  1. Teen fiction or travel guide? Agreed on the tint though. Wicked lid, btw/.
  2. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nooooooooooooooo! Neighbour is an 84 year old woman who looks 115! MUST. PURGE. MIND!!!
  3. based upon your here-fore mentioned website and my response I suggest you bookmark TGND... http://thegirlnextdoor.tumblr.com/
  4. Add to that - the 7 - 10km isn't distance - it's ELEVATION. 7,000 to 10,000 m of elevation change in a day. That's a bucket load. Also why I really really really wanna go myself.
  5. Indeed. Also - if you're not breathless at the bottom, you ride like a fairy. I've had sessions where I am literally panting at the bottom of a ride due to the intensity of the descent and how hard it's been going. Having said that, Omega (and I) are about as fit as your average garden variety panda. And Omega could handle it!
  6. Just wanna get in before the flame war starts. Yes, it is reasonable but there's also an element of give and take that needs to happen. Sadly, some people only seem to find the need to take, and this is a case in point on the part of the mtber. I presume. Just on the pedis bike. Peds can actually change direction faster. It's just a side step that needs to happen, and that happens in far less distance than it would take for an MTB to change direction what with the speed and wheel base etc. As for the attitude thing, agreed. Stick up the ass is normally a problem. Personally, I try to give way. The biker is the faster machine and with that comes a bit of responsibility and he cannot just go like a freight train expecting all and sundry to get out of his way. Especially if you were on the lhs of the road as you were walking and him on the same side as you (his rhs). Unspoken rule is pretty much keep left or get out the way if you have someone coming in the opposite direction.
  7. You kidding!? Love these things! We use them all the tiime in tokai. THE single most versatile tool there is. Root chopper, compactor, bench-cutter, rake, smoother, the lot! I thought they'd stopped making them! Pain or Shine - Ping pain or shine!
  8. Ja, Flowta, I thought Patches was being a bit doff...
  9. ROFL. Don't worry, it's Friday. Personally, I hope to get on my bike for the first time in a month tomorrow morning. This darn flu has been with me for a month now, and my BP was STILL high yesterday...
  10. NICE! Don't you mean France in 2014 though? Cos it's getting pretty damn close to when you need to be going. Or have you already made plans with the Patchy One?
  11. Flow would be worth it if you ride AM or DH or are heavier (as in over 90kilos) due to the extra width. Arch for you.
  12. Lol. Dude, i know. But knowing me, id take something i'm not ready to do and do a Richard...
