    Australia Post, I hate you!

    Oh look, they've updated the tracking. Apparently it didn't go back and forth to Sydney, it's just been sitting at Fyshwick since Wednesday last week. But don't worry, the automated phone system tells me that it's still on track to be delivered on time!!

    Whats the best beer you've had & why?

    Dangerous Ales XPA = more like a mild flavoured Pacific Ale. Nothing Xtra about it. Coopers Red = still awesome after all these years.

    Australia Post, I hate you!

    Turns out that I didn't have to worry, I could have just relied on Ausposts' incompetence! Package has gone Bris-Syd-CBR-Syd-CBR. Still hasn't been delivered. Silly me, thinking that it would arrive when they said it would. They really are so ultimately fucking shit.

    You have to show ID that matches the name that the package is being delivered to for that to work. The package isn't being sent to me by name, so I can't even do that.

    Australia Post, I hate you!

    Even with an Auspost account, once a parcel is in transit, you cannot delay delivery date or change the "leave without signature" setting. Sat on the phone for half an hour with a girl who tried everything, even talking to the local sorting centre. Nup, computer says no. Such as simple and...

    Pump tracks in ACT

    Some one is building some new ones out at poo pines, but I wouldn't recommend them to anyone who appreciates their own ongoing existence.

    26" 150-170 fork

    I have some 150mm Fox 32s that you can have for $200. They came stock on the 2013 Trek Remedy (Kashmia gold, baby!) and are a surprisingly good fork. Yes, you can feel a little bit of flex, but they do a pretty amazing job for a lighter fork.

    Now, I may not be a religious man, but I do believe that this here bike is God's fucking gift to dirt.

    The election thread - Two middle-late aged white men trying to be blokey and convincing..., same old shit, FFS.

    You mean the Howard who is only the second PM in history to lose both the election and his seat because the public was so sick of him?

    Little Things You Hate

    Yep, that's what I'm doing as of next week. My concern was driving at night, but I have almost finished the light board and will have the printed copy of my 4+ weeks old order in the car whilst I drive with a cardboard dodgy. If I hadn't already recently written to my local members about the...

    Online retailers trusted/scammers

    Yep, so that's precisely what happened: "Terribly sorry, I'll get the guys in the warehouse to send it". In their defence, they sent it express and I had it within 48hrs. No idea how long it would have taken if I hadn't upped them for it, though.

    Online retailers trusted/scammers

    Anyone had issues with BikeBug before? Paid for a stem that was listed as in stock a week ago and the order still hasn't been processed yet.

    The QUICK question thread.....

    Seems it's freaking my computer out. I let it sit for a while after hitting save - like 5 mins - and the explorer window was finally there. But it's having trouble saving it. > reboot and try again....
