To be honest, your average multi over the years has never been far from a bus on rails.Originally posted by zeitghostYup.
The horrendous squealing of wheel flanges as it navigates bends in the track is an excellent illustration of why buses should stay on roads, and railway carriages are greatly improved by using bogies.
I used to regularly get on one from Oldield Ark to Keynsham & it had cigarette stubbers on the back of the seats.
It also used to change gear! I've never been on anything else on the rails with an audible gear change.

That's quite some fetish lass !Originally posted by SueEllen View PostYou should be fine for up to an hour.
Even if you sweat a lot fresh sweat isn't offensive smelling until it starts drying as long as your gear was clean to start of with.
If you are cleanish e.g. had shower in the last 24 hours it decreases the smell as well.
I only realised many people didn't wash their clothes because as a student I couldn't work out why my housemates didn't stink after doing heavy exercise but some other people did in the gym when they started exercising.
Lot of it depends on what one ate last night for tea

I could not conceive of doing some hard exercise and then going anywhere in public without showering
it is barbaric and antisocial..
but I do find the lycra clad crowd are so holier than thou as they are exercising you see so they should not have to worry about that]

Fresh sweat doesn't reek.
Unfortunately loads of people don't wash their kit between training sessions.....

Isn't that the Pacer?Originally posted by zeitghostIndeed not, it's all cattle class.
Normally one is grateful it's not a Class 14X.
Though the Class 150 is a close rival.
Took a ride in one of those from Gloucester to Maesteg a few weeks ago.
Progress eh? Bring back metro cammell.
