Cheers Banjo, I would have missed this.
I'll have to record it though, obviously, as it clashes with The Walking Dead.

Someone by the name of [MENTION=27615]Felpham Seagull[/MENTION], came on to this thread specifically to give me a thumbs down on the first post. That is well over two and a half years old. Well done Felps, I'm sure you feel like a real man now.
God I hate that bloke.

Maybe he's venting his frustration at a poor showing in this year's fantasy league!

True, mind you we all did badly didn't we? I thought everyone abandoned it mid season. Maybe he is just really against fantasy anything. The giving of points based on sporting performance is a bit rubbish after all...
My thumbs page would suggest the boy felps is bicyclephobic.

I dunno SB, thumbs downing you seems to be popular past time on the football parts of this board

Now you'd think that, but much to my surprise I'm running at less than 10%.
Taking into account the level of half arsed bullshite I spout, I can only assume I'm on a lot of ignored lists.

This was only my second thumbs down ever, which is why I am so surprised. Considering that I mostly post about bicycles and NSK I think it is pretty good going that I've had so few. Not even wrong direction has given me one

Oh for feck sake, one of you clearly isn't trying hard enough.
Take it from me you can soon change that fact if you choose to call someones silly idea, silly.

So did everyone give up the fantasy stuff in the end then? I know my two did, despite the odd prod from me to get them back into it.
Is this why we don't see Cranky here anymore? He was a bit good at it that's for sure, so must be disappointed that everyone seemed to lose interest. I'd probably still have carried on if the organisers hadn't sold out and then been such condescending wankers towards anyone who dared question them.

Planet X do it again, full carbon bike (RT-57) with almost full SRAM Force 22 groupset (excluding brakes) for £999: http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/FBPXRT57FORCE22/planet-x-rt-57-sram-force-22-road-bike
The groupset alone would set you back almost £600. Probably as good as deal as the £799 one Notters got since the groupset costs £200 more.
This won't last long.

Just tried on my Morvelo bib shorts and I'm really disappointed. The fit feels perfect except for one thing, the leg gripper at the bottom is really loose, almost the complete opposite to any other bib short where if anything it feels tight compared to the rest of the thigh.
I thought perhaps it was a fault, and maybe a fatty had previous tried them on and broken the elastic, but of the 6 reviews on wiggle (http://www.wiggle.co.uk/morvelo-the-unity-bib-short/) 2 of them make reference to this.
I went for the large (as mentioned previously, I'm 5'11", about 12st6lbs and 33" waist), according to the size guide 32" waist is medium and 34" is large, so I guess technically I fall between sizes. Unfortunately Wiggle are out of the medium, but I really don't think I would be a medium and suspect they would feel too tight on my thighs.
For those of you who have them, have you noticed this with yours?

Coming down the A270, off Ditchling towards the pier.
If I wanted to detour up Bear Road, what should I be looking out for before the turning.
I've never really noticed Bear Road before, so I'm likely to blissfully ride straight past it.

Which you should really...
Left at the Vogue Gyratory just past the bus garage, if you miss it you could always wait until Southover Street or Albion Hill, sounds like you want to punish yourself.
