I've been to Assen twice when i was in my 20's to watch the racing but missed it all both times because i was unconscious in a bar somewhere

Picked a car up from Blackbush, stopped at the airport cafe … Vickers Viking .. derived from the Wellington bomber , think they just brought this one here to restore …they was made just up the road from Blackbush

Little ride around Utah, Nevada and California with the incontinent bunch (BMW Club of Southern California). Chilly temps, little rain, some snow. Death Valley was a perfect ending to warm us all back up.

They're polar opposites!

Well I hope your boy in NL looks after you better than the twat who's gone to Madrid.

If they are on Honda's they are probably shifting from buttock to buttock because their arse hurts.

I can confirm that my Wolf riding gear and new boots are waterproof, on the way down it absolutely pissed down, the roads passing Kielder were flooded and the rain was bouncing off the road, I had a good 30 to 40 miles of torrential rain until I rode out into sun, I saw bikes going the opposite way and thought “you poor fools”. Passed a gixxer after that, very sad, I shouldn’t have been able to keep up on the straight or in the bends but it was being ridden by someone who looked like they were completely rigid. Why buy a bike like that if you are scared of it?

Brother in law is going on a temporary transfer to a specialist centre in Hyeres tomorrow and needed some stuff dripping of for him in Lyon before he leaves. Wed planned to go and spend the afternoon with him sunday to take him his stuff. But, the cat escaped from the colditz courtyard on Thursday night, reappeared on friday in a bad way. Vet says she got bitten by a dog so 4 stitches and convalescent. Didnt want to leave her alone all day Saturday so Mrs Moon stayed home & i decided to run down to Lyon and back by bike. 4.5h run south ( no motorway) getting there at 14:00. Sit around in the warm and dry taking the piss out of brother in law whilst a storm front goumes through from sw to ne and then a 3 h night blast up the autoroute home for 22hoo ish. Boy did i get that plan wrong! left here 09:00 having checked the weather radar and realised the storm front was moving faster then forcast and starting to rotate north. i stopped about an hour out to zdd a layer under my jacket cos the temps dropped 5°. Again an hour later for a quick slurp of coffee from my flask and a 2nd thermal layer. I was already on the northern edge of the storm fron and the rain was coming down steadily. I got a bit further south before finding a bus shelter to eat me sarnies in whilst watching alternately the rain and the weather radar. It become very clear over half an hour that i was going to have to bail on the brother in law and rely on that age old tried and tested military strategy of” running away”. The storm front was moving much faster than id thought and the main body was now right between me and Lyon. The weather radar shows the storm had reached the Rhone valley and stalled, curling north in an anticlockwise rotation, generating wind and lightning strikes along with heavy rainfall. i misread that completely! And rode home with my tail between my legs ( metaphorically. Though the rain eased as i got further north i definitely found the limits of ALL my rain gear well before i got home. I dont remember being so thoroughly soaked in years. i am decidedly too old for that shit. i’ pit brither in laws stuff in a box and sent it “chronoposte”. 400 odd km round trip, 300of which in steady rain. on the plus side im not aching all over this morning, and the bike didnt miss a beat.

So this relative that was born nearly two hundred years after the personal Union of England, Ireland and Scotland was formed recounted the horrors of English rule despite the personal Union being formed under a Scottish monarch? That’s very interesting, now let’s talk about what your recent ancestors did to the indigenous population of the land they occupied. You are basically guilty of genocide and the blood is on your personal hands as it all occurred in the last two hundred years. You live on stolen land, I hope you are proud of yourself, you are the oppressor, you are the Rothschild, you are the invader, you are everything you are paranoid about, you are the problem not the solution.

Funny you should say that because thats what i was doing towards the end of my ride yesterday

We were at the flat cleaning early this morning. Then we went to see Paco.......his wife checked the place out yesterday. We explained about the missing stuff so we've agreed to leave the washing machine that we bought there to compensate them. We didn't want it anyway so we're more than happy with that. As for the scuffing and marks on walls he wasn't really bothered because he said whoever buys it will want to redecorate anyway......so we dodged the bullet on that as well. So it went better than we expected.......I think it helped that we were totally honest about everything. And what we could put right we did! On a more upbeat note we've booked our accommodation in NL for the 3 days we'll be there! https://www.witterzomer.nl/kamers/nederland-drenthe-2-persoons-comfort-hotelkamer We're going to be staying in Assen, not far from The Cathedral of Speed! You casuals will need to Google that!

This is the style if you really have to have a topbox.

She can’t write.

Another little bimbile today....long legs joined the group today..she's getting to be a regular show...we made it burnchurch a native settlement ..where they serve these amazing lobster rolls...it's called sitting bull..

I've got a few huge almonds in my tree, this one is smiling at me

I bet Buckster does this with his gayglide....

When my twins were born...I knew that I had super potent sperm...so I rectified the problem by getting snippet...problem solve...you should have done the same....we Honda rider are well indowed in the balls department...

And you smell of wee.

its beyond me how you aint lost it with your boy and the fat cunt ....

We know what you were doing in the woods then don't we.

I started to keep a record for more of what i'm spending on the bikes and to see how long various makes of tyres and brake pads were lasting as i go through a lot of them and added the regular service stuff to it , but soon found out i was forgetting to fill it in or just couldn't be arsed

When you are gone, Paco will break into your place and trash it.

Typical Honda rider, staying in a place that starts with Ass.

I ride with real biker chicks...and no trailler.

Went past your house, I was going to call in but it smelt of shite so I gave it a miss.

Gorse nice to smell as you ride through but bad to touch

Wouldn't have happened if me and Six30 had the gig...

It’s a pointless exercise, unless you have race quality tyres, swaying from side to side has no effect. I’m a scientist and I know these things.

Brilliant report huge Janus.. a real man world motorcycle...sure beats going electric...

Great shots Rick!

Rest of the cleaning done......and flat keys returned to Paco. 2 library books that she was too lazy to return have now been taken back to the Library. Now just waiting for their final electric and water bill so we can wipe the slate clean!

I got a big garden and a sturdy shovel ,

He went heterosexual.

Like we are going to take you seriously, you live in a pretend country that pretends to be in the commonwealth.

Evelyn de Rothschild and some Charlie.

ask her if i can be her pen pal

No i was out on my own all day just got monkey butt LOL was out 9 hours and i'm fooked now

Home again, 306 miles round trip.

A short track detour from the road to take a scenic picture My favourite corner around this area, you can go quite fast but it tightens half way through which makes it interesting, the view to the left as it climbs is why I like it.

Now that's a real bike...top box compliments the bike...

Out for a while.......

Lovely morning

Colonist traitor!

Brand new...
