Cobble Wobble 2010

'Held in September/October each year, the Cobble Wobble is an individually timed bicycle hill climb sprint up Catherine Hill, in Frome, Somerset, right in the middle of the town centre. With the narrowness of the street and the backdrop of the 17th century buildings, the tight course and the huge cheering crowd, the Frome Cobble Wobble is pretty unique.'

helmets..

'I'm sure someone has done a survey/investigation to show that not wearing a helmet is better than incorrectly wearing one. Whatever the results of the survey, it's still illegal to not wear one in Australia, and to the British Trackies, it's also $259 for running a red light.

Welcome to Australia.' via fyxomatosis...

GIVE THANKS TO THOSE WHO CAME BEFORE US AND GAVE UP MUCH


'This Thanksgiving holiday, give thanks for all the blessings bestowed upon us one and all. And please also take time for a special remembrance of the true Americans. The Native Americans who were massacred in this very country, this sacred soil, that we call the home of the brave, and land of the free. Ironic, because there’s not a better description of these very people that we conquered, caged, and crippled. Labeled as Godless, savage, animals by a group that was oddly enough fleeing their own persecution, oppression, and judgement. These beautiful people, here before us, whose land was brutally stolen. Their beliefs, culture, and art were almost completely erased, not for a lack of trying, but by the grace of God. And in the name of, what? A shameful chapter in American history, any way you look at it. Judge Not, Lest Ye Be Judged. Now go and enjoy your turkey.'
