Here's one of the old-school logic problems that I used to do on wet holidays in Devon. Man, I was a sad kid. I've tailored it a bit to suit the forum.
*Five Biking Fools visted LFGSS and were keen to try out some of the forum rides. What were the fools' names, what was the name of the bike they rode first and how many points out of five did they give it?
(Points column must contain numbers 1,2,3,4,5)*
Jeez gave one more point to the bike that he tried first, than the person who rode the Time Machine first. Was this Snottyotter?
Skrtluv's bike, which turned out to be a bit of a shitter, was awarded 2 less points than the bike rode first by umop3pisdn, which was not the Elephant Explorer or the Oak Randonneur.
TM's Corima was tried first by a girl and scored one more point than the bike rode first by Scoot.
Shoosh was thrilled with her first ride, not the Elephant Explorer, and gave it the highest number of points.

epic! although the dials are slightly off and that's pretty annoying.
I could remedy this for photographic porpoises by hitting 70mph, dipping the clutch and holding the revs at TDC before taking the pic. I did consider doing this for some time, but sadly the van drinks so much fuel that before I knew it, the gauge was no longer vertical

Well, that was nice. I think I won on a technicality. Mainly because I was the only person to race all of the motos in my cat (MTB), so that made it fairly easy. Had a very hairy moment when I lost the rear end in the bottom of a berm, culminating in a 4' long drift as evidenced by a cracking and kinda weirdly italic skidmark (no brakes involved). I'll be back for another blast in a fortnight.
I also rode a 24" race bike, holy crap, no wonder I can never finish first (cruisers and MTB race together but in diff cats) that thing was a demon.

I go by; arm high is turning, arm low is changing lanes, and opposite arm around the back is just a little movement within the lane.
WTF? Do people actually do this? That's confusing as hell, no wonder car drivers get frustrated. What's the difference between 'arm low' and just pointing out a pot hole?
Here comes an obstacle, I'll take one hand off the bars and put it behind my back. Well that's really fucking sensible.
Not ranting at you Tenners, just the concept.

Looks like it'll be wicked bendix, ignore my sarky comment, my mate has a trek 69er and it's lovely. I think the benefit is that the rear end remains short for delicious manual labia and nimbleness whilst the front is rolley and goes over everything. Of course this makes the bike go at two speeds, which is just weird.

I got BCC copied in on an email conversation between my boss and supervisor discussing sacking me from my shit temp position. So that was nice.
Also I asked my dealer if he had any 'tickets' (used to use this phrase way back as he worked in a theatre) got overheard by my mum who then thought that he could hook her up with cut-price deals to see fucking Coppelia on Ice.

Sorethroat you say you're ill
But have you tried a pill?
Maybe gin and tonic
Or something hydroponic
A touch of homeopathy
To rebalance your chi (you see)
It's only sugar and water
But something that you oughta
Try, it'll fix your tickly throat
But not your tickly scrote
You'll need the clinic for that...
We are obviously thinking of different 'Urban Downhill' events
