I dare......

[Demonclimber]

I dare a bike manufacturer to produce a bike totally fitted out with the new Shimano Claris groupset and call it the Hannibal; or the Lecter; and to have a teeny tiny decal of a tiny little lamb somewhere on the frame.

Starling would also work.

Starling would also work.

Certainly would; the all new Giant Starling

Would you have to take Fava beans and a nice bottle Chianti as sustenance with you when you went out for a ride?

 

[Eribiste]

....and whisper "Fly little Starling, fly,fly,fly" as you ride along ?

This could become a very sinister (or silly) thread!

Am I the only one who has no idea what this thread is about ?

here's a clue "I had an old friend for tea Phhh phhhh phhhh"

I got that clue but nope - unless the talentless one in the film was called that?

Not a film I ever felt the need to watch more than once

I dare a Japanese manufacturer to produce and market some hugely expensive super-lightweight deep-rim wheels covered with garish Japanese characters.

On closer examination these would translate as "I equate pounds spent with skill" and "I'll buy any old crap as long as it costs a lot and I think it looks cool".

On the wheels I buy, they should write something that translates as "I am a bitter, envious little bastard with matching chips on each shoulder".

OT, but on my mind: All cheese tastes like value cheddar when you eat it straight from the fridge.

You could ride the new Starling wearing one of these.
