Haven't see it, but my mate was telling me about one he'd seen at the show the other day.

It's gotta be this one and he was right. It is bloody good.

Sheesh! I send Yodie a load of piccies to upload onto MY site & he nicks 'em for himself! Hope that means they're gonna be on my site too when I go & have a look mate! ;) Sending you another couple of discs later today.
MY Chop & Rod piccies are better than HIS by the way -if he pulls his finger out & posts 'em for me! :mad: :)

Oh Dear, I see the Sharing Fairy never waved his wand over you in the school playground now did he!

Come to think of it, thats probably because he was banged up for indecent exposure!

I don't lilke trikes. I certainly don't like car engines ones with car derived steering.

Trikes are OK for raspberrys though.

I don't lilke trikes. I certainly don't like car engines ones with car derived steering..I can see that 'Disliking Trikes' is sufficiently important enough in your life for you to have contemplated and developed a two-tier system of marking.

1. Dont Like
2. Certainly Don't Like

I admire that level of commitment!

That's Mike Lewis' hillclimber isn't it? - he lives out Welsh way, but he didn't build that trike. That was built by a guy down in the West Country.

If I didn't live in the mddle of London with no garage I'd have a trike in a heartbeat... especially the trikes on here, they're sharp enough to shave with.. Trouble is I dont have the skills to build something like that, not even using Lego, Oh well... Just have to save a shedload of pennies and hire it done:)
