Send him an incoherent warning PM Clive.......that seems to be the modern method of dealing with things.

No.....I said there was loads of cunts on here!

A lot of people being called Cunts, Bruce showing his ass to Michelle again, Fred fell down some steps and even managed to get it on vid, I'm now a Dead Man Walking because I don't carry a Preppers Survival Kit when I take my bike to the bike wash, and my Beemer's getting a Puck fitted next week!

What you reckon @Clive?

Brilliant Russ......looks great! And all vids need to be linked to YouTube......and then they stream in. But you mentioned salt on the roads? We don't have any of that here so there must be a variation in your province. @Skippy.......they don't put salt down in Murcia either do they?

Good to see you Rich.....I had @Swagman and @Clive standing by ready to go in and break you out of the other place! I'd hate to see a young guy like you get bitchslapped by The Man as has happened to @Six30

You certainly look to me like you're pretty bloody capable offroad Fred! Steps of course are a different matter! Maybe you should think of strapping on one of @Bruce's Survival Kits when you attempt those steps again?

I go out to Style and Profile in good weather conditions Bruce......I'm not going into battle in some third world country. In 1971.....I first got out on a bike and rode! 50 years later I'm still doing it. Never broken a bone, never totalled a bike, and never made an insurance claim. And not hit the deck since 78. Yet now I'm a Dead Man Walking!

I see what you mean! But if that is a concern then there's plenty of options to give additional security. There's GPS's with accident alarm features and even apps for your smartphone! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.bikersos&hl=en&gl=US

I'm not playing the hero.....I'm telling you the reality of things. I get told about riding alone now on FB, Bob gets told, Fred gets told.......I'm sure those advisories don't all come with the caveat......"only when you're offroading". The serious carnage invariably happens onroad........the more minor stuff happens offroad!

It's a man's life on a modern Tomos for sure!

Tool?

Nobody did back in the 70's Pedro.....everybody just got on with their lives. My experience tells me it's much safer to ride alone.......I don't have to allow for fuckwits riding with me. I saw some carnage back in those days......even two mates getting killed! One beheaded and the other impaled through railings. So from 79 on I did my own thing.......and I'm still here. Also, bear in mind that it wasn't till the mid 90's that Mobiles came on the scene.....prior to that you really were on your own!

If I'd only gone out with other riders over the last 20 years I'd only have ridden about a dozen times. And that dozen times would have been a combination of you, Bruce, Ren, Dell, and Lyn. That's not exactly the stuff that dreams are made of is it? I think everybody these days has gone to the extreme of being over-cautious about everything. It's one thing to anticipate danger within a situation......but we're at the stage now where everybody imagines danger everywhere.

I'm mentally as sharp as I've ever been! Can't say the same physically though.

You misunderstand......I don't want to retire! I'm not going to throw away all the years of work that I've put into the business. If somebody came along with a big money buyout for it then I might think about it.......but that's highly unlikely to happen. Particularly due to the Political events of the last 5 years. Which I can't discuss.......otherwise I'll have to send myself an incoherent warning PM.

I don't have the time for two bikes though Lionel! If I was retired then yes.......but that scenario will never happen.

But my fender will get dirty then! I don't want dirt on anything! Not even on my Puck......and especially not on my Beak!

Can't stand facial hair......makes me itch. Did have a bright ginger moustache for a short while 40 years ago though. Till I saw a photo of myself with it and realised I looked like a fucking twat!

John Le Mesurier.......who played the same role in everything he was in! So Sid James as well!

Says the man who's building momentum on a daily basis towards TOTY 2021.

Seaman Stains is going to have an incoherent warning PM if he keeps on Lionel! Tell him @Tym

You quoted me you fucking bellend!
