You have just waved the red flag for the bull. Now stand clear everyone, it's gonna get ugly :p


I will amend my stretching statement from before. I did a post-race stretch last night after my calf locked up during the sprint finish. I had to stop pedalling and went from a potential win to 5th coasting in :(

crickets on in about 20min. Whos gonna watch considering its a one dayer.
I dunno if its been mentioned but that 20-20 match was a waste of time

climbo 01-12-06 08:42 PM

i'll be watching some of it tonight.

20-20, yeah, not much chop on TV, might be more fun live.

Brian 01-12-06 08:45 PM

Well, I'm all about cricket.

mrkott3r 01-12-06 08:46 PM

for me 20-20 was fast food.
I really enjoy test match cricket as its more than just whackin a ball and setting a defensive field.
I dont really enjoy one dayers

:eek: you totally ignored the 5th commandment of Sgt. Barnes: "Take the pain! Take it! " :eek:

Back in my day if a calf locked up in a sprint we'd just reach down there 'n rip it clean orf, and tuck it into a jersey pocket so as ma could stich it back on when we got home.

Brian 01-12-06 08:58 PM

Test matches are much better. What more could a bloke ask for?

Haha. Maybe if it had been the club champs, but I did kind of want to be able to drive my car home afterwards :)

Back in the day I used to play hockey through and with injuries. This is probably why my ankles can now rotate nearly through 360 unaided.

Never mind, Jock. I must have already made my indifference to cricket known. He's not taking the bait.

Shame on you, in the 2 lap handicap I got a lead out for 1 lap, then almost pulled up on the back straight due to leg/back pain.
I looked round and the nearest rider was about 100m+ behind me. so I kept pedalling and hung in there by the skin of my teeth! :D

Haven't seen much of thylo lately. Wonder if he's over here poking around:
