Cool, time to buy a stripper coat then start doin' the windmill, you won't see him for a while coz he'll be batting himself into oblivion.
The cops picked him up because he has a warrant for Kidnapping in Isreal??

The cops have been here daily. I like that we have good protection here. Gives me piece of mind. Nice guys too...

So once the anti suicide nets go up on the Golden Gate Bridge, how many folks do you think will dive off into them for the rush just becase they can?
Is there a way to get yourself out? Or do you have to wait for someone to come and get you? I try to be self sufficient when I do crazy crap.....

Current fun seems to be both knees somewhat facked (they work, but hurt) after a few crashes at NEMBAfest. I go back to work, initially three days a week, starting July 7th - ugh.
Just busting your onions old dude.... I am certain of your ability to have fun. I am disappointed you couldn't seem to make the job thing go away. I am sure you will work it out.

If I had continued north on on Essex County route 7 to Elizabethtown, the 75 miles might have been 100; alternatively, I could have collapsed from exhaustion.
Riding flat pedals on the roadie is just insane! Buy some clips and maximize your efficiency and save your knees... Do it now!

Pfft, it is awesome, all my road Kms are done in DH shorts and 5.10s because anything else would be silly.

If you try to fit in with the roadies it's only a matter of minutes before one sneaks up behind and tries to sniff what you ate for breakfast. Not even Rolf Harris is as creepy as finding a roadie attached to your cornie, sicko fart sniffers!

Haha, I just hate a good chunk of bike riders, roadies getting up early in the morning to ride through suburbia yelling from the front the front of the pack to the rear aboot which coffee shop they are riding to.

XCers doing pretty much the same but parking near houses talking about their week in IT at 6 in the morning before their ride through the bush to the best little coffee house.

Then the DHers roll out of bed, take off their pajamas, swap in to a set of riding jamas hit the local tracks after driving around the gate that says do not enter and proceed to do some mad skidz and leave Monster cans everywhere so the world knows how extreme they are.

If you ride early, shut the **** up around houses, if you ride somewhere illegally, sneak in and keep the place tidy. If you ride on the road and have a convo with your mate while using hand gestures and swerve all over the place you will probably get hit and the bike world will blame the driver, because were are perfect humans that are never in the wrong.

One thing that drives me nuts is when I'm out riding solo in the woods, enjoying the general quiet and sounds of the forrest only to be interrupted by some loud mouth dirt roadie blathering endlessly to his buddies at a volume that could be heard from inside a meat locker. Jeeezus, shut the fvck up !
Folks who ride alone with earphones that sing as they ride. Or Kids who have not been taught manners and speak in Public at a loud measure.

I was given mod powers on another site and was asked to delete a member but I coudn't work out how so I just changed their posts to I am the scum of the earth, if I had a vag on my elbow I wouldn't leave the house etc.

Tonight I have drank too much, tomorrow I will drink much more.

Accepted a job at shimano. Quit my current job. Moving to so Orange County and the housing market is depressing. So expensive. So many apartments. Thinking of leasing a awesome loft in San Pedro / long beach and making a **** commute or deal with orange county
