    You too!

    BTW,is the other KB an active member? If so, I'm gonna change - but would be sad as I've been Killboy for most of my forum career.

    Colnago, Cervelo. :shock: Not sure what you guys consider relatively cheap, but those are two brands well beyond the budget for this build.

    Dude, you *have to* post a pic of that.

    Best not. It's got a flat bar. :P :wink:

    Feck. I searched for posts by author, and no results were shown, so I thought I was in the clear (after it said the nick is already taken) and the member might have been dormant.

    Oh well. Will request it changed.

    As for mine, it will be both a daily ride as well as a winter race bike ;) (there was no way the missus would allow me another bike)quote]

    Even though she forgot your anniversary? A tad harsh surely? :wink:

    He can't play that card. That's not an argument any man can hope to win.
    I could try, but it could mean "withdrawal of privileges" for an indefinite period.

    :D:D:D I slipped into 'sister' mode there as I've been trying to get my brother to give in and buy another road bike even though his missus wouldn't be too happy about it.

    LOL

    When my big sis wants me to do something the missus doesn't agree with, she just phones my missus and it is sorted. Matriachal tendencies... :)

    Problem is now they are best mates and gang up on me. :(

    Hey. i've met 5 radar members last week, not sure exactly who's who.

    Nice to meet you guys, we'll do it again soon......especially when I've actually got a seat on the bike. :shock:

    In my case - Morpeth, Friday evening - plenty of discussion about dodgy cars and importing motorbikes and your unique gaffer taped seatpost! No abuse about you turning the Genesis into a flat bar :lol:
    Faster than a tent.......

    K1LLBOY is fine, it is just the initials. The other KB has Kieran_Burns as user name so no real danger of mixing you up.

    It's just a hill. Get over it.

    Not having grown up in the UK I thankfully missed the Grifter fascination and went straight to having a Mongoose Expert BMX. ;)
