I purchased 'Trainspotting' with English translation footnotes at the bottom of each page.

Hell yeah. I'm a great believer in looking after the fallen, especially newbs out of their depth on a group ride. I'll go back and help when all the other juggernauts plow on in ignorance.

Someone who can't keep pace in peak hour on a three lane highway is asking for trouble. I remember just what it was like when I dragged the bike down off the wall again. It was hell on every ride for weeks, and I was even riding on the friggin footpath on where I knew I was going to hold up traffic badly!!!!

But I didn't wan't to get tangled up in his woes either, so I just left him to live and learn. He didn't seem keen to try to keep pace (read suffer) anyway. End of partnership.

Unlikely, my 1992 Laser TX3 4WD Turbo has a 60L tank. You don't reckon Ford would put the same size tank as a 4-cyl rice rocket in a honking great Fairmont - the howls of outrage from the heartland would have been deafening. :p

Then again, I could be wrong, but I did think the bigger cars had bigger fuel tanks.

He called me a liar the other day. I took great satisfaction in dispelling that myth. I am a man of honour. Tardy maybe, but still a man of honour.

Best night out I ever had was in that nightclub from Trainspotting, it was built on a traffic island :eek: in Glasgow (not Edingburgh as depicted)...and has since been demolished :rolleyes:

Rockin out to Secret Samardi on 11 with monitors at very close range. Kick drum is pounding my chest as if I was sitting inside a W bin at an Angels concert at the Newcastle Workers. One of my mates fell asleep inside one of those one night!!! God knows how. How he can still hear, that is.

oh yeah.........65L then? :)

I just got back from the Tuesday night drags on Beach Rd.
Nobody showed up (must've been the balmy weather), and I got mt first puncture in about 9 months!!

In english?

No luck:p

Aussie can translate for ya if your stil stuck

When I left werk today it was 22.5deg!!! I had nowhere to stash all my winter gear except arm warmers so I had to wear my leg warmers and booties. Sweating buckets all the way to the train. Gosford was (predictably) cold just 30 mins later.

I was in our fair state capital last week. Went down to St Kilda for a window shop down Ackland st and a feed with the missus and little bloke. You reckon the wind off the bay wasn't friggin' cold? Mawson would have complained. Are you training for next years Belgian spring classics Aussie?

BTW, how good are the cakes in that Monarch bakery in Ackland St. Senfarkinsational!

Close, 68L :)

i think my commodore only has somthing like a 60 litre tank, seems like its getting filled every 2 days or so.... :(

get a Bathurst tank!

If you don't know what that is check out any A9X or SLR5000 that's still on the road.

120L from memory.

Check out the ultra-weird Yamaguchi frame on http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=210035

So weird it's cool, but bags not riding it for any great length of time.

He meant his mate fell asl..
HE MEANT HIS MATE FELL ASLEEP INSIDE A BASS SPEAKER CABINET AT A ROCK CONCERT ONCE

Regular group ride....The 'Beach Rd' area has 100's of 'em...testosterone filled, nitro burnin', law breakin', posuer heaven.....awesome if ya got the legs to hold on!

THE
HAPPIEST
CONVICT
IN
THE
WORLD.

So is an iPod shuffle a decent gift for a 12 year old?
After getting a quote for $2500 for the essentials this morning, I chucked a saddie and slunk home to my deathcouch, but managed to drag myself out this evening for a coupla hours of laps at Centennial. Remember the phone vibrating at one point and then forgot about it.
Best voicemail I've ever heard.

The world IS an amazing place.
