hopefully no used condoms or syringes in there. :)

jock 05-09-06 08:38 PM

So let me get this straight.

You nicked some sand from Newcastle Beach to take with you to Utah. Hmmmm...

I can only imagine that it has been suitable enriched with the sweat of a bikini clad Vodafone Beach Volleyball girl :D

Thylacine 05-09-06 08:58 PM

Hang on.....appart from the mountains and the local Mor(m)on cemetary, isn't Utah just one big beach minus the fun bits?

An anyway, it's not a farken bison, moit, it's a farken SINK!

Doubtful. It's from Horseshoe beach. If it's enriched with anything, I don't want to know about it. :eek:

Hmmm. We have the empty lake, and one with water. Lots of snow too. I am slowly learning that Utah is full of Mormon prudes like Australia is full of convicts...

That's a bit hard to enforce... I've seen people at the beach that could easily smuggle a couple of kilos of sand in their arse cracks.

Thylacine 05-09-06 09:04 PM

Would you like us to send you some stolen beer and pron Brian? :D

The mental imagery was just too much! :eek:
I need to go lie down for a while.

Depends if you're talking about hydrogen embrittlement or some form of embrittlemant caused by shot peening.

If you have any specific questions, drop me an e-mail and I'll be happy to fill you in.

You can buy beer in the grocery store here. I think you need to go to Wyoming or Nevada for the other.

Plenty of varitey, don't you worry. I've my bottle of Bundy OP.

Wilchemy 05-09-06 09:44 PM

Have you got your genuine Bundaberg Ginger beer too so you can mix up a "Dark & Stormy"?

jock 05-09-06 09:44 PM

Red or Orange cap?

HDTVKSS 05-09-06 09:45 PM

Expat, they had the southpark - Mormon episode on last night. made me wonder about how (in)sane ppl are down that part of the world. quite fruity.

Orange. No South Park - I'm too busy pissing away time with you guys.

jock 05-09-06 09:54 PM

Shame. Red cap is the 'true' Bundy OP. Just a capful can run a Hummer for about a week.

Wilchemy 05-09-06 09:57 PM

Hey Exxy, are you anywhere near the salt lake where they do the car racing?

Brian 05-09-06 10:01 PM

The Salt Flats? Nope, but we've had some fries from Maccas.

Wilchemy 05-09-06 10:06 PM

Oh. That's one place in Utah I remember. And SLC, but the salt flats were cooler to me.... unfortunatlely missed seeing a motorbike rocket effort by one day. The cars are probably hotter than any fries from Maccas!

Brian 05-09-06 10:14 PM

There was a joke about a lot of salt in there somewhere...

Thylacine 05-09-06 10:19 PM

You went to Sunshine Ladies College?

Will be travelling to Sydney in October to see some relatives, was tempted to bring the bike and do some racing while there... does anyone know what category I would be in as a US 32 y/o Category 3 road racer? Tried to find it on the NSW cycling website but could figure it out... any ideas?

Larrikin. Did I spell that right?

531Aussie 05-09-06 10:42 PM

ok Thylo, I'll be impressed if you can answer this guy's questions :p

http://www.cyclingforums.com/t338900.html

he wants to design and make his own frame, but knows nothing!

climbo 05-09-06 10:42 PM

jock?

Jason. At Club level you'd be in A or B grade. Our grades vary here so if you do a State Open race, you may be graded in C or D as the competition is much stronger.

I raced Cat 3 in the US and race A grade at our club races when I'm in shape.

Brian 05-09-06 10:48 PM

Climbo forgets to mention that he's a sick bastid that can kill us all on a SS MTB. Or maybe I'm just a fat bastid with poor nutrition and lack of exercise. :D

G'nite you bunch of bogans.
