Me refiero a que, como eres joven, si te lo tomas enserio a lo mejor puedes empezar a competir, si es que no lo estás haciendo ya, y ganar carreras.

Si tronko, pero tampoco hace falta que te chulées. Qué estoy de broma hombre! La verdad es que me he quedado con la boca abierta. Esto te lo digo en español para que no se entere nadie, pero creo que tú eres mejor que yo.

Ya veo, pero entonces no entiendo por qué me dijiste que le pusiera menos recorrido a la mía. Yo ya sé que no se necesita tanto para hace dirt, pero tú no te quedas corto tampoco tronko. Mi bici es más como para freeride y se supone que el cuadro acepta hasta 170mm (for a double crown fork, no sé como se dice en español). Cambiando de tema, con lo joven que eres puedes tener una buena carrera por delante troko así que tomatelo en serio.

La verdad es que podrás estar orgulloso tronko: la bici mola que te cagas. ¿La bici de detrás es también tuya? Yo tengo una parecida.

The red has been put in with purpose, but the thing I like best about this bike is how it rides. On KHE tyres the setup is definitely less than 30 pounds on the scale, and it feels incredibly strong and robust. The bike is only one month old or so, but I was very surprised at first about how comfortable I was with the frame as I pulled it straight out of the box. I am particularly surprised about how easy it is to dip your wrists in and bring those bars into your groin area for more momentum when bunny-hopping. The manual point is very sweet too and you can really feel that rolling force under your bottom as you deliberately pull your legs out to ride it out. I miss my full susser though, but I also want to spend some valuable and undisturbed time with this bike on the other hand as I am really looking forward to getting myself dialled with it.

I mean to ride this bike in skate parks as well, so a 20mm front axel would be a little bit too much for it would it not? I've got a Talas I am not currently using, and a spare wheel for it, but I don't think I really want that much to over do it this time. I know this particular frame would take it, but I honestly think I am not going to need it.

For me it is rather the damage being caused to the body, and not so more done to the environment (not that this isn't important). About off-road mountain biking being banned in the UK, I think we coming to it. In my local spot, they've put walls and other obstacles to prevent downhill riders from damaging the surroundings (this is what they say), but it is true it is impossible to fight against Mother Nature. Have you guys seen that documentary about all humans dying and all plants taking over from us? They say it would take like 5 years or something for plants to conquer the world, so I don't know what it is they're going on about, really.

I think this thread is so good just because we are going on about what we really want and what we like best doing, which is riding a bike. If you want to unsubscribe though, best thing to do is you don't click back on it and forget completely all about it.

Best time I had in my life was when I was living in Morocco (for six years). They're just so rich you wouldn't believe it. Food is gorgeous and people are very friendly and talkative. I used to wake up late in the morning, then head for the Spanish school where I was teaching (A levels), and after everything was done, go down to a local café I was familiar with to sing a couple of songs with some friends and be naughty. I used to live by the sea, and I still remember those brawny old fishermen (no spring chickens they were, most of them well past their 60s) doing their nets ashore and making fun of us foreign youngsters because of our chronic tiredness. One day I came up and asked one of them whether they would never get tired doing what they were doing, but only for one of them to stand up and reply: "what are you saying, I am only 75, that is, a man in his prime: you come a little bit closer son and I'll wipe your nose". For me it is not like I've given up on cars as if I had made a decision on it, but rather, that I've found myself doing what I am doing and wondering how I came into it. When I came over to the UK, five years ago, it was a little bit like I was all broke and I needed something to get me around town, so I bought myself a bike. Then I got fit, then I did improve, and then better and better; and then it was like I was riding my bike all over the whole mountain and breaking them too. All food I eat is spot on and my body hurts because of how active I am, but this is a good pain (I reckon) and I feel pretty comfortable with it. Not that I've got pots of money now, but I am very well to do, so to speak, and I could pretty much afford a car for myself. But what for? I am sorry I have to say this: but I don't want to give up on feeling good with myself (nor on all the women there is, speaking of which, do love me so). This comfort I shall never give up on. I swear it.

BTW, what's with my age? I am only kidding, but it is true I am only a bit older than Steve Peat; and everybody knows he is no mean feat either.

I love dogs I do. Your mom looks a bit worried, but there is something somewhat kind in her face (kind of a Giaconda’s expression difficult to explain) as she is holding it.

So what does a philosopher do for money? We usually teach at universities and schools. Am I an arrogant? I might as well be, but only when I come up against opposition or unfairness. I honestly believe I have a good heart. Proof of this can be found in this thread when I do apologize for using inappropriate language to get a point across.

Hey Timlake: do you know about the meaning "democracy" and "freedom of speech"? Are you a Taliban or something? Moreover, what's all the offensive language for?

Of course I do care about the environment, but this is not where I am coming from. The only two things I do care in this life are "pleasure" and "comfort". Many people think comfort has plenty to do with having pots of money, but "comfort" could mean a "good performing body" as well. If you feel ok with your body and no pain is causing grieve, then you are a happy person with no regards to how much money you might have in the bank. This is not to say money is not important, as you will probably need some to pay for tuition fees, food and the like, but just that there are other ways. Some times people get mad at me when I say these things. I remember one lady who said to me in one occasion she would give up on happiness as a whole if "being happy" meant she had to go through what I wanted her to; but the point is, if you are happy, what do you care?

That is right, a variable is a variable with no regards to what its representation might turn out to be, but the difference in between X and B is still like I am saying. BTW, do you guys mean like we can't make friends instead? I can see you guys have a bee in your bonnet about it.

This is really funny this is. It is not numbers and values and crap what I am going on about am I? Do you guys not think there might be a chance, however small, you are missing on a critical point here? So what is it I am saying and why is it you don't like it?

Sorry guys, but you can't be for real can you? I am a professional philosopher (by this I mean I've got a degree and all): you simply don't stand a cat in a hell's chance of proving me wrong. The difference in between a mathematical unknown and a variable is whether you actually know its value or not. Mathematical unknowns do usually appear on axioms whereas variables do rather belong in the calculus or reckoning of numbers itself. "B" cannot be an unknown just because we know what its value is. In this case it stands for "Barcelona". So going from A to B, means going from Aberdeen to Barcelona, which is kind of a nice trip isn't it? Did you guys know that Barcelona is probably one of the coolest of Europe’s slums to ride your bike in? The reason we say it is either "A" or "B" when we work their values out is to shorten it up a bit so that it won't take as much space as you put them down on a piece of paper. You guys think you still want to come in for more? I am only asking out of curiosity: I am amused now.
