  1. I shall do when im on my other comp conection is to roobish on this one to use msn really. also you live real near, you should come to some oxford rides or somthing...
  2. hmmmmmmm sounds rather interesting
  3. Indeed, Im not sure I mean I only really thought of it today, I also like working practically so guess it might well be a good job. Is it the sort of thing I could become an aprentice doing? I would imagine it is but yea...
  4. Right, expect a few of these in the future Currently I am in 6th form, but to be honest I hate it really really hate it. Its not that im not clever enough I walked through my GCSEs with no revision (yes I no im an idiot) but thats my problem really, these academic subjects have lost all appeal to me, as do the heavily home based courses, simply because I have absomlutly no motivation to work, there are massive amounts of distraction at home all of which I wend up doing rather than work. Now im sure your all thinking that im just an idiot with no self dicaplin, maybe thats true, but to be honest I have never been the revising type or anything so im not sure if its just the sort of person I am. The subject HAS to interest me fairly substantially for me to be motivated to work. Im sure there will be other subjects that catch my eye but the first one I noticed at my local college was a landscape gardening course. Now I have ABSOLUTLY no idea what landscape garening entales however i did have a breif look through a book my dad has about it, its all very simplistic but it did interest me fairly well and I actually looked through most of it. Now its quite probable your now sitting at your computer thinking "haha what an old man, gardening at 16" but meh.. Really Im wanderomg if anyone here has an experience with such a course or knows anything about it and what it entails, as to be honest round here most people in the college are chavs doing courses in motor vehichle engineering which required minimal grades to get in. So its a tad difficult to ask around. Obviously the cleverest thing to do is go get a prospectus and have a browse through that but I was looking for some possible first hand experiences? So anyone? thanks for reading P.S as I said I very much doubt this is the only course I will ask about so feel free to tell me about any other courses youve done, although Im really not into the whole maths, english, office work thing. The closest thing to I.T and that side of things that interests me is design (C.A.D and all that) P.P.S please excuse my apauling spelling i cant find the spell checker Might be to do with the fact im using firefox on my laptop rather than my usual bt browser on my desktop...
  5. That video was prettty good The flatlandy stuff was pretty cool and i liked that 180 down the stairs I dont think youl have any problems getting to grips with two wheels, you obviously already have a very good sense of balance and im sure the technique should be easily adaptable from unicycle to a proper bike

    All Things 24"!

    Thats the single speed cassette hub, I think its more aided towards the street/ DJ scene. Not 100% I may be wrong just dont know how the engagment will be or how they would stand up to the abuse from trials.
  7. looking good You should put some 888 on there though IMO You a DH guy or a hucker?
  8. anyone? rothwell, derf, danny?
  9. my bb7s always been wierd and kinda spongey aswell, i dunno it locks and stuff but feels almost like a maggy with air int system. :/
  10. Read my sig But yea Im by no means ballsy but it does just come, I mean by no means am i dropping off anything high but I now go off stuff without even thinking that a while ago i woulda had to have a couple of goes at dropping off. But I mean it will always be scary going off somthing bigger chances are if you are finding it really hard to bring yourself to do somthing your not ready for it. Go do somthing a little smaller and build up to it. But getting over that initial fear and doing it is what fuels the adrenaline which is one of the greatest things about riding the natural high you get. However in my opinion drops get to a point then become silly, as they just become dangerous.
  11. Il be having me some of them I think you should make the front rim double walled, that way if people do want a thinner rim they would have the option of running one on the rear as it would have the strength If 24 are made and the fronts were double walled I would run 2 front rims. I dunno if its just me that feels this way, and im sure there are weight weenies that will want a single walled front rim. Just a suggestion
  12. Is the front rim going to be double walled?
  13. A week on sunday anyone? so sunday the 13th?
  14. That was awsome, that manual line at the end was nang! and the spinny stuff at at start
  15. yea I know he should make 24s.
  16. That right there is a beast looks prettty damn sexy I recon you should spray that rim black and go for a full on black stealth look.
  17. Iv managed to end up with that aswell its wank, then when I do wake up my mouth is all dry and rough from breathing through my mouth, Its pretty shit.. Kris Im so sorry to hear that man, my grandad is going aswell he has altzheimers, and I find it so hard to go and see him now as he doesnt know who anyone is and forgets what youv told him before you finish the sentence. Its so shit what life throws at you somtimes. I dont really no what to say about the not going to see him thing, maybe you are right and its better to remember him as he was on boxing day as Im sure it would be upsetting to see him now, I dont no though dude its a difficult desicion to make

    I Am Legend

    I think It woulda be really hard to pull it off convincingly with real people might looked like somthing from the 60s/70s. Im quite a fan of the CGI thing though. After thinking about it, will did want to die, like previously mentioned he had lost everything from his life. Also earlier on before the girl and child saved him he tried to kll himself efectivly anyway when he drove and found the nightwalkers and just drove into them.
  19. going with option two, hopefully wont need a new bike for a long while....
  20. Sure the bead wasnt broken when you took it off the other rim? also have you tried making sure the wheel is suspended off the ground when you inflate it? Otherwise the pressuse as it pushed on the floor tends to push the bead up into the rim meaning on the oposite side its pushed upwards also and can flop off the rim.

    Yea, but I doubt the dogs have the same intellegence....
  22. where'd you aquire the song from i canny find it

    I Am Legend

    Not a bad point actually : I guess that they are of low intelegence so dont really realise it? Also there would be gaps between buildings etc. would be hard for them to stick to that, especially the way they move.
