It looks like the so called "war on motorists" is going to be the Tories preferred battleground for the next general election. Expect a load of scaremongering about more ulez, 20mph limits, restrictions on car use and 15 minute cities. Screenshot_20230929_075643_X.jpg Yep, add that to the...

I swapped them, plus a few quid for a mid-level Alpinestars two-piece, Missile V2 or something. Quite pleased with them and nice to have a change after 16 years.

Just got back from 4 days around the Rutland area, one of which was with an MCN journalist on part of the MCN250 test track (road). Fantastic roads, really wasn't expecting them to be that good. I knew the Melton to Market Harborough road was good, but the other back roads he took us on were absolut...

Ahhhh, sorry, a bit slow there

I like the new eroks

For one terrible second there, I thought you wrote Ewoks!

100% Cav, just imagine if we all took account of our own individual effects on the environment. Energy, waste, pollution etc, what a place that would be. Never going to happen though, for the same reason communism never works, we (society) don't see each other as equals. I've done my bit this year, ...

"They" need to be very careful with that before the next election. You could see large groups of voters going to parties like Reform UK. We're still a single-issue voting public.

Working out how they learn is the hardest part

Yoghurt, walnuts and honey. I'm on a fasting diet with a bit of keto thrown in, only eating between 1pm and 8pm.

I've lost 1.7 kg in 8 days, so will hopefully be able to fit in my leathers by this time next week.

I use the word "hate" very cautiously, but I hate that woman. She's the embodiment of everything that's rotten in the main stream media.

Looks like it faired a lot better than the Yaris

Yesterday, but I fixed it. I've been putting it off as I thought it might be the stator, b@stard of a job on the ZX6 because of the way they run the cables. Fairing off, tank off, airbox off etc. and I hate taking the front fairing off this bike. Anyway, I took a punt and just replaced the rectifier...

Me and Frankie should be out on our bikes. Instead it's pissing it down.

Should have come up to the Peaks. All of those storms completely missed us yesterday, very unusually.

OOF!!!

Chuff me, lucky escape there dude. Could have been much much worse! Very glad you're OKish.

Meanwhile over 100 UK schools having to close buildings as they are unsafe. Seems like we are returning to the Victorian times the Brexiteers always wanted. They have been monitoring the RAAC concrete situation since 2018, what an utter f,,,, up would wait until now to drop that on the schools ? -I...

Made me really want to do a long euro trip on a bike

Just driven to Berlin and back and can concur

I think I'd have to do it, the intrusive thoughts would be too loud!

Cheers guys, 51 again! Had a really nice day. Nice breakfast with the kids and out for a curry with the rest of the family.

The best present has to go to this one from my eldest lad, the git!
