he's about 6ft 31 & 110kgs, former track world champion...makes aliving outta fitting blokes to the wrong size frames!

Hitchy

Ah, didn't know he was a Hell Ride regular. :)

Did he win much?

You must've raced him on the track in the early 90s?

....at 5 to 7 every satiurday, the shop door slowly opens...his highness wheels out the weapon dejour......& then proceeds to hammer to mordie before retiring to the back of the bunch....I've never seen him get up olivers

hitchy

I reckon he just does that for some quick advertising, then rushes back to the shop
to jack up the latte prices for when all you suckers get back.

it's been done.....not easily, you know, laws of physics and all.

I remember him racing at Northcote one night being carried out into the track centre on a sedan chair by some girls in bikinis....then throwing Kennedy bidons into the crowd. Gold.

Ah. How did I not know?

CAAARM ON, ED....did you ever whoop him? Torch him? Burn him? Blow 'im off the boards, or blow him into the dam at VFL Park?



(now they'll have to put us in the track cycling fourm)

Nah...he was actually a great talent.

After all them weights, you could make a comeback as a pure track sprinter, and only race for a coupla months every summer. :p

not likely.

How can sutch a simple thing as a push-bike become so bloody complicated ?

Dunno. I'm still drinking my beer.

beer at this time of the day? Im onto the rum already !

Yeah, but we're still at work. So beer it is. They get narky when we drink spirits in the office. :(

yer they do eh , im on nights so its for medical purposes, ( to knock me out ) only Capt. Morgan tho , how about a bottle of Bunderburg for Xmas from you mob ??

I usually only drink on other people's time, or if I'm stuck at a boring wedding :p

Or at some boring cycling trophy/cheque presentation where you've been spat out the back and have crawled in just as the ceremonies start... just like Hitchy, eh?

:eek:

rum,flat coke with 4 crushed Panadol Xtra in the 2nd water bottle ,just the job for the last cupla big climbs when the tanks empty & the legs feel like lead :eek:

Payback. For a post the interefering b@stard made while I was flirting with A.Troll on another thread.

Glad Mr Saxa's firewall is so flame-proof, though...

....except when he's at home minding the kids, wanting for the missus to get home so he can go ride!....& i've still got one more 'warnie' in my skyrocket than you Rowan!

Oops.... :D

Don't quite get the last bit, though... please explain!

OK.....I'd assumed that you were commenting on my coming in on "melb to warnambool " about 1.5hrs after the winner....I was pointing out that, that may well be the case....but I've done one more 'warnie' than you!

Hitchy

Geez... I thought you were talking about Shanie Warnie... flippers, scooters, skidders and the like. It thought the skyrocket was another one he was pulling out of his repertoire.

Ah heck... back on cricket again.

We did try.

However, I HAVE done Anglesea to Warnie, and beyond to Halls Gap and beyond there to Moyston, and back again. I've probably covered more distance than you...

How big was your skyrocket again?
