"Come on fattie old chap...pedal harder!"

I don't think we are weight obsessed here - I suspect GC has cut and pasted from his blog without stopping to think about whether he's talking about the right forum. As a relative newbie, I wonder how he knows the feel of the forum so well?

I think if he keeps just regurgitating his blog, he'll find people get fed up.

Bicycle weight seems to be something of an obsession on this forum

only if you talk about making your bike better .then you will get the great wheel debate going again and again . as a new rider to racing bikes i find these chats very useful . thanks to you all for some great advice .

Now that I've found the blog in question, I'm proved right....

I am a little obsessed about my weight but not on this forum. I find the comments on the forum helful and balanced. I don't see many topics focused around bike weight

The OP is the heaviest thing around here. Lighten up GC...too many real people on here to fool with. And no-one gives a toss about weight ultimately - except me. I am your typical 'racing snake' - a python that has swallowed a baby elephant!

That was my assumption too. He's not being very subtle, is he?

Good detective work, Archy. Now, let's get Admin to block his IP address.

Pillock.

I hope he doesn't, I think he's quite funny.

He's spamming this and other forums with articles off his blog. See:

Anyone taking umbrage to this spammer/troll would be well advised to report his posts to admin.

Don't worry, we've had a chat and he's been made aware of how it works on CC ...

Cheers,

pfft he's produced a funny discussion or two, who cares if it's from his blog? If it was contributing nothing but a link, then it would be another matter.

I've simply asked him to add his blog link to his signature, and not cut 'n' paste articles from his blog into the forums. If people want to read them they can follow the link.

I don't think that's unreasonable.

Cheers,
Shaun
