We're the same at work. We can't take a thing. For some clients we can't even buy them a beer.

Nice one D6, nice trip :) Grappa will kill you ha ha ha ha....
Yesterday I made a real effort to get the gardens in some sort of respectable condition. After a full day I am feeling it all over my body this morning, like I have been in the ring with Mike Tyson....

And I'm sure 'deep' is wildly overstating (lol)

And two minutes later just sold the Honda racing screen. So that's a clean sweep all the blade bling has gone plus a few other pieces.

Went on a Look Lean and Roll course. Brilliant time. Instructors were saying if I just moved my knee out it would of been scraping the floor! Really surprising how much lean you can get on even at relatively small speeds!

It's cornering basically Blade. You Look where you want to go (through the corner) you Lean through the corner (managed to scrub off my chicken strips hehe) and Roll on the power (to keep you stable through the corner and Roll on more as you exit. The course opened up my eyes on how good your tyres and bike really are. It was not straight and level riding it was all on the sides of your tyres! Great time well worth it.
