These guys parked up near my house so I went for a chat. Turns out the one with the trailer had a puncture but they didn’t have the 19mm socket needed to replace the wheel. I obliged and a few minutes later they were on their way. They are a friendly bunch.
I'd to collect some ebay goods from a really nice chap in that rather delightful Loxwood location / property yesterday for my father. The treat afterwards was to take a gander through that motorbike Church's Performance showroom and have a pint or two in the neighouring pub but they couldn't accommodate my very long trailer & L.R ( so apologies @Sev as you're only up the road from there........next time! ) so down to the other one with the canel trips at the rear of the building. Spoke with a couple no-nonsense old school bikers for brief period with the above machine...........£6.80 for a pint.
Read the breaking news Television channels, airports and banks around the world have been knocked offline in a massive outage causing Windows computers to suddenly shut down. A professional was heard to say ‘something super weird is going on’ ! I was trying to buy a box of beer as a delivered gift for a friends birthday but couldn’t get past PayPal security. First world problems!
I'm installing new cam belts on my old trusty ST2. Since I have the MTS950S as a touring locomotive, I've removed all touring related stuff from the ST2, to use it more as a sporty bike. Also installed the carbon fiber silencers, all to keep the neighbours alert!
We've been to Tynemouth and had a fish and chip lunch, a wander on the coast then a pint on the way home. Bliss.
Had a wee blast on the old bird this morning. When did groups of 30 cyclists riding three abreast and not letting cars pass become a thing? Must have ragged it past at least four or five groups of them this morning. Absolutely shite behaviour.
Have you been on Mars for the last 5 years? Ever since Doris changed the highway code its been like this on all B roads in the countryside at the weekends.
Yeh they’re a disease as are the idiots who don’t know how to drive round them safely. I just hadn’t seen so many large groups before blatantly holding up traffic with no regard (or consequence) for anyone else whatsoever. Number one rule of being a lycra nonce I suppose. God forbid you point it out to them though lol.
Took the dB killers out of my 996S and "forgot" to put in my earplugs... went for a ride.. I had an Acoustic Orgasm around 9000 rpm
I always make a point to go via the Waltham abbey tunnel on the m25 when I’m out and about if I can. Not exactly the alps but it’s a good 500 metres of pure Termi Mozart coming out of your pipes if you time it right . Baffles out, obviously.
At a Speedway experience day for my Son, after it was postponed 2 weeks ago. Flattrack practice on the next oval too.
Which track? I tried it at Mildenhall in the dim and distant pass, just realised I need to add my performance there to the Where Have You Crashed thread…
