Re: What are you doing today ??

That's badass!! Did the same thing both at St. James' Park and at Angel Stadium several years ago....walked on the pitch, the locker rooms etc.
What struck me was the attention to detail and pride the locker-room guys take in their work...they're meticulous.

Done some serious talking/thinking about where we would like to be in 10 years time.

The UK is currently very low on the list but unfortunately that is where we are now. :(

Re: Bikers incriminate themselves with helmet cams

LOL......poor Donald!!


It goes both ways I suppose...there was a well publicized incident locally a few years ago where a driver claimed a rider caused her wreck with his car....her footage proved otherwise and the guy ended up getting 6 months for it.

It has become common place in recent years for people to slate the Police for all sorts of reasons. Well, for once I am going to counter that and say well done to them for a job well done. My daughter is studying forensic science at Bournemouth ...

Re: Ascension Island

I was there a few years ago, but as you say, only there for a couple of hours on the way to the Falklands.
It was midnight and we couldn't leave the departure "cage".

Nice and warm though!

Re: 1299s or 1199R

Wouldn't say bored as the zx10r is a great bike. But I fancy a change at end of season as I will have had it 2 years by then and there's plenty of other bikes I want to enjoy owning / experiencing.

Also I can sell it with 12 months full Kawasaki warranty remaining which should help any sale.
