Main goal of the weekend is to get the bike running again so rip the battery out when I get home tonight and bung it on charge, hope its just that, if not I suppose Ill check the spark plugs, just confused as its only been standing for about 2 weeks and its done that ...

Visiting parents tonight
Sat am work pm soul night at yam yam club
Sunday hopefully a lie in as won't be home till 3.30am then some wall papering to do and maybe cut the grass.

Just doing light cardio workouts at home now, no more lifting heavy weights, I'm down to 11 and half stone now the lightest I've been for nearly 30 years but tbh at 50 years old with out a top on I'm in pretty good shape.

... with the mate that driven me up there to pick it up, it had a Dan Gurney 4-1 fitted and sounded awesome just pootling along during the Iong ride home, however after we got back and had drunk the obligatory cuppa, I said I was going out for a proper ride. Didn't go nuts until a straight and the ...

... on a dual carriage way,i later tuned it to the max and thought i was mick doohan on it :) my 1st proper bike was a r6 ,i crapped myself riding it home from the sellers house but soon got to grips with it,it was a fantastic bike and did everything well,i did a lot of track days on it

... time. So your either looking after 4 kids on your own or working, nothing in-between. Been bloody tough to be honest, I'm not a natural stay at home dad and my clients didn't just work on the days I worked. So was pretty hard to do a good job at either. I'm back at work full time now and Sarah ...

Let me know where you'll be next week. I'm out of the house from 7.30 and rarely home before 7 so work will probably be easier.

I took the long way home tonight. As I was sat at some lights when a car from my left turned right, she then parked alongside me to tell me the road ahead by the Waterman was closed. Nice women. Unlike the tosser behind me who blasted ...

... ears the more i worked with the material the better i got at it it looks ok i could have got it better but i asked the wife to help when she got home and she decided it was more fun burning my hand with the hair dryer so i called it a day.

... a taxi and my first experience of the bike was turning right onto a very busy main road.. Well, I survived it and embarked on the rest of the ride home... How much difference can 100cc really make ??? A hell of a difference as I found out the first time I got a chance to open it wide, fooking hell ...

Road a 954 blade back home from Silverstone after only 8 months back on a bike which was a sh1t slow BMW pipe and slippers boxer. Scared myself sh1tless the whole way home. Felt like a tiny race jockey perched on top of a missile. I ...

... take my email confirmation of insurance as proof of insurance, so wouldn't tax my bike. My mate looked at me dejectedly and said "We going home then?" Says me "Are we bollocks, get your helmet on!"

I pass the main routes to it, always police around on the way home. There was a smash on the A5 actually last night in Tamworth, Blocked both the Eastbound lanes. Looked like cars though from what I could see as I headed the oterh way.

... alone in this, there are many long standing members. Something has to be very right for us all to stay and for new members to feel welcome and at home straight away. To all the people who make, support and contribute to this great site thank you, I'm an addict and love my daily fix of biking banter ...

... get some fuel from the track station. As I'm riding back in the paddock a van pulls out on me and almost T bones me. Enough is enough. Time to go home. Overall a mixed da but one I enjoyed. I had a chat with a few people, got the suspension sorted and came home in one piece. I really do need to ...

Followed a police car on the way home his blues flashing but thought it was best to keep a bit of distance don't think he would have been impressed if I passed him but he did hold me up advanced driving my ass :-p

... for the track. :D I called it a day. Too many close calls including a van almost T boning me in the paddock. It's better to leave early and ride home under your own steam. I'lll do a report later. Coming home early does mean I get to see my daughter's production, which now makes me the best dad ...

... slow as feck in the morning but really enjoyed the afternoon once i got in the groove,learnt a lot about my bike as well got a tug on the way home by a bike cop,boy did he tare a strip off me :(

Weekend has caught up with me, great week off last week then back in Saturday and yesterday which was manic and an early start this morning, hopefully I can feck off home early.

Yeah but could have been more

Only joking. Bradl must be gutted with his decision to ride a wet setup on slicks. If he had come in like others he would have been very strong for a podium at his home round.
