Dale, wearing smart clothes doesn't make you a genius. In fact, if people weren't so distracted by your sartorial elegance, maybe they'd notice your scintillating intellect more readily...?

i believe dale is a doctor. like other famous doctors, he has a certain tweediness to his garb, a la harold shipman.

Oh right. Sorry. Dale is a doctor -> aka GP.

Archer GP (Grand Prix) is famous road race in UK premiere calendar -> or is it a road race for general practitioners -> is Dale going to ride it then?

It wasn't meant to be funny. I was just mechanically writing down one of the trains of thought that was rumbling across my cortex at that moment.

Just leave me alone, you cunts.

Dale ain't no Doctor! he might be a Dictor..

but would you let him do a cough and drop test on you?

no, well there you go.

having an O-level in "mixing some stuff in a test tube so it goes a funny colour" doesn't a GP make

no, the forum is going down hill because we aren't making newbies feel welcome..... too many idiotic posts, to many people thinking they are the font of all knowledge about fixed gear, too many derogatory comments about people their bikes and their querys.
As my parents told me as a kid " if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all "

maybe we could set up a sticky for people to wave their willes at one another, any stupid posts idiotic arguments can be bumped to a seperate thread so we don't have to read the crap that a lot of people come out with.

There's far too much saltiness around at the moment - whether it's the 'you don't know me' shit that went down in the 'names and faces...' thread a couple of weeks ago, to the nonsensical 'Going to a Mosque...' hijack that seems to still be ongoing (come on guys - what exactly is it you're trying to achieve?).

In the end I appreciate that some of you are meeting more and more 'in the real world' and so don't have as much need for the 'let's talk about bikes and riding' side of things, but still... Lots of post/rep whoring going on as well. Maybe it's an inside joke but still...

Oh - and I do stand by what I said recently about the growing number of crap threads. Granted as the forum grows there are going to be different 'types' of people with different interests, and so their views and interests are going to spread across the forum, but still, there are some really crap threads out there.

Oh bollocks - did I really just write a serious post about an internet forum on an internet forum? Someone please neg me...
