Every one one's given rewalt a hard time about a few tears, when Buckley has to stop playing footy EDDY will be in eternal mourning, howling on the footy show .{may be sooner than latter} . the most intersting part of the footy show was when Sam downed that straight bottle of jim beam and Trev takes the pIss out of Edd and SAm .Zero WA content.just the way they like it.

I took a photo of him at the Draai van der Kraai post-Tour crit in Rosendaal after the 1996 Tour chatting to a local bit of crumpet.


He didn't like me doing that.

One Carrera, one Banesto. I think the Carrera rider was a Venezulean called Leonardo Sierra or something, some Bike Forums trainspotter out there will know. From what I remember, the blue started over some racial abuse....."new world Spanish-speaking white trash" or to that effect.

I've heard that that's one reason the team bosses like Aussies, coz there's no Euro provincial bigotry

alright......another stoopid question.

who is Sheldon Brown and why is he referred to in this forum nearly as much as a certain Texan with one nut?

Thylacine 03-31-05 11:25 PM

and yet hate everyone equally. :)

You obviously missed the 'who is this Sheldon Brown character' thread last week

531Aussie 03-31-05 11:26 PM

Did you see the "who the hell is Sheldon Brown" thread? :)
http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...hlight=sheldon

He's some guru bike mechanic with a HUGE web site with a bazillion bits of info
http://www.sheldonbrown.com/

531Aussie 03-31-05 11:29 PM

Some people get him mixed up with Sean Eadie

climbo 03-31-05 11:29 PM

another classic Sheldon, a bit weak this one I thought.

He does know quite a lot of stuff about bikes though, I ordered from him a few times for some more obscure items.
