I rode to work on Friday, it was a bit cold. Stayed at my mates Friday night and rode to the seaside today. Frinton, home of the retired UK pensioner and it seems their dogs. I have never seen so many people walking dogs in one place. Walking up the only high street in the area (shops not allowed on the sea front), I bumped into a friend I hadn't seen since about 1984, we recognised each other straight away. I did the obligatory foot writing in the sand.4 points

It's simple Bob, with that formula you can calculate how long a wooden leg needs to be to sit on comfortably whilst stuck up your arse 4 inches and leant at an angle of 70 degrees4 points

Some info .................. Suitably impressed I rode on through Pewsey Vale to get a gander at the White horse ................ and rode some more trails around Avebury but not this one, the ruts were about 2 foot deep in places and I only have 3mm tread left on my tyres On the way home I checked on the lane with the fly-tipping from last week, top marks to Wiltshire CC as they had cleared it up and then a short stop by the duck pond in Biddestone to have a coffee on the way home ............4 points

Taken me forever to figure out a simple hypotenuse calculator, yeay yeah I know Pythagoras theorum but on surveys I'm not able to measure the upright length just the width from the ground and the angle in degrees of the roof by placing my digital spirit level on a rafter My first spreadsheet formula was flawed and I was buggered if I could figure out the issue hypotenuse = width/cos(angle), eventually I realised that spreadsheets need radians not angles in degrees, then it hit me after and hour or two of playing with the functions "DEGREES" and "COS" etc that maybe there's a RADIANS function, and there is, formula is now hypotenuse = Width/COS(RADIANS(angle)) et viola, it works Now to scrub all the chalk markings off the living room wall before the Mrs see's them3 points

You be careful. If the local scrotes are prepared to jack up a car and cut its catalytic converter off in broad daylight for a few quid, never ever fall asleep outdoors.3 points

So what do you do if you have a bit of spare land, you have an interest in past times and you live in a part of the country full of neolithic monuments ? You build your own Long Barrow of course That's what some bloke did near All Cannings in Wiltshire so today I went to have a look at it , I rode across the top of Rounway Hill to get there............. and along the byway that crosses the Kennet & Avon canal to get to it .............. And I wasn't disapointed , what an amazing feat of engineering. But what's more impressive is the fact that dudes did this with basically their bare ahnds and rudimentary tools over 5000 years ago There's a locked gate to stop you from going inside but you can arrange to get access for £30 if that's your thing. I made do with poking my nose through the gate ............ and then I clambered ontop to get a view from above ..............3 points

You are right about the 250 and 400 sharing the same chassis and the 125 and 175. From what I remember the DT175 MX was much better off road than the TS185 but the Suzuki was the better road bike. I rode a long distance trial in 1982 on my brand new TS250ER , I was still running it in at the time. My mate was gutted as I beat him on his DT175MX, he lost nearly twice as many points as me2 points

I have had the same conversation with myself about a DT175MX and a TS185ER , I would love one of either but doubt I would ride them much. I quite fancy a CRF300, but doubt I would use that much, yes I would have a play but just haven't got the time to make the best of something like that.2 points

It does look proper black. I'll have dinner with my neighbors in a bit. Nothing fancy, probably roasted chicken, similar to what I think Nandos makes in the UK. Might have a glass of wine too, maybe two.2 points

Quick Aux belt to fit on a mates van and off to my older sons to fit some skirting and cornice. Also a couple of wall boards and shelving. Think I'm gonna be there for a while. Yesterday I was playing with a friends dr125dx. Sent the barrels for a rebore a week or so ago and they're now back on. Can get it to fire with a little fuel down the plug holes but nothing coming through the carbs so this sager will continue at a later date.2 points

Well today is the wife's 61st Birthday and our 36th Wedding Anniversary. Funnily enough 3 days ago would have been the 47th Anniversary of my marriage to her predecessor!2 points
