    I took one of those out last week I used the hammer and screwdriver method as I wasn't going to use it again and didn't want to spend about £10 quid on the tool.
    One side came out ok but had to get the stilsons on the other side as it was a pig to turn.
    I binned it straight after.

    Here you go.

    Two seats in the front three in the back with bulkhead.

    Space for bikes and gear in the back, so I have a dirty area and a clean area.

    I have the special x 2.5tdi with electric windows,mirrors cruise cont captins chairs, it took six months of looking at sheds before this one came up.
    The kids love it and even me mrs prefers to go in the van if we have long distances to cover.
    I have owned it a year now and can say I will not go back to a car.

    Rogerthecat, I am robidoo from VWT4 Forum but not a camper, I was told about a nice pub, go past the Millstone and as the road goes to the left there is a right turn(just before the narrow bit before the shops) but I can’t remember what it’s called.
    Any idea?

    I’d say a 06 Heckler with coil DHX5, black paint, in large, from my garage in Sheffield, at a reasonable price….

    How much were you thinking for the Heckler frame Dave?
    If you don’t want to say on here I could give you my e-mail addy.

    Wheelbase closed a couple of years ago due to the cost of running it.
    It was ok during the winter but once the weather turned there were less folks turning up.
    Was a great place to ride I rode the track with lads from all over the country, goes to show that if you build it they will come.
    Now then who is minted?

    I had a young couple out with their dogs two staffies on my commute route, both wre off the lead and trotting towards me.
    The first one was muzzled but the other wasn’t as I got closer they all saw me and the owners began to call them back, to no avail.
    I thaught here we go but the one that was muzzled just ignored me and passed but the other barked at me, but the couple just laughed and said oh don’t worry about her just kick her in the head.
    It’s true some dog owners are just dicks.

    In 2005 I went on a weeks bmx road trip round France and stayed in F1 hotels, there were 15 of us 3 per room and we all kept our bikes with us.
    Think it was about 21 euros per night, bang on!
    Was the best week. The French were sound, we turned up to a track and there was a bmx race in full flow with a huge turnout. We spoke to a few locals and watched the racing for a while, then the commentator told all the French riders to clear the track as it was closing for lunch and then said that the English riders were going to ride it (no pressure).
    My mates go every year and always have good tales to tell about the French folks.

    I smell horseshizz that spot is full of motorbikes most of all at weekends.
    It’s been there for years, I first went there in 1986/87 on my motorbike, it is a good spot for mtb too.
    The police have been trying to stop bikers for years without much sucsess, the thing is the locals recently held a downhill race which must have pi55ed the local residents off.
    Don’t think the threats will stop people riding there.

    I sold my BMX two years ago and lost touch with the scene, and I can’t believe how fast things are progressing.
    It’s like watching a video game.

    Trailstars are sound for razzing round the woods and jump spots.
    In fact I have been out today doing just that with my mate who has had his singlespeed Trailstar for about 7 years and still loves it.
    I would’nt like to spend more than a couple of hours in the saddle on one though.

    Not had any experience with the wonder cups but DMR do make some good reliable parts.

    Would love a go at fell running but need to lose more weight before I give it a try.
    Do you need a fell type shoe or could I use my regular running shoe(asics gel keyano)?
