Bikers' Banter

I've just agreed to join some old friends for a long weekend camping, somewhere near Prescott hillclimb on the 23rd. Another long ride. I have so missed this sort of thing, but making up for lost time now :) I have invested in a slightly bigger roll bag, so I can take my bigger tent. The bike handle...

Congratulations, Grandad Bob. Just in case you did tell me and I've forgotten. Go and sit on a Street Twin. You can't travel fast, but I like being able to get both feet down! And everyone else keeps telling me how well they go and the awesome torque. I think they are all lying. I certainly don't ag...

I like that description.

You know what I've been up to and like you, I'm ready to move on and hope things get better soon. I have managed a weekend away at shelsley walsh hill climb. (I think I was in Worcester) with my bike and tent, attending the Triumph Owners Club 75th Birthday celebrations. A fabulous weekend, camping ...

Nice to be back.

I'm always being watched. It's the Government, I reckon. I still have a communications ban. They seem to have a long memory

I was going to fit my rails by myself, after lots of Youtube lessons, but forgot that knowing how to do something doesn't ...

I knew all this riding about, looking at daffodils was too good to last. So cold and windy here. Hail, rain and gales, all at once. I'm longing to take my bike out. I am enjoying it more each time. I still can't get used to the lack of power from such a big engine, but the sheer ease of managing it ...

Well, it's a sad reason for getting something good eventually, but as my boys told me very firmly when my wonderful Godmother died and left me money to pay off my mortgage, it was left to me to make my life a little brighter and better and I should get on with spending it and thinking of the fun tim...

Wish I could be there to hug you. What a bad time you're having to get through.
I'm glad the business is sorted. As you say, you have other things to think about. xx
