  1. Being in Andover you're a stones throw from Bear Hill where you can ride it 'legally' but you'll always look like a chav on it
  2. Good stuff! Nice seeing a whole bunch of riding in each spot and some really sweet riding- you look properly comfortable on that bike.
  3. But why would you choose to watch 13(ish?) more hours of 'padded out shite'? Anyway, enough of that. Haven't seen Game of Thrones at all but the BBC Twenty Twelve and more recent W1A series' make me smile. I know they're not exactly clever but it does amuse me.
  4. Except that you could, if you wanted to.
  5. Which is what I said isn't it? Although I imagine some companies may put in an early repayment fee into 0% deal contracts just for the hell of it.
  6. I'm not sure you're actually saying anything there at all (note I've edited my first post or clarity).
  7. Most 0% deals allow you to pay the balance early with no charges but I imagine if there's interest involved there'll be an extra charge for paying off early.
  8. No, because you're acting like a troll I think I can give you shit.
  9. I'm afraid I reckon you're in the minority. I know it's a hyped up american show but I thought the idea of it was quite clever and almost believable but the characters and acting really make it work and once I started watching I had to keep going until the end to find out what happened.
  10. Be prepared to go full couch potato and watch the whole lot. It only gets better!!
  11. You can see it's a 74Kingz style bracket but it's bolted to the hanger bolt rather than the axle.
  12. More likely to be the Animal Tour with Martyn Ashton et al.
  13. I wouldn't have thought it would be covered by insurance but always worth checking. Not unless you can pretend the issue has been caused by recent bad weather or something... How major is the remedial work going to be?
  14. I know that feeling. The Skye is a really nice bike and really well thought out but isn't for everyone. The benefits of things like the bolt through axles don't really make much difference for 99% of people but then again if he seriously is going to take £700 for it then it's a serious bargain and you'd easily get your money back if you decided not to stick with it and sell it on with a proper ad that doesn't make it look stolen!!
  15. I reckon you'd feel cramped on the Skye... That was one of the main reasons I got rid of mine- they're awesome bikes but designed for Danny who's about 5' 6" and for any normal sized person (I'm about 5' 10"/11" or so) it's seriously short!
  16. How tall are you? Nope, it went to Dorset via eBay.
  17. Well I paid £1200 for the complete one from Dave and although I possibly paid a little over the odds (these things were like hens teeth until the Arcade came out so I jumped on it when I could) that looks almost new so he should be asking for over £1000 and more likely £1200+ for it...
  18. Nah, it's not his (well the pictures might be but the bike, if it exists, won't be)- I bought that and have since sold the frame kit to a dude in Poland.
  19. The anal sex must be a bit of a downer though surely? Unless you're into that kind of thing of course.
  20. But with some awesome yellow pipework going on.
  21. But that doesn't seem to be what cyclocross events are- they just seem to be XC races on the wrong bike.
  22. I dunno, cycle speedway is super gay and unbelievably cringeworthy to watch but as Mark says it is a 'thing' in its own right whereas CX (is that an approved abbreviation or did I just make it up?) is just deliberately using totally the wrong bike for what you need.
