I would presume that as someone who is self employed that you are maximising your income streams, I know I do. I deal with large corporations, not sole traders. I wouldn't be advising anyone to get a push bike, in the same way, I wouldn't recommend placing pass the parcel with a grenade. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
statts1976uk Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 That wasn’t the question I was posing to you, as an alleged “self employed” chap don’t you do the most to make yourself tax efficient? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't like cycling, go and post about it in one of the many anti-cycling threads you made. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creating multiple threads would be spamming the website, and it's very important to me to be an excellent, non-intrusive forum member. I’m very surprised that you manage to find the time to get online what with being the “go to” man for the Chief Financial Officers of multi national businesses. “Hold on guys, why are we using the likes of PWC to run our accounts? What I need is a Walter Mitty type character who claims to do 178 miles everyday including Christmas Day and spending at least 4 hours driving covering those miles, he must be able to get a big mortgage on a make believe house but can’t get credit on a car. Make sure he has the ear of influential government ministers! Search Perthshire for this man, look for a clapped out old Kia and someone hiding in bushes filming innocent bystanders for his own personal collection, that will be our man!” Maybe you should set up a thread about why your beloved golf is losing so many participants to cycling, why so many courses are closing down? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbornbairn Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Used it for purely practical stuff today. We live on the top of a hill in the highest part of Stirling so I was away bombing around town getting bread, the wife's prescription and the like. Excellent on the flat - it'll go through about a foot of the powdery stuff but the tyres hold a lot of snow. Didn't like icy ridges so much, the big tyres got deflected easily. Downhills were excellent, just aim for the deep stuff to slow down and it coped with the uphill stuff well so long as you kept moving. Got a lot of smiles and good comments everywhere too. I'm seriously unfit so was peching a fair bit. Someone a bit fitter could throw it around a lot more. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
