Poor old Manuel - even when he lashes out the dosh, it's always slightly off

It happened a week or so ago and there was a very caring twitter quote from Jonathan Vaughters (his team boss), who said something along the lines of, 'what did you run over, a hand grenade??'
yeah the Utah one - he apparently hit a pole that helps snow ploughs identify the edge of the road. Luckily he flipped onto his back and kind of rolled put of it.

Just about. The afro's not going well though.
I could be offended by that comment, if it weren't absolutely true.Poor old Manuel - even when he lashes out the dosh, it's always slightly off

No am just worried about the selotape coming undone following the consequences of the visa bill coming.

Use a bit of the twine to secure it so if it does slip out it'll just bounce around. Just make sure there's no dogs about.
Or just let it go - you've already lost your balls

Right you Assos lads just treat myself to some T pro bib shorts and ordered extra large and they fit like a glove apart from round the short bottoms, where I can easily get my finger in. Are they slack around there or am I a git lanky skinny legged freak? All my other shorts fit ok.
What you doing poking your fingers in man.Leave it along,it'll never get better.
I got some a while back and they seem like a winter thing to me.I feel like i'm wearing a corset.Though,i've no idea what a corset would feel like.Honest.

Well I went out for an hour in them tonight and they seem spot on, whether they're a lot better than my DHB long ones? Time will tell.

Oleg is certainly a character... Some choice words about EBH on Twitter this afternoon.

Mine's crap. I think I'll get an exercise bike for next winter

I think they are adjustable,aren't they?When i assembled mine,about nine months back,there was different settings for different size wheels.
yeah looked at a few online- seems most are compatible

Worst weather imaginable out there today. Sun, wind and deluges. Kernts.
Manuel

Just windy here, went out with layers for the first time in ages this morning, just a quick one as I had to get back to my combine. 2 hours combining and the bloody thing fell to bits. Making slow progress on my Sunday morning hill though
