	Yeah, looks like the winds will be dropping around monday. Met office have issued severe weather warnings for this weekend in the midlands, and it looks like derby is smack bang in the centre of it
 - 
	Dunno, the wind is supposed to be worse tomorrow and it was practically un-rideable today. http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/em/derby_forecast_wind.html 45mph gusts, yay!

	Have you thought about it being a faulty motherboard? Seems as though you've tried most other things, so hardware wise it'll either be power, graphics or motherboard. Have you tried a different graphics card to see if it still continues? Just seems a bit funny that your graphics card would work fine until you upgraded other things.

	It's a shame you take that approach with everyone... even your own kids. I don't honestly think you can be mature. But yeah, ring/email tartybikes. T-F doesn't mean tarty-forum.

	Holy shit dude, where have you been hiding? Where abouts are you living now?
 - 
	Yep, i'd be up for that. Me and boumsong parked on some random housing estate last time. Only takes a few minutes to get into the centre of derby and it was free to park there. Usually meet everyone near the old silk mill next to the river for a bit of a warm up spot.

	My parents never did with ours either and it was a damn sight bigger than his with 3-4 times the amount of fish, but does he listen..... noooooo

	That rear drop out looks like a bit of a handful....
 - 
	Yeah, it sounded a bit harsh before.
 - 
	I never said you did.... if anything that makes it worse though.

	It's not really a problem if you can communicate along the way and learn to get over things rather than needlessly dragging them on out of pettiness and stubbornness.
 - 
	Only because he'd never get there...

	Bye mate, been nice knowing you. This beast is going to kill you At least you'll go out on a sweet ride though hey?

	On your period this week or something? Didn't mean to rattle the birdcage so to speak. Taxi drivers often talk crap, sorry. Wetherspoons is an extra £1.50 for a curry night meal in london. Pints are more expensive in wetherspoons in london, premier inn, travel lodge are all more expensive in london compared to the rest of england. London generally is more expensive, especially to live. Fact of the matter is that you can rent a REALLY decent place in 80% of the uk for far cheaper than you can mortgage in London. Handmade 12" for £3.99 hey? Where at? Take this one for example. http://www.primelocation.com/uk-property-to-rent/details/id/FISA7410553/ Used my parents postcode for that one, nowhere near Loughborough so you wouldn't have to worry about going back .

	In Loughborough, like i stated in my post and is written under my avatar over there somewhere <<<< Houses in the neighbouring towns and villages are much cheaper. My friends got their first rented place as a mid terrace house, two bedrooms, refitted kitchen and HUGE refitted bathroom for just £400pcm. That was in my home village of syston near leicester. London is massively expensive, everytime i go i cringe at how much people pay for things. I worked there a couple of years ago and was charged £10 for a 10" pizza from some grotty takeaway. I can get a 12" here from most places for around a fiver. It's bonkers. Click arrange lowest to highest price.... http://www.primelocation.com/uk-property-to-rent/search/?p=le11&ls=0

	Sorry but i disagree entirely. Around my area the rental prices aren't exactly cheap, but 500 will get you a 3 bed semi within walking distance of town, our last house was a huge 4 bed end terrace and that was 500 too. Single person council tax was 75, water 120 a year, gas and leccy was expensive but we had a shitty boiler and it should usually be far lower. Then all you need is a virgin media package for like 10 a month and everything else is your own. You would be coming out with around 200 spending a month, even more if you move in with a friend. Me and my girlfriend are currently in Loughborough in a 3 bed detached with garage, conservatory and 2 bathrooms for 625. Bills are a lot cheaper as its a newer house and is better insulated. I'm only on 850 after tax and i'm coming out with 400 spending each month. If i was on my own i'd get a small house or advertise to share in a normal house. There are plenty of sites with adverts for tennants and housemates. A flat would be even cheaper as round here flats are like 350 to rent and you get shared building council tax. Though i could never bring myself to live in a flat. The other option is find a couple of mates to move in with, should drop the bills a bit more for you. Though as a word of advice, try and find people who are pretty down to earth or that you don't know at all. I moved in with some people i thought of as friends and it turns out they were actually childish dicks.

	Nah, the wardens are pretty funny about just push bikes going up there. We were told to go use the 'nice country trail a few miles away'. We were only walking the bikes
 - 
	Thats the good spot people normally ride. Me and boum went last year and it was really good, sounds like a plan this weekend.
 - 
	Ahhh another derby rider. You should come out with us in derby town centre next time we pop out

	You can tell nobody here works in a car bodyshop What you want is one of these with a small head on it. You apply a large amount of suction through a compressor and use the metal handle in the centre of the rod to pull the dent out by yanking on the metal rod really hard. A car body shop would do it for a small cost without drilling or welding anything to the frame like the ridiculous ideas in this thread. They are expensive though so buying one would be largely pointless as it's half the price of most frames. Personally i'd just leave it. They probably won't notice and if they do it's time to show them a few bail videos and say it's unfortunate to happen so early on, but it will happen sooner or later and will most likely not affect the frame.

	I wouldn't worry too much mate, there's a guy in Loughborough (Mr Edward Potts) who has sorted out millions and billions and squillions of these levers so they run smooth and don't leak. So long as no bits are snapped/cracked he can get it going for you
 - 
	Sorry but you are clearly a danger to yourself and to people around you. Why has nobody institutionalised you yet?
