Afternoon at Leeds castle , big fire work display in a bit

What with storm Ciara and then Domingo the atlantic depressions and the shitty weather they generate here, despite being 500 kilo;eters inland fro; the atlantic, were causing my own minin depression so I said " merde!" to it and profiting from an easing of the wind and rain, geared up and went for ride. I actually managed to dodge most of the rain, though not al of it, and rode on either bone dry windswept roads or half flooded windswept roads having arrived after the deluge. In fact, it was all so windswept that I have a windswept hair look INSIDE my helmet... I managed to do 140 ish km mostly around the backroads. I took a couple of pics while it wasn't raining. 12 century North gate in Joigny

I want the opposite so I can try riding the little WR in it. I had to use the donkey last time , February 2019

I gave in to my motorcycle seat fetish this week, i now have two seats for every bike i own again LOL, Picked up a seat concepts low comfort seat for the Beta in the week hoping to test ride it tomorrow The rad guards i picked up had to go back as they had built them wrong, the front of the guards were upside down he says he will have replacements this Tuesday and post them out to me, that will be the last of the spending on it other than consumables. I've been keeping a record and i have spent £1200 on parts on top of the cost of the bike to get it to where i want it, although there is still the LED headlight, that might be a Christmas present to myself maybe LOL

Got out today to try my new seat out ended up the same place as last weekend but with much more time to play with so rode most of the lanes in the area, spent over five hours riding and cannot believe how much difference there is between the stock seat and the seat concepts one, I got home with no monkey butt whatsoever, only regret is i should have gone for the standard height seat instead of the low one there's about 25mm difference between them, the low one is ultra comfy so the standard height one must be like an armchair. Almost every lane had water running along them took some photos of the best of them. The heavens opened in the afternoon but it didn't matter as i was on my way home and everything was soaking anyway. The low sun flickering through the trees and glaring off the water on the roads and trails made riding difficult in places as i couldn't see where i was going, Thoroughly enjoying the new bike even though its the same it rides different just seems easier to ride. Some wet photos of the day. looking down to where i am in the photo above And this is why i have such a heavy pipe guard gave it a hell of a donk on a rock, pipe would have needed blowing out it it wasn't fitted for sure This was last weekends outing but the same lane ridden today, made sure i missed the rock today

Had a couple of hours out on the bike this morning, stayed local and made the most of the fabulous roads along the coast and up and over the mountains. Having made a few tweeks to the bike for my trip I thought I’d better check it was okay…….no dramas.

Nice little frost this morning...didn't check the temp...but it feels like -6 c.

Palestine has taken over... marches every where over here , chanting and screaming , calling for Jihad, fighting with police... Fuck off to Palestine and fight.

I drew the short straw, my father is bald and out of my two brothers and sister i'm the only one that ended up loosing hair they all have the same hair they left school with only grey fucking twats all of them

On her mazda the front right brake pipe is starting to perish and on the jag the rear pads were below the legal limit which is a surprise since they were changed last year so nothing too big, got new pads and new pipe for 44 quid and they get the job of replacing them, the jag has an electronic handbrake and whilst I could do it I don't really have the will to be fucking around on the driveway in the wet/cold

No I have the day off tomorrow but both cars failed the mot yesterday so I'm off to ecp to pick up the bits to repair them and I'll be taking the circuitry route home so I'll stop for a proof pic for you layabouts

Yeah but he's not too much of a pussy

Two of these and 2 cheeseburgers … £38

Right time to pack n leave. Wish me luck, I’m gonna feckin need it!

Why wait?

But they say now that it comes from the mother's side. Is that right @Slowlycatchymonkey? At 35 I had a full head of hair, but my eldest boy at 35 is bald. But being married to that fucking thing may have been a contributory factor.

I remember being a 28 waist now i'm a 34. still got a few pairs of original wrangler jeans in 28 waist hoping one day to get back into them but i think only a fatal disease is going to get me anywhere near there LOL

Same here mate, at 30 I was still at 10 stone . Then I got married and with Italian food coming at me every night your hardly likely to lose weight

Take that pair of morons @Six30 and @busabeast with you! And lose them somewhere!

Get the WR over here Bob we can give it a good work out.

Senior moment Lionel ?

I'm loving the national speed limit sign in that lane, I hope you didn't go over 60 mph along there

Pete don't look....

Photo or it never happened ............

It's actually not has bad has you think...around town the averages 9.1 l per 100km...highway at 120kph average it averages 13l per 100km....it's got this cylinders deactivation tec...it shutdown cylinders has needed...few years ago chevy would go from eight to four cylinders depending on engine load but it was annoying has hell..you could feel it when it was switching ...this is a new design...it can run on two cylinders and you can't feel a thing...even the sound of the engine is muted somehow though some fancy exaust work.

Just an itchy cock

It's a 6.2l naturally aspirated engine ...same engine platform that was used in the corvette a few years ago...it's detune a little of corse...this one has a borla exhaust from factory...pumps out about 430 hp.

Chevy trucks are pretty well dominant around here...anybody that knows anything...still the easiest truck to work on...it's just still a simple design...you can still swap out the plugs in 15 min flat....some take hours like the Ford wich notoriously breacks the sparkplug in the head....I'm no longer doing them at the shop..waste of time and money. They all have there little twerks... Chevys have had some oil pump issues. Ford are just garbage...Twin turbo car engines basically...most serious repairs the cab of the truck has to be removed...just a awful design...you definitely don't want to keep it after the warranty runs out. Dodge Rams..a pig on gaz...manifold studs always breaking in the heads...we must do one of at least once a week...and the rust like crazy.

I had a Chevy once.....Well not really....it was a rebadged Daewoo... it was crap anyway.

Yep that

Did have but it was a serious fucked up retard ... some African women wanted it, so sold the twat ... and the money paid for a 4 week holiday to Florida, happy days

That's a nice looking machine wonder of they will do a dual sport version and looking at the specs this is a prime example of why i can't get my head around the weight of the Himalayan. it's 151KG and 650cc that's 44KG less than the new Himalayan why ? To sum it up Ducati Himalayan

Nice one Chris , loving that gatehouse

Nice one Fred, it looks pretty challenging in places

now that's a bash plate

Nice one Fred! And I've started the thread for you!

Nice one Chris! It was still blowing like hell here today......doesn't help that we're at 3000ft!

Eyes out pants down

He's eating lots so he's ready for next weeks Rugby

That's a great location. We saw Pavarotti there in 2004 , it was a pretty magical backdrop.

Fire water ,you couldn’t cope with it..

Just get out there you old twat

I believe these pickup trucks are just to large for big cities and the price of them alone and having them converted to right hand side drive would be ridiculous....think they probably pull out for just lack of sales including there line up of cars.

The scoot and the Dacia are useless in those conditions..

It’s surprising how it mounts up isn’t it.

All numbers.
