Never been, were they any good?

very impressed it wasnt as big a crash fest as I was expecting with the last couple of turns being so wet I was expecting a few guys to slip off but they were all pretty good.

I have to admit, MCE were pretty good when I wrote off my bike.

Nice lid

I rode mine into work. Which was a good job as the M40, M42 and the M6 were all buggered.

... I was teaching my boy some maths so looking round got number related visual aids. I noticed a box of flakes which although weighed in grams were in a box of 144 which my lads point out was 12 x 12 which I realised is imperial as its a dozen dozen rather than say 150 which would be a metric ...

... co-incidences continue. His name is also Paul, hes a kiwi, dives (how we first met) and is born the same year as me. Freaky. Sounds to me like you were fated to have that particular bike from that particular guy. Fate can be a strange thing.

Biffy Clyro at T In The Park. They are a proper band! When I went to see Foo's and they were supporting they were nearly as good as the Foo's themselves!!!

Not sure where you get stone chips Mine were on the missus bonnet, sorry I mean the missus car bonnet

Me on a 2005 Tuono, Tom on his 2012 Tuono V4, Gav on his Honda CBR600RR and Dek on his 1998 Tl1000s. We were away for 9 days. Took ferry from Portsmouth to St Malo, had one night in Bergerac, before hitting the Pyrenees and stopping in an apartment in Vielha, Spain, which is ...

I was taught a while ago and we were told about the lifesaver on the left but only if you've overtaken something or if there are pedestrians or cyclists near the junction.

You don't undertake like that. You can see the motorbike is to the left. He's not watching where he's going.

Sounds good. Fwiw I got some cheap baffles of eBay which were very effective at noise attenuation. Daytonabuffs bike failed the noise test at Oulton one £9 baffle later and all is well. Instead of buying a rear suspension bush and paying someone to fit ...

Mick, I really thought you were at Snetterton on Sunday, there was a spotless Castrol Blade just like yours there, I even asked Harriet if you'd sneaked in on the QT and not told us.

... from new. http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f207/JimmyMcIOM/Motorbikes/Mito.jpg Sold after 6 months for ZX7R. Restricted to 33bhp. Restrictors were easy to remove. Sold for scrap after 3 months following T junction incident which put my head through a wall, ruining my Hodgson replica lid. http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f207/JimmyMcIOM/Motorbikes/ZX7.jpg ...

... as other bikes I have had :( Not many bikes but had each for at least a few years before moving on. Always been too skint to keep swapping. Most were bought as cheap sheds on their last legs, maintained and run into the ground or until I couldn't afford the parts to get them through an mot.

Got soaked yesterday too. Was wearing leathers so was very cold. And at 80mph, big rain drops hitting your neck hurt. It was even hurting where the strecth panels were. A bit like playing airsoft with no clothes on.

Also, phone got ruined in my pocket. 1 of the buttons still dont work.

A lot of people were talking about Lorenzo moving to Honda. That's ruled that one out.

What a result, Germany were ruthless they could have had a few more as well !!
brazil were rubbish im glad they are out they haven't played that well the whole tournament anyway, what happened to the 'great' Brazil teams ? this lot are just mediocre !!
