Politically incorrect?? Wait till you've seen Rico Gear lead them in the "banned" haka, Kapa O Pango....scare the spots off a Dalmatian.

If seppo is questionable I'm pretty sure All Blacks would be
banned. . . so yah politically incorrect.

Ah but see, they're not all black. Some of them are white bred cracker spawn.

And thus illustrates our (collective) expert use of irony. And black electrical tape.

you see, this just proves you don't understand the seppo mentality.
It doesn't matter what the team makeup is, nor the fact that it's a kiwi team
it will still be seen as potentially offensive to some one somewhere, facts don't matter
as long as the actions looks good to the collective masses. . .
black electrical tape is ok, but can get gummy when you use it to stick down
renegade bar tape.

since we are on the subject of bikes (remotely) if you recall I purchased
one of Eddie Salas' old track bikes (pogliaghi). I don't know if I posted
pics of it here, but I'm happy to flog it to anyone who cares to look.
I traded some email with Eddie and he says it looks just like it did when
he first got it.

you can see it here (before and after pics)

pages 4 and 5 are after the repaint etc.
I'd post pics here but don't have correctly sized ones.

so i guess youd probably just as spun out as my So Cal ex GF who just wouldnt believe that i lived in a place called " Blacktown "

Bike looks good Marty.

That is one farken noice trackster. Makes me wish I was a midget so I could steal it.

Dare we ask how much the refurb was, Marty?

Gunther Van Hagens is his name....he's had quite a life. Son of a Nazi SS officer and pioneered "plastination"....has been accused of stealing cadavers and breaking 200 year old public dissection laws....

Wikipedia him or plastination...

Not for the squeamish.

What a creep.

Germany - between all the cannibal killers, the SS and this bloke - what a gothic freak show.

What would they say about a suburb like, oh.....Box Hill?:D

i think once she learned our little aussie way of speaking she was much more impressed with " rooty hill " !

I liked the original paint job although it probably needed redoing.
Points off for not lining the crank arm up with the downtube :p

Looks sweet

The votes are in: Evans 3, Menchov 2, Landis 1, Hincapie 1

If you assume that nothings going to change after tonight until the TT you would think that Evans and Menchov are really going to have to bust a gut. Landis already has a minute on them and will take the best part of another minute of them in the TT. So they need to win tonight by at least 2:30-3:00 over Landis to be any chance of the overall GC at the end. It'll take something special to shake off Landis, especially to that extent.

Hincapie is gooorne, and Dessel will crumble as will Pereiro. Other contenders that might spring a surprise win include Simoni, Sastre, Kloden, Rogers, Moreau, Popovych and maybe even Leipheimer [cough] or Karpets. Sadly Rassmussen has put on 3 or 4 grams since last year and isn't the climbing powerhouse he could have been if he'd just left that red M&M alone. What a porker.

I'm still gunning for Menchov, although I'm starting to think Moreau might be in with a chance if he's tough enough mentally.

Oh, youse can mourn the loss of two more Aussies from their home soil. My girls arrived in California yesterday. We hope to have them safely delivered in a few days, after their grandparents take them to Las Vegas.

And we got another dog. He's only a Pomeranian, but he's named after a famous Aussie. Chopper.

ahahaha have fun explaining that name to the neighbours.

hey jock put me down for a menchov win. I dont think Cadel has it to win (although i want him to win). I dont want another yank to win especially if he is some crazy religo person. Rabobank lok strong too. But T-mobile could come back. I wonder is Kessler is gonna continue, hes won my hard man of the peloton award, I only saw the accident last night, damn it looked bad.

Also a question for ya. Would you buy a set of wheels of Maurice? I was able to decipher that he has a set of 2nd hand American Classics 420s for $450. (see a few pages back)

......

That's not my vote for George is it? Coz I was only joking (see below)

Big George Hincapie (aka Lance's faithful lieutenant/Lance's close friend and workhorse/etc etc) to come from behind and clean up on L'Alpe tomorrow.......not:D

I think it will be some climbing pecker who is too far down on GC to matter but wants to make sure of his contract for next year. Top GC contenders will all finish just a minute or so behind the winner & all close together.

BTW Expat - a pomeranian does not classify as a dog. :p

That's not my vote for George is it? Coz I was only joking (see below)

:lol: I read the NOT in the original post, but selecting the field against George is a tad unfair. So I notted your not, not that it matters, and you got wot you got. I also put down existence's vote as being for Cadel, but only coz my mind was so messed up after reading his post. :D

Aha...that's okay then, clear as mud :) So go George it is for me I suppose.... May LA be ridin' with ya big fella.:lol:

Would you buy a set of wheels of Maurice? I was able to decipher that he has a set of 2nd hand American Classics 420s for $450. (see a few pages back)

I would buy a set of wheels of Maurice. I think Expat already mentioned it would help if you could check the bearings and cups, but it's pretty difficult to do that when they've been packed. Unless Maurice is willing to let you pull them apart in his workshop. :roflmao:

"Excuse Mr French Person, can I irritate you by revealing my arrogance and showing a complete lack of trust in your merchandise? Would you like a little contempt with that?"

does the dog have ears? or is that a project for later on? ........

a project for.........Dr. von Hagens! Mwuhuhuhuha!

:D

I think tonight will be like Wil says. Some stick insect will win, followed by the "elite bunch" a few minutes back.....but hey, anything could happen, which is why I'll keep harping on - this is the best tour in seven years.

Feck off Lance. Go train for the Hour or the Giro or one of the other 500 races you've never won.

And the award for the most unbelievable thread title of the day goes to......... :lol:

is a trike a recumbant? or like a bikie trike?

no pics? I'm sure this bike is awesome !!
and the best line on there so far is...

"Those women are all over me. "What big husky legs you have. Can I touch them?", "That's a nice bike, will you take me for a ride?", "That reclining position sure looks comfortable."

I could go on and on..."

Rumor has it that this is his steed of power....

I think it is a recumbent trike HDT.

Maybe if it was one of these then I would accept there is some coolness about it.

is a trike a recumbant? or like a bikie trike?

Like a bikie trike. They actually race them in the uk. Like a racing bike, but with three wheels - no BS!

They also race hill climb TT events and have 24 hour time trials and time trial up the friggin M1 - silly Poms.

http://www.tricycleassociation.org.uk/

Check the pics of them hanging over the trikes to keep them upright. Poms are funny.

I'm using every power that I have at my disposal to resist replying "It's not the trike, it's the fact that you have two heads...."

The most fun times I've ever had in my life were when I gave into temptation.

Racing tricycles. Only in England I would suspect. :)

Yeah !!!!

god those pics remind me of a show called 'little britain'..."...I am the ONLY gay in the village.." hehehe

Trike racing could be the sport for me. Some of those guts are bigger than mine.

Marty, the All Blacks were so named way back in the early 1900s when probably 95% of the team were pakeha (caucasian.) At that stage black wasn't really a descriptive term used for dark skinned people - a term now beeped out of Kanye West songs would have been used instead. The name was purely to do with the uniform colour.

Anyway enough of the PC history lesson. Here's a better one than Rooty Hill, Box Hill and Blacktown - North Island kiwis ski at Whakapapa. In Te Reo Maori, "wh" is a "f" sound, and "a" is pronouned as a short a as in car.

Magnificent climbo. :roflmao: I'm tipping you won't see those boys at the front of the pack in the hills...

:roflmao:.........omg.....I'm crying.......:roflmao:

Don Walker made a 'racing trike' a few months ago. He was very proud of the construction and rightly so, but he was also brave because they are by far the gayest bikes I have ever seen. Now, if they were big arse kids trikes with the cranks attached to the front wheel, that'd be heaps funny, but fat guys in pink lycra on a nanna bike? I don't think so.

The weight must help for cornering on the trikes :D The pink gear to match the frame is truly tragic though, and can you believe they're wearing oversocks!

Holy ****, check out the clincher trying (badly) to maintain composure under the load!! Man, I've seen deforms like that on car tyres, but never on a properly inflated bike tyre! Wonder if he made it to the finish.

In bad gay middle class twit pommy accent....

'Why don't you wike wacing twikes Cwimbo and Fywawcine?'

"Becwause I'm not a LAYdeeeee"

I thought most people amended the pronunciation so it sounds more like the aeroplane manufacturer.
