  1. Sorry to hear your trade choice. Wait till you meet the absolute geeks that call them selves avionics techs. You'll get a choice at phase 2 about wether you would like to go avionics (electronics on apache) aircraft( engines and dirty stuff on helos) or electronics tech ( electronics on tanks vehicles radios and anything else the army has). It depends on your results from your trade exams too. Let me know if you want any info on REME or tech stuff phase 2 or basic training stuff. Guy
  2. Awesome mate. Won't be long now. Guy
  3. Really sorry to be one of those people who drop out at the last minute for shit reasons but my misses is ill and I feel really bad leaving her. I'll see you all again soon. Guy
  4. Now there's an idea. Luggage space is tight........
  5. Anyone going. I'm organising a trip with work so there should be about 6 of us going. Guy
  6. Sorry Gary I'm packing light. Just going for the old beer towel this time. Guy
  7. Mine arrived today, just to confirm there's no children coming, it's going to be warm and most people will be that drunk that no-one will remember. Hope so anyway. See you there. Guy
  8. Cheers people. Spending My birthday on a sailing course in the Solent. It's rained constantly since I arrived. Guy

  10. 2nd the tent ~ bar ~ tent ~ bar
  11. Did the coast to coast last year and it was immense. We did it 14 days and stayed in b and bs. We did it at Easter and the weather was fine really we got soaked about twice. The days were fine with the shortest at about 8 miles and the longest about 25. The elevation isn't too bad either. I still have the guide (a bit weathered but totally useable) and all the os maps (8 I think). Let me know if you need a borrow or any questions. I kept a journal cos it was so long and all the days merge into one. Guy
  12. or the kill switch, do you have to engage the clutch to start it? There's a switch in the clutch lever on mine and when it broke it did the same as yours Guy
  13. There was a guy flogging photos but by the time I'd packed the bike up he'd gone. I also had a hi viz vest on so the pics would probs be shite. I did jump on the mountain but only a tiny bit my dad was watching from the bar and he said there was definitely air under my tyre. What's knockhill like, it's a bit closer to me. Guy
  14. Did my first trackday on Thursday at cadwell park and it was immense. Took the bike down in the van and had to set off at 4 in the morning. Got there for 7 and got the bike sorted. Had briefings noise test (passed easy with standerd but got a 2 bros ordered so might have to get a baffle for that). And then the sighting laps with an instructor. Had a 20 min session every hour up until 5. Started off nice and slow and didn't really kick the arse all day with the new bike and that. Buy the end of the day I was getting the hang of the track and my times were coming down nothing special though. Cadwell is a nails track and there's loads of blind entry's to corners so it's such a rush when you get a smooth lap. There was loads of crashes all lads on track/race bikes and all of them were first/ second lap cold tyres stuff. There were brand new rsv4s and a bloke with a matched pair of 1983 125 race bikes and was not much slower than me. Already got my next one planned. I'd recommend it to everyone because it's awesome. There's no pressure to go fast but it does make you want to rag it. Just can't wait to do another Guy
  15. It's a nice run down from jedbrough, just let me know. Guy
  16. Are you going down the east or west. If you go east let me know and I'll meet you in newcastle. Guy
  17. The boys that have taken over me will appreciate anything at all. The address is B Troop, 176 battery, 39 RA op herrick 16 bfpo 792. Cheers Guy
  18. I second that. Lol static lag this and baffles that. Guy
  19. Cheers went out on the new beast yesterday, it was immense. No faster than my old one but much 'tighter'. Got 8 weeks off work now so time to perfect my power rangers look and smash some track days in. Looking forward to smashing some track days in and embarrassing myself at the rally. Guy
  20. Really thanks again, these few days have been a blur of duvets and cocktails but I will make time for Thrash. Guy
  21. Well I got back from Afghan on Friday and it's awesome to be home. I picked up a 2007 ZX-6R in orange while I was on r and r so that's ready to be thrashed. Also a massive thank you to all the forum members who sent me mags and stuff while I was away. That's from the rest of the boys too. I converted quite a few car fans onto two wheels. I'll see everyone at the rally in July but I have 2 months off work now and I fancy a few track days, the Nurnberg-ring and a trip to the IoM. Thanks again Guy
  22. We will have to see about the towel, and as for the costume, better hope its not too cold. Guy PS I fly home in 11 days WOO HOO
