Just looking through some photos and found this taken by a friend of my wife, damn i hate it when your right. In my defence there was an open fire burning and the seats were real comfy

My late afternoon dog walk was so nice I wanted to share. If you are still awake like me, then have a good evening and sleep well! ? If you wake up to this, Good Morning and have a great day! ?

And I've got no doubt that Google will drop us out of the search results. Because considering this is a motorcycle forum.......how can the most popular contributor be someone who doesn't have a bike? And even worse......it's @Bruce If this carries on I'll be the one flouncing from here!

Thank you @Pete ?

I needed to run the bike as most of the last month or two has been a wipeout with the weather. Having said that, it wasn't too clever today either. 8c, black clouds, mist, strong winds and when I was out I even got a couple of spots of rain on the visor! And I had to deal with another hazard.......cos I even had to overtake a couple of cars too! Obviously I also had to be careful not to go outside the town perimeters due to the restrictions in place! Add all that lot up......and you've got The Perfect Storm! It was the time for testicular fortitude on a truly industrial scale!

Looking like February here.

Oi ! I've said nuffink!

Well I have done the grand total of.....fuck all as last nights sleep was cut very short due to skye being up at 3am for a feed then no sooner had she gone back to sleep then the neighbours started having a row with her screaming through the wall to us to call the rozzers which we duly did then spent the next couple of hours sorting everything out, turns out he tried strangling her then when she managed to get him off her and scream for help he decided he was gna twat her in the moosh possibly breaking her jaw then like a coward he scarpered only to return at some point this morning. He let their dog out in the street aswell so I went looking for it just as the rozzers turned up and thought I was him as he is also called Richard so they almost arrested me just for having the same name as the neighbour until I got my licence out to prove I wasn't the one they were after, the fucking suspicious twats!! So yeah although I haven't done much its been a long old day

Just to remind you that if you want to say something directly to somebody, and you haven't quoted their post, then use the Tag function. All you need to do is press the @ key then type the first couple of letter of their username. A select box will appear and you just select the member you want. Once you've done that they'll get a notification telling them. If you've quoted their post then there's no need to use the Tag........because in that instance they'll get a notification anyway. This Tag functionality didn't exist years ago, back then you had to send somebody a PM to give them the link to the original post. So this aspect makes things a lot easier and quicker......and at least there's one thing where Social Media has helped improve the forum experience.

Next Expendables movie for me I'm sure Michelle!

Someone had to man up this weekend!

Yeh.....and drink makes nothing better! Only worse! And ultimately all you guys are only swilling down booze in the unrealistic hope of having the personality and charisma that I have. Well it ain't gonna happen. It's genetic! Not passed onto any of my 5 sons unfortunately! But my eldest grandson in Poland does show signs of signs of having an excessive personality with a need to be the centre of attention! So there's hope for the future. No hope for you fucking lot though.

We noticed

Washing machine success.

Get a grip you pissheads.....or there'll be tears before bedtime!

I couldn't help myself.... ? Sure it was raining and only 5 degrees out... Sure I only had 75km on new sport tires... But Charlotte did great in the not so ideal conditions, she is just a gem and we are two wet and happy girls! ?️?

Here, you have a few bars, probably struggling ones since I've only noticed this last year, that offer the 6th beer or a discount if you go over 5

Thats just the thing they aren't bad neighbours well weren't anyway, we get along with Lisa really well and used to with rich her bloke but he decided to acuse me and lisa of having an affair.....and he's become very toxic, though he won't win the war nor any preceeding battles as I don't rise to his shite and tell him as much when I see him. I know from an outside opinion that she should tell him to do one and both me and the wife have said to her so but she says she loves him, its very difficult in these abuse cases to get the abused to see the light at the end of the tunnel if they let go of the abuser all we can do is be support for her and do what is needed when the time comes

It was a nice building, but the food was kinda crap. Check out all of the tap handles at the bar - this is only 1/2 of them as the other side of the bar has just as many. 100+ beers on tap. So I wasn't really there for the food anyway?

Well I'm very happy with the Puck! I forgot it was on and when I put the bike on the sidestand I thought there must be a stone underneath, because it didn't drop as low it was. So it took a bit of getting used to.....and the rubber really grips the road so there's no sidestand slip whatsoever. Plus it don't look wonky now.

More luck than judgement I'll admit Rich!

Only had two beers at dinner last night. Trying to cut down, ya know....

No i thought you might have incontinence issues sorry. ?

Is that a wet spot on your seat? Asking for a friend.

What a fucking state! And you're still holding the bottle!

Specs is sporting some good hair there................

I cant go farther then one mile south, butt, can go as far north as i want.

So nice.....you have such good taste in vehicles.

My mum is from Newcastle and we moved up this way so we could afford to live and not just pay everything we earn on housing and whatnot and the house we currently live in just happened to have everything we needed at a reasonable price and the rest is history

Also, you can now stop fretting about the underside of the sidestand foot getting scratched. It's a new world.

does it bite

Pete! good to see ya mate! I can't elieve I didn't think of coming to find you on AusTouring.... ( brain died I reckon) say Hi to Goodie for me.

Good god pete a spot of rain on your beak....how did you get through it unscathed though yes the pics do look nice and...they even have some green things in them

Some beautiful shots Pete, you can sense the cold in the air. That is some pretty hardcore riding for you!

No....it's a slight scuff on it from previous owner. Notice the Puck makes a difference?

Ren must have been about! Cos he'd have had that away and then given it to somebody claiming he'd bought a round!

Ohh you know how to work the crowd, wheres your BOTM photo so i can vote for it now

Good to see you here Pete, it would be great to see some of your ride reports. I think you'd also like some of @Grasshopper's Ride stuff.

no im not as green as im cabbage looking

Nothing gets by you! ?

Looks like you enjoyed yourselves, hope you didn't get too moist

It is coming fine sir, you will be the first to hear of the news.

Hi @Penny Martin .....Pete here, good to see you! For the rest of you, Penny is our first American lady......and she's from Texas!

I'll have to wait until covid is under control and they open the borders again but I'm thinking of riding one of my favorite trip route's. Take off East from Vancouver through BC into Alberta then head South down into Montana and follow the Rocky mountains through Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Arizona, and then cross over California to the pacific ocean and ride up the west coast through California, Oregon and Washington back to Vancouver.
