I have two singing gigs this weekend, Saturday night at Lanivet and Sunday afternoon at Lerryn. Be good to earn some money to pay off what we spent on our P A system. No time for much time on the bikes this week end.

Found this picture of what the Clay Country looked like back in the 1970's. The Sky Tip I have pictured with my bike is a remnant of this. I remember this landscape well when I was a kid.

Out on the the Tidler to get the dogs dinner.

Yeah I said as much to them, road sense is transferable from 2 wheels to 4. They are talking about moving out and growing up and all that stuff. I have told them that growing up is very expensive and to hang around here where the bills are paid. We shall see.

Just ridden How Highs Kawasaki death trap into St Austell for him. Took it to his dad’s so that he can sell it for him. I think Shadow has convinced him he wants to learn to drive and get a car. . I told him he could store it one of my sheds but he wants to sell it. I can see his point as he had hardly ridden it for weeks, I think his last off has blown his confidence. I told him there was no rush but you can’t put an old head on young shoulders. Only two bikers in the house now

Not so much really, Cornwall will be overrun with Holibobs, so everywhere will be packed and the roads congested. I'll wait for them all to go back before doing much out. I have fork seals to do on my Sprint but I can't see it happening so quiet time at home with the family for me. We will have a family meal on Sunday. which does not happen that much now the kids are adults. Might pop up to Dartmoor on Monday as the forecast is good, now you have planted the idea @Pedro.

Congratulations @boboneleg

Been out obsessively washing things again. Just went out to wash the seagull shite off the Mrs’s X3 but got carried away. Knackered now and prolly have sunstroke.

Yeah I completely get what you mean, for a radius of around 5 miles of where I live it's all 20,30 and 40 mph and the 125 is fine for that but when you get on a main road I do feel very vulnerable. Not sure if I will keep the bike much after the summer but I don't want to get rid before Shadow has a chance to change her mind. She hasn't been out the house on her own for months but I am hoping she will work past that at some point. I want the bike here if she does. In the mean time I will keep it clean and used for local errands.

Fuck off, what facts, the photo says it all. You are a fine one to speak about judgement with all of the offensive bollocks you post on here. I have no issue for the need to kill a large predator in the wrong environment for genuine reasons. It's the need to display the trophy photos that I think speaks volumes about the individual. It's the same as those cunts that kill elephants so they can post with its cut off tail. It's pathetic.

Out and about on the tiddler this morning. Did the Fowey cross loop and throughly enjoyed it. Only time I felt a bit vulnerable was joining the A390 when it’s lack of acceleration feels abit exposed. Bouncing around between 4th and 5th gear preserving momentum is fun . Who would have thought getting the most out of 11 BHP ant 40 to 60 mph could be so. Only thing that does need planning is the lack of braking compared to the other bikes. Sky tip in the distance.

This is a first I absolutly agree with every word of that.

She’s says so, but she is going through some stuff at the moment so I don’t really know. I will keep the bike around until her insurance runs out in October to give her every chance to change her mind.

Out for a last ride on the Sprint before it goes back in the healing shed. New vacuum fuel tap, new fork seals and front brake strip and clean. Down to Meva and stopped in the market on the way back. Back in the shed. To be fix d My Dailey ride for the nexts few days. Certainly a contrast to the Sprint something like 100 kg’s lighter I think.
