I use Arsebook to talk shite on with mates and family Ant :smile: Most if not all great poster's in tech stuff and banter race posters have moved on ............ so it's not the same and i do get bored. Ant join the up and coming Ducati Corse forum and see you in the motogp section for some pre race thoughts! we just need Damodeci to join in and it will be like the old days, could be even better if stoner come's out of retirement as he's shite a V8 racing LOL
For gods sake dont talk about bikes! You'll get lambasted If its lounge and thread clearly a pub debate or dating forum thread you dont have to open it. Its when it descends from a 'how do I....' Into 'search for yer feckin self' or 'cock..tits...arse' thread that it can be a tad testing (accepting I occasionally join in..)
I Don't....... But there lies the problem, for me. I used to browse the forum for a few hours a day, now by the time I've filtered out the threads 'I don't have to open' I'm done in a few minutes. Bikes are not the only thing in my life, but that was the main reason I came here, so unfortunately that's the main thing I want to read....don't get me wrong I like a laugh along the way...but I remember there being an 'off topic issue that would detract from the nature of the forum' which was requested to stop. I'm off to carry out my exciting tasks that pay my mortgage now.....I'll tell you all about it when I get home ;-)
So why don't those of you who are moaning about there not being enough bike-related threads....start a thread about bikes..? Ain't rocket science.
Hi Anth, where ya been? I still like this forum and spend too much time snorting about on it and sharing my woes. The lounge is full of pseudo brainiacs IMO. I can read ~ 2 lines of some poster's posts/essays then my mind wanders off to my happy place....Not interested if some self congratulatory tool speaks 19 languages and their pig latin is a bit rusty... Go find somewhere else to bray on...:smile:
Hi Viv.... There's not to many A/B roads in the North Sea Viv....actually there's no roads when I think about it. ;-) Hi Gaz, Been around....mainly falling off trails bikes, rebuilding a WR 426 and playing on my drz in between carrying PA systems and light rigs around for the daughter. Managed to get to the Assen GP. Did I mention the great video conference call I had at work? ;-)
Did I mention the great video conference call I had at work? ;-) Was it all about the intricacies of the desmodromic valve setting ? if not don't say another word.
Should we even be discussing desmodromic valve settings here on a bike forum? I'm not sure it's appropriate.
I was going to this evening but Oxford where I live is a nightmare on a Friday night, especially fist day of School holidays, the A40 has been blocked because some poor soul on a BMW motorcycle has been involved in a nasty accident, hope he's OK. in to my third beer now, so this evening's hooning is cancelled!
