Avoided? More speed = more fun. Until you fall of and you crack the pelvis and figure you then just have a few years left to live... The joys of older age.
This should be included.

I miss "It's a knockout" and "Jeux sans Frontierer"
Here's another ridiculously unfair comparison, designed to help sell so-called aero frames. These things annoy me, because they trick newbies into thinking they need a $5,000 frame to keep up with their fat friends on their Beach Rd coffee shop rides. 
As I wrote in the comments on the video, while the Ribble has got 'everything', the old Battaglin has a million spokes on the shallow front rim (probably round spokes), ancient, probably rock hard tyres, 3-foot wide bars that they rode with their elbows sticking out, and down-tube shifters!! How much drag and pedal-pushing oomph did it cost them each of the thousand times they reached down to change gears?!! Boo. I call shenanigans. That's right, big ishoos!!

I thought the idea in time trials in the 80’s was to put the bike in 53x12 just after you left the start line and leave it there…Here's another ridiculously unfair comparison, designed to help sell so-called aero frames.

Yes. The best name ever.
When I saw Roche using those I wanted the Killing System back in 87 but sadly there was no UK distributor that carried FIR disk wheels (they could only get the normal rims) and to get one from Italy or the US was almost £3000. This was back when you could buy a new Honda Civic for £8995 or a house for £29995.

Wind tunnel tested: Which aero road wheels are the fastest?
We found the fastest, but our findings only created more questions

Any of you gone the route of wider wheels and tubeless tyres?
Seems to be all the rage these days and I only know one lad that has some but he often buys new stuff because it's "new" and defends his purchase, saying it's the best thing since sliced bread, only to talk **** about it the second he buys something else.

I have no opinion on the wider rims, but hookless rims and tyres are a ****ing pain in the ****, as is sticking jism in your tyres. If you blow out a tyre with 70-80psi it’s like the worlds biggest *******. MTB tubeless makes sense to me, road no. They are ****s of things to pump up without a compressor or gas cartridge.
Important update.
Prey is very good and comes in at number 2.
The Predator is **** but entertaining and comes in just after the **** but entertaining Predator 2.
Oh my, does it get any better than beating Carlton by a point in the last round of the year to knock them out of finals, while at the same time securing the double chance?
Ahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
The only way it could be topped is if was a grand final, and the winning score was a kick after the siren after a controversial free.
Mums uncle Des was mad Carlton. He passed away a few years ago. Used to come around to nan's and hang **** on me and my cousin when that **** mob beat the Pies. I was nearly gonna drive out to the cemetery last night, stand at his grave and go "haha"

It gets better. As a Man Utd fan since 74, beating Liverpool a few days ago and unleashing verbal filth with a ferocity that my kids had never heard while I was shouting at the TV with the intent to be heard 5500 miles away, was the best post Covid stress relief yet.
**** them scousers.
**** them scousers.
