  1. Is Chelmsford good to ride? Colchester gets a bit boring after a while.

    Why don't you come down and find out for yourself, but its ok not the best place to ride. But for us its a bit shite as we ride here 24-7. Just a shame that i got home when there was a ride on lol.

  2. Hehe this is where i love the army, in jan the first week is my cat B theory then once i pass that i then go onto cat B Driving test if i fail i do it either an hour later or the next day, which is quite good. Then when i pass that i then go onto learning to drive tanks which is going to be ace.

  3. For anyone else who doesn't know where the round tables are they are down the steps from liverpool street straight arcoss the road then u will see some marble and stuff on your left and they are in there. There is also a little graveyard thingy as well. I warn you that u will probably get chucked off the benches straight away if you make alot of noise.

    Its a great place to ride in the morning/warm up!!! :)

  5. Koolio i want to see your bmx :S should be there with me new cam.......dont know how much i be riding because cast only comes off on wednesday from my wrist :P

    Yep have spoken to you nick but it al depends on what time i leave up here. i might not doing a lot a riding to as my gf is coming down to and i ain't seen her in a while :rolleyes:

  6. There is a few more questions... i am a man that likes his food, what is the food like? where are you based? how fit do you have to be?

    Joel :sleeping:

    The food here depends really sometimes its good then other times its fit for the bin. I most of the catering staff are exconvicts or people doing community service lol. As for fit wise just go out every other day running and riding a lot helps i found. But when you actually sign up and pass to recuit selection centre they give you a programme to follow. B)

  7. What are the days like when trianing? What are the time of what you do? Are the people nice or are there some dick heads that piss you off?

    Joel

    The TA is part time so it is exactly the same but you get paid for what you do but if you do full time you get a certain amount each year even if you have 6 months leave :D

    Joel

    Mornings usually start at 6:00am but im lazy so i get up around 7:00am go breakfast then start work at 8:30 finish at 5:00pm. mondays i do guitar lessons and on thursday i go snowboarding all paid by the army of course. The weekend warriors or the T.A suck i no a few people in the ta and wish they'd joined the regs. Most of the section commanders can be dickheads but thats only if you piss them off. On our tactical exercise we didnt sleep for 5 days because someone left litter in our hourbour area. Any more questions just ask.

  8. Hey dude yea im in the army. I thought about going into the engineers but you can do any course in any regiment. At the moment im in the royal signals but looking into other regiments it sounds shit. I'm looking at the blues and royals which are the queens guards. If your joinning up after school you will proberly come to where i am at the moment, which is Army foundation college.

    Its still a phase 1 trainning camp but it lasts a year and you do education.

    You get used to leaving everyone back home the people you end up meeting become your new family, if you got any more questions just bm me mate.

    P.s the army isn't royal because it went against the king back during the civil war :D

  9. (Y)  Just wondering if there were many trials riders around in the Salisbury or Bath areas. I've just been posted to Bulford with the army which is just down the road from both. Problem is i've got nobody to go riding with. If anyones about in this area then give us a shout.

    Cheers dudes (Y)

    I take it your in the artillery, im at still the foundation college only got 12 weeks left. Theres a few riders around that area i think your proberly beter off to travel as thats where most decent rides take place. I'm going back up north to harrogate but im taken my bike in a couple of weeks :(
