    Something in common with the cycling powers that be then!

    You are a tough dad, I don`t think I would have made it through varsity without THC and a couple of other little recreational supplements!

    Are you surprised? the Chineese are apparently experts at making babies!

    Nice, clean lines, simple suspension design , space for a bottle cage, .......wonder how it pedals.

    Just wondering if the bike smacked him after that great recovery? watch the end of the clip and you can see it`s still coming down......

    Enjoying Mr Robot Ballers is ok , so is Humans True detective is filled with great actors but plot is too complex for the timeframe, I keep on feeling there is a great series in there somewhere and there were some good episodes but it needs tightening up, still compelled to watch through to the end though. Series 1 was a hard act to follow even though the ending was a rushed rubbish. Ray Donovan is good. Tyrant is good, series 1 and 2. We also enjoyed Transparent, House of cards, Shameless and Girls, The Borgias was fantastic. Last man on Earth also ok. My wife enjoyed Last Tango in Halifax.

    Buy the 3 bike Thule. 2 bike is a bit tight for full sus trailbikes. Bigger is better. Also useful for other luggage. I have used it for Suitcases and it works a treat.

    somwhere between 1,8 - 1.86 kg vs 1,96 kg for the fox evolution. It is bloody expensive though but you get what you pay for. I still reckon it`s worth the upgrade as my experience with the maestro suspension has always been that the fork always ends up as the weakest link.
  13. DirtyFrank
    Change the fork to a Pike and upgrade the tyres and wheelset to something lighter, wider and faster(engagement) and you will have a great bike.

    Having seen those fork mounted bottle cages, I will never feel bad again about my bar ends!

    I reckon it got hooked on the towbar

    Apologies if this has been mentioned before but real butter or cream can improve virtually any dish.

    Lots of songs recognized as originals are covers House of the rising sun - many versions before the Animals made it their own. Always on my mind - Elvis Presley ( Willie Nelson also covered it well) Love Jimmy Hendrix`s version of `all along the watchtower` more than Bob`s Don`t cry for me Argentina , Covered by Sinead o`Connor ( she did many fantastic covers on the album `Am I not your girl?) Blue eyes cryin in the rain - Willie Nelson

    Pah!.....done that, next time i will just try to open my eyes and hold on to the bike for the OTH to be a summersault rather than a not so elegant faceplant!

    House of cards Ray Donovan waiting for the next season of: True detective ( ending of series 1 was dissappointing though ) Shameless Game of Thrones The Borgias. What a great series not popular here i think ( if this will ever return? ) last 2 seasons of True Blood were crap (finished now)

    I can already see the replies......`But it`s because we women have a higher IQ....blah blah`

    I always find the whole pain / childbirth analogy quiet puzzling as most of the females i know cry at the slightest little stubbed toe or paper cut yet I have been around blokes with bullet holes and bones sticking through skin who have just grimaced and taken the pain. Same goes with pushing through and suffering up the hiils rather than slowing down before they have broken through that 'barrier'. My wife dissagrees.

    Would love to try it, with a proper fullface helmet of couse, must give your core muscles a good workout too!
