Absolutely fresh from the camara!! May not be a winner on the photography contest, but its on the emotional side of things!

Dragged to Carrefour and the shopping mall in Murcia! So I made the best of it by visiting a couple of bike shops on the same block! Here's Carrefour........notice the bike specific parking areas! They even had some weird Scooter things.... The wife wanted clothes.....but didn't like anything there! But I got a couple of T shirts and 3 pairs of long, thin white socks.......to stop my ankles getting burnt on the bike in the Summer. But no tracksuit bottoms there! WTF? By now, the wife was really pissed off she couldn't get anything.......so I thought I'd cheer her up by taking her into Belmoto BMW. One of the showrooms was full of Chinese type shit I'd never heard of! Then into the BMW showroom! I couldn't believe the size of the big Beemers......they're enormous. The wife likes (or rather tolerates) BMW's cos her favourite bike was Big Bird......the R1150GS. She was very impressed with the 1250GS......then she looked at me and said "You're too old for something like this". After that it was into EuroBikes accessories......very disappointed with their range. They had a nice Summer jacket there for €69 but they had nothing bigger than Large......and I couldn't get my shoulders in that. However they did have Silkolene Chain & Brake Cleaner......so I grabbed a can! Across the road is AutoFerro Honda......but didn't bother to go in. It was just too bloody hot by then. Left at 9am, back at 2.30pm, and 300kms done! The wife ended up with nothing (and it was her shopping trip)......but I got 2 T shirts, 3 socks, and some chain cleaner. So not a complete wipeout. You don't get shit like this on Buttrider! Tell 'em @Tym!

That’s too bad, tinnitus is a bitch. They used to ride together didn’t they? A lot of things aren’t the same if done leaving your better half behind.

@Sir Fallsalot.......can you get your new gimp to sign up here? The old one seems to be malfunctioning!

Fuck off you Ginger twat

I'll use this one this month got a few of the XR but its the same old shit with that

I went out for an early ride today, before it got too hot. We are having a strange weather pattern right now where I live, something called a "HEAT DOME" is causing record breaking heat for these parts. I thought a morning ride would be best. . The roads were dry and dusty but the forest was still filled with cool morning air. . A very nice ride! Might just spend tomorrow in the backyard camp, where it is cool and quiet! Have a fun weekend everyone! .....and for @Tym, just have a nice couple of days, it doesn't matter what we call them

My favorite quote for a large shit is I just shit a pile two grown men couldn't shake hands over

I've had 2 spells. First go was around 12 years. Mandi then tool over the roll and went full-time while I brought the kids up. Think I've been back about 7 years. The change in job was huge when I went back. So much electronics to catch up on and it's going to get much worse for people like me.

WTF fuck are you going to do with three socks or did you buy a present for Bob as well

That's a great photo Sophia, I hope you don't mind but I cropped those cars out

Gay.

Pissing with rain here but driving down to England today to visit family, back tomorrow. I hoped to take the bike but it’s no fun in this weather.

My pineapple shirts look a bit different upon closer inspection as well. Shirt even has a nice concealed carry slot on the inside.

@boboneleg.......The early years!.

Pete after a haircut and shopping tomorrow

I'll go with my Van Van at Farleigh Castle

Mine is it was so big I should have named it before launching it to the waters

Was just deaf in the right ear then.....maybe he stuffed that nub end in my other ear.

When I got my referral along with it came a questionnaire....asking Do you have a pacemaker? Do you have any tattoos? Do you have stents fitted? And many more questions. Get there, and they ask the same questions while looking at the questionnaire I had filled in, plus a few others. Have you had Covid? Have you been in contact with anyone who has has Covid? Do you have any allergies? And other questions. Get onto the platform that goes into the MRI.......and she says "we will put on these headphones, play you some music", so I say "I won't be able to hear it...deaf!" So the woman's says "would you like some ear plugs to wear...the machine is very loud?" What part of deaf did she not understand?

Seems your head was full of shit then!

Maybe not.......but I did have a huge dump this afternoon.....

I'd be worried about stepping on those disabled spots in case i fell in the whole thing looks like a swimming pool to me

Dawn used to ride a lot on her own he was my old riding buddy the road riding was worse for him than the trail riding

Are you on the wine, Bob? That’s usually my gig!

You dont get chit like this riding Butt....did i do that right?

You've fucked up there Pete, loads of gay boots on that shelf, perfect for you.........

Just smoked the Tomos on Loosenuts™, poor bro spend thousands just to loose this one.

I so want one of those leather caps, they aren’t at all gay.

That first photo just made me throw up in my mouth a bit can you please pre warn me before you post anything like that again

Had to give the shaft a scrap and still had to give the new sprocket a few taps to get it all the way home. It's def using all the spline available. The boys on the TDM forum have stopped using JT front sprockets as they're already a bit of a loose fit on the output shaft from new.

I've just nocked something up for the XR there's more wear on the shaft than i like so looked at making something to use all the shaft. I ended up annealing the old sprocket cutting the teeth off and then turning it down to the same diameter as the sprocket retainer. Then i drilled and tapped the sides so a grub screw would tighten down into the groove the sprocket retainer normally sits in. The JT sprockets got a shoulder on them that normally faces out i turned it around so it faces in so you have to push it onto the unused part of the shaft to get it to line up with the chain and with the modified sprocket re hardened and bolted to it it ends up covering all the shaft. I did use a chemical metal as i pushed the sprocket on to build up the worn part of the shaft so it's not just the new part of the shaft taking the strain. I've put about 500 miles on it now and everything seems good. the four screws around the sprocket are just there to cap off the grub screws and to keep the crap out

If it's your bit on the side then it's fine Dave!

I got all the wood in for next winter.

Pete was taught to mount them in a different way.

You obviously spend too much time looking at other men's legs

No. Ive had a couple of Stouts but what I was trying to put across is this is the last place that needs to go all PC !! I mean, how will Buckster survive if he can't call anyone a cunt or gimp

Wish I had....would know what caused the headache.

I wear plugs whenever I’m on a longish ride or on the motorway. Tinnitus scares the shit out of me.

As far as i'm aware Dawn and Steve haven't had a bike in years now. i know he has been suffering with tinnitus for a long time and couldn't put up with the wind noise on the bike don't know why Dawn packed it in though

I'm OK on boots.....it was a Summer jacket that I wanted, and possibly jeans. But the jeans were all narrow legged things and ridiculously long. Same in Carrefour as well.

Was that the day i paid that ridiculous amount for what the menu called fish and chips in Glasbury LOL

Gospel Pass Fred ? I've got some photos of you , me and Ogri from there.

Snowflake should be banned? What about raindrop?

Trolling her and saying he misses Blender no doubt!
