HTF is Edouard Louis Joseph Merckx (AKA The Cannibal) anyway?? Hour record?? Never heard of it.....

I tell people that my cousin was killed by a driver on a mobile phone. No cousins were harmed in the making of this lie but I love the look on people's faces.

I hate this one! Like when you slag off someones mum and they say 'my mum's dead actually' then you say, 'ahh shit sorry' then they say 'Nah she's not really dead dickhead.'

So how do you think they can make it more shocking? What do you think that will really drive it home?

They ran a billboard in manchester (beginning of the year?) of a real photo of a motorbike riders severed head after a crash, there was a big fuss afterwards because they didnt ask the family's permission or something, ill find the photo....

the £90 fine for phoning/texting here is a joke, people pay that much for petrol nowadays.

Well said, it is a fucking joke. Wish we had laws like that here but can't see it happening....

@ coppi that, I thinks its her neck snapping??

Is incredibly realistic.

Shocking enough, you've gotta be a fruitcake to text while driving anyway.

Wonder how many cyclists text on the bike?

Lily Cole looks like one of those Roswell aliens. One of the most overrated models ever.

You wouldn't kick her out of bed though would ya??

HTFU and get a 77 tooth.

"The authors of the study caution against inferring causality as the Daily Mail has done. Getting fatter won’t necessarily help you live longer, and as the researchers point out there is a difference between a long life and a healthy one. Being overweight has been clearly linked with heart disease and diabetes amongst other conditions, so anyone following the Mail’s advice would be putting themselves at risk of developing these afflictions."

Moving away from looks (what the majority of this thread has been about):

Excess weight was significantly associated with an increased risk of rapid cartilage loss. For a one-unit increase in BMI, the odds of rapid cartilage loss increased by 11 percent. No other demographic factors—including age, sex and ethnicity—were associated with rapid cartilage loss.
"As obesity is one of the few established risk factors for osteoarthritis, it is not surprising that obesity may also precede and predict rapid cartilage loss," Dr. Roemer said. "Weight loss is probably the most important factor to slow disease progression."

Bmi Thing is spot on, in defence of these skinny models gag2 wants gassed..... :)

They need to have a minimum BMI of 18 to be allowed to model in the big shows. Skinny and fat are not opposite sides of the same coin, anorexia is a serious condition but most fat people just like food too much.

I'd still like to see this lot covered in hydrolised vegetable oils. Dip me in honey and throw me in!

pushes away breakfast

Thanks for that :-/

Pm'd

Sure, to me (as one or two of you may realize), skinny is a pitiful condition, whereas Caribbean female shotputters, are the epitome of health.

And for some reason, though Lily Cole has clearly been half-starved by hate-filled parents, her red hair makes up somewhat for her ribs almost being an exo-skeleton.

Me, her, and a tub of something greasy. Yes indeed.* I guess I must be the weird one eh?*

I'm gonna have to agree mate if you think lily cole is starved (!) She's a stunner!!!!

I'll pass on the (bearded) shotputters thanks :)

nice pinarello

Cheers, it's a pain keeping the tape clean!

QV has deleted his post which I think is the right decision.

Anything to cheer you up will ;)

I haven't raced Crane, but most times I've ridden with him its felt like a race, he is probably faster than you so I would stop running your mouth ;)

Doubt it :)

Click 'pay with paypal' but don't log into your account.

Then you can pay with any card you like *

Come on ed, the wars over now.

Reduced *

You can probably get away with it for slow speeds but anythin over 23 mph gonna need a brake.

Have you ever raced crane?

Part of the reason people rave about having a shave at a barber, is that your face is prepped properly before the shave, which is 90% of the way to avoiding razor burn etc - if you replicate that at home, even a single blade disposible will do the job

+1 plenty of lather

i have only had 1 crash (which was my fault) that could have been avoided with a brake and i knew it was gonna happen about 10 feet before it did.

You must only ride @ 14mph everywhere then?

yes

It makes sense, you use the front brake more **"subtly" **than the rear, so having on the right (if you are right handed) makes sense.

That's bollocks, the only way to properly stop a bike at speed is grab the front brake (by itself) as hard as you can while leaning as far forwards as you can.
