Solid hardwood, duc tape, a few shonktastic amendments, and a great bit of resistance training equipment is born…. not sure the weight, but heavy enough after a few shoulder presses and upright rows…..

and you can use it to smash doors down! I am very jealous.

**** me dave………….get a life man……. 😯

but can you ride to work on it?

should I get a life like yours ton? 🙄

Not too sure the wife would be too happy if i was to saw the legs off the kitchen table though.

Good idea, I might give that a go sometime. Im currently using one of these

dave, it might be a bit more exciting than making stuff from old tat………not much tho…. 😀

So it’s just me that’s quietly impressed by the ingenuity.

Is that another homemade contraption at the end of the grey mat?

give that a name, create an ad to show on daytime telly (with the obligatory buff folk using it) and you’d be rich idave… combine it with your diet as some sort of holistic approach and you’d be even more so!

your life has never struck me as more exciting than that… I must have missed that thread 😉

i have just cut my toe nails……..do you want them for a bit more ballast…. 💡

shipping costs would be a bugger psycle, unless people used their own hardwood dining table legs…

Do you sleep on your floor?

Only at night

Do you use a big hairy handbag as a dumbell? Ingenious…

Are you sure those copper clips on the handle bars are tight enough to stop the whole thing pivoting and smacking you in the chin ?

I like it btw, although I would prefer to have a nice comfy bike seat on the end instead of the D handle – so I could sit down for a breather every now and again 🙂

I think you should spend less time taking the piss out of my gym equipment and more time hanging your pictures.

the handlebars aren’t for push ups ernie, that pleasure comes from the pivoted bars as spotted by yeti boy

they’re for all sorts of other things….

Ah, that was going to be my guess for their use too!

Whilst others might not appreciate it, I think those pics quite clearly demonstrate that you know a thing or two about fitness training.

OK, so first proper workout effort and the handles need changing. maybe garden gate handles aren’t ideal…….

or you could have just ridden your bike… oh, well 🙄

where did I say I didn’t ride my bike today?

Is this the next big thing after singlespeeds, fixies, and cyclocross?
Just run along the trails with a set of handlebars and some wood.

Not just “some wood” …….. table legs.

Although I suspect iDave is working up to the day when he can run along the trails with a set of handlebars and an entire dinning room table.

i dream of such a day ernie…. and maybe some cutlery and napkins in my camelbak

it needs some bar ends

(Love this funny thread)
