I got fooled by the missus today. And she normally has no sense of humour.

Ok you skinny little skinny tire guys. I had my first real BMX race tonight. First race, came in 4 out of 5, which may have been charity, but I put in a decent effort to try to get 3rd. Second race, first turn, the unpleasant sound of my chain breaking. That's the 2nd chain I've broken, and on different bikes. There's always next week though.

here's one of the whingey threads
https://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=96546
Joe rigged the forum so that it looked like we'd been hacked, with a line through every bit of text, and every post accompanied by this green thing, but without the
fire-farts

I though it was kinda funny. The forum went into meltdown, with some people thinking it was the end of the world, some thinking it was funny, and some grumpy people whinging that it was childish and purile.

....childish & purile is this threads AKA!....I'm for it, 'specially cos the seppo's got so uptight about it!....Now...onto more important matters.....the busted 486 saga!....looks at this stage like they are gunna replace it (subject to some French dudes approval, which is apparently a formality)....what colour should I get?....the 05 models don'thave the same colour scheme. I'm not keen on the 'kelme' blue or the blue in the 'custom' models. I'm leaning toward the black & white in the 'customs'...check it out & let me know what ya's think
