Naas V Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 So I pushed my bike down some ridiculous single track. Guy on bike, who can't climb by the way, came pass me calling me a sissy. Next one laughed at me, third one looked at me like I was something pityful. Fortunately, the wheel of life created some more hilly sections ... My question is and I'm posting this to the real MTB'rs, don't know if there are any on the hub(...MTB'rs are suppose to be kind , considerate, cleancut, upstanding individuals)... ...if I'm a SISSY, what do you call those mostly overweight, seemingly brainless and responsibility-free gentlemen that came past me or behave like that on any other given day? See, I'm building a MTB trail and I wanna put up some signage for the people. Now I've got this one ready: Thank you - all ideas welcome Naas
River Rat Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 Ag shame! On this website if you can't swallow razor blades, drink diesel and p*ss fire you're a sissy get used to it or buy the blades and the diesel.
The expat cyclist Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 Dear Naas, What is your definition of a real MTB'er?
Naas V Posted May 28, 2010 Author Posted May 28, 2010 Guys, I'm being serious but want to add some fun to the trail. So it's gonna be a fairly modest trail but with sections where the riders will have the option of going the safer route or be a little bit more adventurous and signs will tell The Brave.....to go a certain way and SISSY's to take the safer option. Looks like I hurt some ego's ??? Sorry,.. ... and please help out with names. Thks, Naas Naas V2010-05-28 06:40:29
Eldron Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 I see the MTN National Series has gone all PC on us - it's no longer chicken run but "alternative route". A chicken run is a chicken run - by calling it an alternate route you don't exactly inspire people to try the real deal do you? Call is pansy pass, chicken run, moffie move, sissy surrender - anything that creates a bit of motivation to try the technical side!
Taps Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 Chicken run = Twinkletoes RouteBull run = Yeeeehaaa (or Eina) RouteTaps2010-05-28 05:57:00
Nancy Drew Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 Ha! at Sani2c they have 'Mild' or 'peri-peri' signs... no need to mention who one of the major sponsors is.
TomvdP Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 I kinda like the sign - the only thing I would change would be to just have the first S being the girl. It is a bit hard to read otherwise - especially at a glance.
Nancy Drew Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 You do know that it's a matter of time before some female hubber points out that not all girls are sissys? In fact, I know some girls who will ride the scary stuff better and/or faster that some guys (myself excluded ). Just a thought...
scotty Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 Better get riders doing your MTB trail to sign indemnity forms, when they see that sign the'll be too embarassed to use the sissy route and by using the hard core one could end up in hospital.
Dirty Twin Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 Naas is a Nancy Girl. ? Hey! ? I'm no sissy... ? ? Spud IS.......
