Laugh if you want, the thing is amazing. It's the love child of a Firestorm and a tractor :wink: :lol:

Rocking a Skrillex haircut right now, no regrets :lol:

Can you see over the bars :lol: :lol: Looks like a really nice bike that. It's very clean and luckily BM's don't go wrong too often but when they do it can be expensive which makes up the extra fuel mileage. Now don't your old man near it or you wont see it again.

Easily :lol:

Yeah, so much cheaper to run than the Strom was though. The current insurance quotes I'm getting are about 1/3rd of the price :lol:

My brother and dad don't really like it that much, I don't think :lol: They prefer their own bikes, which is fine.. Even if they are wrong :lol:

I was going to say "do tell" but then I realised that might not be such a good idea :lol:

I think the better weather helps in getting you doing more things out of doors,

It's all legal !! Just .
Ck has gotten me into paintball and now I'm a addict ! Love putting grown men on the floor with a few well placed shots to the crutch ! I've even joined a team .
I've been getting very lazy over the last few years and my fitness is crap ,I tried the gym and other activities but the motivation wasn't there until paintball .
Running around the woods giving out pain ,I'm finding fun - sure my knees hurt like hell for a few days but there getting stronger and I'm dropping weight .
Who said getting fitter was boring !.

glad you've found something you enjoy lloydie. I came to the realization that I must have a motorbike in my life, after working hard all week, jumping on the bike and going for a ride is like therapy..... :thumbup:

I stopped paintballing a few years, it was more expensive than biking and was just turning into a gear-scene, with new teams of kids arriving every month, all with the latest and greatest kit (usually a spare set too) all funded by the bank of mum and dad.
That in itself wasn't a problem but they had no interest in playing the game properly and a few were banned for tinkering with their markers mid-game!
Have you got your own kit yet?

Na, sold it all to appease the wife :D I think she binned my mask though, I wasn't happy!
It's something I'd love to take up again, but I was spending at least £40 a week and missing most weekends :Argue:

Shame , don't think I'd be happy either with how much a good one costs!!

£40 a week ain't to bad .
Think it cost me £50 a time when I go (I use a lot of paint lol)
