  1. As of 27th April I'm up in Guildford 5 days a week, if you want - to save you postage I can collect them for you. You're local to Portsmouth right?
  2. Good god, I've not seen you online in ages! The bike looks good man!
  3. I'd edit that fast if I were you, .
  4. Usually rides start around 11am. It's up to everyone what time it starts, but yeah I would perfer 11 (misses the busy trains).
  5. I'm sure I'd be able to arrange you crashing at mine if you want? Edit: I . WILL . have sidehops down more before this!
  6. I know who that is, have spoken to him a few times out around time - think he works at Halfords. Don't think he's on the forum, and I don't know his name.
  7. You're not fed up of your frame are you? It's lovely!
  8. Oh well. Sell the frames to this Jew - he'll happily take them for a drink ( )..
  9. If the man does have money to spend on a new frame once in a while, why not? I wish I had enough money aside to do so, but I don't, so I can't. I'm not going to take the piss though, just because he's got more spare cash - I don't care if mum or dad etc pay for it, or not him.
  10. Put a sub in your car, listen to some decent music (not chavvy garage crap - but some well EQ'd chart stuff) and that sub will sound a lot better than a standard system. Also, do you have a car? A decent one that doesn't break down and gets from a-b nicely? If you don't, GTFO.
  11. Firstly - WTF at the abuse? So what if it's got a sub!? Secondly - Tris I'm assuming you're posting this on behalf of someone else? Either way I like Echo Lites, good reliable bikes (to my knowledge) and the one I rode was nice and easy to throw about. Looks good too.
  12. It's great for BMX style stuff, or attempting to get up bigger stuff that needs run up (big for me anyway) - but it's SO heavy for small stuff. 18 shall be ordered on the 27th! Cheers man!
  13. I've recently cut down on the rubbish food I eat, and only stick to three main meals a day - usually. I use to snack throughout the day, and although I didn't gain much weight, I saw myself slowly getting bigger. By snacking, I meant main meals throughout the day which obviously isn't good for me (6 main meals vs. 3 - I must add that I was walking with a substantial weight on my back for hours every day and gigging most evenings which cut down how much the food could have effected me had I been sitting down and doing nothing). I honestly think it's a stupid thing to not eat, because: 1) As mentioned before, it's fuel for your body - no fuel no go. 2) Your overall health declines at a crazy pace - one of my uni mates never has much money for food, but drinks water and milk a lot. Although it's not as good, it seems to keep him in a decent state. He's now realized he can eat bread throughout the day. Before realizing this, his health was appalling, and he couldn't concentrate in any classes, and found it hard to talk. 3) Your mental state declines at a substantial rate too - I get grumpy as f**k when I don't eat, so I can't imagine what it'd be like after a couple of weeks. This is my opinion though, and because of the fact that I love food I couldn't imagine someone not eating. None of my family have been in the position where they haven't eaten - as far as I know. I've gone through rough patches where I haven't had much food to eat - but I always found a nutritious substitute to make sure my health didn't plummet because of it. I think I went a bit off subject in this post, and quite possibly contradicted myself, but oh well!
  14. I occasionally get a headache from wearing my helmet too tight, or if it rubs too much in one spot. All of the above have been countered by drinking loads of water/what ever during the day, and maybe carrying some painkillers.
  15. Well, I'm currently running 16 rear, 22 front. That is crazy heavy for me, and although gives the speed to get up some objects, restricts you on many other moves. I'll be going to 18 soon - which I think is ok. Anyone want to help me out here?
  16. If TGS use to be called Street, then why not call it Urban Trials? You've got Natural Trials, so why not Urban. Just my addition to it.
  17. You mentioning the forks has brought something to my attention. My bike lacks the bottom cup and padding(?) on the forks - this might be the reason for my creaking. The forks wobble like a mo fo. Time for some blagging for borrowing parts, I think.
  18. Stick with the ACS, you know it's what you need to do.
  19. I think my riding would get worse, if that's possible. Even though I am actually in need of new grips, tryall lock ons are what I'm getting!
  20. They will probably offer you a reduced fee for a start - which if you decline I'd imagine they'll wipe it all together. Although small claims isn't anything big for them, with the current state of england, I doubt they want to be losing any users/potential users through bad post. Good luck with getting the money sorted man - they shouldn't be allowed to do that!
  21. Mine creaks when I apply any pressure on either pedal, from being at the top. I've grown to ignore it now.. Mine's suppose to have new BB and newish cranks (now battered).
