Re: The new improved fitness thread

I need to get my cardio fitness back up. The last 3 months have been hard work, but mainly strength - my cardio is shocking as i enjoyed myself too much over Christmas :D :P The weather is starting to improve here, so the road cycle will be back out for a few regular rides each week to pump some blo...

Re: What ails you today?

Mrs C00kiemonster managed to throw herself down the stairs just before we left the UK for frogland. Excellent timing. She's suffering big time around her Coccyx (which she broke many years ago), badly bruised and struggling to walk sometimes. It was a daft accident so i wasn't that sympathetic but s...

Re: What are you drinking?

This is it. It's a Boston style lager but it's brewed in Wolverhampton. http://www.revisionistbeers.co.uk/our-range/craft-lager/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Ah - Boston Style. If you find some Samuel Adams, its quite distinctive. Will have to sort out a trip to your loc...

Re: What are you drinking?

I was on some craft Boston lager beer last night. I don't usually drink lager but this was very nice, not too fizzy, almost like a pale ale. My local is getting some more in. I could get used to it. Is that Samuel Adams? It's one of the few lagers I like. Craft beers are getting very popular in the...

Re: Not bad figures for an electric

The big advantage with the Tesla cars is that they're all ready to go driverless. Tesla are storing up shit loads of information which they'll be able to sell once the green light is given for driverless cars to be used on our roads. But yeah, they're far from cheap. They can't be too far off being...

Re: Not bad figures for an electric

I think those Tesla cars do 0-60 in about 3 seconds. I'd love a tesla. I'd even sit for an hour every 300 miles to charge the damn thing. They are bringing out a new cheaper version soon, but still so damn expensive. Problem is if everyone had them the grid couldn't cope. But that would involve for...

Re: Not bad figures for an electric

.... Diesel is now evil in political circles and give it a few years no one will want them.. Thing is, aren't road vehicles are just a small portion of the diesel engine applications ? Most ocean going transport, trains, hell even some electrical generation is diesel powered (which would make havin...

Re: New Street Triple coming - 10th January

A lot of work. You'd be better buying a street and trying to fit the fairings. Isn't the chassis of the old street / daytona and the new street almost the same apart from geometry?

At least the stickers wont need changing, just swop the numbers around :D

Re: Not bad figures for an electric

I wont buy another diesel when the family wagon decides to die. Diesel is now evil in political circles and give it a few years no one will want them imo.

Plus they are getting more and more complex to cover the crap they shove out the back.

I'll stick to large supercharged petrol engines :)

Re: New Street Triple coming - 10th January

I'm tempted to pop down to my local triumph dealer (when it's open) and see what 675 stock they have. There will be some mega deals on the old one if the new one is so good. The new base model is £8k s they can't charge anymore than that IMO. They're doing the blinged up 675 anniversary models for ...

Re: New Street Triple coming - 10th January

I've not read a bad review yet. I am very tempted by the middle of the range one. It's a good price and it sounds like a cracking road bike. I'm not sure I need the extras you get with the RS model and I prefer the colour schemes on the R. Buy one - then i can try it before i buy one :D My choice w...

I'm now trying to find out who actually is my buyers solicitor as they plus the buyer are on the borderline of being told to fook off and stop wasting my time. We agreed to Exchange Contracts in 4 weeks it's now been 10 weeks and the honest truth is nothing has happened other than excuses for the l...
