  1. Hi Chas, I'm riding Brighton tomorrow (Monday) with Spode, starting around 11am at the Skatepark. Be good to meet local riders, PM me for my number if yo fancy coming along? Darren
  2. In the words of Lee Evans.. Walking into the bathroom after my wife has had a shit is like walking into a wall of smell!
  3. Back to the original thread title.......... Not properly washing the cup or spoon up after making a cup of tea... Being amazingly good at parking, bucking the trend.....
  4. Im in Margate, but work in this area..... And I adore Scott...... Like a spot...... )
  5. I've had my fair share of bikes, but this is by far the best I have owned...... I prefer a traditional set up with a seat, this bike fits my style - great for bunnyhops, skids and wheelies! Darren
  6. I considered that, but my partner is wanting to learn to ride, so I wanted something she could have once she gets her CBT when I get a bigger bike. Even when I get my new licence, I may not get a bigger bike immediately......,
  7. Meet my new toy. Due to the start up costs ( Bike / Helmet / Leathers / Insurance etc ), I've only taken a CBT Licence at this point. Being 33, and had a full driving licence since 18, I'm in no rush at this moment to get the full licence (Will be within a year though). I thought if I'm going to do it, I'll do it properly. Yamaha YZF R125, brand new. Amazing bike, up to 70 no issues, amazing ride, comfy, but really helping me to learn ride a motorbike, completely difference to riding a mountain bike! Great residual value, and I think looks amazing. As I said, I'll most likely upgrade to a full licence within a year, but for the time being, I'm having a hell of a lot of fun! Surely, that's what riding bikes is all about ) Thanks Darren
  8. Hi Chaps. I'm staying in Richmond (West London) Monday and Tuesday night, and will be taking my bike with me. I wanted to see if there are any riders that fancy going up, as I don't know what is in the area? I'll be free from around 630 each night, be great to meet and ride with new people. Thanks Darren
  9. What do you do if you come across a tiger in the jungle? Wipe it off and apologise.......
  10. Hi All, A lot of the "Old School" riders are no longer on the scene, so I wanted to see who is still riding in and around Kent. I currently live in Margate, but ride all over the county, so was wondering who is about now a days? Thanks Darren
  11. Prob a bit too late if Im honest mate. Ill be finishing around 4
  12. Hi Chaps. Date change, now riding Saturday 3rd August from 5 instead. Thanks Darren
  13. Hi Chaps, I'm staying in Watford this coming Thursday evening, and am looking to ride from around 7ish if anyone is available? Thanks Darren
  14. Live in Margate, but I know lots of riders in the area!
  15. I was working in Woolwich this Monday just gone, and I wanted to pay my respects, so I took the time to visit the memorial. For such a horrific event, the sorrow you feel looking at all the messages, coupled with the heartfelt love shown from all races and religions was mind blowing. Kids as young as 3 laying flowers, young children around 6 years old leaving their toy soldiers in memory of Lee left me in tears, and Im not afraid to admit it. The one thing that struck me was the silence. The exact spot where Lee fell is a mass of lovely flowers and messages. Truly mindblowing, and a moving memorial.
  16. Hi Chaps, A few of us are riding in Ashford Sunday Evening from 5, for those who have doubted Ashford, give it a go! Loads of great street spots! Meeting at the skatepark at 5. PM me if your interested. Thanks Darren
  17. Hi Chaps, I'm staying in Hyde Park Wed Night for work, and will be bringing my bike with me for fun and frolicking, cause hotel life is piss boring. Looking to see if anyone fancies a London ride, meeting around 6, close to or around Waterloo? Be great to see some new faces, let me know, PM me or post here. Thanks Darren
  18. Cool, Ill prob be starting at the skatepark round 6ish.......
  19. Hi Chaps, I'm staying in Watford Tues Night for work, ad will be having a little sesh from around 6 in the town if anyone fancies joining me? PM me your number if you fancy it? Thanks Darrem
  20. Hi Chaps, Can't be done with these high BB, super light trials bikes, with the silly tilted forward bars, stupid lycra etc, so I went back the the only school I know........Old School! Ashton 26 Ashton Forks Rear 07 Magura with Rock CC Pads Front Avid V Brake with Onza Pads Atomz Crank Hope Headset Atomz Hubs on Atmoz Rims Trial tech High Rise Bars Hope Stem Single Cage Pedals Continental 2.3 Rear and 2.1 Front Tensile Front Freewheel New Heatsink Chain Tensioner Guaranteed smile on your face when you jump on it, being a super short twitchy bike, that's as great on the streets and parks as it is on the rocks, Oh yea forgot to add, this is the frame I broke my leg on..................... Thanks Darren
  21. Hi Chaps, A few of us are riding Dover tonight from 630, good street to be had there. We are meeting at 630 at the Premier Inn, near the Port Entrance. Hope to see some new riders there! Thanks. Darren
  22. Hi Chaps, I have a loose non drive side cank arm, and need advice how to fix it. The BB is tight in the shell, the splines are clean with no burring, the crank arm splines are clean again with no burring. I've cleaned the BB Arm, but is still loose. The crank is pressed up solidly against the BB fixed spacer, but its still rocking. Any idea how to resolve? Thanks Darren
  23. Absolutely ridiculous bar angle .............. stupid
  24. Oh and I almost forgot, the stupid new sloped forwrd bar angle ridden by riders. I'm not going to get into a debate about it, I think it's stupid, no benefit and makes a rider look like a gorilla....... Never saw any of the riders from yesteryear riding like it.........................
