Cycling: issues/noticeboard

[Ladymuck]

meh...

I knew it was there...was hoping Master Quids might pop by...

Re. the bikes - aren't you worried the trespassers might return?

Have you seen these? This one holds up to 3 bikes.

TROUSERS too long? Simply develop bow legs from Rickets. Adjust your vitamin D deficiency to the length required

[Ladymuck]

*gawd*

:))

[karter]

Thanks for that LM, i'm hoping that they will return, there is a surprise awaiting them.(6)

[Ladymuck]

One of Daizie's "Top Tips"?

[karter]

Yes, Daizie's hedgetrimmer.

Pet hate: cars roaring past a group of cyclists to turn left immediately ahead of them causing everyone to brake suddenly. Oh god that really gets me going.

[Ladymuck]

This happened to me a few years ago as I was cycling (straight ahead) on Lordship Lane. Lady in MPV on school run did just that without indicating left. I sustained a fractured hip. I think that buses and lorries are getting better in this respect though.

[karter]

Don't let that make you complacent though watch it on the roads.

This, and also overtaking to then break sharply

in front for speed bump :(

CPR and Bellend road specially bad for this.

[felt-tip]

oh god especially going south down CPR when you have a nice rhythm to get up the gentle incline.

[Ladymuck]

My God you lot must be fit! There's nothing gentle about the incline on CPR LOL!!! How are you on Sydenham Hill? Despite having climbed it hundreds of times, I still feel as though I am going to have a heart attack when going that way! Fun coming down though!

[felt-tip]

the hardest hill is climbing up to Biggin Hill from Westerham. it has reduced me to tears.

[Ladymuck]

Blimey.

*tries not to laugh*

['bout now]

Nah felt tip, try Toys Hill, makes your eyes bleed.

Come on, Toys Hill's for kids!

Try Mt Ventoux, for proper grown ups ;-)

['bout now]

I'll take that and raise you The Tourmalet

I honestly wanted to have a little cry.

[Applespider]

Ladymuck - I'm with you. Sydenham Hill is quite enough...

[felt-tip]

The record for going up and down Mt Ventoux in 12 hours is something like 7 times.

[Ladymuck]

felt-tip you are a freak!:))

[Ladymuck]

As are 'bout now and Pearson it seems!:))

I mean, bleeding eyes and tears? Oh dearie, dearie me.

*wipes eyes from excessive laughter*

BTW, have any of you been on McCabe's rides. Apparently they are really fun (and free).

[Pearson]

Ladymuck,

What is this thing you speak of called 'fun'?

[Ladymuck]

Well it doesn't involve bleeding eyes that's for sure!

...wait...
