... not a light tour so for the next one I need more boxy panniers to fit the stuff in that I really need, I was borrowing stuff that I couldn't carry even with the tail pack on the back seat and tank bag bulging. One thing you can't say near the Alps is "A GS? How unusual!" the things are ...

Washed 2 weeks of bugs, tar and road grime off the bike and went over it twice first with Muc-off speed polish then again with quick detailer... I even washed the panniers. Then thoroughly cleaned and lubed the chain. Off to the dealer tomorrow to get a quote for a new key as the buttons popped ...

... whole islands electricity coming from a generator. I packed up a tent and a few basics and headed to the ferry, the trip over wasn't so smooth and even though I don't normally suffer I was a little green (puke) (puke) Bearing in mind the island is 3 miles long and about 1/2 a mile wide, I managed ...

You got as far as the singing.!

Fwiw I saw him struggling to even walk normally onto the stage, and quickly decided I had already had too much .

More rules broken. How has even never ended up in prison? His life is a catalogue of law breaking.

They say Boris is intending to form a breakaway Party.

Ridiculous.

He doesn’t recognise a party, even when he’s in one.






It may explain his hasty resignation, just in time to remove the teeth from the Privileges Committee.

... Screw that. That's just a skull fracture waiting to happen. You probably lift 20-25% of your bench press doing this so it's really not that bad. Even starting off, 10kg is really tough. I ended up doing 2x15kg and that was really effing hard and a little bit worrying as you're then squeezing ...

... Then they need to check to see if any of the cables need replacing. They can't process it as a warranty claim. The bike is out of warranty. Even if it wasn't MV have cancelled all dealership contracts so no one can put in a warranty claim. FFS. Insurance write off ?
