How Exciting, opening day is Saturday 25th August! Free t-shirts for the first 1500 customers and "on the spot" mac book and ipod prizes. I think i may just have to make my way there. No more do we have to go to Scotsys for our Apple products.

old times...



I found this slide whilst clearing out a few things today, it's me and my brother a while ago. Thats him on the right looking cool on his blue and yellow bmx (with matching hat and gloves) and i'm the fat one with, what looks like a brown leather jkt (??) on the kiddies bike.

Life was so simple back then.

(if i can get a clearer pic, i'll post it up)

Documented through camera phone

I was reading the paper in the coffee shop last night and saw this headline, makes me sad that this tends to be the sentiment of greedy local authorities. In an ideal world, it should read- "We've still got plenty of countryside, lets preserve and enjoy it."





Oh yeah, i finally got my Post Grad certificate through the door today- proof that i didn't waste last year.

seriously! how many bar-ends do you need?



There is a guy at work who cycles to work everyday on this monstrosity. He has basically bought every piece of bling kit he could afford and put it ALL onto this Orange P7 frame. (notice the Full XT groupset, Pace forks, Easton bars, Brooks swift saddle, Thomson finishing kit, Candy SL's...the list goes on)

It can be clearly seen that putting as many fancy bits of kit as you can afford onto your bike obviously doesn't mean it's going to be nice to look at, to ride...

Oh yeah, and remember don't bother cutting down the steerer tube- take up that excess space with loads over-priced Hope carbon spacers!!
