2009-01-24 Sat - The Tweed Run I

Who said they were going to vandalise anything? Is vandalising something really that similar to the death of innocent women and children?

EDIT: I don't want to discuss this topic on this wonderful thread. Or on this forum for that matter. I know I brought it up, wish I hadn't/

Let's get back on topic (as much my fault as anyone's, I know)

^^INDEED!

Speaking of which, no one commented on this:

What should I change? I'd quite like it done as a spoke card but don't have a laminating machine.

Also, cunt. Not to anyone, just saying in general and for good measure. Fuck too.

:D

All this Gaza protest bullshit is so fucking stupid. How can you be anti war and vandilise at the same time?!

You've just vandalised the English language, sir, and I have money on you being anti-war. So don't disapppoint us now.

No way! Tweed is for luddites! Strictly Nylon for me.

[please be flammable.. please be flammable...]

Are we going futuristic / modern for the bikes? I have a canary yellow alu Condor road bike that I'm tempted to use, but my fixed Surly is a better team for tweed.

well, we can all easily change into tweed by going to 2nd hand shop and spend easily 20 quid, but for bike is a different matter, doubt everyone in the list will have a classic looking bike, especially within a budget!

as for period bike I should really use my brompton it would be the bees knees don't you know...it's just right but I feel fixed is more the bike of the day no given this forum and all?

mine the same, but if I get the mutton chop done before the ride, and then trimmed it off after the ride, she's fine with that.

I wish I tried an under beard the other wek shot down in flames :(

Being Asian I'm going to feel weird tweeded-up with all you Colonial memsahibs.

Perhaps I should come in contemporary Gurkha garb... or a Twerban.

And, no, I'm not carrying your fucking luggage.

My clothing isn't quite period but I'm sure I'll fit in...

The bottle on that Olmo's sexual.

You've just vandalised the English language, sir, and I have money on you being anti-war. So don't disapppoint us now.

Or maybe I'm just slightly dyslexic nad hate pointless violence?

Racist! ;)

Took pictures of a Ghurka based protest. I know very little about the subject but:

I love it but if you could change it to 'A friend in tweed is a friend indeed' it would be a bit more apt for the ride..

If you do intend on printing this up as a spoke card there are a few people that can help you, just post up a new thread about it in general..

We have a spoke card already Charco is making up.

The one on the first page right?

Is there any harm in having two?

Yes.. the universe will implode when the two spoke cards touch.

well yes there is actually. we're selling the spoke cards for £2 which includes a ticket for a prize raffle, with funds going to bikes4africa

Fair enough, I just really liked the other design too

Get on the signing-on sheet, then.

I'm not committing unless I find some tweed.

in your size????????????????

Nah.. in yours ya muppet.

Surely they made tweed tents?

I have two wardrobes full of Hippy size clothing including tweed. You're welcome. I need to throw it out to make room for the slag's hipster apparel.

Damn, JD didn't have any tweed in-store today..trek for nothing! Oh well I'll rign up tomorrow. Otherwise where are people getting their tweed plus fours?

I'm not committing unless I find some tweed.

I said 'signing-on sheet' because it sounded as if you thought this was like a race for lycra wearers. Just thought I'd make it easy for you.

With tweed, of course, you have to enter your name on the roll.
