If you got off your bike and walked somewhere then post the pic here. I went on my first deliberate walk today. The planned route according to Google maps was “mostly flat” LIES!! But it was pretty, I did like it and will do it again soon. Thought of @yen_powell with his appreciation of steps and old architecture. Mostly flat.. what bollo! Doesn’t look that steep till you notice how far into the incline Mr Slowly is lent Yep definitely flat

Yep that BSA Goldstar isn’t looking quite so shiny now

Oh I’ll bet he’ll use it. On closed private roads

I get it. Tastes good done right

What you on about? Slap head pics are the most posted pics on here

Cheesy (sort of it’s curds) n chips with gravy. Marcels is a posh version. Cheese (cheddar) n chips n gravy is eaten in the UK too. Usually after midnight by people tipping out of the pub https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poutine

Click n collect mate click n collect. There’s a locker with your number on it waiting for you to pick it up on the way to/from work

The word permit for driving isn’t known here apart from things like a ‘parking permit’ which you are allocated or buy to be allowed to park in a certain place. Points for bad parking? Hell no just a fine. Did your dad not take the points as he was driving?!

Is a permit a driving license and if it is then how does parking badly effect it? How does it work?

Something that the mere description of could make you ill

Don’t knock it til you’ve tried it Are you wearing waterproof trousers over the top? They make a difference. And eBay (soz know you’re trying to stay off that site ) sell cheap fleece lined waterproof trousers. Payed about £15 for mine, very feckin warm.

I wouldn’t presume to tell you anything. I can ask for an instruction manual if you like?

You can tell his little girl and his wife.. who he’s still married to. Ooo does that sting

Nope. What word? Nothing to see here. Move on.

Melted the last pair.

Ah shite you had to go n bring that up. Hang on I’m going to get my darkest sunglasses.

Hang around here for too long needing to wash is a given

Hmm so in the uk that’s about 4-6 weeks a year. I used to agree but changed my view after waiting for good weather, that just didn’t happen for way too long. Eventually I sorted out good warm gear that took little time to add and decided the peace and happiness motorcycling brings was worth the few extra minutes suiting up and stripping off.

And definitely don’t Google ‘furry hand muff’ because you have a natty Victorian style wool cape that would look well with a traditional hand muff. Where your mind is when you type that into a search engine and where the resulting images will take you could scar you for life. Probably.. maybe.. just something I heard…

Looking good though eh?! I’m a seriously frozone person so I tried a cabillion bits of bike attire promising warmth that really didn’t deliver. I heartily recommend snowmobile suits. Designed for superfeckin freezin temps. If you get the right sort they’re waterproof too. But they’re expensive and the second choice coming in waaaay cheaper (but does need waterproofs over the top in rainy weather) is coldstore work gear. Designed to be worn in sub zero freezers all day available cheap in all sorts of combos. Easy to get over a mobike jacket - assuming your not 5XL.

Oh the accessories, the accessories, hard not to have your head turned by the accessories

I find the mudguard pretty good at stopping detritus getting flung up over the back. Maybe wait n see how you find what you’ve already got? But don’t wait til your can’t undo mud caked bags before ordering
