Just in case people are watching it later...

I want to go but trying to sort transportation... Anyone coming through/near Cheltenham willing to give me a lift?

That was a great video. Get a helmet on your head though lad!

Skinny jeans, no t-shirt and a beany is possibly the stupidest clothing I have seen someone wear in a long time... Was an OK video though.

I doubt you'll get many comments because those were 3 big videos for just one post! And people on this forum are pretty lazy haha I watched all 3 though, think the 3rd was my favourite. This guys hook technique is excellent, so smooth!

Mate put up "just won £50,000 on a scratchcard!" and I bloody fell for it at first haha He's been deleting all the comments who have twigged on and people are still biting... Got my brother a treat earlier. The lazy f**k didn't go to school and has been sleeping all morning, so I ran in shouting "GRANT GET UP THERE'S A f**kING FIRE, COME ON WE NEED TO GET OUT THE HOUSE!!!" and he absolutely shat himself First time I've properly done an April Fools.

Explosions in the Sky? Frou Frou? Bonobo?

Chris King Classic Hub; Mine has been going for over 2.5 years failure free whilst Kyle has broken something like 5 Pro2s in less time. Owning one also means you get to laugh at fools who think they're crap BB7 old and new; Awesome, if a little heavy Rohloff; How is mine still going!? Magura HS33; I think the innumerable pre-05 maggies still going is proof of their status Carbonique booster; I must be real lucky because most people seem to think these aren't stiff, mine's 2nd only to the Tensile and weighs f**k all! Proper CF top cap; found on eBay, I just love it because all the other ones I see have alloy bases, weighs as much as a fly's turd!

Awesome video!

HAHA WTF? How would they even tell lol

I keep coming across conflicting data across the 'net atm so I'm gunna back out for now and not turn this discussion into an arguement. But I might be back!!!

Gutted. Mine's lasted over 2.5 years. EDIT: I don't even want to try and guess how old Neil T's is either...

I'm gunna be there Nick, so you'd better haul your ass up here. I'd like to make everyone aware that I will probably still be a complete cripple and will ride appaulingly because of it.

WHO ARE YOU AND WHY DO YOU RIDE SO FAST!?!?!? Saw you out the shop and the old bint serving me took so long to process my delicous cornetto that you'd gone by the time I got out. Does anyone know who this is?

No, are you? If what you said was true then titanium components could be 1/4 of the weight of steel equivalents. Yield stress is measured in pressure, which is force/area. NOT force/density. In which case you wouldn't have been talking complete bollocks In English terms, titanium is nearly (~10% like I said) as strong as steel, but around half the weight. You were suggesting that titanium is twice as strong whilst being half the weight, this is, unfortunately for us engineers, not true.

Go to bed Shaun! I'm such an idiot sometimes...

Good because you're wrong GENERALLY speaking (and that's improtant because we're talking alloys of which there are infinite combinations) titanium alloys are ~10% weaker than steel. I don't know alot about Ti alloy properties but as you've reinforced above from what I've heard it seems to work harden quicker than steel and in spokes this results in spokes snapping sooner and being more brittle when bent/manipulated.

Playing War of the Monsters on PS2 with my housemates and a few friends. It's f**king brilliant!!! 9AM lecture tomorrow though

Holy crap Slinger is so good... Great video.

Could anyone owed over £25 in goods please contact me (PM). I will see what I can do to sort you out. I'm not making any promises as currently I'm a very busy man and I certainly don't have time for any petty stuff like postage costs etc. You'll have to spend your own time on that one I'm afraid. Nick I'm told he's sorted it out with the company now, give them a ring tomorrow if it's a no go, get in touch (you may/may not have my number?).

I'll be there unless Uni work grabs me by the balls.

Porthcrawl is near impossible to ride on a shitty day btw. It's ridiculously windy, to the point you get chronic earache. On a nice day though it's pretty unbeatable...

I think I'd say an F40 although I have a feeling I'd regret it after a week of British roads! If we go slightly outside supercars then I'd have a E63 AMG estate. ROAR!

Watching Buffy Cheese and bean toastie f.-t.-w.

My friend has been looking deeply into becoming a fireman. He's found that it normally takes around 3-5 years to just start the process of joining so he's got that on the side whilst he continues with his current career.
