  1. Got my first mountain bike race coming up this month and absolutely bricking it. Doing the Glentress Seven as a pair.
  2. If it was a Shimano chain your lucky you got 100 miles. Fecking shite.
  3. I'm more confident we could get through the play offs after last couple of games especially if Kiltie is playing well.
  4. Was that the same day a raging Ayr fan made it onto the pitch and got lifted in front of the cowshed?
  5. Being a Morton fan is shit, it's fucking dreadful 95% of the time. When that 2nd went in I nearly weeped from a different hole. All the money spent, the distance travelled make the 5% worth it.
  6. Seems supports are about quality rather than quantity. Get doon.
  7. Absolutely loads, we're experts on the subject. Too many occasions to mention.
  8. I like cooking too and am decent at it. So it leaves me fucking seething when she pays it zero respect by doing the same sorts of dicking around as mentioned by yourselves. And then proceeds to bitch and whine that she never gets time or peace to have a hot meal.
  9. Anyone done the 5 ferries challenge? Thinking about doing this over next couple of weeks. Just looking for some info on how long it took to cycle the Brodick to Lochranza leg as this seems the tightest for catching next ferry.
  10. Pretty common place, it actually wrote into our HR procedures but you have to prove it with a doctors line or such. Example: I needed an op just before Xmas and my recovery period was 3 weeks. With an enforced shutdown of the business over Xmas I was allocated all these holidays back.
  11. Coming back from London last Tuesday, someone sat in my reserved seat with all her crap spread onto my daughters reserved seat. After politely informing her I was able to take up said seats, brilliant scenes when around Preston it transpired she was on the wrong train and was meant to be heading to Manchester
  12. Fell out with me the other day for "interrupting" her. She was about to start talking but I said something first, telling her she was a fucking loony did not help but kept me amused.
  13. Minimum you should look at is hydraulic disc brakes and possibly air sprung forks with a tapered steerer (mainly because everything else is phasing out and impossible to replace). Would also go for 27.5" wheels (again 26" phasing out and hard to replace tyres now). If you stick with a decent frame from a brand Unleash The Nade has mentioned everything else can be easily upgraded as you go. Decathlon are better than they used to be, just apply same logic as above! Vodoo from halfords or the Bossnut from Go Outdoors are also decent budget options.
  14. This has been grating me as well (probably much more than it should to be honest) but so called experts spouting absolute nonsense having not seen us or aware of some of the stupid decisions Duffy made has been utter non sense.
  15. Shoes for flat pedals. Souls are properly grippy on the pedals.
  16. Set of flats and a pair of 510's and you're more or less glued to the pedal anyway!
  17. Suggest a Cyclo cross as well. Beefier tyres than a road bike, disk brakes and drop handle bars.
  18. You can buy them in the gift shops when you arrive.
