Any question answered...

I heard that rats didn't even exist until 1950. They were invented by the Russians as spy tools during the Cold War, but they were unable to contain the chewing menace even when they kept them in titanium containers. One day they chewed right through the metal and escaped in swarms, even chewing through the core of the earth to spread to other continents. That's what I heard.

Don't we share a high percentage of our genes with vermin?

I heard that you're never more than 3 genetic codons away from rat DNA.

Ferret were used to build aeroplanes, FACT.

"Don't we share a high percentage of our genes with vermin?"

I work with a couple of guys, who are an exact match.

Don't we share a high percentage of our genes with vermin?

well 95% of human DNA is shared by bananas...

Fruit!

Hmmm. Suddenly the question "Are you a man or a mouse?" doesn't hold much water.

I heard that Cliff Richard is actually a swarm of rats dressed in people clothes and that he chews through your mind with inane Christmas shite.

Cliff Richard is nothing but an angel!

You're thinking of a bucket, I suggest

^^ Ah fuck, I seem to have left my brain in Beckenham.

853 or 931?

953

853

you were asking what I've got, yeah?

Ryan suggested making the chainstays out of 931 so that if they chipped they would not rust.

I said this sounded like a good idea, he went to find the price, then came back to me and said that Reynolds are promoting 931 at the moment, so it would be (relatively speaking) cheap to do the whole frame in 931.

So, wondering about it.

why not?

how do I take out a restraining order?

why not?

It's more expensive- adds around 30% to the price.

pft, it's only money. You've got the chance, you'll regret it if you don't. Especially as I have the feeling your going to be riding your Oak a lot more than the Cannondale once it's finished.

931 is awesome.

A fallen angel, Mick, a fallen angel ...

This.

931 is a hundred billion hot dog awesome.

Sound recent as he did not offer such option when I went to place a deposit, needless to says there's no reason whatsoever why I should not be happy with 853.

Plus, you got the great option of clearcoating it, 953.931 look better than chrome.

The idea is to make an "all weather" fast road bike, and given the British climate you are quite correct in that it's likely to get a lot more use than the "no rain" bike.

I think he meant that you'll be enjoying your Oak as much as your Cannondale, which I'm fairly certain you will.

I now can understand why you didn't like the Boardman, as your description fit how my Genesis ride.
