I sincerely hope we don't have a war!

I'm hearing from all quarters that Cv19's coming back in numbers Tuffers, hope you shrug this off soon mate. For interests sake, can I ask if you had the full set of government funded Microsoft chip implants.? (aka Vaccine schedule ;) ) ? I had it about 5 weeks ago. Not very pleasant. I get the fee...

Might get some of those auxiliary lights for my V4 Multi, not least because the Ducati ones are made by Rizoma.

Are yours genuine BMW ones, Stonesie?

Good news.

Happy birthday Mr Monty.

No thanks. The single sided swingarm couldn't cope with the torque of the 1290, it always wheelied toward the central reservation!! I was listening to Chaz Davies a few months ago who is heavily involved in helping Ducati develop the V4 Panigale as an endurance racer. He said at the Le Mans 24 hour...

Sounds like BMW should be employing you to sort out their F ups!

Enjoy. They sell well for a reason.

Government should be investing in clean cheap public transport for urban areas, not building new roads.
Then you make motoring expensive in urban areas.

Also vehicles that pollute more should be taxed more both on new prices and annual road tax.

Thanks all. Birthdays start to feel like an achievement nowadays.

This sums up up perfectly for me.

Tim Burgess, lead singer of British rock band the Charlatans, wrote on Twitter that "Sinead was the true embodiment of a punk spirit."

"She did not compromise and that made her life more of a struggle. Hoping that she has found peace," he said.

I am just recovering from covid. I am led to beleive that a few hospitals have had to re open covid only wards, Stoke being one of them.

In my opinion its a given that a some point we will all have a maximum carbon footprint to use which we can sell to others where we don't need it all.

Give me a decent option to driving and i would use it every time. I hate driving. There are far too many vehicles on the road now.

I suspect there is an element of fear from Nationalists in Scotland after all the bad press the SNP have had.

My step mum just bought herself an electric car. My dad has had solar panels and 6kWh batteries installed and has calculations to say they should be able to run the house purely off solar for 9 months of the year and only effective charge the car from the grid.. it doesn't actually work that way bu...

Its storage of hydrogen that is the problem. To get sufficient into a fuel tank it needs to be a minimum of 5000psi and kept cold.

It will take massive steps forward in technology for it to be viable for bikes i would have thought.
