Fucking democrats...

It's just because hippy is, like, rad.

Is this another German thing, or have I just made a pun-spotting faux-pas?

Or erm, fahren nicht?

The latter. Nothing to do with German.

Don't waste your energy, mooks.

hippy is, like, rad = hippy is lycra'd

Fucking embarrassing, ja.

'Lycra'd'. Clad in Lycra.
Oliver.
Fuck off with puns like that.
I know you won't mind, etc etc...

Do I at least get half a mark for knowing that 'rad' is German for bike?

I thought that was 'Helga'?

Radler izt gut, ja n shizzle ma nizzles.

Pink! You OK?

This sounds as if it could be fun. Put me down for it.

Fucking democrats...

It's "laterally stiff" you fool!

Ah, so that's how you spell it!

Just had an interesting conversation... one of the things that came out of it was girls. As in... where applicable (clothing, accessories, etc) we should try and have both a boy and girl review something. Apparently boobs are an issue (who'd have thought it! Bag straps, jackets, etc) as are other general proportions, angles of cuts, etc...

Put me down for some of that

Tell us why. In the form of a review of your experiences of using them.

There's no need for a review really, its simple, the kind of stuff I do on my bike on a regular basis would be dangerous in cycling shoes using clipless pedals.
I often need to "bail out" of situations when doing wall rides, wheelies, tricks etc, and if you need to jump off of the bike or remove your feet suddenly, its often far easier and safer in clips/straps and normal shoes, than SPDS/cycling shoes where you are far more likely to stay attached to the bike, or indeed have less grip on your shoes should you need to jump off the bike thanks to cleats, hard soles etc.

Plato basically said that democracy doesn't work because most voters are idiots..

"When it comes to Eastertide chocolate, the fixed gear cyclist's choice has to be Lindt's 'Chocolate Bunny' range. Fashioned from 100% Swiss chocolate, tailored 'all milky' for the British palate, it comes in three edible sizes: small, medium and greedy. Foil-wrapped in gold and silver, the bunnies are perky and coquettish; naked, they are subdued and dignified, quietly forgiving you the oral carnage wreaked about their person.

But what makes Lindt Bunnies the choice for the fixed gear cyclist? Well, put simply: they're bomb-proof. They're the Phil hubs, the Chris headsets, the Paul cranks of Easter treats. In a recent test, two of LFGSS.com's sweatiest riders went head-to-head and arse-over-tit in an all out collision scenario, carrying 16 medium Lindt bunnies apiece in their Archie's Grobags. The result? Whilst both riders hit the deck, one landing on his bunny-filled bag, the other landing in a heap on top of him with his bike and bag flying everywhere, each sustaining bodily injuries of groan-inducing severity - as well as one rider's chopped risers being rendered mini-moustaches on impact - the bags were opened to reveal that* not a single Lindt Bunny *had been affected by the incident. Where 32 bunnies had stood in packaging, 32 bunnies remained - not one of them having succumbed to "shop soiled" status. Amazing. For the discerning fixed gear rider who wants a chocolate treat that can be stacked on again and again, the Lindt Bunny is, quite simply, FTW."

hehe...funny cos it's true! :)

I'm glad to hear you are both ok.
ish....
see you for the ride.

^^^ PJ - whilst sketchy (i'm glad you're alright) my missus just read your post whilst i was away from the laptop..... she was in stitches. Frickin' hilarious.
Lindt Dark bunnies FTW!!!

Do I at least get half a mark for knowing that 'rad' is German for bike?

A quarter of a mark. "Rad" actually only means 'wheel', and the proper word for 'bike' is "Fahrrad", but this often gets shortened to "Rad".

Don't waste your energy, mooks.

hippy is, like, rad = hippy is lycra'd

Fucking embarrassing, ja.

Commed. :)

With eloquence like that you can see why Plato's work has endured. ;-)
