Re: Cycling Thread

Pogacar is in a category of his own this year, mind-blowing. I'm beginning to wonder if Vingegaard is back on form, but Pogi simply has got even better than he was last year. Wild to think that he's only 26 too.

Re: Trump

That is precisely on-brand for PR people, they don't give a fuck about what anyone else says, thinks or does when there's an opportunity for press coverage. Worst case, they get a slap on the wrist from the Secret Service for ignoring their orders. Best case they get photo of the year, which would c...

Also re: the flag lowering, has anyone seen that from another angle, because the camera is panning up at the same time which would explain it.

Re: Trump

One of the most common sayings in photo/video journalism in America is "If it bleeds, it leads", meaning that if you get a shot of the bloodied mess on the stage, you've guaranteed yourself a headline story. Trump knows this, the team knew this, and the photographers know it better than an...

Re: Trump

I've worked very closely with quite a few PR people over the last few years and they are so ferociously ruthless and Machiavellian at ensuring their client has the maximum press exposure that if one of his team had NOT done this, Trump would have fired them on Monday. Of all the things Trump does, h...

He might not want to dominate for three weeks, but he certainly did last year :lol:

Either way, really looking forward to the racing over the coming week :D

Another vote for chop saws here, even though I barely do any woodwork, I can't stand the thought of cutting wood without one, so I bought one anyyway. They're pretty safe if you're careful with them

Re: Cycling Thread

The stage Healy won last week was an absolutely incredible performance, he's been on fire this year. It's also really great to see so much chopping and changing of the yellow jersey. I wonder if Pogacar is biding his time to make sure he's got plenty left in his legs for the mountains, because Vinge...

Been some fantastic racing so far, the ride by Ben Healy the other day was absolutely stellar.

Re: It’s time for another forum cycle/vehicle disagreement

Cycling Mikey is a sanctimonious dick. He was always in the right, but the way he always lectured people rather than simply filming and reporting was never gonna win people’s hearts.

Exactly that Sundayjumper nice work 🙌 when I had my E30 325i prior to Rich B owning it, I was on the way home from my girlfriend's, around late morning on a Saturday. She called, so I pulled over, and she told me she'd left her jacket in my car and needed it back. The road was clear in both directio...

Re: Another website & legalities question

DSR are for where you don’t like it when it arrives, not when it’s different to what you ordered. If the website shows something materially different then it’s not as described and the seller has to bear any costs. That’s what I was going to say. If this is a case of faulty/not as described then it...

Re: Your fleet running reports

At 2.15pm today, I ordered some wiper blades and Adblue from ECP on 'standard' delivery at £3.95.

The parts arrived at 4.45pm today :lol:

That's unprecedentedly fast service :shock:
