  1. I've watched them in the past and very much enjoyed them,but that's a lot of diesel and not exactly environmentally friendly.
     
  2. Had the pleasure riding into shoreditch to collect my tabbard. This allows me to go for rides whenever I want

  8. Dunno where time has gone today. I seem to have done bugger all and yet it’s now 11.52pm.

    Doing bugger all today has included getting the bikes out on the drive, polishing them and the starting them up, all whilst chatting to my neighbour Slow Dave, who’s bored to hell.

    This afternoon we had a Zoom family quiz for an hour and a half. And the rest of the evening I’ve watched a bit of TV.

    And for the first time since 24th March I’ve not done any exercise. Must do some tomorrow I think.
     
  9. Well i feel better as today i fixed my Hyper, the new clutch pin is pressed in & the whole thing is back together.

    I now have a clutch i can disengage :joy:

    Clean & road test tomorrow

    I’ve taken delivery of my last big thing that I’ve bought over the past few weeks, not easy to deal with when you have a dodgy back and can’t call anyone to come over and help.
     
  11. After my incarceration a little shuffling of the stock has taken place. My eldest son has had designs on my T250 Hustler for a while so as a little gesture as he and his family have been through a rough time his wife a Nurse contracted the dreaded virus a worrying time for all i gifted the Suzuki to him. My youngest Son a self employed sparks back on the Isle of Wight has no work with a second child on its way so i have helped them with their bills for the future, its what we do innit ?

    For my own sanity i have done an exchange for my Hinckley Bonnie with a Meriden Bonnie 1972 Vintage.
    It makes a better stable mate for the 1948 T100.

  19. Sshhhhh. No other fecker turned up, I’ve no idea why:thinkingface: so I had 2 sheep, a ginge, the Nepalese women and a curry all to myself.


    Well I was kinda hoping she was a Nepalese women and not a 3rd sheep coz that local hooch is sure strong. I’m kinda grateful you’ve affirmed my hopes, cheers bud:upyeah::)
     
  20. I wrestled an uprated Anti-Roll bar onto the back of my T5, tried to fir my Goodrich hoses at the same time, but the brake pipe fittings had seized on the pipe.

    Hopefully get some new ones made up Monday
