gympie to sydney. thats a quite a ride.

[Mr Eps]

nah mate

i did it last week

piece of cake

[JAS-25T]

Come ride over here and do this with me then

*points to sig*

[Mr Eps]

HOLY COW

i have seen that in your sig a thousand times and only ever chuckled at it cos it says "GONG" in it and "GONG" is a funny word

hmm...

honestly this looks really cool

i would give it a red hot go except i'm in perth

that's like

the equivalent of perth to bunbury though

that'd be rad if it were safe n stuff like - not gonna get hit by cars / kangaroos / drop bears etc

[mad082]

if i had the money i'd come and ride it with you.

[JAS-25T]

perth to sydney is a peice of cake............

did it last week.

weak sauce.

[FATAZZ]

i rode from my house(pretty much wsid) all the way to castle hill bike track. Via parklea markets.

now thats a ride. BMX aswell 1 gear all the way.

that would be my longest ride.

[JAS-25T]

if i had the money i'd come and ride it with you.

What if I get someone to sponsor you the flight?

[mad082]

if you pic me up from the airport and give me somewhere to stay then i will

[Mr Eps]

i think someone wants to put his money where his mouth is

shit marc if you are keen i'll even kick in for your flight

imagine that

a sign in your shop saying you did sydney to gong

would be sick

[mad082]

which distance are you doing jase? the 56km or the 90km?

[mad082]

never mind, i just looked in you link

[JAS-25T]

I can give you somewhere to stay and pick you up - but then im chasing someone to pay for your flight.

yeah 90km

[JAS-25T]

http://www.bikely.com/

good site which helps you find rides around your area.

BTW - above I meant not chasing.

[mad082]

typical, LOL

[Mr Eps]

so anyway

the tyres on my giant rincon are a bit rough as guts - too wide and too "nobbly"

which is really annoying considering i ride on pavement only at the moment

they just fight me the entire way while i ride

WURRuuuUURRrruuuURRRRuuuRRRR they say

so yeah

getting some decent skinny low profile road slicks today

throw some deez on that bitch

[mad082]

what sort of tyres you getting? i run 26 x 1.5 michelin which go for about $45 upwards, otherwise the ones i sold jase, and which cherie uses as well, are tioga city slickers in a 26 x 1.0. they are the same width as a road bike tyre and they are about $30 each. both of those tyres require new tubes which are about $6 each.

NOTE: these prices are RRP and not the price i do for SAU members

[JAS-25T]

I get better prices again because I take Cherie off his hands once a week...................if you know what I'm sayin

[JAS-25T]

f**k me - Armstrong is having another dig!
