I was made redundant recently and have taken up a new direction "Plastic Roof Welding". In order for me to carry my tools about I have to get myself a van & tools. the only way I'm gonna do this is to sell my bike (needs must when the devil vomits in your kettle - Black Adder)

Once I'm back on my feet I'll be getting another... fare the well folks!

Sorry to hear this, hope it's a short time until you can get back on 2 wheels and hope it's Triumph again when you do. Good luck and no need to leave.

Blimey Nick sorry to hear about this mate.

Hopefully, just like Simon it is a small blip and you'll be back on two wheels soon.

Keep on coming on here mate and I hope everything goes well.

Thanks guys.... yeh I'll stick around here no worries. I'm defo gonna get another BA because I have BA.com badges everywhere. And I love triumph

Plastic Roof Welding involves sealing to pieces of membrane together with a heat gun (which has cost me £400!!). Every single Tesco has this type of roofing system.

So, do you want us to lob a brick or something onto the roof of Tesco everytime we go there? Might drum up some business??

Would we still get clubcard points for that?

Hey forget the van.... just add a side car or a trailer, then you can keep the bike AND get to ride EVERYDAY!!! Just a thought

Good luck on the new business!
