My brother who's quite an accomplished spanner twirler as he's a helicopter crew chief....is also an avid spanish motorcycle fan. He's had a handful of Bultacos in the past & nowadays he's been building an Ossa 250 trials bike from scratch. Customized to fit his 6'-2" frame & following along the lines of a Mick Andrews replica. He just sent me this pic of his work in progress....I might add that he built the frame, airbox, kick start lever & pipe(next on the task list) himself, which is a pretty light package....& those gold wheels are the stock rims from my XT6 SuMo. He amazes me with his mad skills...

Cooling off after a round trip to Costa with my youngest. Most expensive chain lube I didn’t get. Only popped out for lube but they never had any so then the Costa monkey was in want. To be fair she is good company but it always seems to cost me.

Reach destination.

Looks like another glorious day here...I'm off Monday...so I'm definitely going riding..

Well it does.....and now you've managed to piss me off your vote has been switched to @Sir Fallsalot

Life is so much easier with a centre stand......so I gave the chain a really good clean today. And, for the first time since I've had the bike, I could check the steering head bearings properly.

2 months no entry ... you fucking lightweight.

Been labeled as a Potcher by Pete over the years.... but again, thats coming from a guy who has a definite spanner-phobia....

Where I live! A guy I know on FB was very inspired by my pics and vids......so he left the UK last week to ride down on his T7. Got into Granada province, pulled up somewhere and lost his footing, and over the bike went on his leg. In a very remote area! He was pinned down by it, but eventually managed to get his injured leg free. Then he tried picking the bike up and fucked his back up as well. So he's a bit battered now! No idea on his whereabouts at the moment......maybe the Midgets got him? Thing is, riding here isn't a walk in the park like it appears to be!

She is probably hoping you will get something other than a Honda to offset the gay.

Heavy metal and Prog Rock just did not come up on my radar....was not into music in the 70,s 80,s

Lemon drizzle cake wot I baked today!

that center stand looks mighty gay.

We hadn't started yet! The thing with this place, the lettuce, the onions, the potatoes is all grown in the backyard. And the beef is grown less than 20km away. It's just great!

Went out to photograph the dawn and there were a couple of roos at the end of the street, it doesn't get much more Australian than that.

Because Apple doesn’t play nicely with the Honda Roadsync App I haven’t been able to properly use the connectivity on my Hornet. It won’t let me use Spotify or Google Maps which pisses me off. I like things to work. Anyway I’m invested in iPhones and Apple, I know it is a choice but I don’t like the Android interface. Anyway to stubborn to give in and not use the bikes tech I have bought a cheapie Samsung to use exclusively with my bike. Before anyone asks I have always had two phones, one for work and my own. To be honest for £99 it works pretty well, the only thing it can’t do is digital pay but that’s not a problem for me. Now have to spend a couple of hours pairing it to the bike and my helmet coms. If anyone is the slightest bit interested it is a Samsung A05s.

A bit rude.

The operative word there is “she”.

Oh come on, don’t vote for the wankpanzer.

I have a Commodore64 with the cassette drive, floppy disk, a printer and multiple broken joysticks at my parents

I’m voting for @JustaPor, I like the light in his picture. Also I think the CB500F deserves some love. Very capable machine.

Must admit whenever we get a coffee at work the clinician is always in the chair to pay, but to be fair they do earn 4 x what I do. I don't take the piss but that's just how it is with Kernow Health.

250 km straight shot one way...imagine will be doing a little detour on the way back..

No with Dan...the Harleys boys aren't going ...anyway they are just to slow to keep up...and they want to stop at every coffee shops they see...

This is why I wouldn’t trust you to change a spark plug, potching twat.

Did I miss this again? I was going to post a picture from todays ride but never mind.

The weather is looking good here at the moment i'm not going to even look at the forecast as they get it wrong so often it should be called the weather guess, it's not hard to predict when you think about it, the question is simple is it going to rain or isn't it you could flip a coin and get it right 50% of the time they must be using a double headed coin though and betting on tails

This is my cat, Pepe, he was so tired that he fell asleep halfway around the corner.

And yet, it still does

that shouldn't matter if i piss you off you twat

My vote went to @Six30! But I can't guarantee it'll stay that way because the annoying cunt is bound to piss me off before the Poll ends!

I have just watched part 2 of Rebel Moon.....well I watched some of it.

With Apple stuff, the only time you see the light is when you've got your head between your knees, waiting for them to Roger you again!

No ill get a few shots.. Long story...we're going to deliver some supplies to Dan's inlaws they just had a baby ..premature by four months ..they were on their way for shopping or something and she started contraction ..they are at a hospital 2.5 hours away...so it's a good excuse for a bike ride...

Went down to fuel up! Look at that fucking sky......it's like Wales in November!

I was just sick in my mouth reading that, but won’t rant I know not everyone sees the light

No......it's the angle of the pic! Loads of adjustment there and no slack when you pull it back off the sprocket! I haven't needed to adjust it since I've had it, and it seems most stock chains (if maintained properly) will go for in excess of 50K kms. And I've only got 20K.

it could be more Australian... if one of the Roos's was getting bummed by an Ozzie drunk on Fosters

When my son was born we did not need a alarm clock until he was about 7 months old, because he hardly slept at night, during the day we could vac up around him, but during the night!...just a burp or fart and he was awake, for the rest of the night...

Raining here today aswell, got to drop my mum off at the train station as she's off back home today, then back home go to tesco to do the shopping. Will be getting myself a nap this afternoon since I have been awake all night with Leo, he has colic and would settle then out of nowhere just start screaming, he settled at around 3am then skye was up at 5.45am so safe to say I've had fuck all sleep so I'll be grabbing an hour or two this afternoon

I don't recall seeing a Ride Report?
