This guy is my hero.  If I did not have the responsibility of kids, and family, I would so want to do this.  As it is, someone has to pay for those braces and college and all of that junk.

Another self-gratifying movie about a group of pretentious jerks. I only got to the halfway mark before I had to switch it off, (low tolerance to wankers) so if it improved after that, I apologise...........  ::) 
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Put me off as soon as he started talking #$%*. I think that was 10 seconds in.  :-\
'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Draw and drawer. Could care less/couldn't care less. Bought/brought FFS.

Whats worse is the cost of braces too... Who woulda thunk that it's 5k+ for some braces...Wow. They're really robbing me

Its just nice to see that some guys are willing to get off the beaten path and really do what they want. Its one thing to go and buy your parts from Dime City or wherever and start swapping out some parts for kicks. But when you start fabricating your own parts and piecing together a bike from almost nothing, it's a beautiful thing. Gotta dare to be your own and not just another generic VJM.
