  1. Don’t knock genius my friend. Hopefully we will discuss ideas over a beer one day. Becks is quality, although it smells of weed. Has anyone else noticed that?
  2. He may be German.
  3. Best get some lycra jeans ordered Eggs.
  4. Bloody hell. You live and learn. Any tips on the fastest road bike? I’m, erm, asking for a friend.
  5. Nothing I haven’t done myself and got away with. Pegs on the timber didn’t help, nor did the groundie not letting it run a bit, but poor cutting was also a factor. As Jones says, you need to be ready to shift. I’m not being a smart arse, I’ve done worse and was very lucky to escape a few times.
  6. That’s a very sensible post Squaredy.
  7. Far too sensible Chris. Have you been drinking?
  8. Why would they be doing 35mph in a 30? Oh yes, rules don’t apply.
  9. I don’t do any road cycling, but plenty of my mates do. They get more infuriated by the arrogant antics of some of the bigger groups than anyone else because they all get tarred with the same brush.
  10. Equal rights for equal pay.
  11. Big groups are the problem. They seem to develop a ‘this is our road today’ mentality. If they are having some kind of ‘event’ they’re even worse.
  12. How does it work if Highways have condemned the tree and insists it is removed?
  13. That one looked like a bit of a puzzler!
  14. Went to look at this blown cherry yesterday. Snapped at about 4’, hung up, still a lot of crown well up in the air. Should be an interesting job, but we need to wait for the beekeeper to relocate the occupants first.
  15. I was in bits that we didn’t win the title against them under Keegan, but anyone who didn’t enjoy the football Man U gave us under Fergie isn’t a true football fan. Hard old bastard/genius. Wishing him a speedy recovery.
  16. Google ‘Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981’ mate. Loads on there, but I doubt reports are covered. Most of it pertains to destruction or disturbance.
  17. You lads get through some graft in a day. Loving the sunshine shots, cheers for putting them up.
  18. Aye, good work Eggs. It's not true what they say about you.
  19. I just assumed he was more pissed than usual.
  20. Tipper conversion to go with the new Greenmech he ordered when he was pissed. Don’t tell his Mrs., for Christ’s sake.

    Gloves

    They bring a whole new dimension to ‘letting it run’.

    Gloves

    These are pretty good. @Darrin Turnbull gets them from Germany, he should be able to help you out.
