What the hell are cycle shoes?
Do they have wheels on?
And sturmy archer brakes?

thats funny because as I kid I was called sturmey, because....and you must not let this go ANY further, my surname is archer.
or three speed, i.e slow dead slow and stop (they were cruel, but I was never actually bullied)
later as we became aware of certain hormones...Spurmey
but I'm relaxed about all that NOW.

Cycling shoes my dear smorgs go with the cycling shorts and cycling trousers and cycling jacket and 4 pairs of cycling socks and cycling shirt with wick moisture dispersion which I bought from Lidls today for the sum total....and you wont believe this
of £37
Actually Lidls wont believe it either because they undercharged me on the jacket
That post is very interesting to me for the following reasons:
1. Mmmm - cycling shorts, you have to have confidence (and a spare sock) to wear those...
2. Sturmey Archer - I remember that name from MY bike (when I was kinder). I wasn't even sure if they were still going (are they?), or that anyone would know what I was talking about.
3. Moisture wick thingy - is that why cyclists have funny sweat patterns, when viewed from behind?
4. Archer - Ahhh, the last peice in the jigsaw! I now have enough information for my next stalking adventure. So, next time your out riding, if you see a pink-chubby running behind you (with a fag), shouting things in a Northern accent - it's me!
5. I love it when you get undercharged, or freebies in a shop. Gives me a frisson of pleasure, like when I used to be a shoplifter.
6. I was only joking about the shoplifting thing - I'm a paragon of virtue - y'all know THAT.
I'm now off to the dentist.
