gummibear Posted May 19, 2010 Share I went to a shop close to me this afternoon and there was this Trek getting built.Turns out the rider is 15 years old and he is getting it for his 16th birthday.I wish i would get pressies like this. I got a surfboard for my 16th. Ps this bike really looks awsome when you see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no calves Posted May 19, 2010 Share so wat is he getting for his 18th and 21st???????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildroadie Posted May 19, 2010 Share Get that at 16 - without paying for it yourself - what do you have to aspire to in 10 or 20 years time! More money than sense in my opinion on the parents part (sorry if you're the parent)! (And those aren't junior gears fitted to it so the recipient can't race it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
