Benders Getting Bloody serious now.

In His never ending quest to go faster, he's just got me to take a hacksaw to a Tectonics fin to create a new Quick weedy.

Where will it all end???

you forgot to mention starwars! which the young bloke is completely hooked on!
many an epic battle between the dark lord (me) and young skywalker(mini me) has taken place in the lounge room this weekend......

have to admit it was better than watching the shockers and for that matter the eagles

Gotta love the force

So to set the record staight!
i picked up a 2nd hand 52cm mirage techy. it has a deep tuttle head so it needed reboxing(german style)

My stash of goldwings and falcons wll never feel the wrath of Elmo's handy/butcher work
