I gave them a ring they've said we can take a payment holiday for up to 4 months so that will give me some breathing room once the redundancy money dries up...

Lol looks that way!

Does anybody know what's happened to www.bmx-forum.co.uk? I try to go on there but Google keeps telling me it may harm my computer and won't let me continue. Any ideas anyone?

Success I've got 2 interviews lined up!!! Didn't expect a reply so quick, first step accomplished!!

I've worked in an armour factory for the last 9 years, I'm a qualified MIG welder by trade. I guess now is as good a time as any to start using it! I've put out 15-20 CVs now see if anything gets a bite.

Yeah we've made over payments before, I will ring them first thing in the morning to see what they can do. Hopefully they can sort something out. Never thought to ring them! Cheers Dave.

Hi guys bit of a long shot here but it's worth a try. I got made redundant 2 weeks ago and obviously I have my redundancy pay but it's not going to last me long, in the mean time I've signed on for job seekers but my main concern is how I'm going to pay my mortgage if I can't find work ASAP. Is there any sort of financial services I can contact? If anybody has got any advice or has been through anything similar I would like to hear what you did? Thanks in advice guys.

I'll ask my dads mate if I can have a go on his TL1000R see if I can handle one.

I've had a few bikes, biggest was a zx6r. I've never ridden a twin cylinder machine before, only singles and inline fours.

I want one just to sit and look at!!

Suzuki TL1000S what are people's thoughts on them? I know about the rotary damper on the back and I'll budget to get that changed, is there any pit falls I should be aware of?

Best looking 26" frame ever IMO and this is one of the nicest I've seen.

Dual Vee's for me! Avid sd7 levers Vocal chord linear cables Shimano deore arms Onza clear pads Smooth rims

Mark W I believe this belonged to you? This is by far my favourite 24"

Great reply Ben! I get the usual crap when I'm out riding I usually have my headphones in so I can't hear the moaning. I actually had an old woman swing at me with her handbag a few weeks ago!

I wanted to cry when I heard this

That's really nice, really clean and simple looking.

Am i welcome now i ride bmx? Got some serious daggers last year!

Yay!!! i'll be there fo' sho. Probably be down with Rob Leech too.

Cant wait to get back on a bike when i've got the money! Miss it so much

Well for those of you who follow Moto GP It looks like Casey Stoner will retire at the end of the season.

I seriously hope we have some good weather!

Its not the distance more funds mate! But luckily Mr Leech has come to my rescue!

No you dont need to run Bmx cranks regular mtb cranks will be fine. Gearing i would say a short cage rear mech with a close ratio cassette and a 36t sprocket and bashring/chain guide would be good all round. As for forks it all depends on budget!
