Bought for the princely sum of £50 , I present to you the pikey version of a race motorhome
open sesameeeeeeeeeeeee
I'd like to thank the people who made this possible, Mr Hankinyong from the caravan showroom, my sister for her spare roof joists, Mr B&Q for his cheap and shit playwood pannels, and lastly my mam and dad for having the pile of shit parked out the back of their posh bungalow
Only 1 small problem , it won't fit out the carport. You have to take the wheels off and drag it

*slight technical oversite*

I saw the first pic and thought, that needs a bike door, I scrolled down, low and behold.........

As for taking the wheels off....can't you let the tyres down instead

Havent been able to log in for oooooooh ages , so am spamming the forum before i have to go to work (at 11.30am

)
Took it to rockingham, 1 bike in van, 1 in caravan. Forgot I had to stop it rolling so thats what the car ramp is screwed through my (free) lamitate floor is.
Pee-d down all night but I was wubberly and warm, unlike the others who slept in the draughty pit garages
Arrived far too early ( 4pm for 8.30am start doh) but they let us in anyway. Just us and the cleaners
For tea we went to supermarket for a crate of fosters and john smiths. Oh and some food to wash it down with and fired up the barby. Still warm at 9pm. (notice my fellow motorhome companion, who parked as far away from my pile of shit as he could)
Really enjoyed the day, not what i was expecting. I was expecting a totally flat infield with a giggle down the banking, but its actually got a few elevation changes and a blind crest aswell.
Mind you, I fucked the pfm iron discs i paid £200 for, how was i supposed to know you had to use certain pads

I left OEM pads in and they are harder than the disc surface. Discs now look like an old '33 vinyl record ffs
Hmmm maybe this should have been in trackdays, doh. Fear the pikeyvan!
