Same as before AT then?
Normal people’s motivation for losing weight: society has warped my image of what a body should look like
My motivation: the bike I can afford is 2 lbs heavier than the bike I want
My G be spendin’ G’s to drop g’s off his next ride
While he be downin’ beers, rockin’ kg’s ‘round his waist line.
I think we’d all feel better if you would translate . . . into Joual.
Basically, as a rough translation, you have:
Teacher - what would you do with €5,200?
Student/kid 1 - buy a mansion or nice home.
Student/kid 2 - give to charity or help people.
Student/kid 3 - get a bike with a 12-speed dura ace group set.
Thanks, I was thinking more along the lines of “Partir sur une balloune.”Now you go!

Kid 3 is going places! On a new bike…
Kid 3 is in for a long wait…
I guess no translation is needed for this one… ![]()
(but in case it is… “Silver again?!”)
Not quite - it was « get a 12-sp Di2 DA group set with power meter », which is even worse (but more realist considering the amount involved).
Yeah, I gave a quick translation and forgot to include the “extras”. Either way, that kid has his priorities figured out
.
A case of “a picture speaks a thousand words”.
Dutch/Flemish is very similar to my second language (Afrikaans), so posted it without even thinking about a translation.
Kid #3 is up for a rude awakening… he will not get a bike with DA for that price!
Not the full bike, the translation is as @rocourteau states: “Buy the latest Dura Ace Di2 groupset with power meter”
Teacher: kess vous feriez avec 7800 piasses?
Kid 1: acheter une belle cabane!
Kid 2: donner aux pôv qui ont pas de cash!
Kid 3: Dura-ace Di2 avec power meter ‘stie!
Good enough? ![]()
Murci but not enough F-bombs
C’est beau le joual!
I’m learning so much here!
recorded in 2009 and note that he has an aluminium frame, which he laments midway through the video. So yeah.
