Synopsis:

New York city boy learns to weld , builds arty custom chopper bikes and is very creative. Flexes muscles on street. Probably ride like a dog but great art IMO. I quite like the chubby (puppy fat) red head presenter.

Havent been to Quinns for ages . Used to use the action bikes / pembroke cycles on London Road but went back not so long ago and it had closed down. They had some good mechanics in there. Anyway enjoy the peaks

NO i got wasted the other night and was in bed till 3pm but i do seem to suffer bad hangovers a lot these days

Where about are you in liverpool? What are the main shops now , i saw that a new giant store had opened near the brewery. Might even see you in the peaks tomorrow

Yes but live in sheffield now so not much help, how is the mountain biking scene in liverpool these days. Delamere was my usual place.

When i buy a bike or anything for that matter, i look at value not price. I have never ridden either of these bikes but i looked at buying both in the last 2 weeks, what was the result i hear you cry! I bought a 2nd hand genesis alptitude with cane creek s8 headset for £240 = value.

Havent built it up fully yet but rolling chasis feels right, reasonable long tt and slack HA a good compromise for all mountain. Build quality is industrial but at that price who cares, worst bit is the cheap paint , which is a bit of a niggle on a steel frame but hey ho.

Ive always fancied ago of this. Someone told me it originated in Ireland anyone like to confirm / rubbish this?

So were all agreed the peaks destroys bikes!

new drivetrain every 1500 miles makes it a very expensive place to be

I once had ecstasy with loads of ket in apparently , i fell asleep. ❓

Surfer,

you beat me to it , liverpool has its fair share of "celebs" and even more wanabees!

Good to see Purple " can i touch your muscles" Aki in there, hasnt he just been sent down again.

Surely that's only a problem if you don't like picking up young, drunk/drugged girls for casual sex though.

No comment

OP this stuff always existed you've just not seen it before.

Not everyone has had the opportunities you have.

yet i do think the scallies today are thicker than the ones i grew up with.

No they havent had the opportunities i have had but then they also havent had some of the shit i have had to deal with either.

anyway, i'll just go back to my little world and shut up and let it carry on.

Druid , am not saying all the bad stuff is here in the UK but we do have a problem with teenage pregnancy , drinking, drug use in this country when compared to the rest of Western Europe

I have read a book!

Its on in the background my GF is watching it as she used to work in a family assesment centre and is training to be a counsellor.

Am not saying every teenager is like this but , when i was that age the drug dealers / naughty boys etc at least some sense.

country.

I have lived in a bubble for the last couple of years and manage to avoid this shit, this has just reminded me of the crap

Took my JR possibly crossed with a beagle were not so sure out yesterday in the peaks , you have to go slow/ wait on the downhills and flats though, did about 10 miles but he bonked right at the end poor lad so i walked the last 1/2 mile . He was a hungry boy when i got home i tell you.

Not so sure about putting a dog in a rucksack , if you crash your going to hurt it

Thanks , yes Robin woods is in the old police house. iirc

Nice vids will, is this Jaccobs on Kinder does it take you down past the old police station / Robin Wood in Baber Booth.

Got a genesis Alptitude on the way maybe not as hardcore or as the others but meant to be a good frame

PGO Cevennes

Dano , its called medium / long term market stratergy. Secondly your 30/40 % is invalid as there are different mark ups for different markets …. check out my website comparethemarkup.com not comparethemarket.com. SIMPLES 😀

Geoffj if you want one , i can get you one and post it to you. We used to have a guy buy the pop up tents and put them on ebay for more than what we charged plus delivery costs.

Yes i used to work for decathlon and they sell their bikes at cost or even a loss in the hope they make it back on +1 sales and establish themselves in the market . The bikes are good too, I doubt there is a better bike available for the money.

Looks like both , i didnt even think about the inner, this goes from bad to worse. dont think there is enough inner , maybe just get away with the outer , wont know till i try.

Its bggered isnt it, i need to get a new set…
