Ok, never having seen that site before I had no idea. Also not been "in here" much, only having decided to "formally" embrace XC with my club this winter.
That sounds brilliant, Curly.

No worries Frobster - the whole site is a bit of an in joke - the forums are weird and scary at the same time!

Last year was my first season and I loved it so hopefully you will too :)

Ah, cheers for the heads up. Sometimes takes a while to whittle one's way through any in-joke's outer shield!

I hope so too - xc was my first love (and it will be my last? Sorry for the earworm!) so this is a bit of a return to all that. My secondary school backed out onto Dartmoor so I was up on the tors most lunchtimes doing out and backs up the hills. Add a whole load of team-mates and tea and baps afterwards, what's not to love!

Tea and baps? (*) (*)

What could be better?

I wouldn't go near the forums at EightLane without half a bottle of vodka inside me. It's like 4Chan for affletes.

Er, and 4Chan is? (Another in-joke I assume).

I reckon half a bottle of vodka and I'd do most things.

Except possibly run in a straight line.

(4chan is a bulletin board, Frob)

4Chan is where courtesy is just a word beginning with C.

Ok, thanks for the enlightenment. I wish I could say my life was enriched now, but I'm not sure I can.

It's richer than it would be should you ever venture into 4Chan.
