    Plus postage.




    Same kit is 13 quid on Ebay.
    Bought it before and have used it twice so far

    I don't see it on ebay for 13 quid today, but yeah, with P&P you could get it for about €20 or so...which is even better.

    Good to know. When I bought mine years ago, these weren't around at that price.

    Great value helmet in cotters at the moment if anyone is interested.
    Basically this:

    Only problem is, it's yellow. But only €80.

    I should have specified, it's luminous yellow! Not just yellow. Still, great lid for the money

    Compression gear and ski socks in Lidl today,but flying off the shelves,as everyone wants them.
    12 euro each for the top and the leggings.

    Grand job for the biking in colder times.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,936 ✭✭✭stewygriffin


    Same compression in Aldi stores aswell at the moment,same price as Lidl too

    Btw lads I picked up some lovely underwear (similar to above) in Dealz.. €5 for the bottoms, €5 for the top. They're full length and I've worn them today, super stuff for the price.

    They're marked down as training wear, I actually bought them for jogging through the winter, but thye're fantastic under the m'bike gear today.

    Any Black Friday deals on the go yet?
    Waiting on sportsbike shop, they usually have a discount code
    F.C.-moto should have one starting around 7 aswell I believe


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,882 ✭✭✭frozenfrozen

  • Registered Users Posts: 7,882 ✭✭✭frozenfrozen


    BLACK15FCM fc-moto discount ...15% off.. hopefully it stacks with their normal 10% off?


  • Registered Users Posts: 61 ✭✭Grumpy Bike Wizard

    What an awful time to broke, was hoping to pick up some nice warm gloves and maybe some hand guards for the bike to try and cut down on the wind chill.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,882 ✭✭✭frozenfrozen


    aw lads I got so excited, went on motostrorm.it found alpinestars track pants for around 333 euro, got a 20 euro off orders over 200 euro code.. then they drop the bomb on live chat that discount codes aren't allowed during black friday.

    still a good price but I think I'd be safer off buying from sportsbikeshop or motorcycleshop.ie (surprisingly both within 50 cent of eachother for these pants) in case I have to send them back for sizing etc..

    they seem to have lots of stuff very cheap though, I've never heard of them before..

    Motorcycle Live in the NEC,on till this Sunday

    Heaps of bargains to be had.

    Cash is king and haggle hard too.:)

    Edit to say that the ATM machines in Birmingham Airport and the NEC will fleece you.
    Alot of the traders and vendors have mobile card machines.
    So either pay with your card or bring cash.

    4 of us went over yesterday morning,and the Ryanair flight home yesterday evening looked more like a motorcycle shop than a plane,that many people with that much bike gear was on board.:D

    Did you buy the Hayden one stewey?
    I have this one
    2092er4.jpg

    My first Arai was in 1994.
    My girlfriend at the time went halves with me for my birthday.
    Only had it a month and after going on the lash one night and getting a taxi home she said she'd carry it as we got out of the taxi.
    She got out and hopped it straight off a pebble dash wall.
    Took a nice chunk out of it.
    I was cracking but sure what could I say?:mad:

  • Registered Users Posts: 7,882 ✭✭✭frozenfrozen


    when you attach them like you are at the moment they show up in that manage attachment window

    and it has a list like current attachments
    picture.jpg
    picture2.jpg

    right click one of them and do copy link address, then put that link inside tag

    Lads,how the hell do I get my picture to show,like Blade has his picture?

    Im terrible at this PC crap.:pac::o

    Here's the most basic method of doing it from scratch - it assumes that you've gotten the pic from your phone to your PC desktop via upload, download or by emailing yourself the pic and saving the pic from your email to your desktop or another folder. There are other methods but they involve the pic being saved online elsewhere, basically.

    - Hit reply. Write whatever text you'd like to appear with your pic. When you're done writing...

    - Scroll right down past the text pane and you'll see a dark blue "Manage Attachments" button. Hit it and it brings up a miniature window.

    - In that window there's a grey button on the top left. Hit this and a pop up screen allows you to search your computer - scroll and find "desktop". Scroll through until you find the pic you saved earlier.

    - When you find the pic, double click on the pic. This closes everything except the "Manage Attachments" screen - you will see the "Choose File" button now has the name of your pic next to it.

    - Now maximise the "manage attachments" screen and you can see the "Upload" button the right hand side - hit this button and the pic uploads. After a second, a new line of text appears under "Current Attachments" which is your pic. Click on the text. This opens a new browser window and shows your pic. Go to the URL at the top of the page and copy it.

    - Go back to the original topic reply screen and find the button at the top called "Insert Image" and hit it. This opens a new pop up that asks for a URL. Paste the URL and click "OK".


    See. Totally intuitive.

    EDIT: I've just realised you can attach them okay but since I can't be arsed editing all the above.
