Bikes: how long have you got?
.....yep that'll do it...I literally couldn't ride around the block if I hadn't eaten. Even when the 'coaching nazi' has me doing a 2hour session before work, I still get up an hour before starting to eat & *****.....can't ride before my morning constitutional!

this guy with his "steel types" question:https://www.cyclingforums.com/t179755.html
Poor guy, I couldn't come up with anything good, then, as usual, the big bully "Boudreaux" picks on the poor bugger.
He wanted to know, apart from weight, what's the difference between good old hi-tensile steel and the new, lighter steels. All I could come up with was some general crap about ride quality.

I saw Phil Anderson about 3 years ago down at St Kilda Pier, and, being a "biker", I couldn't believe he wasn't being harrassed by millions of people. So, I thought "fuk it, I'll say 'g'day' without sounding like an idiot". But (you can imagine the rest), I was like: "wow, your Phil Anderson (now you know)...man..wow...how's it goin'?"
Naturally, he had this look like he was thinking: "oh no, another fat d1ckhead on an old Paconi".
He couldn't get away from me quick enough

The Boudreaux thread:
https://www.cyclingforums.com/t97322.html
Hitchy's opener:
LOL....don't scare him/her/it off though...its the highlight of my day seeing who Bourdreaux has rubbished....the master of the one liner, the consumate 'put down' performer. I'm convinced people post things just to see if they can get a 'Hoey'......keep up the good work Boudreaux!......I might start the Boudreaux fan club.....any takers?.....anyone?......anyone?........
cheers,
Hitchy

Actually Phil & stuey are 2 of the nicest guys you could possibly meet.....Our club president is a mate of Phil's...as a result i've met him a few times, (& now get sponsored by his company..... yipee!). I was abit like you, didn't know what to say the first time I met him (& stuey)...but very easy going guys. I've got a 6 foot poster autographed poster of Phil on the back of the 'bikeroom' door (actually the study, but with 3 bikes in there.......).

Phil = top bloke.
Well....now if we're bragging....I'll have to mention my signed Lance poster of him winning the Worlds in Norway in 1993. I also bought a few of those sign-on sheets from the JCTDU.
