    Not sure why i got the LG thing but way before any LG stuff had come up and Ed had just got his sponsorship i offered switch to LG and buy all my air con units through him so it showed his sponsors he was earning his keep, there was no motive behind it for me just that i saw LG were doing a good thing and i wanted to help ed out, the favour has been returned tenfold....
    Hahaa I was actually thinking of asking Ed if he thought LG might like a free rider with bike, no strings attached.........................I just wanna be in your tent lol............nothing to do with any Brolly dollies, the Missus might get katty

    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    My idea was to offer "Free signage" on my bike etc......Free sponsorship if ya like.

    I think I've got a reasonable record in my short racing career, and try to be proffesional..................I did say try Eddie!

    The way I see it is if I can do something for someone then maybe one day the favour may come back.
    Hmm,If only you rode Bears. Far better pit tent to hang out in too
