HippY Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 after nearly 3 years of on and off, spending countless money, I just realised that I do not have time for trials, I will give it a go at college, as I could ride in Belfast, but as secondary hobby, school and the competition... I am not sure if I can/want to make time for trials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Yoshi Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 I jumped in a river so I didn't waste water.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadManMike Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I don't see it as wasting water. What I do disagree with is how barely any of the money actually goes towards research. Same as many big charities, most of the money goes towards wages and marketing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Lots of stressy things in my life at the moment has resulted in me going away a lot and going for big rides on my bike, and I've used £225 of fuel on a month, which is at least 3 times as much as I usually spend. (It does 50mpg and I walk to work, so £225 is a lot). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Couldn't be arsed to ride Haven't been on my bike for close to 7 weeks now. A definite "never thought this would ever happen" moment was 2 weeks ago when me and my missus went to a mountain resort I visit every year since 2005 with the best riding spots in the country. Was there for a week, didn't take the bike out from the car. Instead went sightseeing and the best memories I have from that week of riding is getting the munchies and going to an epic restaurant every day. Maybe a change in the bike could help, I've been riding the same frame for over 3 years now. Thinking about an Ozonis Cannibal, lower bb could be more interesting. Still got a month of riding left till it gets cold... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrialsIsHard Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Not getting halls at uni- not the end of the world. Trying to find people to share a house with ad get them to commit, travelling to Swansea, finding a house and ultimately renting it is a fling pain in the back side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamKidney Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Cars decided its going to consume/lose oil in some manner thats yet to be entirely solved. Think its time to get the timing chain on I've bought, give it a thorough clean and sell it on... been a constant headache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogre Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 i'm in a bind as to which cadence sensor to buy; the topeak one is £10 cheaper but you can't replace the batteries. the tomtom one matches and i already have one but i dislike it being a 2 part design. fwp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 The next round of "ooh look my kid is so amazing" posts are appearing on Facebook, as all the little shitlings are starting school.Seen two mothers now posting publically about how proud they are that their offspring had a whole entire day without pissing themselves. Not sure how that's something to be proud of personally... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew62 Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 The next round of "ooh look my kid is so amazing" posts are appearing on Facebook, as all the little shitlings are starting school. Seen two mothers now posting publically about how proud they are that their offspring had a whole entire day without pissing themselves. Not sure how that's something to be proud of personally... I'm glad I'm not the only one subjected to this shit. What amazes me is besides that natural (I imagine) sense of proudness/love for your child, why is it new parents think that everyone else (many of whom have no link or affiliation to the child) share their wonderment? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 In the same sense I couldn't give a flying f**k how shiny someone has managed to polish the front wing on their moneypit of a car or which nightclub someone went to the night before or which football team just won/lost/etc but it doesn't fill me with rage I just ignore it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 There's probably going to loads of people on my friends list not into the sport who think "Oh f**king hell he's put another boring video of himself riding his bike, who even cares?" Think of it that way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bing Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 I've not put any pictures of my lad up, its nowt new, he's into his 3rd year now. My car is a shitbox not worth posting up, and I can't ride a bike long enough to film a clip without crashing. Is that ok for you Dave?Although scum united getting beaten 4-0 by mk dons was a source of great amusement 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 I was more pointing out the fact that at some point someone is going to post something you have no interest in, so what if people are posting about their kids it's not something to get wound up about just like anything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
