At least that's what he told you.My dad had a large clump of Pampas Grass in his garden that the centre had gone a bit rotten. When he was cutting it back to replant the good bits, a mosquito snuck up his trouser leg and bit him on the scrotum.
Just thought I'd share that with ya'll

My opinion of the posters here is being rapidly revised.

Try not to snort it down your nose.

Is it OK for this sort of bike?
If so might drag the wife over there in June.

The image isn't showing, but..
the trails are fine for MTB, full-sus and hardtail, and would be fun on a CX I reckon!
EDIT: Image showing now. Probably not, but there are other trails around that Mrs mybike might be able to ride

So when does everyone else cut off last year's stems from their pampas grass?
I've always done it at the beginning of March so I don't cut any of the new shoots. I got that from an old gardening book we found in the old shed when we moved in.
Also, it's cold enough to need long sleeves and coat done up to my chin. Good protection from the sharp leaves.

Yeh, I've tried editing a couple of times, pasted it in in the end. She does ride it along our canal towpath which is a bit rough.
Situation normal then.I've had a couple of beers, I'm sitting in the pub smirking, and I'm trying very hard not to snigger
For the record, insect bites on the scrotum are no laughing matter.

Maybe this is why you see farmers and yokels with their trouser legs tied up with string!
I was working on a farm in Suffolk as a teenager when it happened to me. We were hay bailing, so had evicted millions of unhappy creepy crawlies and flying things from their homes.
