Wish I could afford it. Doing 75 miles on the MTB around the new forest on Saturday which is considerably flatter than the sponsored ride. I must be fookin nuts, especially as my right knee is currently fooked :roll:

Re: My Tuono Thread - Kinda Sold :(

Post by geodude »

I am starting to feel sick to be honest :sick: . It's only the fact that it's going to Chris (if he decides to take it) and the cash will clear my overdraft that I'm kinda ok with it.

I have no idea when things will be back on an even keel. Family illness is a bitch especially when there is only one outcome :(

I will hopefully will be back on a big V at some point but until then i'll have to settle for the DRZ.

"Why not get rid of the DRZ" i hear you say? Well believe it or not, i'll get more for it 8O

It's a newer bike and in SM mode quite saught after so the idea will be to use it to fund the next bike when the time comes.
