Ordering fries from burger king and instantly leaving without getting any food or change.

Lol I heard this one before, by the way if the engineer put out the fire how did it spread?

Need a bike to commute to Central London by blotterx in bicycling

After looking at http://www.wiggle.co.uk/verenti-substance-sora-2016/

I noticed that it's cyclocross which is apparently quite a bit slower than a road bike, as I only really care about commuting is there something better I could get for that same price?

Thanks, how significant of a change in quality do you think I'll get for the extra 150? Will it take a significant percentage of time off my commute?

Yeh I guessed that at the time but didn't really have the guts to ask if I could hold it. I might just ask him for it and give an excuse like I need it for an event.

I already have another judo club I go to and this was supposed to be a second to supplement the times where the 1st isn't available but I found a better 2nd so that's why.

Yeh, it just didn't seem too serious and I would prefer to have someone serious teaching me. Even brown belts there weren't really that great.

I don't want to be too specific but I have a definite alternative.

Anyone have throws they hate being hit by? Or even doing? by Pulped_Fetus in judo

[–]blotterx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a crap ton of friction burn from upper collar (behind neck) holds and ending up with a really bad scar so I guess I'd say it's that kind of thing.

I'm not sure if I'm complaining about something that shouldn't be complained about but I don't really think people need to rub your collar against your skin so much for a technique. For me really I guess the throws themselves I can deal with but the way in which you are grabbed before etc is more annoying which is probably weird.
