I'd be suprised if that thing hit 20km/h.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

No it'll do 90km/h, above that the front end starts to wobble. It's not designed for high speed anyways, it's a Russian military bike. It's designed for Recce and message running. Two wheel drive as well!

Strange camo paint. Looks like someone ate a box of crayons and threw up on it.

I guess Liverpool going after David Villa from Valencia in Spain is a big deal? Or is there literally nothing else going on with football post Euro and they're blowing up the story?
Uh...what's he saying?

He's talking about football. An incredibly boring, yet inexplicably popular, sport.

I love that Simpsons episode where soccer comes to Springfield.

The Mexican presenter calls the game:

"Center passes to wing"

"Wing passes to center"

"Center passes to wing!"

"Wing passes to center!"

"CENTER PASSES TO WING!!!"

"WING PASSES TO CENTER!!!"

I don't like football, but it's better than the American version...

Union is nearly as bad as American Football for stoppages. League is a proper sport.

At least we know that my avatar won't change every week. :)
