post. Or it could've been Bikeradar's predecessor (was it Cycling Plus forum?)0 -
My mistake, it was Edward Pickering.
There have been 147 people join since him. Quite amazing the amount of new usernames that sign up to this site every day.Contador is the Greatest0 -

Let's put this one to bed.You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.0 -
What about Sean Kelly?
I'll have to listen again but
Kill omatar or Keel oh meeter are the ways my countrymen mangle the word.
