Haha I still remember the first time I went out on an enduro ride, I don't think I've ever inhaled as much caffeine in my life trying to stay awake on that drive home! I could barely move the next day!

...it still amazes me I keep going back for more!! Very Happy

Well.. I've managed to trade a van lift off a friend for a play on the bike this weekend, so the bike will definitely be moving home!!

I do have to admit though.. I think I more excited that the move will 'force' me to now buy all my own tools! Very Happy Very Happy
Time to start making a list! (let me know if anyone has any recommendations!)

The only bad thing is next weekend is valentines, so I wont get a change to join all you guys till the 20th-21st!

Halfords sockets sets are good tools for the money.

Cheers for the offer Gareth, but I think I'm ok for sockets! I've had a rummage and made a list of what I have so far..

Halfords Advanced 3/8:
Socket set 7 - 19 (missing no.6!)
Torx 10, 20, 27, 30, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60
Series of 3/8 Philips & flat heads
+Mix of standard rusty Allen keys

I'm thinking a set of spanners and a new full set of 3/8 Allen key heads should be ok to begin with??
