  1. Thanks for all your support folks. So, the cardiologist couldn’t see any signs of arrhythmia in the ECG she had today but has seen the results of when she’s had an episode and it’s evident during those periods. He’s now referred her to an arrhythmia specialist so they can try and get to the bottom of the matter. At least it shouldn’t take long to get an appointment but in the meantime she’s to remain on beta blockers and avoid certain foodstuffs and drinks…….no alcohol

  7. Went to pick up my rental bike today, for tomorrow’s trip. We are going to Italy, and there might be shopping involved. Plus, I am likely to ride through showers quite a bit, so was happy to have a very practical big topbox. Got home, had a good look at the bike and didn’t bring myself to ride all around with that thing in the back, took the box and the mounting plate off and am carrying an almost empty bag instead. Tyres are definitely gay, though.

  8. Knocked out a short overnight trip with the wife on the Gold Wang to Duyrango, Colroado. Cruised through the Back Canyon of the Gunnison National Park along the way. The Canyon isn't all that deep, buit it's about 50 miles or so in length. No other traffic at all...

  12. Weird as Hell place that the wife picked for dinner (fuel station hot dogs would have been better). She had the planked salmon and I went with some kind of flat bread pizza. 3 beers with some kind of dip with bread chips and I was out the door for $161.00. A bargain!

  29. No, bought it from the guy that did but he then lost interest so lots of kinks to iron out. It had less than 300 miles on it. As I can’t afford a real one this is the closest im going to get. It’s great fun, tho ( when it’s working) I doubt it would beat a Tesla away from the lights.

  38. That’s a nice thing, but if I had the choice it would rather be white and red. Or the R80 with the tiny fairing and red seat.

  39. Plus, since the gearbox is coming out, the bearings will be replaced and things will be inspected for wear and changed accordingly, and the timing chains will also be inspected and if over half of slack tolerance they’ll be changed too. Bike should be good for a while after all that, at 122.000 now.
