You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
IE, the list you keep of people who, come the revolution, will be first against the wall..
Some bloke just sauntered past me in the airport:
1 Panama hat
2 Sloppy jacket
3 Long sleeved shirt with double cuffs, unfolded, sticking out of the end of his jacket sleeves
4 Skinny jeans, but not properly skinny
5 Trainers, he ain't a yoof..
6 Beard, half arsed unkempt look, not trimmed and styled, nor proper wild man.
Maybe he's a very nice chap, but judging by looks, no he's a t*t.
Am I allowed to be so mean and judgemental on personal styling choices.
Maybe he's thinking the same about me?
Oh Christ, just walked by again.... Leather man bag...
Don't you have a magazine or a book to read?
given the amount of people on this forum who claim not to care a jot about fashion, there's a surprising amount of hatred for people who wear the wrong clothes 😕
Come the revolution my first job will be to hire soem brickies to build a longer wall. No one as made it onto the list today but some have made sure they will not loose their place.
Is it Hannibal lecter
People who type loose when they mean lose 😉
I mean loose.
No people for me today but can I add mosquito's to the list please? Might need a longer wall and a different type of weapon for that one.
Anyone that heaps scorn on people for looking different.
Barry Scott. I'm taking that **** out.
Today and everyday it would be the people responsible for the Mail and the Express who make money by feeding the fears and prejudices of their readership - I think they're at least partly responsible for how intolerant and cynical some corners of society have become.
Only name on my list is MuppetWrangler.
Anyone that doesn't
a) brim their tank every time they fill up
b) use pay at pump where available
Not a person, but a product. Sadly, you can't put code up against a wall and gap it.
Unless it's on a hard disk.
Hmmmm.
If anyone needs me, I'll be looking up range usage guidelines.
a) brim their tank every time they fill up
If they're filling up then they are brimming the tank?
People who drive at 40mph even once they enter 30mph limit.
Whereas Captain Dapper is wondering who is this salty seadog wandering around the airport in yellow wellies, old jeans an itchy blue roll neck jumper and a waxy flat cap.
I still don't understand the hate here for chinos & polo shirts. I'd get gunned-down immediately by you lot!
1) Tucked in or hanging out?
2) What footwear?
3) Jumper over shoulders?
Makes a big difference 🙂
Who the hell tucks a polo shirt in?!
Shoes; usually brown with chinos. No brogues or such like, just Clarks.
No jumper over shoulders either, but liking it as an idea. Peach coloured, yes? 😀
I still don't understand the hate here for chinos & polo shirts. I'd get gunned-down immediately by you lot!
Nah you wouldn't. Cycling is the new golf, remember?
Pink I believe...
Anyway, you've passed with flying colours. The upturned collar, tucked in, bare feet in deck shoes finished off with a jumper cape look does not. Ra!
Splendid 🙂

I'm sure my foul mouthed parrot and uncontrollable monkey are really pissing him off too...
Aharrrghhh!
Driving with a brimfull tank is inefficient because you are carrying the weight of the unneeded fuel
Whoever decided to print the dartmoor route guide many issues back and included a route from Postbridge with a section s of bellever which was, by and large, just an unpleasant walk with a bike. And whoever has the power to cause mass extinction of horse flies and has decided not to wield it.
You should probably discipline your monkey then seadog. Somehow.
Only name on my list is MuppetWrangler.
And I thought it was only my mum that thought I was special.
🙂
The ginger haired girl at Danby show today who's hair was basically a rendition of an explosion in a mattress factory.
Various people at work for various idiotic things not least of which is expecting me to be a bloody mindreader.
b) use pay at pump where available
Not an option with a fuel card.
I don't harbour angst or ill will on anyone, well not today.
Tomorrow looks like the Rain God, he can have it full force if it pisses down when i'm out riding the CX'er in Epping..
🙄
People who pretend they don't judge people by the way they look. Up against the wall, hippies.

Utterly crestfallen now 😥
Anyone that doesn't

In the states at the moment. I'd like to nominate the person who came up with pre-pay. $40 only put in 3/4 of a tank.
Our HR department. In fact anyone who works in HR anywhere(apologies if that's anyone on here!), never met one who wouldn't sell their granny down the river to get on.
Today its the guy in the blue Audi who decided to try and overtake me on my bike when we were on a single lane road and I was going the same speed as the ambulance that was 4 feet in front of me . so annoying I even memorised his number plate until I got to work and bigger things happened.
The only person is that total **** who sings that honey I'm good song.
**** off ,if you need a computer to make you sing that bad on a really shit song, take a hint.
The music business is not for you.
I don't mind auto-tuned pop crap at the moment - Selena Gomez must be a pretty terrible singer, they've tweaked her so much the poor girl is singing about 'farting carrots'.
People who pretend they don't judge people by the way they look. Up against the wall, hippies.
No pretence here. I definitely judge people by the way they look, I just judge the weirdos and misfits a little bit higher than everyone else.
Two entries now.
😉
Yay, both barrels.
Two today , First the clown in his 320d BMW rep mobile who thought 3rd to sliproad in 50 yards at 80 mph was a good idea, may he get poor sales figures and be fired
Secondly the random couple deciding to make out on the local bridal way killing any Strava glory and causing at least 2 weeks less usage from the rear tyre
Anyone that doesn't
a) brim their tank every time they fill up
b) use pay at pump where available
Always fill up completely.
Never use pay at pump. The receipts are too small and fiddly, and either too crap to read, don't come out of the machine at all, or small enough to get lost before the VAT return gets done.
couple deciding to make out on the local bridal way
No sex before marriage, eh?
Normally I'd have a list full of numbskulls and their shocking behaviour. Today though ... drum roll ... winner of c_g's Gent of the Day is the lovely man who took pity on a cyclist and let me cross a busy A road. What a star and wish there were more like you. 8)
The person in the s-max who I flashed out as I approached a red light at a cross roads. He was parked to my right at a cash machine pointing the wrong way on double yellows with his indicator on... They pulled away driving on the wrong side of the road through a red light at a crossroads! 😯 😯 😯
I MUST get a dash cam for these glue sniffing radgies. Total lunatic manoeuvre.
The fat bastard at cannock who went over his bars and ran out of steam...
customers, at work...most of them.
stupid questions, read the instructions before you go and rip your customers off.
The fool who started a thread about a bike shop aledgedly tripping his mate off on a pair of forks and not detailing the whole truth of the matter, top of the list, and the bike retailer top of the list for good customer service to an annoying customer.

What? Spank my monkey? In public?
I agree. I'd be very suspicious of people who will wear shoes but not trainers.
Wearing shoes is just peculiar.
Tractor driver with the spikey things on the front pointing at my face who would give no quarter on a single track road, neither put it on the verge no slowed.
I know where the farm is and there's quite a long wall so I recommend a round up and starting there.
Arrrgh the mod deleted my post for swearing. And quite right too. Just to restate:
Remove trainers from your list immediately. It's people who wear shoes you should worry about, as many somehow feel they are above trainer wearers. I cannot understand why anyone would ever wear shoes unless:
a - they are going to court
b - they are forced to by their workplace
c - they require safety shoes
d - they are trying to impress a girl in a nightclub that does not allow trainers. But then... why even go there, it's obviously not a cool venue.
God I hate shoes. I mean, what if a random game of football breaks out.... what then?
I've developed a hatred, a real one now, for people driving Chelsea tractors especially for their unnecessary short commute to school / work. Totally unjustified waste of energy.
And especially more those doing so with upturned polo shirt collars or panama hats.
Malvern Rider IS the invisible man
FACT
The bawbag ned who decided to stove in the main door of our tenement yesterday evening. Still raging has we'd had a new door/entry system a month ago
and WTF is wrong with shoes?!
Myself. For not locking the office door when I left last night. 😳
Cue mucho alarm triggering and p*ss*d off security and colleagues. 😐
its the nobs in train stations dragging them little ****y wheelie suitcases about with their telescopic handles, quite often with a matching laptop bag perched on top like they're really important who i dream about pushing in front of the next tube! they probably use umbrellas too 👿

its the nobs everywhere dragging them little noisy wheelie suitcases about that get speed wobble at about 5mph, with their flexible telescopic handles, quite often with/without a matching laptop bag perched on top like they're really important, often found either in full chat "gerrrouttovmeway" mode or "ohhhI'mooootforapootle" mode or "erm,whereamI?" mode
FIFY and enhanced
Also I'd like to offer up my Mrs. Last night she was defrosting the Fridge/Freezer, well actually it was most of yesterday afternoon too, and she had buckets and sponges and cloths all crammed into teeny crevasses and along the skirtingboard. Took bloody ages, spent all last night fiddling and getting up off the sofa and in/out of the kitchen about 100 times. Then before bed she decided to take the trays out and get them in the sink, clearly these things are frozen solid so what did she do? Ohhh yes, she then started to chisel the ice away with a screwdriver and it took her until 3am to get into bed. By which time she'd not only woken me up from hours of disturbed sleep but then woke my up completely and I couldn't drop back off again. I then get up for work at 7 to be asked "why are you getting up so early?"
Today I offer up my Mrs. 😈
Only one today, then I haven't been out and about today.
They had parked, legally, but in a really stupid spot, making pulling out of a junction on to a busy road, just up from a second junction, nearly impossible.
Grrr..
I'm going with everyone visiting the Edinburgh Fringe.
Piemonster - you beat me to it!
Getting through Edinburgh's city centre during "Dog****er season" drives me nuts every year; that and the over officious attitude of the Tattoo stewards who seem to think that grown adults should not be allowed to cross the "closed to traffic " road. GRRRR!
Except I have to tolerate the whole shenanigans cause that's who I work for!
Anyone who walks with there face in their phone near a busy roads, are you going to just walk out in front of my 2 1/2 tonnes of car or stop that is the question. FFS
