Earned it.

Gotta love a bit of cycling especially when it’s not windy

My wife is a diamond but any time something fails or goes wrong she always says the same thing. It was working perfectly five minutes ago so why doesn't it work now ? I have given up trying to explain now , I just shrug my shoulders and move on ............

Explains why he was willing to go with you though.

No warranty, it’s a ticking time bomb.

Got a new battery for the bike today, a little trick i do is to put a piece of foam rubber under the battery terminal nuts to hold them in place it also helps start the screw when you have a few extra accessories added to the battery terminals making the screw too short to reach the nut I also bit the bullet and stripped the carbs off the bike to clean them out, couldn't see anything wrong with the main jets but both pilot jets looked blocked so cleaned them out and blew all the fuel lines out. It's now its running on both cylinders again going to have run it at least once a month from now on just to keep it going and maybe one day i'll clean the outside of the carbs LOL

You want a nice Royal Enfield you do. You’ll get a warranty with it and what’s more, you’ll get to claim on it. You can’t say fairer than that can you, I mean think about all the insurance you pay out and how many times have you actually got anything for it?

well done @Marcel i won you it this month , knew buckster would do that .... i stopped any one switching votes ... i am a fucking genius

Bear with me on this because I want to get your take on matters, particularly the ladies on here as I may be missing something. So I drop the car into the garage today for a service. Throw the bike into the back so I can go exploring whilst it’s being done. The garage asks everyone to drop their cars off at 0900 and they will ring you when it’s done. Sometimes it’s before midday if yours has been done early or sometime it’s later if they started it in the afternoon. No problem either way. Ours was ready at 1730 and whilst doing the service they noticed that there was a small fuel leak on one of the fuel pipes, the front pads needed changing soon and the brake fluid has seen better days. They order the parts but can’t get them by end of play today; it make take a day or so. Again, no problem. I collect the car and they will ring me when they’ve got the parts, it could be another day or so, I’ll drop it down and they’ll sort it. No problem in my mind. I get home and tell the missus and she kicks off saying if they’ve done the service they should have ordered the parts (which they have and I told her that) and they should have kept the car until they got the parts and did the rest of the job. My view is that the car is fine to drive as it is so why would I leave it there for a few days? She can’t seem to get my point and now it seems to be all my fault. Regards Confused of Mazarron

Get a Morrisons steak n ale pasty in you, served with peas n mash. Pyrex plate and Saturday mag place mat. Tarts.

I’m pretty much game for most things but drinking and driving ain’t one of them. Won’t even have one beer.

Golf, Cycling, alcohol-free beer? I'm too ashamed to take him to any abandoned villages now!

You fucking cheat @Buckster

No idea Pedro and I certainly wasn’t going fast……….can’t wink at the ladies going too fast

Took the mountain bike out today and got pulled by the police for wearing earphones whilst riding. I had them on across the campo but forgot to remove them along the beach road. Fuckers pulled me over right outside a bar full of people. I know you’ll all be disappointed by the fact that I didn’t get a fine.

wanted to be a prefect at school... settled for being a mod on internet

You now prefer a burgundy cruiser on a fishing dock instead of a trail bike on a dusty dirt road by a high view over proper distance. Or you just voted out because it’s a BMW, and

Great tshirt, are you afraid there might be an avalanche?

Do selfies count? In my defence I was knackered, very overheated and had a pre-puberty moment. I also had the offending earphones in but only whilst I was sitting down and recovering………….honest cunstable.

5 little trees were looking like this a few days ago: They were moved outside with the beginning of summer, and I kept them in a place sheltered from the wind and as much sun exposure as I could at my parent’s place. Now two trees, the biggest one and the third biggest one moved south. The biggest one is now on the ground by my oldest tree from 5 years ago. It’s a very windy area so there’s a helper bar to keep it from bending too much. The other one is going on the ground by my neighbour’s house tomorrow. It’s a very poor quality ground, rocky and dry, in a very windy and dry area. Hope it does well, they’re hardy trees that live in such places except for the wind. Also, we might have a problem with roots interfering with houses in a few years, but I’ll leave that to the people in 2200 to deal with.

Ha ha I can’t believe I shared that. No cornflakes yet but I haven’t checked the labels on the tins in the cupboard yet!

She hasn't emptied cornflakes on the floor yet has she?

There’s a logic to that. If something has worked perfectly for 100% of the time until now, statistics say it should carry on working. Nothing that hasn’t failed should fail, that’s my thought on my motorcycle too @Skippy, does she like wine? Do you? Crack open a couple of bottles and put it behind you, and don’t try to explain car things next time. (My never been married advice)

tell her your just going to the shop ... when you get back slam these down on the table while staring at her... she will get the message

Absolutely Pete, I completely understand why they would do it. What seems to evade me is why my missus would kick off over it. Honestly, I give up.

Drinking and Driving isn't something that is relevant to me! I've been breathalysed twice though.....once in the UK in 1995, and once in Spain in 2006. Obviously nothing registered on the scale! By the surprise on the Spanish cop's face I may well have been the first person to ever get a zero in this country.

Homo.

Ha ha it’s actually alcohol free Pete as I’ve got to collect my car from the garage on the way home. Service day.

There was nothing in the rules and you said they tasted the same afterwards.

Shut it you slag

Why take the risk of getting your collar felt by Plod just to hear more Chas and Dave?

Good, people on mountain bikes using earphones are a menace to society, it starts like this and pretty soon it is total anarchy.

The reply you posted before is 100% a “don’t bother us” thing. So don’t bother them, get your bike somewhere else, put a couple of feelers so your guys call you if anything pops up, and keep an open mind for other options. I don’t know why you would ever want options though, you’ve got the perfect motorcycle

Six has a new van, he can get four bikes and a full class of 11 year old school boys in there.

I got a vote? Did somebody click their mouse in the wrong place?

They are just fucking with you because you are ginger.

Done that and its all clear, i cant remember the last time i started the bike, the MOT ran up in September last year so just been sat in the corner of the garage, going to pull the plugs on the front cylinder to check them first as that's the one that's not running, Tested with the very technical process of placing a wet finger on the header pipes to see which one doesn't hiss LOL

If they’re that drunk, do you think they’ll turn away?

I’m more afraid that the local drivers won’t see me

Fuck is it over i thought the dead line for voting was 10:00, sorry Pedro i forgot to switch vote from Marcel to you

Well I get a Grua when I need one!

Oh yes she likes wine Pedro and so do I but it may be a bit late for that

Yep, I’ve got no issues with the technicalities of what they’ve suggested, the parts were ordered late today once the mechanic had been through the car as part of the service. They just could guarantee they’d be here in time to do it today as it was late afternoon when he’d finished the service and passed the details to the admin guy. I guess they just didn’t want to leave us without a car when it was perfectly fine to drive.

Strange today with all the car stuff going on! Here's a clip going over to the animals this morning......and I had to call into the garage to tell them about the car. Burnt off a Gypsy on a moped on the way. Ran into Manolo the Goat Man outside! Lovely old boy.......nearly 80 and walks miles every day with his goats. He speaks a dialect of Spanish that is unique to him. We're used to it now, but stick someone who's learned formal Spanish in University in front of him and they wouldn't have a fucking clue what he's going on about! Then I had to see Antonio the mechanic in his office! For those of you not familiar with dealing with the Spanish, you'll notice their hands going all the time and the body gestures that go along with it. They all do it! I think Italians are the same @boboneleg? Get a bunch of them together and it's like you're surrounded by people doing sign language!
