Getting on and off a Bike when you're old and fucked!
XTreme replied to XTreme's topic in MOTORCYCLE CHAT
Yeh.....I was going to say that. Only somebody really light could get away with that. @Tym.......we want to see you get on the other side without using the footpeg! -

The area of Swansea where when they get turned down for a council house transfer they burn their current one down! Always used to put my Xmas shopping list into a guy from Penlan! He'd always come up with the items! -

The wife is very interested in guns! Not sure whether it's a good idea for a Penlan girl to be brandishing them about really. -

This situation has been exacerbated in recent years as the motorcycling demographic has got older.......while bikes have got so much taller. Back in the 70's nobody ever said they had trouble getting on their bike.........the trouble they had then was staying on their bike. -

Just told the wife......she wants guns waving! -

While waving guns around is what we want! Extra points for firing them! -

What with you on the sidestand and @Specs doing his Monty Python "Ministry of Funny Walks".......I think the pair of you need to stay in Wales. You can't cross the border and do that stupid shit in front of the Hanoverians.....we'll never hear the end of it! -

Your neighbours must be looking out the windows and pissing themselves Alan! I'm sure @boboneleg is going to come along with an unscrew his leg vid soon! -

Sounds like some weird Cardiff thing to me! Do people look at him stupid when he does it? I'm interested to see what this looks like though.... @Specs......what's this weird shit you do? -

Why does he bend over and grab his foot? Can't he just lift his leg up? -

Seriously? I'm surprised.......because I didn't think any great flexibility was involved in what I did. I suppose that I was reasonably flexible when I was young.....but at 66 I would have thought that would be long gone. -

You haven't reached the geriatric stage yet Fred.......bookmark it for when you do! -
By request here's a vid of me getting on and off a Bike......may be some help to others who are old and fucked! It's impossible to describe in words what I do......in the same way as it's impossible to describe how I ride or what I do when I ride. It's just done automatically. Hence the vid! Turn the sound up though cos I'm some distance from the camera! I'm not telling you it's going to solve all or any of your issues......it depends very much how restricted you are in your movements. In my case I've got stretched MCL's in both knees.....so sideways knee movement is out of the question for me. Been that way for 30 years so I'm used to it. So here we go......bear in mind I'm 66 and not as nimble as I was! But this still works for me!

That's actually a very good point Tym!

I never cease to be horrified at the state of my generation of Brit that I see there.........as those are the only times I'm ever exposed to them. I don't just mean physically in a state.....but mentally. They're never happy, never grateful for what they've got, and are permanently fucking moaning. All while dressed like Kenneth Williams in "Carry on Camping". Totally out of their depth here.......most can't even take a shit without having a translator with them. When you consider that it was Britain that virtually conquered and colonised the world in the past.......you have to wonder WTF has happened to the gene pool?

Dirt Bikes And Dual-Sport Motorcycles Sales Thrive In The U.S.
XTreme replied to DirtBag's topic in MOTORCYCLE CHAT
There's a real boom going on here as well......I always keep an eye on the Dealer Ads and any Jap stuff or Beemer is going out the door within a day or so! -
You've heard me mentioning Albox many times over the years......it's Tea Bag Central! It's a fairly big town by Spanish standards and looks very nice, but is let down by the fact that it's attracted loads of Brits and Moros! I feel sorry for the Spanish being saddled with that dross! Anyway.....the main street where most of the shops are built is on a slight incline......here's me there in 2014..... Well see that street? There's not one drain on it! Why's that? This is Spain.........and common sense is pretty thin on the ground here! It don't rain there often (normally it's very hot and humid).......but when it does it's usually very, very heavy! And apparently that street looks like a fucking Tsunami!

This was in Sevilla yesterday......we've had nothing here! I wonder what the holidaymakers there made of this.......watch what happens at 0:20. ?

Food pics are interesting for us @Pedro...........so keep posting them. You're in no danger of me or @Sir Fallsalot nicking your grub if we ever hook up.

Scam then! I remember thinking at the time it was too good to be true!

I remember seeing that when it came out.......what went wrong?
