.... but: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/manchester/4166292.stm Now I *know* that the residents of the fine city of Manchester aren't all thick-as-pigshit thieves. I really do. So I suggest you band together and hang this guy from a lamp post ASAP. -- Wicked Uncle Nigel - Manufacturer of the "Champion-105" range of rearsets and Ducati Race Engineer.

Richard A says... Excellent, I can now properly insult my mate who's been living in Penmanmawr for the last 10 years. He's learnt Welsh since he's lived there.
They're missing some sort of phonetic guide to it. Welsh is one of those languages which is funnier when spoke wrong.

No (because the driving here is lethal; if I move back to Qatar I'll get one). But *I'm* not the one belittling another for not /owning/ a bike. When that criticism comes from someone who owns a bike and seldom uses it, I think it's a little cheeky.
I think the point is that someone belittling anothers riding when the one flinging the dirt doesn't even own a bike is pushing things a bit.
Not really, trainers/coaches the world over in every discipline create contenders despite not actually having the same equipment/ability as their protege. Think of bear as Burgess Meredith out of Rocky, holding a fishing rod while the fish- that's you- is caught on a hook which has been baited with a fossilised worm covered in bbq sauce. If that isn't summer blockbuster material then I'll eat lightning and crap thunder.
