How not to fall off the bike on icy roads. Not relevant to Australia
Btw, you have Halfords in Australia?

No, thank goodness. We do have crappy bike shaped objects sold in department and sports stores, though, and do our best to avoid them.

Cliques are to be dispised and ridiculed. Except of course, the one you're in.

That carbon fiber is a newly emerging material, features light-weigh, heat-resistant and anti—corrosion comparing with traditional alloy.

Beat me to it. I'm gonna get me some carbon fibRE pans...

Internet forums are full of people desperate to prove their "right-on" credentials so you must never mention race, sex or social class if you want to avoid being accused of racism, sexism or elitism.

Despite some members thinking it is ok to belittle and call others names it is still a better forum then the one I left to be here.
