I live in Cobham! Thay have just put a skate park in the area. I went there not so long ago and met a rider called BEN. Apparently he injured his leg recently and had to have pins in it. I saw him on Sunday and he said that he had a mate who had a Torker and he thought of me to sell it to but he didnt have my number. He said he ended up ebaying it. And here it is. What a small world!

Post by: munners on December 07, 2007, 08:45 PM: Post codes were put on frames in our area because bikes were always getting nicked around here. Woking cycles and Waldens in Kingston encouraged it on advice of the local police! If you look on that map i live on Stoke Road. Its the same road that Chelsea FC train at! MAD!
