    No :cry:

    Near the end of Halo 3 yesterday and I got '3 Red Lights' on my console which isn't good to have on the Xbox - so had to disconnect it to send back to microsoft tomorrow so that I can be sent a new replacement - only had it a year

    So may go and watch the carling cup final later instead.... :D

    Was going to go for a ride, but I'm coughing my lungs up so giving it a miss. Bit of work needs doing before tomorrow, and it's Sunday so house roast later on. Got to remember to marinate my beef for steak and ale pie tomorrow too. Very fun day planned as you can see!

    Did a night orienteering event last night (very happy with my accurate map reading for most of course 8) ) & orienteering at a league competition this morning too - now absolutely shattered!!! Night event was great fun - first one I have ever done tho club continues training all winter despite dark nights.

    Day off tomorrow so plan to put some miles on the bike - easy route I think tho!! :lol:

    :cry: thought you were ignoring you. the thread even had your name in the title!
    its arrived though :D. 07 version i think as its not got adjustable travel like my alpine did. need new bushings too as mine don't fit. which is a bummer, bloomin £20!

    Sorry Dude - must have missed it :cry: - will be a newer version than mine if its the 07.

    Great bike but extremely high BB but not in a bad way - has it turned up yet?

    Nice one :D

    yeah the graphics confused me at first as I've been perving at yours to get myself ready and i stood there thinking - eh? it says attack trail but it looks different.
    couple of things i've noticed.
    *no adjustable travel* - on yours and my 06 marin alpine trail (pretty much the same as your current attack) you could change from 4" to 6 " with the QR. This has one set position but has an adjustable pivot at the bottom to change the geometry, I remember someone telling me that at some point.
    also the seat tube has some altered metal work going on.
    ever so exciting. its on my bed at the moment - as i was trying to sort bushings out! no other reason i swear :( ha ha.
    can't wait to build it up. gonna have to treat it to new brakes i think or something special :)
