My ex-Halfords child's bicycle is good fun to ride - the combination of my 6'2" frame and its small frame means my centre of gravity is over the front handle bars when braking or going down-hill. This is great for an adrenaline rush when you need to brake, but I am also interested in getting a bicycle that is more adult sized that has thinner tyres and possibly has drop handle bars so that I can go really fast in safety. I don't want to pay more than about £50 or so though, so it must be a second-hand bike and not any old rubbish. What make of bike should I look out for in the local rag?

And after three months riding, you get a free set of "legs of steel".Originally posted by Spacecadet View Post"See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment

Watch for those pesky auction snipers though. It's so unfair that they can bid just before the auction endsOriginally posted by Spacecadet View Post

Second hand (probably nicked) bicycles at an auction site that says they:This lot are going for £1: http://www.bumblebeeauctions.co.uk/X...m.asp?ID=57166We reserve the right to automatically extend this fixed time period by up to 10 minute increments where the highest bid is submitted within 10 minutes before the close of an auction to allow time for responses and final bids.Comment

You'd think they would steal the new ones!Originally posted by swamp View PostThe court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment
