  1. http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_nkw=thermal+lycra+men&_sacat=0&_odkw=thermal+lycra&_osacat=0&_from=R40 Shorts and tee of your choice over them, I may get some myself..?
  2. You will have to go to a smaller ring up front. Pictures?
  3. Are you saying it will be cheaper to insure a more expensive car? I mean it kind of makes sense, I can't really gather where you are coming from. Bloody crazy!
  4. While watching I was thinking, he would do really well on rocks, 30 seconds later, there he was, doing great, keep him at it!
  5. Stupid people! Good luck dude It's bound to be pricey whatever I go for in the end. Didn't think to start looking about insurance. Shall do now!
  6. Yes, was out in the car, just going to the shops talking about it, they said it would go up by for me, 17, £1000. Pain in the ass! Good news is that a mate is selling his saxo, £500ish, 84, 000 miles, see him on wednesday so will discuss with him!
  7. Ahh, I thought they would provide a car, hence the cluelessness, seems like the more 'correct' thing to do, go in an emtpy car park and just practice until I feel ready?!
  8. Aye! What you did the lessons in your parents car, or once you had passed you crashed? Going to do some adding up ect. Nope, as before, just need a form from work and get that before next payday and everything should be sorted! Also it's a no go on the 106, she says she wants to keep it?! Best get on auto trader!
  9. Aint no 'L' in my tax code, and it kind of does, I didn't know tax was so much, pretty silly to be honest.. Step dad had something to talk about it, did research and made a call, turns out I need a P45/46 form from the finanace person, and need to do it before next payday! Thanks for the help I guess, and going to speak to my sister about le 106!!!
  10. 2 Part topic so please read both? Some of you may know that I recently started an apprenticeship, and Friday was payday, all good. The day I started, 24th September was like before payday so I didn't get paid at all and told I would be paid next month, (now). In my account went in £801, where as I was meant to get £1066, because of the few days I did when I started, make sense, I hope so? But then because of tax and national insurance it went down by £265, hence the £801. I am sure i'm not meant to be taxed until I am 18? Or until I have been payed a total of £5000 or something along them lines? My family is telling me it is emergency tax, which most likely is, so what can I do about this? The money went in on Friday, after work and my payslip then was at my house when I got home, so can't speak to work about it until Monday. I know when I finish my apprenticeship I will get the emergency tax back, but to be honest for the 4 months until I am 18 I would rather have the emergency tax in my bank gaining intrest or being spent. Someone give me a hand, is there someone I can email/call? And part 2! Seeing as I have money going in my accout I may aswell try and get my driving lessons done, there is a Peugeot 106 on my drive, owned by my sister, who can't drive and hasn't done a lesson for over 2 years. I could buy that off her now, or at least ask, and then I know I have something to drive, when I have finished lessons and can afford this ridiculous thing called insurance. Would it be better to save up most of my wonga and do lots of lessons for say 15 weeks, average time to pass? Or go on one of these crash courses? I don't know that much about them so don't know if it would make it cheaper, quicker or maybe even easier? idk. Who I would do driving with if you want any info - http://chriskellydrivingschoolnw.co.uk/ Thanks
  11. All of them Inspired's look absoloutley amazing! Do want.

      They shut down last month. Armands announced it and did a closing sale

  14. Bike looks sweet. Style is sweet. Overall = sweet!
  15. Looks great, hose routing is superb! Looks so clean as well, hope to be doing something like this myself soon too! Just started an apprenticeship and been given permission to use the work shop, when ever I want, all I need is a jig and some tubes! Good job though
  16. Lol, why did you have a maggy lever on you? Hahah.
  17. Just took everything off, greased bolts ect, put pressure all around the wire in a hope to straighten it out a little. Ahhh, well I want grip and bounce there a no go. Is a bit silly but there not going to put something made by Try-All on an all Echo bike now are they? When I get a few bits next week going to go for a Maxxis, and that beefy dh tube, hopefully sort any problems! edit - Just went out, do a skid, jam foot in between seat stays, and pooof, slipped out, may just wait till I get some stuff.
  18. Gentle isn't an option for me i'm afraid, hahaha Just having a look around on Tartys, seen that the Echo tyre is a bit tougher? Lasts longer and is lighter, why don't people use these? When buying new tube and tyre set I may just buy that massive Kenda DH tube? Looks like it may withstand anything along with a Maxxis?

    Tyres

    Everyone is bound to have there own favrioute move, well mine being a pivot on the front wheel to 180 then roll out or carry on with a line, but the problem is, I think this is damaging my tyre, there is a wire running where I have marked green on the picture, I know this because I pierced it through a previous tyre, again see picture, I am 100% sure this is all from that move. Just spent about half hour of it constantly happening to me, pretty much, the tube pops out of the tyre/rim, definately not the psi, have it quite high, purely because of this. I don't want to buy a new rear tyre just to know that it will buckle in a relatively short period of time? Will having a 19" but slim tube help this? currenlty running 19" x 2.25, and a new tyre ofc? Cheers!
  20. If you think it is overpriced, pop the guy a message and don't start a big and pointless debate about him, how would you feel if you were trying to sell something and people were posting crap about you? It also isn't going to help him sell the bike as easy as he wants too, in a way. It's a brand new 2012 frame, hardly anyone has one in the UK, what I know of, and the spec is honestly quite good, so take your hate somewhere else, Fin.
  21. Had an old school feeling because of the camera Other than that great riding!
