    What kind of bike do you ride? What is your opinion of a single
    speed? Where is your favorite trail? How long is your average ride?
    How long have you been riding? Have you **ever** posted a ride
    report? Who got you into riding? Do you prefer lycra or baggies?


    Sheesh, this could really get out of hand.

    especially if I ask "Commando or not"


    Ouch!

    I personally though that AMB was *anything* to with mountian bikes,

    So as long as topics *are* about mountain bikes, then we should all
    play nice.

    I draw the line at repeated pathetic attempts to engage He Who Must Not
    Be
    Named into intelligent discourse.


    Mheh.

    OK, Ne><us, how come your quotes don't attribute themselves to you? I
    replied to YOUR post, but it just leaves the previous attribution (happens
    every time).

    "DecSim" did NOT write the above quote; Ne><us did.

    PITA, that.

    No, he was the one who gave me the free wheels. 😉

    I was never aware of this problem, but I will rectify it to see if anything
    happens.

    Can I poke fun at him? I restricted the intelligent discourse to email
    but as usual he pansied about not answering the questions properly and
    then resorted to insults in true troll style before ignoring me. So
    rather than attempt it on here I'll stick to poking fun if no one minds.


    That's what trolls are good at. I have been trolled enough times to know
    that, and i've witnessed a lot of others being trolled too, (which can be
    very entertaining.)

    With lycra, i thought that you wear it only, layering over if nessisary.

    Yes, that person is annoying, just like the mosquitoes and blackflies. He
    should take on things he can change, but, for all of us who live in the free
    world, isn't he alowed free speech just like each of us?

    To each his/her own.

    Now, go out and ride.

  8. Probably because he knew that if you phoned head office and complained,
    rightly or wrongly, they would order him to give you whatever you
    wanted including an enema if thats what you wanted 😉

    Apologies for the thread hijack but on the plus side slagging off
    Halfords is less inflammatory than the initial subject....

    I can't, my hardtail needs new brakes and my new Kona Coiler hasn't
    arrived yet. How dare you torment me with talk of going out riding, you
    heartless beast 🙂

    You do not need brakes to ride... ther are trees, arent there?

    Micheal...

  12. Trees sound painful. Put your foot in the tire to slow down. Just
    ignore the smoke...

  13. Stupid disc specific rims, they seem so nice when you have discs that
    work, then one day you need to put a v brake on for a while.....grrrrr.
    Despite the very useful suggestions of alternative braking methods I
    think I'll wait till I get a chance to sort it out 🙂

    Made me think of the time I leapfrogged over the front of my bike to
    avoid flying into a tree, cue comedy air running and then a brief
    period of running on the ground where my legs tried to go about 15mph
    then legs realised they were losing the battle and I flopped to the
    ground. Most comedy crash yet. Close second is the time I erased my
    buttocks using the road.....

    If you do offend me you can expect me to reply offesivly its a simple as
    that if you check any of my earlier posts you will see that when I have
    reached the decision that I have acted a bit to harshly towards somebody I
    will usually appologise and offer thanks for any help they have given me.

    OoooOOOoo, great way to get everyone to just carry on just doing as they
    damned well please. In fact, your post is absolutely *begging* for abuse,
