So it's like... My Birthday! Well tomorrow anyways (24/11), and I though if Dave gets a topic, then I want one too! So ya, it's my brithday again, I am 21 finally so send me all you money and alcomohols.lol j/k :rolleyes:


For those that care, I went out last weekend to celebrate as the Kona 24hr is on this weekend, saw a cool cover band, drank lots, danced etc... and just generally made a fool of myself as I dont get out much- I did get into a bit of trouble with the missus though for letting my hair down a little too much with another lady :rolleyes: :confused: :rolleyes: Ok I wasn't all that naughty, and it was only a minor relationship offence :p


So anyways I got a few pressies from the family party on Sunday- The missus gave me a new Watch (two tone gold/silver looks cool), and U2's new album, I have ten of their albums now, 3 of their DVD's, so I am a huge fan! I also got quiet abit of cashola and advice for my trip Canada which is getting closer...


No real bike stuff, but I might end up with a Titus RacerX or Santa Cruz Blur frame by the end of the week, as money burns huge holes in my pockets :p I have however got my bike closer to being finished- Kenda Karma's are on the way... check out www.projectx-cul.com (http://www.projectx-cul.com) for the latest photo's :)

Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!! 21... that is awesome.

So a RX eh? Second hand?

Damn you... copying my idea of getting a RX..... Oh well. It will be cool for atleast one of us Aussies to have one, I might be able to ever afford one:(

Oh ye, my Birthday present arrived yesterday! Very very breifly met ozlongboarder, who handed over the present. It was well worth the wait.

Hope you enjoy the kendas. I'm going to roder another set soon with some X9 bits:)

And happy birthday!

Salutations dude, all the best. :D

Good choice on the Canadian steel. ;)

Hey Aaron, Happy 21st man, hope you have a good week and it will be interesting if you end up with a new fully at the end of the week.

I turned 21 earlier in the year - I felt old turning 21, but as they say age is merely a number and nothing more.

Good to hear your a U2 fan. They are due to come next year I think. I am going to go both the Melbourne and Sydney shows - I just cant resist going to 2 or so concerts.

and here I am in envy of all these mtbr veterans with their uber-bikes and huge incomes...and they're the same age as me ?!

happy birthday dude, I look forward to seeing your finished project.

Started on a project of my own, inspired in part by your incredibly PRACTICAL project brief:

hardtail, coil/oil fork, no carbon components, hydraulic discs, must be convertible from XC racer to heavy (ish) duty trail bike with a change of tyres and handlebars only (IE tough rims, one wheelset only). Sub 22lbs in normal XC race form, weight irrelevant in fun bike form.

I can do it on paper for $3500au - we'll see how it turns out !

Happy birthday Aaron!!

Sounds like you had fun some fun anyway :D It's great to see that you're thinking about a new project already..... I've loved following the progression of your Cove build.

I'm sure ProjectX-cul has inspired many riders.... I've got a fair few ideas from you thats for sure...

Hope you have a great year.

Cheers, Dave.

I love U2, I think I am a big fan of is basicly how they re-invent themselfs as a band, and their style of music with every album... God I wish I was kicking around in the Zoo TV era though, Them concerts look cool (especially the indoor tour)...


Others good to hear I am inspiring people, to be honest I was unsure people really cared, but it's nice to know that I am aiding some... It's also cool when people come upto you at a race meet and start asking questions :-)
