Tonight, will be mainly sitting maybe a trip to the pub. Tomorrow was going to be out on the bike, but after today's rain, the forecast for tomorrow, and my hand still hurting that looks to be off. Seems the replacement activity is buying the kids new school shoes (dull) Nothing ...

... in it. http://www.speakerscorner.me/stephanie-corneliussen/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I was confused enough after the first season! will have to get onto the second season once I get home. Stephanie....mmmmmmm :P What VPN do you use Kwacky? I was using PIA ...

... to my interpretation at least, seems to downplay the situation. Maybe I'm just being sensitive because my kids are currently 3,500 kms away and after seeing that vid all I wanted to do was go and give them a hug and be thankfully we live in a peaceful country. My bad I guess.

Oh hello Good point there. Might do my bike shopping after 1 Jan then.

I love the Thruxton but it's too slow for my tastes. I might try one though if Triumph Birmingham have a demo in. I won't be doing anything until after I'm back from Japan, so November at the earliest. By then I'll know what models are coming out for 2017 and there are usually some pretty good ...

Well, my weekend tickets arrived the day after I posted asking where they were on this forum :) , but does anyone know if they are doing a pit walk on the Saturday night like last year? It was only £10 last year and I thought it was great value ...

... a translator with him which is fine, not unusual, and we spoke both professionally and personally over dinner through the translator. We found after he spoke perfect English, but he kept up the pretence for the whole week.

Having seen the state my textiles get in after a couple of weeks commuting there's no way I want that shit peppering my face. I love dyslexia, as i thought it read 'testcles' so I was thinking that's a comment that shouldn't be taken out of context ...

I'm loving the riding stance created by the after market bar clip on's fitted and the wind doesn't start to really be a pain until you're in the >100mph region (so I'm told officer). It sounds ...

Had a lie in then went for a family swim after a nice alfresco breakfast. Had a nice 4 mile costal walk into Looe for a late lunch. Absolutely gorgeous Cornish crab lunch with a cold local cider to wash it down. The afternoon was a mackerel fishing ...

That'll be sore tomorrow

... these days and breakdowns were a rarity these days but apparently not. The cars are reliable, it's just nobody these days knows how to look after them. Most just assume that once it's been serviced that's it until it asks to be serviced again. Is it not? Oh crap.....

That's quite unusual.
I believe that the most frequent reason for new leathers purchase is that the current ones are "becoming a rather tight"

Travelled home after a brilliant week in the Brecon Beacons, it's been a long time since I've seen Mrs Gee so relaxed and unwound as she was this week. Looking at dates again already.

As promised, a view from halfway up on our climbing day.
