Im ok thanks. Decent ride out up derbyshire this week, currently cracking on with the summerhouse, roof to do this week. Trackday booked at Donny Park the week after. No growing old gracefully. Hows the chicken chaser?

Anyone who really knows me knows that i'm not into cricket, and certainly not football, but i switched over yesterday to have a butchers at the Cricket  World Cup when they were on about the last 7 overs and i must admit that it was very thrilling to watch.
Not only that.....we only went and won it as well.  :woot

[BBROWN1664]

:agree

I don't normally watch it as I find it boring though 20/20 is a lot better.

When England started batting, they were favoured 80/20 to win. By the time I went out for some dinner, it was down to 50/50 and then about 5 overs from the end it was looking more like 20/80 in NZ's favour. I didn't think they would manage it but what a finish.

Now, my understanding of Cricket is from school some 30+ years ago. 241-8 I though was a winning score compared to 241 all out. They got away with it though and then fluked that boundary to get a 6 from the knocked on ball in the super over (Who the fec knew what one of them was before yesterday?)!!

What's all this thing where people are painting the badges on the front of their cars black . The main culprits are Audi, VW, and Seat. I do actually find it very helpful because if I see a black painted badge I can guarantee 100% that they will male and be driving like a twat.

Been enjoying "The Tour de France " this year, every time I watch it it seems unbelievable how they can cover these massive distances on a push bike! as if the length wasn't enough they throw in a bunch of climbs into the mix,then 2 weeks into it they go over the foccin' Pyranees ! Hope Geraint Thomas can do it again this year,as I write this he's currently 2nd at 1min 35s so fingers crossed. :thumbup

Rode the Fazer up Alpe d'Huez a couple of years back. The mental strength needed to grind up that foccer on a pushbike must be amazing, aside from the riders physical attributes. Total respect to all pro cyclists. Chapeau :thumbup :thumbup

Following it too each day on ITV4. Always great views of France.

Kid cops his dad giving his mom one, "get out of it" he laughs and throws the pillow at him.A few days later he the dad comes home early and catches his son giving his nan one,in horror he says "what the hells going on ?" "not so funny when it's your mom is it ?" says the son.

I'm guessing it's not just me who finds this really hot weather horrific?
It's incredibly busy at my work and i spend all day lifting equipment so by the end of it i'm literally wilting in the heat.
Different parts of the building have different temperatures, so if you sit on your arse all day then obviously you get the lovely air conditioning, but if you're lumping gear about all day doing manual stuff then you get to use fans in the hottest areas of the building? Never really quite got the thought procedure behind that one?


Then there's riding in the heat, well that's just not much fun either is it, and neither is trying to sleep at night with a fan on.

And now i'm hearing thunder and rain outside too, so i'm probably gonna get pissed on as well as being boiled underneath my bike gear on the way to work. :groan

[YamFazFan]

It's a complete mystery to me why people seem to enjoy it when it's 100 degrees. I find it unbearable. I hate it. The quicker the heatwave focs off the better :woot

[coffee]

To true and being a baldy I'm forever putting a hat on which in turn makes your head sweat ,it's ok riding along but when you stop it's like sitting in a furnace when the fans kick in.So I'll be typically British and moan when it's raining,snowing,icy and sunny. :wall :lol
