I generally don't like people so my solution is riding at 07:30 so I don't have to have them in my way.  Try it if they bother you that much as you are the one with the problem not them.

Yep.

The question is though, what tyres for forum-turd-wheels?

That was a great rant, proof that capitalisation isn't essential, the emotion can be carried by spelling mistakes and repetition alone, kind of a passive aggressive approach. Good stuff.

Mister P, a solution to your problem: sell your Saracin to yourself for £5k, be sure to give a receipt. Tell people you own a £5k bike.

Wrong again,

So @jamj1974 has been funny all along? This really is confusing.

As it's still tea break I'll continue. Do love trail centres when bunch of rufty tuffty types offer Mrs Marin advice at top of downhill when shes catching her breath for her to launch down it top speed and dissapear. Oh the glory goes to the middle aged not the shouty people.

Cracking idea.  The £5k profit from the sale would come in handy.

For full effect shouldn't she let them go first then intimidate them by riding on their back wheel?

Saying that. I was riding at Cannock a couple of weeks ago.  Saw a woman walk down the entirety of the first bit of the Monkey, which is some fairly tight switchbacks - some with steps around the corners.  I asked if she had ridden the Monkey before as it had a few similar descents.  She got irate and pretty much suggested I had said this because she was a woman. Not at all.  I’m used to being passed by fitter and more skilled women - it happens!  I was. concerned because she had no confidence and/or capability for those type of trails and might injure herself...  I would have and have said the same to anyone!

I used to lust after a Raleigh Vector, it was the coolest thing ever. Like those horns that made various siren noises.

Damn I have appalling taste.

WTF is happening here? Was the OP attempting humour, but without having anything remotely humorous in the post? Or is he now saying this in a rather piss poor attempt to backtrack. Either way it’s great! We are getting back to STW standards.

How are things back in Canada Saxon?

Mrs Marin is far too polite to chase a back wheel even for a Scouse bird. Still racing downhill at 53! Really annoying when we load up the Transporter especially as I've got an Orange we meet all the hates doing that. She would politely listen to your advice though.

I’m not trying to insult you here, Phil.  I’m confused by some of your recent posts.  Not sure what you are trying to get across - what the point might be and no, not the ones responding to my comments.

Basically that he’s cleverer than all of us muggles, he knew exactly the reaction his post would get, that’s why he tried posting it again, but with ebikes attracting his impotent wrath, to show us all how beneath him we all are by reacting. Except it was removed, as no one likes dull and predictable, boringly average trolling.

But let's be honest  people joined in with some interesting less dull posts than your usual.

The full spectrum of users on this board, got to put out there  what the hell they feel like.

You just join in with the same tired old shit.

I probably do join in with that same tired old shit.  I am not the worlds greatest original thinker - and don’t pretend to be.  I am a fairly predictable, left-wing, socially liberal man in my mid-forties.  If I was going to change myself or change the world - it would have happened by now.

You're in your 40s and never changed jam? Do your clothes flex anymore or are they more a rigid permanent structure by now?

I’m practically an obelisk now.😉

No, of course I have changed and adapted as life has gone on.  What I meant, was that I am unlikely to become some wildly unpredictable person who behaves in totally unexpected ways.  I’m not a person who is likely to drastically change.
