The way TV is run and who runs it in the UK needs some big changes.

There is so little competition.

Rickster some of us have discussed doing the speedway day again. Its great fun and a good way of learning to feel the bike slide.

Speed way happened and has been done....

... the night before or after possibly? Not cheep, but something different, I am still gutted I had to miss out on our slapper's day out doing speed way... Just starting the thread off, so your feed back is welcome.

... program of races. I really envy you as I have had to give up my running through injury and its a great hobby and pass time not to mention a way of keeping fit and in shape. Good luck at getting your 52 PB (y)

Guy Martin and Triumph are teaming up to see if they can break the land speed record And what better way than a Brit on a British-made motorcycle? Martin, who raced in America last year during the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, is slated to compete at Bonneville Speedway ...

... He is just flaunting him being a prick. Yesterday I had 4 LEARNER riders who thought they were bad arse riders in a 30mph zone. I clocked them way down the road and realised very quickly that they were maxing their little machines out. It was confirmed when I saw the recklessly over taking ...

I don't think looks wise the 899 swingarm detracts from the bike in any way but the single sider is easier for wheel removal and chain adjustment.

... Sorry Reading but you have clearly been hit with the cheap stick! Surprising as I thought TGI were famous of their burgers! Suppose this is the way of all the major common resturant chains now days. On another note had a harvester a couple of weeks ago and I never eat burgers there because they ...

We've seen racers do it for years. Look at the way Shuey has crashed during qualifying to win pole, or punt Hill or Villeneuve off the track.

2 and 4 wheel racers want to win, fair means or foul. The good ones, the smart ones, they do it without it being obvious.

there's a nice pub for lunch at Edith Weston on the south side of rutland water , the wheatsheaf iirc , there are some lovely roads round that way , unfortunately I'm at the Bike Fest at Mallory working or I'd have come along

Fingers crossed, otherwise it could be the loneliest Tankslap rideout I've ever done! We've decided to head over Rutland way. I used to live there and there were some cracking roads. Hopefully they haven't deteriorated too badly since I was last there, and hopefully neither has my ...

... bike can have problems, my S1000RR top yoke cracked when i was at snetterton which meant loose head bearings (!) and had 2 bolts vibrate loose the way to Germany. Just goes to show any bike can have problems.

Do you get caught up on the A46 Kwacky? Depends which way I go. I work near Binley and live in south Brum so I can do the M6 and come off at Junc 2 or M40. Morning traffic on the A46 Monday to Wednesday is a nightmare, so I tend to M6 to work and M40 ...

Why was everyone queuing in the right lane on both those dual carriageways? even in a car id have gone down the left lane and then all the way round the roundabouts to skip that lot

Good work

... may not have seen the middle bike on track as he was unsighted by the bike on the left which appears to slow down to allow him to rejoin. Either way common sense would tell you never to try and ride right across the straight like that.

... touring range of bikes that BMW produce, not something most of us on here ride right now, but hey you never know. I spent two hours on one on the way up country on Saturday morning and another 4 hours on one on the way back, I kid you not :( traffic was a night mare and filtering was a challenge ...

The handling is pretty good considering it's a budget bike. The rear hasn't got much left in the way of chicken strips.

... the top. Are the leathers in the area when you think rubbing and damage can be done or are the leathers higher than you thought and out of the way ? http://i.ytimg.com/vi/L9KvBQWl1OE/maxresdefault.jpg

That's the way the law has been for a while now. Convenience is another factor. The zx6r is off the road. Brum gave me a loan bike. If it wasn't fit the rear tyre the service editor have been me riding there, getting the loan bike, ...
