  1. Need to get back into riding this year as last year was quite lazy. Hoping for a few riders to venture into Bournemouth on the 30th for a social ride. Who's in?
  2. If it's Bournemoutn i'm twisting the GF's arm till she let's me go.
  3. good god! Orders are coming in. Will Martyn A get pissed with me for making these? Don't really want to upset the man that got me into Trials.
  4. not quite sure yet. Around 15quid, but have to do the bits at work as i'm in a block of flats and have no where to do it. So i can't give a date when i'll have one finished. What would be the colour you want? White, Red Or Black? Can't do a Carbon weave finish as have no clear gel.
  5. hello there. I made the Carbon seat for Tom as a proto type. It snapped as i didn't use a Clear Gel coat for strength and didn't get the perfect finish. Also Tom was giving the bike a "diet" so weight had to be dropped on the seat as well. Managed to get the seat to 42.2g, almost 14g lighter than the plastic one! But yes it snapped! The one i use has 2 layers of gel coat and 1 layer of carbon and weighs in at 61g, 5g heavier but stronger. The mould i made is breaking up a little and a new one will be made when i get the time at work to do it. I will post a thread up when i have a finished product that i'm 100% happy with. Hope this is useful in future to anyone.
  6. so long as bike works, i'll be riding. If not, so long as legs work, i'll be there! Gonna be a sad moment when finally have to say goodbye to the club and all that comes with it. everyone will have to make effort to meet up 4some street rides next year me thinks.
  7. Meal and cinema = 11- just after lunch. Hannah, are you and Andy still up for it? Anyone else interested?
  8. i've been picked in a raffle to go to watch Bournemouth play on saturday, just got the daggers when i said to the missus that i'd be riding on sunday as well. But if i arrange something for the following weekend for me and her to do i can still come. Any suggestions as i'm really crap at thinking of activities for me and her? T
  9. Crash barrier on way home from work. Done.
  10. crash carrier on the way home, ridden from start to finish half hour ago. Well happy!

  11. have made a Black replica seat for my Ashton Justice Resolve out of 1 layer of carbon fibre, and it's still 10g heavier than the white plastic one! Grrrr

      i understand it's not alot, but as i'm trying to produce a better quality seat than the one it comes with i want it to be lighter as well. I could never bring myself to remove the seat completely.
