Well Fellow Bulls,
My Xmas BReak has been surprisingly quiet this year, which is a big relief I can tell ya :laugh:
How are the rest of you fairing ? Plenty of good cheer & wet beers I hopeIt pretty quiet around here, so I expect most of you are either Flat Out or Kickin` Back Relaxin`
Either way, enjoy it while ya can :woohoo:
December 29, 2009 at 5:34 am #166449my exmas brake has been fairly quiet but okay
no riding but everyones to busy with christmas or away or broken :unsure: its a pity after all this rain
ah well think i might just have a stubby instead
December 29, 2009 at 5:40 am #166450Good to see ya gettin a chance kick back Eagle.
I was ment to work right through christmas including chrissy and now years eve with only my normal days off.
I had planned to get in a few mountain bike rides on my days off so last Wednesday I set about giving the bike a good service including bleeding the brakes.
Took the bike out the front of home on the road for a bit of a test ride and was doing some wheelies and stoppies testing the brakes. I found out real fast the front brake was working just fine as I went flying over the handle bars onto the road.
As a result I have fractured the radius on my right arm up near the elbow and i’m now off work till the 18th January.
Bottoms up it’s beer time.
December 29, 2009 at 5:40 am #166459Pretty quiet down here as well. To many beers and heaps of food to get over. Went for a ride this morning woth my son and his mate so that filled in half a day.
