Old C+ Ben from Warwick

[Dave5N]

I Paid a visit to BR last night. Rubbish there, it is.


(Dunno why I went all Welsh there for a minute, is it?)

Where did Mr Phoebus go? He WAS here til September. I liked his avatar.

I wondered about him too (aka "Didge" and "Charlie"). Is he still around on one of the others? The fact that I had a serious spat with him once, still bothers me.

My favourite thread on C+ was that "commuter pirate racing" one.

I even think I seen the pirate at a time trial last season. Unless there's more than one of 'em.

Extremely odd but very funny.

What exactly happened here, Fatters went 'ego-strop' and faffed off then quite a few followed...Nut, Pikes & the likes where are these now...the whole thing: unbelievable !

What a hash.

I know there are a massive amount of cyclists online - when you think of it its quite similiar to the Brit.Cyc.Scene.... = FRAGMENTED !

Truly regretable !

i thought about ol' ben from warwick the other day...or rather more vaguely i thought 'who was that really funny bloke from the posh part of the midlands who used to post on C+?'

ho hum

The posh part of the Midlands! Having lived and cycled there for the first 42 years of my life (before moving to the West Country), I can tell you South Warwickshire has it's fair share of chavs, particularly in beat up old Novas etc. 2 of my most impressive clashes with cars were in the beautiful County town of Warwick.

Oh, hang on a second, weren't you always trying to "escape from the East Mids".... yes, I suppose in that case Warks would seem posh

Three letters, starts with A.....

Warwick is posh! Well, the town itself is. Leamington on the other hand can be dead rough at times.

Getting into that place is like trying to walk into a crack...

 

[Crackle]

Is this the old codgers and pipe smokers thread then?

Not familiar with Inner-city Birmingham I take it?

Yeah, sigh, Yeah, [looks into ether stare smiley]

 

[Andy in Sig]

There's also Ravenbait's League of Gentlemen Cyclists site which is very good humoured. That started as a part of the C+ site. I wonder if it would make sense for it to merge with this one as I suspect both would be enriched.

 

[Jaded]

Hmmm...

Interesting idea - let's merge all the forums together! We could make an uber-forum, a forum to beat all others.

...oh, hang on...
