    Films!?

    I loved Casino Royale. meh'd at Quantam but oculdn't be bothered to finish Skyfall - so do I go see Spectre?

    Deep Water

    You've reached the point where your amount of skill is more frustrating than enjoyable to watch That tap to rear without brakes. It's just not supposed to be like that.
  3. Loved the little half pedal kicks

    John Williams constantly making me jizz
  5. In case anyone's had a message saying you can't give reputation points to a member, it's been happening to me when I've had Hola Free VPN running but when it's off works fine. Thought I'd mention for anyone who comes to TF on a Netflix break.
  6. The Complete Collection of Calvin and Hobbes in hardback. Hoping it rains so I won't feel bad staying in all weekend.
  7. So you know this is a push bike forum right?
  8. Obviously good but felt like as a routine kind of thing it could have done with some more variation there
  9. I was terrified of truing wheels at first though, especially when I afraid of making it worse with a paperboys salary. £5 at a shop seemed better than potentially messing it up so much I'd need a new rim. But then I manned up and can admit to enjoying the challenge of a tough nipple twisting session.
  10. Sounds like the start of a sexy apocalypse to me. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-34269315?ns_mchannel=social&ns_campaign=bbc_daily_politics_and_sunday_politics&ns_source=facebook&ns_linkname=news_central Does this warrant a topic? Yes it does. Prevention is better than a cure so I'm predicting sales of chastity belts go through the roof.
  11. Loving riding, drops to manuals are now one of my favourite things. And I'm not even embarrassed, this is a great riding song -
  12. People always say cats aren't loyal, but when I get home a lot of the times I see her in my bedroom window and by the time I've opened the door she's already there. She even gives me those little massages so it's nice to have a relationship that goes both ways. So yea, your dog probably had it coming.
  13. America's very spread out. I'm all for doing things alone but everyone always forgets New York is a state and not just the city, going from New York City to Toronto is a pretty solid drive on your own.
  14. Really anything you'd like to make hotter without damaging it
  15. Every time this has happened to me I just decide on another hobby which is why my room has a guitar, a keyboard, a bow, a few screenplays, an inflatable kayak and a George Foreman grill scattered around. Admittedly grilling things might not be considered a hobby but I spent a lot of time using it and, y'know, get that protein.
  16. Past few months it's actually been okay. Options came to having another operation with a smaller chance of success then the first time of hope for best so opted for the hope for the best option. It's annoying having to be worried about crawling home but the riding I've been doing's been pretty fun recently so fingers crossed kind of deal.
  17. Dammit, my doctor called it the crucial ligament as a joke the first time and that's the only way I remember it now I didn't even find the joke funny
  18. Well technically I'm permanently injured now so you should go on ahead At least I can try using it to get out of conscription if that ever comes
  19. I’m going to talk about my injury again here only kind of though. A guy I went to school with is a rower and got badly bruised in a boat collision so will not be able to row for a couple months, and he’s having articles in local papers written and everyone’s writing to him saying how unfortunate it is. I don’t resent that, I just hate that I don’t have a ligament called the crucial ligament but because it was a bike thing people look at you like you’re a stupid five year old who did a jump in your parents garden. And it’s a rowing boat, they don’t move that fast. Why aren’t people making fun of him for being too stupid to not stop instead of crashing into someone. I had the same thing when I was in America when I was on crutches and people laugh when they find out you’re doing a silly bike trick but it’s a tragedy when the school’s precious little football player twists his ankle and misses a few games. Why are things like throwing a ball to get it over a painted line and rowing to beat someone so glorified? The thing is I do feel bad for the guy because it sucks not getting to do the stuff you love doing, I just hate that how much people feel bad for you is based on the sport.
