Not worried about your weight more worried you will have ill fitting trousers again, its not a good look old people going around a bowl with their bums out

my leg garments are loose but not baggy... I usually ride in shorts anyway... I might switch to Speedos if its causing distress :angel:
Young Pickle was showing the most 'hairy anal cleavage' as I recall... but thats been covered in the Creation thread already :)

I think that's what bubs was on about.....with regards your axles, if you fook it all up then just get new ones. If you fook up the drop outs then that's the frame fooked
Munnyella:
You are never gonna break 10mm axles anyway, same as I never will, unless you do that cherry picker drop in you were banging on about!
Grinder on the axles, I did it on my French holiday rider `goose. just make sure you do both sides parallel, and level!! and watch your Hampton!!!
Take the axle out from the hub, after marking the cone lock nut position, you only want to grind between under that and under a bit of your axle nuts, that way you wont see the shit job that will enevatably occur. Mine looked awful, but worked and you cant see it anyway, and watch you c o c k (again!)

oh yeah - didn't read that Bubbs was quoting you... I thought I was strange as I'm quite reserved with my trousers in recent years :)
He is right though... especially as Garys kids will be there... something like that could scar a young mind for life :shocked:

not break ... but I'm bending the fookers and it looks bad... like riding a bent layback.
c o c k drilling is no fun... took me a while to recover from that near miss... there was blood :(
