Just had an offer accepted on a house, pretty damn happy with that. Now to sort everything out!
-
I reckon you could do both, like you said get rid of a few of the cars and she should have no complaints..... But if it's not causing any problems financially then it's only a problem to her. You'll just have to explain the joys of buying an older car and the money pits they become.
-
What would she prefer; you spend the money getting the car you have to a standard you want and enjoy doing it or having a few nights out and a cheap hooker every month? I'm pretty sure i know which one she'd prefer you do!
-
Scary thought.... Oh and I'm a MoD structural engineer working on the overhaul and refuel project of the "navyz submarinez".
-
That was so nicely put together, riding was awesome and edit was spot on.

I do love my MG1's for the grip, low weight (especially with ti axles) and low price (I got a set with Ti axles off of ebay form Hong Kong for £50 posted). The only down fall to them is the thickness of the body does mean they have a tendancy to flip over under your foot if your feet aren't on them perfectly. I've been tempted by cages and bike's i've ridden with them feel nice, your foot sits "into" the pedal a bit more. However they just scare me and my shins to bits!

I miss my PD150 Leon, no where near as fun as the EP3 type R i had, but shit load more fun and a hell of a lot cheaper to run than the E39 520 estate i've got now!

Plymouth Christmas Eve Ride 2013

I dropped out of Uni in the February of my first year and everything has worked out pretty well. I got chased a little by student finance, but that was swiftly sorted; the rental situation isn't something you can really get away from, how much longer do you have one the lease? You can't think too much about the debt, because if you were worried about that you wouldn't have gone to uni in the first place. If you aren't happy there and you haven't been happy there for a while, then leave. It was definitely the best thing I have done and I certainly don't regret it. But as Luke has said, speak to the right people as soon as possible and try and get things sorted; at least to the point you know exactly where you will stand if you do decide to leave.

Irrespective of what your buying, if you're working so hard/such long hours, having to self "medicate" (for want of a better word) by having to eat/drink shit and then being subsequently stressed to the point it's making you seriously physically ill. Let alone any mental illness it may be causing. It just can't be worth it Jardo. Money is awesome, but if you aren't happy as a result of everything else that comes with it, then it's really not worth it. Is there any chance work will let you reduce your target and work less hours as a result? The other bits you'll have to do on your own, but you know that. You may to me be a right odd one, but even I worry that shit has got that bad for right now dude. Got to make some changes.

Brad if you think that looks like a Sky then every high bb double triangle frame does.
-
Gotta agree with Josh, my breath looks just like a koxx sky frame, but the play and maestro frames don't really look like them at all.
-
Guess they intentionally used a pic of an Orangutang?
-
I like i I Jo riding the proto for GT then? Be awesome to see a big bike manufacturer producing a trials frame. The drop out area does look a little suspect, does anyone know if Kenny has killed one yet? Intrigued to find out a few more details about it geo, weight, material etc.
-
complicated Probably best giving them a ring for something like this. If they don't have it speak to Moore Large the distributor.
-
I thought he sold the ellen or stan ones?
-
Don't think so, there is a bit about it over on OTN too... http://www.observedtrials.net/vb/f3/koxx-kanned-50918/index3.html

Running your grind until it's dead will improve modulation, but reduce bite and hold. Adding Tar will just add a bit more bite and hold again, but at the reduction of modulation.
-
Quite a few people at work have had issues with it. I'd wait a few months for the bugs to be fixed.
-
Reynolds 631 is probably your best bet out of the tubesets they sell, look at the new Stanton Slackline 631 and their reasons for switching to that grade tubing.
-
That's all the main stuff anyways, depending on what sort of riding you like to do there is a hell of a lot around here. Search for south west trials on face book, decent group with lots of rides going on. As for someone showing you the spots, give me a PM and i'll send you my number, i'm sure some of us will be about for a little evening ride at some point this week and we'll definitely be riding somewhere this weekend.

Vidrium Fiber Prototype (New Pics Added in the second page)
craigjames replied to -G-'s topic in Bike Pictures
Probably not as strong as a M5 if its the same weight. Can only speculate though. Intrigued as to how it was constructed. -
No amount of customer service will make up for poor products. It helps ease the issue, but never solves it. Josh will most likely sort it for you because he's a nice chap. But there is a reason that a good quality custom/ handbuilt frame costs so much.
