"who" has been discussing my shed on msn?

i was whining to dan about needing a shed

[Philbert]

dan wouldn't really be offended by a bit of banter would he! he's a sound bloke

[harris]

guys im back with no probs.
i have had a bad day or 3 and it did touch a nerve just a tad
thats my own fault ,usualy i would laugh along ,i can take stuff on the chin and laugh.
but i had been getting happy with my progress then had a set back yesterday and been a little grumpy.
i feel better today so you can bring the on slaught back on   

i am a greedy sod , but as i cant ride i make up for it in restoring stuff.
so i have been like a stashing squirrel   ..dan   

[YGT]

big love dan, if you were over here today I would have let you tuck into some of my b-day cake.

Dan, sorry you had a bad few days. Im sure your "bad days" would be enough to wipe most of us out all together!

Happy birthday YGT.

[Philbert]

[SaMAlex]

[gary4130]

if anybody wants me to store anything i would gladly help out 
but then how do i explain to the misses 'i'm only storing these for somebody else' 

[teamsano]

alex, can you remember where you got the large slams with the super-g sticker? i'm sure i had a pair like that, with that sticker, but i think tim goldie or someone like that ended up with them..

Sure do Gogo. They were on this bike:



I got it from the US on Ebay. I got a little stung on import charges but selling the cranks and wheels got me some of the money back. I just have the bars, stem and frame (and a few other small parts) left now.

[teamsano]

man, that bike looks pretty rad still.

[SaMAlex]

The frame is a bit of a strange one. Its def a later Dirtbike, what with the U brake and all. The strange thing is it doesnt have a headtube / downtube gusset. The very early dirtbikes (GT made I think) didnt have gussets but I thought they all did after that.

Alex,

I just read the bit in your post that said, "I got a little stung on import charges but selling the cranks and wheels got me some of the money back."
A LITTLE stung? SOME OF the money back? From selling wheels & a crank?
How much did the Customs Nazis sting you for?

[SaMAlex]

I forget (tried to forget) the actual numbers. I think the whole bike was going to cos about £250 all in but it ended up being closer to £400!! I got about £200 back for the cranks and wheels. I sold the Hoffman forks but I cant remember how much for. I also go a bit for the tyres (I think, or maybe a swapped them). If I sold the frame for a fair price I could maybe end up with keeping the bars and stem for a good price. Unfortunately, I have chosen to keep the frame too, so Im well out of pocket! haha.
