On Sun, 19 Apr 2009 22:51:00 +0100, "Wally" <atdot@dotat.atdot I recently passed two cyclists riding two abreast on a B-road. I'm interested in opinions on whether my approach to passing was okay from a cyclist's perspective. It was on a country road that's about wide enough for two cars doing around 40mph or so, going in opposite directions, to pass each other without feeling that wing mirrors are going to get lopped off. On this road, I would say that this takes some care with road posi...

Before leaving England I raced mainly in the North where I was working although I am from Hertfordshire. I emigratied to Holland in 1993 where I still cycle although I do not race (since 2006) anymore. I recently visited people in Surrey and took a bike with me. This was a grave mistake! I am afraid to say that the...

חיפשתי את זה בפורום ולא ראיתי שהביאו את זה, דווקא די נחמד. "I don't go to titty bars much anymore. They have never really appealed to me. Like going into an expensive restaurant, reading the menu for 2 hours, drinking a little, then getting up and leaving without having had anything to eat but paying the bill anyway." We knew the chickenshit motherfuckers were going to pirate us no matter how cheap we made the DVD, and that there would be chickenshit motherfuckers who would steal it. Can't be he...

I found this to be some interesting reading... (kinda long) Linky to Original By Bob Mionske "A few months ago, I received a phone call from a cyclist with an incredible story about an incident in Lawrence County, Ohio. Because the cyclist-a guy named Tony Patrick-was in need of an attorney, I hooked him up with Steve Magas, a contributing author to Bicycling & the Law, and a well-known bicycling attorney in Ohio. After hearing Tony's story, Steve took his case. More about that later; first, let...

Hi, folks. Newbie to this board with some questions about the manufactured homes villages. Sorry if it's a bit long but I'm a wannabe with questions. I've been lurking on this board for a few days and I've seen only passing references to the manufactured homes area; one person asking about flooding because he's interested in a home on Vermont Ave. and a woman who says she and her husband bought a manufactured home recently. So, I don't know how many of you live there and/or have much knowledge o...

Okay, I won't be able to answer during the day. The Federal government takes a dim view of employees using the Internet at work. They don't like us wasting taxpayer dollars. That's Congress' job. After work, I have to go do some hill repeats. Leave your questions here, and I'll try to answer when I get home tonight. In case there might be one or two of you who don't know me from the original POTD, you can find it here I also want to say before any of you read any further, some of you might not l...

Part I: Howdo. Woke up early Sunday morning, MrsArallsopp still asleep. Thought it would be nice to pop out and grab the day's paper before the family wake up. I need to log some miles this month, so what the hell, I'll take the 'bent. Hmmm... Now I know people tease Auntie Helen for logging grocery trips, so maybe this wouldn't be fair. Thing is, for her to go get groceries means going all the way to Essex! If those aren't loggable miles, clearly I'm going to have to go a bit further afield. Wo...
