  1. 3.5hr solo ride on christmas morning....wind and rain. supid? yes!
  2. xt lighter, but find sram more durable. you can use either with sram/shimano comb
  3. you know this is a bicycle forum and not motor cycle ? ...dont donner me, only asking
  4. maybe send JB a pm, he will give you some good advice on the maintenance and performance of the wheels
  5. my pick would be the Easton XC one's or the Shimano's
  6. MattyG, they are a bit on the heavy side. It all depends what type of rider you are, but I will say go for XC racing, go for the lightest tyre (with sufficient grip). Take a look at the Schwalbe Racing Ralph(bit expensive) or Specialized Fast Trak LK or Bontrager Revolt Super X. All these i know are in the 500-600g range. Continentals are also quite popular but no experience there. However, the Crossmarks will probably outlast all of the above.
  7. from when(date) does the piper lead us out ?
  8. shes got issues!
  9. Ag no man, did you have to go and do this now?
  10. haha, brilliant topic tell us more
  11. that is why we call him IRON MAN...hehe
  12. oh, that groenies....thought the groenies in the babies nappy every morning
  13. no, sorry, my remark was confusing. i mean on the bike/trainer cycle but with not much effort at first.(i do stretch my itb though) second part will bit more intensity by adding some sprints/resistance
  14. go second hand.
  15. nobby nic. the others will last longer but not the good for muddy (crossmark or larsen/TT def not my choice for mud) even racing ralph is good all round choice but bit expensive ps. if you going for mud remember a mud guard front...nic sheds mud nicely
  16. to me warming-up has two parts : first to stretch and gradually allow the soft tissue to take the loads. second (when racing) get the cardio system going. races usually start fast in mtb'ing
  17. also ride this one and my ass is very happy
  18. they will kidnap your grandkinds and make sex slaves of them.... ill go for DoL rather
  19. be carefull, you'll have the DoL all over you for unfair dismissal
  20. will be good to have a mod or two roaming the hub
  21. aww, go and employ another securety guard for your front gate if you feel the need to be looked after
  22. Arniston for around 23rd dec
  23. pushing those pedals up the hill it will always be in the back of your head that you can be faster with the lighter bits
  24. mmm...i would go for an xray if i were you, maybe the left the tools inside and then sew you up....or a bed pan...or a baby pig or something. good luck and get well!
