Hey listen damp pads, we used to piss in our pants on purpose during racing, you can't mess about in the money game. Now go and get your bladder seen to. Were talking about beating the best. Merckx, Kelly, Roche and riders you might read about in books. You don't know who we are, and we don't give a shit who you are. Now clear off with the turdo posers, no miles, no brains, nice bikes, but you don't know what to do with them. If you are that good, then fly to Europe with your bike, and sort it out, languages as well. That's what we did. Plenty of racing available. Back to the wanker section for you I think.

Life won't be worth living for the aspirants this coming season. BRF is going to win the Champs in Austria. So expect an even higher mileage after Xmas. Why did I ever leave the area? Spring comes earlier, and stays better. It's not warm in the winter, but it's not as dreek. Billy Holmes, who used to live where I now live, still says ' Well there's always trees with green on them, makes you feel better in the winter'. 1st Jan. expect the barrage, after all that's when it really begins.

Americans weigh down cruise ship DOZENS of seats on the world's most luxurious cruise liner have collapsed under the weight of obese American passengers. The chairs -- on the Queen Mary 2 -- are being replaced or repaired. The seating is mainly in the bar and restaurant areas. Alstom Chantiers, the French company that provided the liner with all its fixtures and fittings, claimed many of the chairs had buckled under the weight of larger passengers. "There are some things that need to be changed or replaced," said a spokesman. "For instance, there are some problems with the chairs because some of our passengers are heavier than we imagined. "It's not an English problem, it's probably more American." An unnamed former member of the ship's crew said: "We do have many large passengers on the QM2. Most of the passengers are American. "And we do have 10 restaurants on the ship, so if they are big when they get on, they tend to be bigger when they get off." |

and those restautants are strategically placed around the extremeties the ship to maximise weight displacement and are as close to the bottom as possible to lower the ships center of gravity, thus improving stablility. We wouldnt want the 'lard ship' to capsize now, would we? 10 restaurants, hungry stuff all this sitting on your arse all day doing nothing. |

Disrespect! If it wasn't for the Americans no matter how big they may be. You would be speaking German right now. Don't forget IT!

Where? Please point out the disrespect in Lim's post. If you are embarassed by your country's obesity problem, which it sounds like you are by being so defensive, do something about it and quit your bleating. |

What's going on? 243 messages about cycling (sort of) Now we've got fat Murky ballast on the QM, Krauts and Nips. Stop it please, don't ruin our refuge. There are plenty of Merkin crap sites elsewhere. Let it sink slowly to the bottom, and don't reply. You naughty boys.

That's a beauty! I did send an e to Kathy in Valencia, no reply, but it hasn't come back as undelivered. I also sent one to Tony Bell, no reply and not returned. I think that they both have boxes all over the place. Tony's website is down, and has been for ages. As for Hetchins, like you Lim, I'm surprised he hasn't come in, and I do know that MCM has poked him with a sharp stick. Must have a word with MCM, I'm sure she's got a good few addresses somewhere.

Redneck, I got it a bit right, and a bit wrong. He was at Uni Alabama to start with, then he went as weights coach To Auburn, San Diego. he did all the footballers, and he coached your great Bill Kazimaier and others. He got 41/2 years in jail, and 5 years probation for supplying steroids. A lovely person, who looked after me and Charlie Callan in Manchester.UK. We used to spend hours in the cafe/rest room looking through Martindales Pharmacoepia for 'things'. The only thing we could beat him at were calf raises. A delightful man who helped everybody on the weights. He used to take special care of an old chap who had had a stroke, when he came in the gym, he left the others to make sure the old man got round safely. At that time he was the world champion powerlifter on the squat. How much? just over 1000lbs full squat. What are you squatting these days? I only got to 425lbs.
