    I have recently managed to gain weight no it was mainly altering my diet. Porridge and toast and a 500cal protein shake for breakfast 10.30 4x pieces of brown bread and beans. 12.30 chicken breast, 150g rice, 100g veg and one slice of bred 1400 bannax2 orange and protein shake (post exercise) 1630 chicken breast, veg and rice and Bread. Weights at the gym followed by a banana and 500cal protein shake 1800 4x bread and cottage cheese. 2100 4 scrammbeled eggs. Took me agers to tune my diet to out on weight as I am constantly doing exercise (in the military) and only have a George Forman microwave and toaster to cook with! Still I am only now 70kg but was 66kg beginning of jan
  3. Seen as my job is geography based I should have a reasonable and slightly accurate answer, however I have decided to 'just decide' we are going to have a cracking summer!
  4. If its on the weekend after april 14th I could. If before, weather permitting, weekend I can do. Wont be able to request single days off untill I start my new posting unfortinatly.
  5. Awsome! Just bought a bike, back in the game buzzing!
  6. I used to wear Kevlar jacket and trousers, make was Richa. Really good and around £230 for the set I think. Still got them and will wear them on my new bike. Seen as I am no longer commuting I will probably use Kevlar jeans/jacket combo but for commuting was grateful for warm, dry kit. Was easy to change when I got to work, slip it off, hang it up, work slip it back on. I didn't think it looked to baggy. I think anything with armour in it makes you look a bit....different.... but hey, you have a bike....so you are cool anyway, just safe!
  7. The idiot driving the hgv down a country lane (just enough room for 2 cars) who decided not to slow down and bully me into the side which was all floods and onto the embankment where there was no traction.....cheers for making my white car now muddy....
  8. Awsome, had a year and a half off but getting a bike next few weeks. I am quite looking forward to the move! Seems like there are a few from here! Also, will be going to the rally, so knowing a few faces/names is good
  9. Honda jazz.....sports addition (makes no difference) lol
  10. And it's in wyton! Will be moving this end in about a month or so! Will defo have a bike by then and will know no one! Anyone fancy showing me the roads when I get there, I would be grateful. Just thought I would let you know of the location change!
  11. will be going on 4 wheels but might do a spot of more bike shopping, depends which shops stay open on a sunday or not.
  12. I am always to much of a wimp to just hop my leg over. I look quite young for 25 and if they do approach me most ask my age and if i have a license. This might be the normal thing to do but i always get asked but only ever held a full license. Also, I did notice when I am quite smartly dressed i get spoken to or if I am with a girl.....maybe they think your just going to throw your cash at them to show off
  13. Went into the megastore, in swindon today. Correct me if I am wrong but this used to be gorge whites I think. Anyway, they had loads of stock, but no one ever asked me if I wanted help, and when I asked about a gsxr I got a one word answer of a shrug! This would be the only time I would try something on and buy elsewhere! Even with bikes, I noticed today looking at gsxr the man was quite helpful, Kawasaki completely ignored me, as did yamaha, Honda told me to wait until march...(.all I was asking was what do they have to offer at the moment). But the kind gent in triumph just ended up chatting to me for about an hour about anything and everything. Even though if I do end up buying a bike from him it may well be 1-2 or maybe 300 quid more, he was the one who managed to grab my attention and there was no pressure etc... Sorry if this went off topic, but I am all for saving money, but I appreciate the art of a salesman and someone spending time and sharing knowledge... Just found every showroom so different today, was surprised.
  14. When I did my cat C + E I hit some road works at a roundabout. A car let me through but I had to wait and co firm with the examiner. He then put me down as a minor for hesitancy as I talked through him. There was no point arguing but I was under the same impression that if they flash you still had to wait! We got told constantly it's all to do with how the examiner sees the situation, not you. I guess in this case I did the wrong thing by him by asking/explaining!
  15. And I have the weekend off to do abit of bike browsing....brilliant! Also, my camp is currently home to about 80+ more bods who are living in the gym filling sand bags everyday and staging on people's houses who have had to move (stop looters). I do not envy the straw they drew!
  16. All down hill from now, look forward to congratulating you on the 4th of March
  17. I get awful nerves on tests like this. I too took a fair few attempts at mod1. What my instructor did was book test 3 and test 4 for a few days later. That way I was not under pressure to pass. He also took me out for a ride before hand and went for food and then told me my test was earlier than he said and we had to race back, there was no waiting in that god forsaken room. Probably all psychological but worked very very well. I passed mod 2 first time just because you can relax a bit more and got time for nerves to calm down!
  18. when you go to space you get a little bit of velcro in your helmet so you can scratch your nose. Maybe invent somthing like this?! drgons den eat your heart out
  19. I am awful at making up usernames and when I joined this site I was into WoW in a big way. One of my characters on that was called dispersion, mainly because it sounded quite magical.... Ok it was a long time ago and much has changed, though I still use dispersion when signing up of stuff online like this....maybe I should think of a new one... My names gareth but it always seems to get taken!
  20. ...and this is why I love reading posts in this forum. Genuine people helping others. Good work on the bike, looking forward to the next installments!
  21. Got 75% in a 2 hour terrain analysis test. And also only 6 weeks left of thhis god damn 44 week course. (Not counting all the admin days and an exercise I have to go on). And my misses bought me some lovely presents for my birthday along with a home made cake which made my day!
