No, what you do is steal another brand's design. That's what you do, Sandy New. Don't you have any ideas of your own? Don't you see anything wrong with the theft of someone else's ideas? You're a poor representative of your country, thief. Did you talk to Specialized, Cervelo, Pinarello, and all the others whose ideas you've stolen before your copied their work and sold as genuine? I bet not as you likely don't have the spine (i.e., you don't have the courage) to face those from whom you steal, thief. Have you always been a thief, or is this something new to you?Sandy New said:
I'm not insulting your country. You're insulting your country by stealing from others. Listen, I understand that you have difficulty coming up with original ideas. I also understand that given how lazy you are, it's just easier to take someone else's ideas rather than having to spend all that energy thinking up your own or even thinking on your own. Your kind of like other business people, like the people who break into homes, steal belongings, and then sell them on the street. The difference is that you aren't breaking into someone's house. Instead of being a dirtbag, you're a lazy dirtbag. So, have you come up with an explanation yet why you can't come up with your ideas, why you have to steal ideas from others, thief?Sandy New said:
Let's see...I get junk mail by the ton, unsolicited emails by the dozen, cold calls from all kinds of outfits despite being on the 'No Call" list, cell phone spam txts and calls, sale people busting down my door all the time and somehow I'm supposed to get worked up over forum spam?
Ain't gonna happen.
Dumbshit is just too stoopid to not click, not respond, not read or stop ranting.
At least it adds to the entertainment value of the site!

Jim, I live in central Massachusetts. I am a high school PE teacher. Most of my riding experience for the past 15 years are from mountain biking, but for the last few years I have been putting more miles on the road bike. I ride about 40 - 50 miles per week and would do more if I had the time .
Hi cyclist, iam from Ireland. I took up cycling in April 2013. I did a two week cycle around Ireland for a charity called Cycle against Suicide. Ever since then I've being cycling most weekend. Most of the cycles are 50km to 130km.
Here, in the USA, good local bike shops size you as part of the process of selling bikes. They will also allow you to test ride bikes. Don't they do that where you live?Originally Posted by pickeringcm .
Hi,
I am a retired chappy looking to take up cycling. Hello. Just came on here really to get advice on bicycle sizing- am looking at getting a boardman brand bike and sizing info doesnt seem that straightforward- my post is being moderated i think..hopefully will pop out soon in the advice section...looking on other sites and bikes its just medium for me but the info was steering me towards small. Anyway thought i would come for your advice. Hoping to lose the belly and do a bit of travelling in achieving it. Hello and nice to meet you. Im a chubby northerner, soon to be a svelte northener i hope.
Hi there, I am from Greece, I am a radiologist and I got back to cycling a year ago with a trekking bike (after beeb there as a child , adolescent and student), and now I am trying to change to road bike, so in fact I am a beginner in road bike.... I bought a Cube WLS GTC PRO carbon a couple of weeks ago and after getting used to clipless pedals, I am trying to get used with shifting gears..So I am in the beginning but very enthusiastic..... I would like to get used to long rides..... I live in Crete, so lots of hilly roads, which makes things very interesting..... Now that cycling is back in my life, I want to keep it forever..!
Newbie recumbent rider in Rural Hall, NC. Systems Analyst / Programmer in need of more exercise. Am hoping the recumbent reinvigorates my interest in bike riding.
Initially I purchased a very nice Quetzal LWB under seat steering recumbent bike - but at age 64 it has proven to be a tougher challenge to ride safely than I had anticipated. It will be posted on Craigslist soon. Meanwhile I have purchased a Sun EZ-3 USX HD recumbent trike which should suit my needs well.

There's that, and then there's that third half which happens riding a bike without any known reputation or R&D really fast down a hill. Makes about as much sense as shooting a gun your neighbor's kid made in the shed. Might work, might not. Might even work 99% of the time until you really need it to work.
Hi there,
I'm from New Brunswick, Canada.
I used to ride just for fun as a kid.
But since then I've gotten into more... I guess you'd say, "serious" cycling. I hope to be purchasing a touring bike very soon, and planning a trip for next year across Canada.
I'm from the UK originally, but have only really gotten into tour cycling, or at least the idea of tour cycling these last few years and months.
Unfortunately, I'm on a limited-income and would like to purchase one for around the $600-800 range. Though I realise that this is not the top of the line stuff, it's all I can afford and is a good starter.
If I don't find a dedicated touring bike, then I'm fine with a hybrid.
At the moment, I'm in the process of adjusting my current bike - a Raleigh Triumph mountain bike, for touring. Fitting it with road/hybrid tyres, panniers/pannier racks, etc.
Here's a picture of my current ride:
Hoping to find some tips here on how to do the whole touring thing (since I'm relatively new to the idea).
Cheers,
Jack.

Hi all 37 year old new Dad here from Surrey I have a 21 month old daughter, recently caught the bug for cycling again. Thinking about upgrading the trusty Viking after a year for a Colnago Ace. I also do motocross as a hobby so the cycling really helps with that!! Been married for 2 years so juggling family life motocross and trying to put some miles in is interesting to say the least!! Cheers Geoff
New Here, From Central California. I'm a Home builder by trade, cyclist by choice, daddy of 4 young girls and a husband to one. 36 years young and really enjoy the time I get to spend on the bike!

Where are you from?
Homestead, Florida; trying to move to a close to Virginia Beach Community, Kingston, Washington as possible, and become a dual citizen of The USA & Denmark or best Western & Socialist Democratic European Country
What do you ride?
Raleigh “something or otherâ€- it has worn away 4000
How long have you been riding?
1991-1995 off and on (average 62.5-miles a week) & since 2003, riding average of 50-weeks a year with an average of 62.5-miles a week
Anything else we should know about you?
I do it for: 1st. Economics, 2nd. Better for The Earth & Animals, 3rd. Health & 4th. Experience so much more than when I used to drive, a heck of a lot more.
I drive my 1994 (I think, LOL) Ford Ranger so little that I have to move it to keep it breaking down and to get my bicycle fixed, drive my parents' automobiles when have to.
My longest rides, in one day is 60+-miles, Fruit Spice Park, Community of Redland to Coconut Grove Farmers' Market, with stop in at old location for The Miami Science Museum. I used to race on my bicycle to get to work, 6.5+-miles in less than average of 25-mins.; but with knees aching I no longer race, completing 6.5-miles in less than average of 45-mins.
My bicycle's back wheel has just thicker inter-tubes, while my front bicycle wheel has two-tires (the inter tire is a little smaller and the side walls are cut down, really the thread is important), I am going to buy the thickest possible inter-tube I can get into the front wheel- have a flat right now.
My revolutionary (BMX and invented double tiring wheels) bicycle mechanic 'Jeff' Frizgibson is about to lose his house and work location, thus I no longer have a bicycle mechanic and bicycle supplies. The reason for all of that puncture protection needs is because I ride on horrible, even for USA's Standards, roads and drivers, live right in the middle of The Community of Redland- been there then you know what I am talking about, and carry around 50+-pounds, on average, in my bicycle backpack. Been putting off getting a new bicycle and bicycle Helmet (could have had one built special for many, years ago, by 'Jeff', but never had the money) costs a lot of money and better for The Earth & its' Beings if I used it until it falls apart. I need a new Bicycle Seat, too much discomfort to wait and longer.
Diehard & Lifelong Miami Dolphins & Miami Hurricanes FootBall, Miami Heat & Miami Hurricanes BasketBall Fan, HATE MLB & Miami Marlins & The Capitalist Owners of Sports, Former AWESOME Pop Warner FootBall League DE & DL Coach (now defunct The Homestead Hurricanes), but BAD HS- FootBall Player (could never gain enough weight <refused to take PEMs> and my mind was not into it); HORRIBLE ESE Facilitator and BAD Ass. FootBall TE & for a short time OL (could never get back to DL- stereotypes <Vegan Thin- Super Healthy>) Coach (I did not have the Extroverted Personality it takes (if possible) to do The Facilitating The Right Way and Only Way I Wanted to Do It.
Used to be a- first tutor hired at a Sylvan Learning Center and became the most loved and respected tutor and then head tutor (Sylvan –at least at the center- tutors tutored in a ton of subjects, I was so liked because I would tutor anyone and every subject from K to College Students, no matter how many tutorees I already had at my table; third, just behind both the center’s Education and Business Directors) by the parents and most employees, the center folded shortly after I was gone,

Thank You, in advance, for all those that are going to welcome me. I do appreciate it
