Sofa..?? Hell, I can barely get out of bed.

20-mile road ride on my MTB planned for this morning....which might be interesting, as my right hip has been bugging me on even the shortest rides for about a week.

... Seems to be fixed (y) I've just slept through the snow up in Doncaster, woke up to people chatting about how everything had gone to hell on the roads, looked out to a clear road :D Will see if it comes back tonight whilst I'm driving my lorry.

I got the jet wash out and hayve the SX a quick blast with degreaser then shampoo. Dry it then wheel it back in to the garage. We could do with some decent rain to wash the road salt away.

Similar issue, irresponsible dog owner. Young Beagle down the road from us is never contained in the yard. Constantly wanders. I was walking her for a couple of months because I felt bad for her (with owners permission) but haven’t had the time lately. ...

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

Took both bikes out! My 21 yr old nephew and I took the Thruxton and the Multi out to a pub for lunch via a great road that is one of my favourites in the area. Had some great weather as well. Plan was for him to start if on the multi then ride the Thruxton back. But seems they ...

We have a resident bearded dragon at home, he seems to roam a fair bit so I couldn’t imagine him in a tank though I know they are popular as pets.

I’ve had to chase the dickhead off the road a few times when he’s decided that’s a good place to sun himself

Escaping the fog, we met at Skipton and headed up towards Cumbria where the forecast was sunny and soon were enjoying 15°c and dry roads by Devil's Bridge / Kirkby Lonsdale and on the back roads up to the A6 through Shap at speeds my little XR has never seen before :x but with Sergio's ...

Re: Track Tyres

A sporty road tyre should be ideal IMO. They'll warm up pretty quick out on track and they're good at keeping the heat, but they're designed for European weather so should be better suited.

I have no idea how quick you are. I've heard fast riders say that the m7rr limits can be found on track.

I still can’t believe 4 wheel motorcycles are allowed on public roads in UK. NZ and Aussie they can only be used on private land. I don’t see any need for them to be on the roads I agree..... legal or not, I just can't see any practical purpose on a public ...
