A while back I was in a Honda Civic that was t-boned by a Toyota Yaris. There was no winners that day, but the Yaris certainly looked worse for wear.

There's a story of a panel beater with a late model BMW that reversed into 2 concrete garden gnomes, he replaced the bumper bar and bumper stiffener behind it, the stiffener helps the body alignment and when he undid it and replaced it, the body alignment became out and effected the operations of the transponders for the reversing and lane changing, it took a few shops and about $7000 to find the problem.

I understand the bit about the gnomes...

Even the last commodes had to get reverse and inpending danger sensors recalibrated after repairs. #1 was mucked around royally for a few weeks while this was done, redone, redone etc all after some nice chap in Toowoomba drove his bullbar into the side of the car while it was parked in town. Centre park so either the front swung around in reverse or he was even more useless and hit the car going in. Whole new rear section.

The recalibration was done in 3 different shops, even BMW gave it a go and it would fail after 2 days.

Picked up this little beauty yesterday, mongoose hard luck. It has 150mm dropouts, hoe could you not love that. Probably going to use the parts and rebuild the mongoose with some older parts.
It seems to be working ok and will only need a tube to be semi ridable. The brakes need replacing but does that really matter.
Enjoy the awesomeness of a middish school freeride hardtail.
