Simon Davey Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 @Hoggs So, I'm hoping that, at some point this year it will stop raining, and I'll get out. Which brings me to a simple question.... How long do we get, is it the whole year? Because of work/weather, my rides out are limited to an hour every couple of weeks, more in the summer.

You spent 24hrs working so you can go somewhere on your bike on Thursday?” ”Yes.” ”Over 300 miles in the cold and damp just so you can take a picture of your bike next to a building?” ”Yes.” ”Why?” ”Because it’s got a chuffing big number associated with it, that’s why.” ”Do you think we should call the doctor? Are you havi…” ”…Shut up. You don’t understand.

Beat that, peoples. In decades to come people will look back at this submission and marvel. Sixty Million Dave, they’ll call me. Then they’ll ask if I seriously had nothing better to do on a Saturday in January. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
