blue, but old with a ****ty mix of components and tri bars.

I do my reputation no favour with those admissions. Will upgrade when the money starts flowin and get something nice. So I can see if I can beat Berny is C grade crits

Maybe a Ciombola. Any reccommendations?

gees it looks kinky. Like something driving down commercial road or oxford st on Saturday night

Are you new here or something?

suppose thats the typical answer from the owner of a custom frame shop

sorry Thyc forgot all about you,
I clicked on the link today too, should be able to see my ip on your log.

That frame does look nice.

That'd be awesome thunder. Cheers!
We were at the museum the other week but had the rugrats with us so had to give it a miss. Any chance to get out together is a real treat for us.

Have now, probly too late but maybe next time
Been out riding all afternoon... luverly day for it. Had a dental appointment in Eltham, I'm in Belgrave South... stuff the car, time to ride.

Interesting ebay item
not that I would buy it. I dont even know why 1) why they made it and 2)why you would buy it

MR Kotter, simple, you buy it on ebay if you want a new dura ace gruppo, they go for what $1,800, Ksyriums another grand. You buy it and chop shop it for parts.

Then you try and create a stress fracture in the BMW frame from some generic chinese carbon fibre out sourcer (which will have weaknesses and wall sizes 1/3 of some cf Treks or Cannondales), and you go back to a BMW showroom on the Saturday morning and cause a huge fuss in the showroom in their busiest time. You then try and get a refund on the frame , or if not you prevent some accountants or realestate salesman from purchasing at that BMW franchise by creating a huge scene.

Will whoever locked was_bmxer in the cupboard please tell us where we can find the key?

Him and 'Patty are swapping stories about retro freestylers and that time they bumped into Bob Haro.

Good idea, except now the bike is over $3k. So it looks like someone actually wants the bike

Told you stuff weren't necessarily cheap on ebay

Yeah I guess it pays to see what an item is worth new before bidding

Still hoofing around. Mrs went to a detox health retreat last Sunday for 7 nights, I have had both babies (2 year old & 3 month) at nights and mornings & work to go to each day. Get home feed em and go to sleep.

A few guilt free extended Sat morning rides in my future, hmm yes.

whole host of interesting sports on today at the CGs:

womens 10m platform, www.cronica.com.mx/.../ details.php?image_id=169

tatiana grigorieva https://www.mattcleary.com/issue25_2000/page11.html ... err.. I mean the womens pole vault,

and some bike race. Overgrown BMX or something like that

Ahh, bmxer old chap. Glad to see you're still around. Was starting to worry that you might've been taken by the natives.

Anyway might be time for me to start doing some road miles again. You planning on doing that coluzzi run anytime in the near future?

Taken by the natives.... well I do live next to Maroubra, so if I turn up one day with the post code tattooed on my chest drinking beer and watching the surf till it gets small enough to go out, you'll know I'm in too deep.

Yeah, waterfall run, I go every Saturday. Will miss this one as I can't get a babysiter over at 5am, penalty rates and everything you know.

There is always a lady each Sat with a CCCC jersey, she is pretty strong, forgot her name??? rower as well. You might know her? It has been better (smaller) the last few weeks.

The sat morning group, I meant. In case you were wondering?

Rower? Hmmm... dunno. Cass Kell was goalie on the Aussie soccer team, now becoming a decent track rider. Only others I could think of would be Margaret Beardslee, Jenny Sparks, or Sandra Nottley but they're nowhere near as strong as Cass.

Yeah, I am pretty hopeless with names. esp street names.

"guy with the blue helmet and sidi's" or "the road that goes left, off cambered with the 2 pot holes" etc, thats how my brain seems to work.

Some of these other threads, What should I buy threads? WTF. I started a colnago one a few weeks ago, I guess the question wasn't stupid enough, only got about 10 replies.

Theres some chick on Ch9 saying her old coach told her she'd have to take performance enhancing drugs if she was going to compete at the top level. Greeeaaaat.

Just what Australian sport needs, another drug scandal/slander grudgematch.

10:00 - If your near a telly right now, the MTB is about to start!

*edit* Ah buggah, it was only 2min of talk.

why deny the truth? just cause there not getting caught doesnt mean there clean.... maybee the aus male swim team needs to get on the gear the girls are using

Well it would give A current affair something to show other than the runner who won gold last night, they could dig up some old Mark french/Athens olympic trail footage and tie it in with the "road cycling, are they a menace" story they air about once every 18 months, about due again anyway.

What sport? Who are Ch9 kidding? Commonwealth Games aren't top level.
