Re: Randomness
The genius Bobby Fingers. I posted before about his dioramas of Mel Gibson getting arrested for drink driving and Michael Jackson's hair getting set on fire during a shoot for a Pepsi commercial , so this is the obvious follow up: the Jeff Bezos Rowing Boat. It's nearly half an hour but I promise y...

Re: The Wine Thread
I used to be fiend for buckfast tbh. I used to neck a bottle of it before I went out. I went to a wedding not so long back where groom #1’s family got on the bus and all started tanning Bucky - we rolled most of them off the bus for the evening service. I thought they were nuts until the mum of gro...

Re: Your fleet running reports
Is a biscuit tin more practical than a faraday cage bag thingydoodah? Do you want to keep your keys safe whilst enjoying a wee chocolate hob nob when you head out in the car? It was cheaper ! Would a bag be better ? Genuine question. If the bag’s advantage is portability, surely it’s only useful if...

Re: Uber Black: Ar$e reviews of back seats
Not Uber Black, but I was in the back of a new C-class taxi today for just over an hour. The seat base was so short and uncomfortable that I messaged ScottA to moan about it… and he’s not even partly responsible!

Re: Today’s want
Was away on business this week in Europeland. Was picked up from the hotel by a colleague I hadn’t met before in a 1989 Volvo 740 Estate. 215,000 km, scruffy outside, but not a squeak, rattle or clunk. Brakes were silent and pulled it up straight. My favourite part was a 4speed box with overdrive on...

Re: The Motorbikerist Thread
Some interesting comments on boatshoes.
Apparently lost it and ended up sideways, crashing on the inside of a first-gear bend, so definitely a weird one.

Re: The Motorbikerist Thread
I don't know enough about the man or the circuit or where the incident happened. They seem to be highlighting it was an accident in a sport known for dangerous accidents - everyone is pushing their equipment to and beyond the limit. He seems to be arguing that the circuit & organisers could have...

Also worth looking into gel seat covers? Can get them on line pretty cheap.

Alpine Bikes were independent - had a shop in Gt Western Road where I got my first Trek. Tiso bought them over around 2007-ish.

Re: Mountain Biking general thread
Here, can someone recommend a comfyish saddle that doesn't look like a piles cushion? My usual choice is killing me on a daily commute and I don't want to wear padded undershorts as neither taking my trousers off at work or sitting all day in something that feels nappyesque appeals. I wonder how mu...

Re: Drunk Purchases
Must admit, I've used booze to Put My Big Boy Pants On and make big purchases, but those were purchases that I'd already decided to make and was just fear't of pulling the trigger on them. I don't think I've ever accidentally drunk-purchased anything in my life. Clearly I'm missing out on the surpr...
