What??....I haven't been keeping up....

Is there anything you haven't done? Plenty. But not much of it is stuff I'd want to do. I figure I've got one shot & have to make it count, just like anyone else. And I also figure that if someone else has done it, then there's no reason why I can't too. And if I'm afraid of something, then I a...

There'd be a vibration in my intestinal tract. And not in a good way. BUT!!!! Is that not how it is supposed to be (in racing, not my tummy)??? I mean......the engines don't last long, none of the equipment does. Isn't the old axiom of racing "If you're not breaking stuff, you're not going hard...

Not surprised. The pressure on the guys in pitlane is immense...your whole day is focused on that 30-45 second stop. I wore a lid when I worked pit at Fontana. The pitlane is a tremendously dangerous place to be, and the heat coming off the cars (in my case) was unbelievable. And what can it hurt?? ...

It's once every 4 years....it's 'seldom' enough that I usually find the time to watch at least some of it, and I have to admit I've watched more than I usually do this time around But it does have cycling, which I'm really into, and a few other things. I kinda enjoy the Winter Olympics more...can re...

That sounds legit.

2nd to whom????

11 mile run???

I get tired driving that far.

You might as well, I missed them....and there's kinda a clue in the title for anyone who doesn't want to know//

Otherwise what is this thread about??

LOL....indeed!!

Yep.....that's about as nice a looking bike as you could want.

And even reflects your soccer tastes.

Sadly.

You've got to what age???

Thought you were still a youngling??

I had to look up 'moreish'.

New one on me.

Sorry....pedal kind.

The rear disc set-up on one of them is an absolute POS.

Which makes perfect sense, as it's about the most expensive blinged-out junk-fest in the entire cosmos.

Avid 'Juicy' Carbon sommit...??


I borrow a Honda or my old Daytona if I need to.....stepson has the latter.

Working on one of the bikes today.

Eventually.

It's hard to fault the look of that. I always liked the asymmetric look of a side exhaust. Looks a bit stodgy by today's standards, but the view out the front will still be good. And fleeting.

Gangs Of New York.

Seen it before...it's a decent flick.

Really?? I never thought the two accents sounded the same. I can see why people mistake them, but they're subtly disparate...like a Geordie and a Mackem...Norcal/Socal.....Boston/ NYC..etc. They aren't subtly different, that's like telling a Scotsman he sounds Irish. The convicts were sent to Aus b...

We've won more medals in more sports than the US. Take out swimming and the US looks very weak. :D Whaaaat??? So your logic is,,,take away some of our medals, and we don't look very good??? (d) ?????? But in all seriousness....I honestly don't like the nationalistic angle of the whole thing. I unde...

What??? I don't know about you, but I'm not responsible for any of that whatsoever. You take care of your own, and you do so selfishly (in a good way)...you trust someone else to do it, and this is the result....or something like it. If you do charity work, you do it for yourself, and hope there's '...
