I do prefer Guy Martin the arrogant rebel, rather than the mums favourite on C4. I love that type of sports person and he'll hopefully make it more interesting this year if it happens.
-
It could be happening, back on a fireblade! I hope it happens and he gets something this time around.

Ugh I have known tits like this alsoWhat I wouldn't give right now to be mortgage free, No idea how people manage it. Fair enough spend a small amount on yourself - small in terms of the amount given to you anyway, and use the rest to make yourself secure.
Beefy right now I'm envious of you even being ON the ladder!
I can't see a time in the near future where Jay and I can say the same...
First thing I'd do with that sort of money is give a load to my mum to get her out of any debt / pay her back for helping when I've needed it and get her out of the horrible bit of London she's in..
Then find me and Jay a nice house we could afford a mortgage on and put most of the rest into that. Keep a little bit in an ISA and savings for emergencies (Car dying, pipes bursting etc)..
The depressing thing is even £200k couldn't buy us a house round here
It is difficult and made 100 times harder if you already have moved out! Hopefully they do some good offers with these new homes they're building as promised.

they have to pass through a very dangerous zone that most people dont even realise they are doing.
Take two sets of people in identical circumstances. One has a 95% mortgage, the other has paid a load off and only has a 20% mortgage..
They both lose their jobs and cant pay... guess who the banks will repossess first?? its a lot easier to sell a house and recover a 20% debt - not so easy to sell a house and recover a 95% debt, especially after the occupiers have trashed the place because they are bitter its being repossessed.
so, be warned people, if you have high equity in your property and you fall on hard times, the banks wont hesitate in taking your house away...
Sorry my comments were relating to when someone is given a large sum of money. If they have the chance to totally clear the mortgage I don't know how they don't. For the risks like you mentioned above.

I'm getting a hose tap put in under my sink for the same purpose, can wash the bikes round the back and car on the front. Not sure if that's an option for you but saves the tap connectors, some don't seal properly on certain types of taps.
-
Do the DAS! I went 125 and have gained some great experience. However after 2 weeks I wanted the bigger bike and its been much harder to get there by taking on the 125 first. Also in some situations a bigger bike can be more forgiving,(yet also much less forgiving in other situations!).
-
It should do, the sound of it could wake a sleeping baby 2 miles away!
-
Oh that's a good idea because I am sure there will be someone coughcoughGINcoughcough that needs petrol.
Need to look for a lunch spot too
So long as no one has a Panigale. I managed a tank and a half on a ride where one of those needed 3 tanks. And its wing mirror started falling off.
My uncle has a 1299 Panigale, had it 18 months and still hasn't run it in! Such a waste
This sounds like fun, I'll come if I've got a 'big' bike by then
Chances are I'll be on a 125 so don't be put off by that
-
10mph limit a bit further down the road, not a huge distance.

-
Did you replace the recommended parts, including the bearings?
-
Yeah I think I will look at a premier inn you can't go wrong for the price and there is always a pub next door
CRAZY IDEA maybe we could all stay at the same one (apart from beefy)
But Stu has requested I share his bed!

I'm the 3rd member of that party
Get stuffed!! I don't want her up duff
You can keep it though

No one is gonna wanna come now we've shown our true colours

Let me get this straight.
this is a 2 hour ride (including stops for photos etc).. in 3 months time and its going to be so exhausting that people will need a hotel room to recover.
does that about cover it?
Actually more like a 6 hour ride for me and probably about 300 miles
I am making a weekend of it with the wife
