I've read that Alexa has much better voice recognition than other equivalents and gets more frequent updates.

Fist bumps.... ok
Fist pumps.... never!

Decking of wrecking
Structure of rupture

If the area of decking is within a semicircular recess covered with a hemispherical vault or semi-dome, Apse of prolapse.

Whereas moaning about the word "fixie" is the very definition of hedonism, obviously.

you are still sounding like fun

I have a spare room of doom, sometimes I decamp to the dining room, also of doom.

Maybe I should get a Gazebo of Gnar.

I really dont think the mad old Highlands dwelling beardie gives two hoots, what others think or do. He'll be off pottering about on some 1930's three speed thing with funny bars up a mountain looking like a deranged Santa Clause.

🙂
It's actually worse than that.

I've getting around been dressed in tights and going no-speeding. (Best not to visualise that.)

Taking my werewolfhound for 10km runs* in the mountains to build up her endurance so she can come singlespeeding with me once the snow comes.

*running as in slightly speedy shambling.

Starting threads and thread titles with 'So,...' it's the written equivalent of rising intonation. Just remove the so and the sentence will still make sense. Thank you.

If you were using a turbo trainer in a warehouse in the late 80s/early 90s and listening to dance music, E-ed off your nut, would it be a Pain Rave?

Finally a legitimate reason to wear a hi-viz jacket and a load of stupid LED lights on a bike 😉

Alliteration in finding alternatives to describe where one performs indoor cycling. At least Pain Cave has some assonance going on.

Hmm. Alliteration as a tedious trend or default in mountain biking nomenclature and description more generally. Mountain Mayhem for instance. Where are the mountains? And what exactly constitutes the mayhem?

Come to think of it, Turbo Trainer is simply a bad place to start. I give up and am off the the Badgering Barn to sweat out some sweetness.

1) Wearing World Champs jerseys or kit of teams that you're not a member of.

2) Claiming the above is somehow acceptable
