Title: my new wtp envy 2012.
Post by: dubber on April 20, 2012, 04:33 PM

long story...ive been looking for a newschool for a few months,maybe more but didnt really have the funds, fugazi was gonna build me one but at the time i didnt really have the money and had some family issues as my dad was quite ill and had to have a quadruple heart by-pass and it was down to me to take the family the 70 mile round trip every day for 3 weeks..financially and emotionally draining, wasnt nice seeing him like that..
anyway my dad is now well and gone back to work although not as many hours and is going to retire in february on his 65th birthday..
he didnt tell anyone but he had a critical illness insurance which paid him out a nice lump sum, he's finished off his mortgage,bought himself a car (ford fusion) paid my mums credit card (6k :shocked:) and has a few quid in the bank, he knew i was after a new bike, so he kindly gave me £600 towards this bike, so i only had a bit to pay..
thanks dad. :daumenhoch:

odyssey GTX-R gyro and odyssey cables
odyssey evo II brake
odi longneck grips
odyssey m2 lever
eclat gonzo seat
eclat escape 2.3 tanwall tyres
