At a loose end today so thought I would pop up to Exeter to have a look at the shiny things in Bridge Motorcycles. A big multi dealership. Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki, BMW, BSA and Triumph. Never been before and fancied a jolly. Really big selection of big late model bikes. I liked the look of this AT plus there a couple of Z1000’s kitted out for touring that I liked. Not that I am planning to change but it is nice to look. Also took a real shine to this Tiger 660. I wonder if they do lowering kits. I had a spud in the on-site Cafe the headed out across Devon to get to Bude on the North Coast. Really nice ride on some lovely biking roads. Bude was as lovely as ever. It made a change coming into it from the North side. Coffee ice cream went down well. Trip stats plus a sore ass. Also the Mrs has gone dark cause I said I would only be a couple of hours

I know mate it is crazy, if I had ,my way I would sell up and move to Ireland or somewhere similar but the Mrs won't go. That comment is only slightly tongue in cheek, working class life in Britain is pretty difficult nowadays. And I am fortunate that I got my place before things went completely nuts.

You wouldn't believe it mate honestly gone completely nuts. Good example in the village that my Mrs comes from. Old run down cottage on the outskirts of the village. Knocked down and two large boxy wood covered monstrosities built on the plot. Both sold for 1.2 million each within days. Nice comfy 3 bd places but nothing outside apart from some parking and a small green patch. In Fowey, where I live, ex local authority houses are fetching £300,000. Sounds all well and good, my place is paid for, but my kids have very little chance of making a life here. Rents running £1000 to £1600 a month. I can see the town becoming a giant Air B&B in the next 10 years. It's no wonder the businesses down here struggle to find staff, nobody of working age can afford to live here and those that can' aren't gonna work for minimum wages.

Really not sure that is possible

PC800 V-Twin?

Learn’t something today

I think around 4500 ish now. Haven't looked for ages but it must be around that. Have a close look at that 450's handlebars and see matey nav roll. Made me laugh

I know it caught my Eye. I have a video of some of them leaving, the sound was glorious. I will see if I can post a link on here. Trip stats

Needed to get out for a bimble to clear my head so I headed west down to Lamorna Cove, like in the song. Only about 60 miles but I chose to go down the coast via Falmouth, Helston and then Penzance. Still packed out down here. Newly Wed and nearly Dead season now the Kids are back to school. Got the full bondage gear on my bike, well panniers and shoes at least. After Lamorna I traveled back through St Buryan to St Just. Where I happened on a rally of classic bikes. Then rode back through Trencom to St Ives.

I seem to be in your crosshairs lately

Pissed Bloke LOL

Leathered up thinking I was in ChiPs at Abergavenny Bus Station circa 2000, ish

Yep . And didn't those things hold the water when it rained. We used to call it trench Ass.

Yeah that to, especially when wet. I had a Wolf Leather for years but got to big for that so bought the Richa I have now. I remember the dress code, 3/4 Boots with white socks, white wooly pully, white open face, leather and cut off. Levis with a fuck off great belt and buckle. cringe looking at those old photos.

I Still got a leather but I don't wear it often. Hot in the summer, cold in the winter. I love it though and will never get rid.

I made it 20 mins into the first episode and thought Fuck That, annoying people.

What about tomorrow? Sweaties Vs Saffers? Heart says Scotland head says SA Wales Vs Figi? Probably Figi. Cornish Lad playing for Figi. Sam Matavasi from Camborne.

Wasn't a quality performance but streetwise, they won ugly but they won. The team looked like they actually wanted to be there and showed a lot of heart, you can forgive a lot if they do that. A massive improvement and hope, which is what probably will break the fans hearts in the end. Like you say a W against Japan and things start to build. Momentum gathers On a different track I thought the Aussies were lucky, more composure and discipline from Georgia and that couid have been a much closer game. They butchered so many chances.

Easy lads. Finally some composure from England. Best they have played for months and months. Ford playing a blinder, Manu showing some form at last. Flanking aside. The Argies have completely lost their heads which has certainly helped. Woefully ragged. Won't go on about the cards, hopefully Curry won't get a ban. Refreshing result. There is hope after all. Hate that bloody black kit. Random thoughts. Been a long day watching a lot of rugby

it was in the end. I like the spirit the Namibians showed. Not sure what we learn't about Ireland or Romania apart from the massive gap between them.

I would love to see Georgia do a number on the Aussies, like you say they will definitely rough them up in the forwards. Quite looking forward to that game. If England turn up it could be a close game but I have this feeling they are going to be spanked

Whos winning tomoz? Australia vs Gorgia. Aussies Ireland vs Romania. Bog Stompers England vs Argentina. Argies

Bloody good game. France 29 NZ 13. Willie did a number on DeGrute scrum time. All Blacks and Smith made Dupont earn his keep tonight. FROGS BE HOPPING.
