why do people chuck away things that work fine...?

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

New spark plug shapened up the blade cuts the grass a treat! Same once me and my father went to the local tip and came back with 4 mounting bikes and a retro fold up bike! Since now have been sold! I love going down there!

Yeah man I've been on and off the bike for years, mostly ride trails (well I seem to spend more time digging than riding :lol: ) but love a bit of park or street every now and again. I'm off for a couple of weeks with my reoccurring ACL injury at the moment but when I'm back on it we'll had to go for a ride, there's some good parks in Bristol :rockin:
