Yo Cosmo, given that the speed of light is 186,000 miles /sec or about 7million mph
and sound travels at 1100 ft/sec, no.

I cycled the Monsal trail today, but didn't see any porpoises.

I did meet a jogger who refused to get out of my way,
jumped off onto a grass verge and fell down an embankment, was that you?

Yo Cosmo,
yep agreed, chose my lane and the beggar wouldn't move.
Thinks; "well this'll be interesting, the guys either short sighted, in a paralell universe or just ignorant".
I think he said some kind words before rolling down the embankment.
According to my book the "Edwardian Gentlemans guide to Cycling",
my man with a red flag should have directed him out of the way
and then horse whipped him ,with a handy horse.

I haven't drobed for years, my nuts might want their tentions setting.

Eeeeh Cosmo, tha' world of letter writing awaits thee.
Every complainant should be well happy.
Disssafissfation guarenteed.

i did point out to one disgruntled walker that it is a bridleway and not a foot path and they should treat it as such and not block the path, then grumble when a bike rider pings there bell. I don't i just shout agagagagagagr coming through and thump my manly chest.

peds should be passed as close and at as high a velocity as possible, as most of them drive cars like that give them a taste of the other foot, show them we are not to be trifled with, in-fact nail some sense in to them and continue the ritual flogging until they understand that we,,, the chosen ones, sun bronzed athletic god like recumbernauts rule the universe. (parse for applause and adoration) come the revolution names will be named and hamsters chargrilled (with a bit of garlic (as this is good for the blood,,well not the hamsters blood of course) in this time of strife and wonton hamster slaying things pray heavily on people's minds but they can be reassured that as I will continue to do there thinking for them freeing them to sit in-front of there 97" tv screens eating pizza five times a day.

i seem to have found the maximum advantage from "it" i have a friend at a university engineering department i will let them see if they can fine tune "the device"
i should get the hadcycle back for the weekend just a gear cable to fit and then ready to roll :biggrin: cos i am now a cripple like can i now enter in the marathon handcycle race? just for the laugh as my handcycle would not be competitive with the super airo high-tec ones i have seen on tv.

Eyyuup Cosmo, hows about a fixed wheel hand cycle?
I'd pay good money to watch tha' descend.

like them penny farthing riders on utube, that could not keep up with the wheel :wacko:
just been looking at taking the back wheel out of a front wheel drive lowracer crossing the chain and attaching it to the back for my lad a, back to back, hand cranke tandem with four wheels. just a bit of a problem with the coupling, a old head stock cut from a old bike and a dummy axle, now how do i know with a welder??? mmm bit of paper pen.......
