Hey,
I'm new to this forum, have been lurking for ages so thought I'd best say hi!
I'm not new to biking though, have spent quite a bit of time working in the industry, working for Giant UK as well as cutting my teeth at good old Halfords :oops:
Anyway, I now do it as more of a hobby than a living, I currently ride an 06 Giant XTC EX, which is more of a daily hack, and I'm in the process of breathing life back into a 99 Specialized FSR Comp (the A1 silver and yellow one!). I had one a few years ago and stupidly sold it, so I got hold of another one and I'm in the process of bringing it back to its former glory!
As well as bikes, I'm into cars too - my weekend toy is a 1978 Mini Clubman into which I've fitted a 1.6 C16SE Vauxhall engine, and my daily driver (when I'm not on the bike) is a 1992 Polo GT into which I've fitted the ABD engine from a Mk3 Golf - I like small cars with powerful engines
Its good to find what looks like a decent forum, I've got some bits to sell and some stuff to buy, and I'm looking forward to talking to you all!
Thanks for reading, sorry about the essay :roll:
