    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    it’s a play on words/ double entendre i’ve wanted to use ever since the Snow Ride 😆

    see Gob70 is about 5’10” and would weigh in at 90kg absolute max and his brother is John and is about 6’2″ and about 120kg.

    just my Klingon sense of humour

    Gob is a bit taller than me so he would be a dash under 6’3″ as i’m 6’2″. Shits me how you cant fatten a thouroughbred with the amount of crap he eats.

    Or and i know i will stand alone on this one and maybe even have my account taken away but just don’t drink at all.

    My motto is “i’m silly enough with out adding alchol to the mix”

    Sorry if your all getting up off the floors from laughing at me but hey thats life :silly:

    Your not alone.

    I gave up drinking almost four years ago for a lifstyle choice. Heavy binge drinker where a slab was downed in an arvo session but becoming a father changed my way of thinking. That and the thought of waking up to a young one with a hangover.

    The first couple of months were weird and at time tough because i would do stuff that used to required a beer in hand to complete but now i dont miss it one bit. Next project is the gaspas.

    I’m up for this one for sure.

    If theres no prize at least braging rights, oh and also all the models swarming over you. :blush:

    Starting weight of 131 kgs with a goal weight of 110. Even when i was 20, super fit and playing top grade footy my weight was 100 kgs with 9% fat, so i think for my age 110 is acheivable.

    Although if you go by all the weight charts my ideal weight is 85kg. Never gunna happen. Maybe when i was 14.

    Good luck everyone.

    My advise.

    Finish your apprenticship before anything else. I done my fitter trade (no welding jokes Gob or Menace) and then went to Kalgoorlie. The first place i went to asked when i could start. $32 an hour plus extras. Not bad for a young bloke over fifteen years ago. Only thing to keep in mind is the cost of living in these places is out of control. eg a four bedroom 2 bathroom house started at over a grand a week.

    But your young, get the apprenticship out of the way while saving some coin, then load the car and set off to the unknown. Last bit of advise would be to do it on your own, friend or girlfriends dont last long in these places.

    Thanks for your concern Bollocks.

    But we’ll keep this to ourselves and if anyone does happen to mention it later I’ll just play dumb and tell the missus that this is a site set up so all the unstable weirdo’s could chat online and stay off the street.

    you could actually go and get some more grease put 5 test patches on the floor and do some product reviews for us and tell us what works best i’m still backing the omo but preen and napisan would be a goer

    and scrub shit out of it dabbing for girls

    Your a helpfull twat arnt ya Bob.

    Preen and napisan seemed to work. Very faint marks but you have to look hard to see them, I think i got away with it. Helps not having pale carpet. Phew.

    As a last resort i’ll give it a go otherwise i may as well take the seat of the bike as i wont need it for a long time. Off now to try Mr Blues sugestion about the carpet.

    Light bulb just gone off above the head.

    “Sorry luv, the young bloke got into the shed while i wasnt looking. Oh look he must have stood in some grease and walked it through the house. Bad bad boy. I dont think we should punish him though as it was my fault for leaving the shed open” :dry: :dry:

    If it has a nipple from the factory, chances are it is s’posed to be greaes until fresh grease is spotted.

    Prewash spray like “Preen” and napisan afterwards diluted in warm water with a cloth and scrubber may help you with the carpet, been there and lived to tell the tail……. but tail was sore :huh:

    Is it good if grease comes out of the joins or is it bad because it means i have broken a seal ? ]Its good as it helps flush the water/dirt out of the grease in there but it does stretch the seal, I reckon if you put a couple of pumps in after every wash or wet ride you on a good thing

    Also how the f&*k can i clean the carpet, before the wifey gets home, of grease marks i walked through the house ? Run Forest Run !!

    TB

    At least I dont have to worry about the bike then.

    I can tell you windex doesnt work on the carpet but at least now i’ve smeared it in enough that if i put the coffe table over it no-one will notice.

    Coffee table didnt work. I’m gone.

    The tracks were sign posted last year with proposed closures but the signs and barrier tape were either torn down or removed by DSE, i’m not sure which. There is no defanite time frame but I would say sooner rather than later. Read more on the web site http://www.dse.vic.gov.au/forests

    Looks like were gunna have to enjoy Paddy’s while we can. The DSE are proposing closing the S/T down and restricting riding to gazetted roads and fire trails. :(
