  • I dont eat pizza because I can't eat dairy

    Ummm...

    27 Dairy-Free Pizza Recipes That Will Make You Proud!

  • If we are dredging I want to know how the weeks of African drumming lessons went.

    (See previous page)

  • This, so many box wrenches. The only part on any of my bikes requiring a box wrench is the bleed nipple on my Hope brakes, which is 8mm, which this tool doesn’t have.

  • Spoke keys look like you’d get about 1/27th of a turn then hit the adjacent spoke.

  • My wife bought me 4 tubs of muc off chamois creme... i guess after 30 + years of marriage seeing less of me on a daily basis is a present to herself.

  • or she saw the state of your bottom?

  • four tubs?! Is your gooch like some kind of tropical rainforest?

  • Or red like a baboon.

  • Me too, I have little drummer boy going through my head now.

  • She's seen the state of my arse for many years now. She now just wants it further away these days.

  • Probably more like the the forest surrounding Chernobyl straight after the disaster with a smattering of radioactive dusty residue...

  • Perhaps that's why traffic stops when i bend over?

  • For the benefit of the tape this picture wss raken Christmas morning...

  • Unsurprisingly the course got cancelled because there was no other interest.
    They were going to run another one and let me know but I never heard from them again.
    That was a bit of a blessing.
    My family got a refund and bought me a bottle of I assume really nice whisky with it. I had given up alcohol a while before so I still have that for guests and emergencies.
    It remains unopened as I have had neither.
    Still have the drum. I use it as an ornament and conversation piece.
    In a strange twist I joined a samba band for a few days in the XR rebellion in April. There I discovered I have absolutely no sense of rhythm or timing.
    I won't be doing that again.
    This year they got me a pair of Jeans. Terrible things to cycle in though.

  • Sorry but I am English, wtf is a ‘box wrench’? and no I will not just fncking google it.

  • Got a musical biscuit barrel.

  • Well, it is a very good chamois cream, but it's also the biggest tub on the market to start with...

  • I got a 12 year old Bunnahabhain. Fucking delicious and takes the edge off the array of garish socks that accompanied it.

    No cycling-specific gifts for the first time in a long time, which is good as I'm a selfish cunt and look after my own needs. Shite like that spanner ^ just upsets me.

  • One of these.

  • Presently I consider myself a major shareholder in muc off

  • Not a tool that gets commonly used on a bike is what it is.

  • I got a t shirt that says MALE CYCLIST in huge letters across the front.
    I think it's supposed to be ironic.

  • Yep got one of these too. It’s going to linger in my rucksack for emergencies.

  • I got a book called 50 Places To Bike Before You Die. It's not shit, but 50% of the routes are in the USA, a place I will/can not go to. The other places are a bunch of places I've been to or the info is no use to me e.g. go here, pitch a tent or get a B&B while cycling 35 miles daily, which ain't particularly how I roll.

    But it was bought by fucking great people who love/tolerate me and put thought into it. So, I will get no use out of this book, but I will continue to love these people. But if anyone thinks they'd use the book, PM me...
