Belated birthday greetings, bloke.

Loving the fact that amongst all the obvious history of Berlin you find find a proper hidden gem, what a great shop :thumup:

Absolutely love it, big thumbs up from me

Excellent, should be a brilliant journey getting your dad's bike back together, so many memories.

Watching with interest.

I'd go for the 9.8 as it's got better suspension and no faffing charging the gearchange battery. I've got a 9.0 and love it. Either one will be fun, ebikes are great, they let the less than fit ride further for longer plus uphills become as much fun as downhills. Get one or both because, let's face ...

Looks like I am now.

My Dad was an engineer at the Mars factory for a couple of years. He brought home bin bags of Maltesers. My brother and I ate so many that we were ill and took a day off school. I haven't eaten them since, nor a Mars bar or Marathon (Snickers). To this day I don't eat much chocolate and don't crave...

Dave told me recently that BMW are bringing out a new model which will make the current bikes worth naff all. He wants to do another year, but will be on a lesser bike than some and at end of next year, his bike will be practically worthless. Thats pretty much what happened when it stopped being a ...

The lads nuts, just nuts

The racing has little to do with the event in terms of watching. Me and @crust have been to the Belgian Spring Classics and it's far more about the atmosphere, the occasion, talking shit with other fans. We didn't care about seeing the action live, you see like 3s, but drinking, eating, laughing 10...

Top winning,mate. A wife and a championship, excellent

In with the big boys next year then,

I was always a bit 'meh' about tyres and pressures, running mainly nobby nics simply because I didn't know any different. Then I did a wet day in FOD on the eeb Rail with stock bontys and had loads of really sketchy moments, after a particularly sketchy trail and there some discussion with Weeksy an...

To say Tricky was beaming with happiness is a huge understatement, they're a lovely couple.

Had a great evening catching up with people in a superb setting.

Great evening

Meh, he's alright on an XC bike, check him out on a road bike.

That cornering speed, no run off or wimps recticell fence to catch you, just lycra and big drops :0

Anytime you're moving air through a restriction you'll get some noise. Post a picture of your current vent, I may be able to recommend a better one.

I was kind of 'meh' on mtb tryes until recently, had a nightmare day at FOD which was according to the experts (Weeksy) down to crap tyres, he advised Continental Argotal, front Kryptotal rear. How much!?!?!! A deal was found, tyres fitted, wow, revelation, grip everywhere, seem to be lasting well, ...

£25

Better than nothing, look on the bright side etc.

Thoroughly enjoyed it over a morning coffee.

Thanks for posting KFB

No fool like an old fool,eh? Go Crust. 8-) Oi, I resemble that remark :crazy: Day didn't start well when I couldn't swing my leg over the bike, not enough movement in the new hip (more stretching required or lower the bike), had to lean it on the house wall to get on. (didn't get much better as day...
