Re: Hello all
... now as more people have electronics and TC and are able to just crack the throttle. Where they might have ended up on their collar bone a few years ago! Test rode the 636 when I bought my Daytona. Great bike, I mean that, but just didn't feel special enough I'm afraid. As I said, I must be ...

Re: Pet Dog Stalemate
Me and my best mate have been pals for 9 years or so now. I absolutely dread the day he is not about any more. Yes they are a tie. But so are families and mortgages and stuff . I think alot of people's problems come from choosing the wrong breed ...

Re: Pet Dog Stalemate
I love dogs, had two Weinmaraners in NZ. But as had been said it's a big commitment. My kids have been hassling me for a couple of years too, but the current state of my marriage has stopped the wife siding with them. I'd love them to have a dog but I'm away 40% of the time, wife works ...

Re: Too many traffic lights
I made this observation years ago, I spent a great deal of time in the car in London, and the lights were set up for really short green and bloody long reds.... Was becoming a joke, especially as you sit there for ever and then the plonker ...

Re: 2016 Honda CBR600rr
I do remember one of the Triumph development team saying a couple of years back at the updated 675 launch that if they had known how super sport sales would plummet it's likely they would not have updated the bike.

Re: Skiing!
... in a hotel/studio flat... Yeah i would recommend it. To be fair it is a gamble with whom you'd be sharing the chalet with. We've done it 4 years in a row and have found the people to be all good, you'd always sort of gravitate to those who you find interesting and visa versa. It also helps ...

Back on two wheels
... protection, plenty of storage and enough oomph for the motorway too and I'm not going to have time for pleasure rides for the next couple of busy years anyway. I parked it at work in a bike shed full of sports bikes and it stood out as the biggest thing in there :) Pics to follow later tonight.

Re: Skiing!
... December to 12th December ......... Always a gamble. When I was a child my parents used to take us for two weeks over Christmas every year. Some years would be amazing conditions, some utterly dire. We tend to go Jan/Feb or even early March, but I prefer to watch the weather & book short ...

Re: Windows that act as solar panels.

Jorge's house
Not sure you could call it a home.. Filmed 2 years ago by Monster and allegedly Jorge asked for it to be taken down after a few hours as he didn't like it.
