So ive been searching for a van that i can kit out for living in for a while to get my costs down and i think i have found the right one. Its all ready kitted, beds,storage, fitted wood burner and most important a full mot. and have space to park me bike.

Well on July 14th this year I was deferred from the British army due to medical "problems" now if anyone here has any ideas I cannot join until 18 due to the two year deferral since that's due to asthma being declared on my record. The other is a allergic reaction to aspartame it's used as a sweetener (before this it was used as a nerve agent in the Vietnam war) now does anyone know how I could go about having this removed or overlooked on my medical file NOTE: I no longer have problems with this but we aren't aware how we can prove this Cheers guys

Got knocked off FIVE DOORS FROM MY HOUSE! Pretty much was tailing (at a safe distance) a chelsea tractor drivern by two old people (if you don't know what a chelsea tractor is - it's a shiny new land rover driven by people with no land and a house in chelsea!). Pretty much they pulled over to the left, I assumed they were stopping. I went round the right of them, just as he attempted to swing into his driveway, causing me to swerve into the curb, the bike to hit a wall, and me to go skidding down the pavement. I'm cut and grazed, but the bike still works, with a few dings and scratches. I'm not sure if I have a claim or not. Anyway, when I got in I rung my old man. …

Hi Im Jordan , been on here a few months now ! but still fairly new to biking ..... and sad to say it had my fair share of problems ! I've done allot of work myself and after a whole lot of time , money and graft its finally running ( and road legal ) ! However, I think its firing too early , there's a weird noise coming from the engine ( almost like a rattling noise ) this happens stationary and in neutral so im sure its not chain or gear box etc .... also the performance is piss poor ! Its struggles on the slightest of hills ! Iv finally made the decision to give her over to a mechanic to do a service/tune and to try and sort out the "pre-firing". I am new to th…

The bikes in the garage! nice and dry,ones in the living room even dryer, bikes in the wooden shed! nice and usually covered in condensation(in proper cold) used a oil filled radiator still got wet, last winter left um without heater still did it, shed has ventilation and is water tight. My fear of the eight legged critters far out weigh the possibility of using covers( I am a girl) have heard containers of salt but the thought of salt does not ring true(salt/corrosion). It never really creates any major headaches(yet) just wish it would't do it poor bikes!!! Any fantastic ideas out there??
