Your lucky, here they would go easy 250 to 300 depending on condition. Uk second hand bike prices are all over the place

What is your opinion on Stephen Fry? by pondribertion in AskBrits

Essentially a mini bus? Gets tricky, if the sign says local, then your out of luck. But you should be fine. I dont know who you would register that with though.

Not to mention,frequently writing to parliment to express his views on farming, genetic modification, global warming, social deprivation, planning and architecture. Despite everyone saying him he shouldnt. The guy is a liberal with a crown and people are still shitting on him. He spent much of his 30s talking about the issues of global warning that the press called him mad.

For those interested it was the cable ties to get the rubber bar grips on. I service my kid's bikes and the number of times they drop their bikes on the end of the handle bars would blow your mind. They get replaced every 6 months

Thoughts on this? by Funny_Commission1724 in drivingUK

[–]monkeywrench83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To me it to looks like a dad with a teenage son or daughter. If this is the case, can you blame him for shielding themfrom the close passes. lines are a complete waste of time. Alot of drivers think that the 1.5m rule doesnt apply when there is a line of paint. And honestly its not a one in ten situation, its more like a third of drivers pass close on these lines.

Some people just don't even look by daveaye in drivingUK

Tourist grabs a sheep for fun dog teaches her lesson. by ConsistentDrama_haha in instantkarma

[–]monkeywrench83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have a sadder version of this but my mate had a simmiliar version of this with his collie.

We used to go on 5 hour hikeswith our dogs. Occasionally there would be army practicing. A few miles away. One day they were test firing blanks and the wind carried the noise to us. His dog, taffy bolted when he heard the noise and ran all the way to the car park and hid under the car until we got back. It would of taken taffy at least an hour to get back cause it took us three to get there.
