Yeah seems fair enough. Will come by and get some tomorrow.

ah shit... now I feel an overwhelming urge to go and rescue my bike from outside and keep it next to me all day.

to be fair if they said he was riding "like a bat out of hell" as evidence then that is not very descriptive at all. what the fuck does that mean?

haven't you listened to any meatloaf?

I fucking hate cyclists who ride on the pavement for no reason.. it's so unnecessary and dangerous

i was joking, dude.

i am not fussed either way.
cash each month sounds like a pain.
i reckon a stump up at the start and top three finishers win set up would be the the easiest.

I figured that - didn't you get my e-sarcasm? Damn internet.

pay at start and money for champions league places is good.. thats the only way to make it work. Either that or winner takes all.

If you want to run a money league, just start another and give the code to people as they pay you. Simple.

In my experience, any attempt to get money involved in fantasy league ends up in a big mess and a shitload of inconvenience to the person "organizing" it. Probably best avoided.

maxxis detonators - so grippy, last forever, not had any punctures in 5 months and they come in colours too! Win win win win

Maxxis make THE best tyres, hands down

Talking of the Guardian Football podcast, when the fuck is the season preview one going to be? I was expecting it on monday, hope its coming tomorrow!

They already did it - last week... refresh your itunes podcast thing

nice fantasy football article by the mighty barry glendenning, or football weekly fame, if you don't listen to the football weekly podcast on the guardian you should!..

• Lots. If only the cycling podcast could be anywhere near as good, that thing is awful
  

how much for the cranks & chain rings posted?

Courtesy of Mark Cavendish, fast, and full of graceful arrogance:

''When journalists at the Tour de France ask me if I am the best sprinter, I answer 'Yes', and that's seen as arrogance, but if they don't ask me, I don't say I'm the best sprinter in the world.''

''The fact is, you look at the replays of my wins at the Tour, and I'm the fastest sprinter. I'm stating a fact. It's not just me saying 'I'm the fastest sprinter' without backing it up - I'm stating a fact, you know? I don't see how that can be seen as arrogance when it's just telling the truth. But people can take me as they want? I don't give a shit really.''

''The others were all trying to save themselves for the team time trial. We were the only sprint team willing to take responsibility. All the other teams are riding like they're juniors and if they want to behave that way then they get results like juniors.''

I missed those.. not quite what I wanted, but wow.. good quotes.

“Look down the valley…if you’ve got vertigo, sort of…don’t look down the valley.”

yeah whatever hippy - you're right, everyone else in the world is stupid/dense/wrong. Standard.

Perhaps I was too vague initially, apologies for that, but there's no need to be such an arse about this stuff - doesn't it get a bit boring after a while?

I've said thanks, I'll say it again.. cheers. I meant it then, I mean it now.

Now can we stop this?

Thanks TSK, some good ones there. Especially "He's all over his machine" :)

Which you received and then had a whinge about, before (finally) qualifying what you actually wanted. Help request fail.

Finally? What after 2 posts and 5 minutes?

I didn't whinge, I just hate it that the minute you ask a question here, it's like a race to see who can say UTFS or use Let me get that for you, or just make a stupid sarcastic comment.

Ta for the help you (finally) provided.

Look, it's not our fault that racing cyclists aren't Shakespeare.

Have you tried reading "The Rider" or "Roadie"? You can buy them from shops or on the Internet. I'm sure someone here could tell you how to find them.

yes, actually that is helpful. I'll run out an find one on oxford street somewhere.

I'm not blaming anyone or saying it's anyone's "fault", but was just asking for some help/suggestions.

it needs to be short - because I have to set it by hand in the typeface that my avatar is in..

and no, none of the one's like "It never gets easier, you just go faster." are quite right.

Did you even look at teh second link? It's got Lemond, etc...

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"Perhaps the single most important element in mastering the techniques and tactics of racing is experience. But once you have the fundamentals, acquiring the experience is a matter of time."

YES mate I did.. I looked at ALL of them for about an hour before I posted here. I just thought that someone here might know somewhere thats a good resource that doesn't show in the first 3 pages of google search.

Utfs

Seriously though, wtf was wrong with the first hit that came up?

Or the second link?

How many fuckign quotes do you need?

There goes my be nice for 240 posts shit.

Just the one - got to be the right one though.

It just wasn't what I was looking for - I'm not after what Einstein/Hemmingway/Conan Doyle thought of "the bicycle" .. I want quotes from racers or about racing. Maybe I wasn't specific enough.

Not really, but it is cheap.

yeah apparently it's nowhere near as good as "the web"

This site is pretty good.

yeah - funny. I'm not a retard, I can use google. Just not had much luck, same things come up again and again.

Same old shit - guess what I tried google and don't tell me to UTFS.. I just thought someone on here might be helpful instead of jumping at the chance to say something facetious

Have you tried the Internet?

I've heard about that - is it any good?

Anyone know a good resource for cycling quotes, more specifically one's that relate to road cycling?
