[QUOTE=Donut!;659550]JD- what part of 'stinking cold' did you not understand ;)

JD- what part of 'stinking cold' did you not understand ;)

Overandout - err . . yes. Was doing silly things in the skatepark and smashed my ankle bone (inside of leg) on my rear axle, it's all black & blue :(

well at least you did it doing something worthwhile (?), not just walking down the stairs to the tube or something. me just busted a finger muckin around with bar spins which is mildly annoying....

...smashed my ankle bone (inside of leg) on my rear axle...

Did that just before xmas, it sucked, heal up soon dude. On the plus side I found general riding on it after the first 10 days was okay.

Oliver, I thinks its the North's lot that are immune to Swain's flu, its all the other compass points that seem to suffer... ;)

Got my barspins pretty much down, I just need a 650 front wheel now so I can do them on my bike. I was doing a turn down revert thingy, coming down a transition in a backwards wheelie and foot slipped out myof pedal.

Will be back on the bike in a few days coz nothing (that I know of) is broken :)

Nice one, yeah I just got a 650 a few weeks back, chuffed with it, hence the mucking about. hi flange campag nuovo hub (off ebay £12.50) on Mavic CXP14. laced 3X nice and strong. no probs yet....

No! HTFU! Got full lower leg tattooed the other week felt like death shaking the same night next night was riding my bike!

The Guinnes is better at Norths!

Not much of a Guinness man normally but may as well give it a shot, stereotypes FTW! =D

Cider FTW

Do you want a 650c spinergy its a tub though?

of course he bloody has!.... lol

(I'll shut up and get back to work now.)

Overandout, you are the owner of the most ominous avatar on the forum.

Im finding it quite disconcerting.

aw thanks Balki, youre a real peach...
will I be talking even more shit tonight with you over a pint of the blessed discovery?

I keep scrolling back up to see if anything has happened!!! Im suffering anxiety.

Would love to man but I got back from Oz last night and Im a shambles. Woke up at 3:40am this morning and couldnt get back to sleep before work. Running on empty.

Have a good one guys.

Hmmm, not sure bout Spinergy's, they look far too weak for the abuse I've been giving my wheels. Think I'd snap it. You can sell me your Corima tho!

Listen if i can fuck around on the spinergy im sure you can! But as for the corima you would certainly kill it in 2 seconds flat! The spinergy is pretty tough! I found some nice 650c rims at the jumble! But i have enough!

Quite happy to build a wheel, or just buy one. I have been offered a Deep V 650 Radially laced to a Goldtec for £80 with spare tyre, I'm considering it but need to find some more cashola first.

Go on, give me your Corima! You know ya wanna ;)

Good effort on the Brighton ride lads - Especially Stringerman - 90 miles as a first long ride including bitchling... have the legs recovered? I'm possibly gonna ride down again this Saturday... it's about 65 miles from the flask without navigation failures!

Duncan - I know I'm quite squeamish, but that really sounds pretty gruesome... get well soon.

Fucking punctures - can't remember the last one and then 4 in the last 3 days. I actually thought I was going to make it up again tonight, but no - fresh out of tubes and patches.

better late than never..

Go on, give me your Corima! You know ya wanna ;)

No i dont! Anyway you will kill it and i want to ride it!

Lucky I ran into arvy on the way home tonight or I'd have not bothered and would've been stuck at home watching Barca not thrash Chelsea. Good to see a decent turnout, even tho' it seemed to be at the expense of a minor celeb.

Apologies for not managing much in the way of formal introductions, if anyone's trying to put a face to the name it's the baldy/beardy/gingery one.

Were you wearing a trackie or football top?

Both I guess, it being a Juve tracky top. Was there another baldy/beardy/ginger there? I hate not being special.
