  1. He was a good rider him and his mate on a triumph scrambler kept up with me on my 650 all day, when i was talking too him he said he was watching me closely and if my wheels left the ground he had to jam on the anchors pretty damn quick or he was going to be in pain
  2. You know they work off road as well i led a group out a few years ago and one of the guys had one that was the first time i saw one
  3. Not on them gay tyres Bob

  7. That's a nice beast probably the only beemer i'd buy
  8. I had to do it in two stages for some reason i couldn't add any more photos on the first part, i did ask @XTreme for help but there was no fucking support as usual so had to sort it myself this computer shit is easy
  9. Stopped to say hello to these fellers This one was giving me the eye Had a little more off this one Stopped to have a look at the church in St Nicholas nice to see a lot of the new graves there are of people who died in their 80's and 90's It looks a bit odd because i had to take a panoramic to fit it all in And this is the war memorial just across the green from the church And down to the ehh Downs where they use this to transmit the shit we have on TV And another nice easy lane Onto Wenvoe to look at the next couple of lanes i wanted to check out all nice and easy with no bloody gates Hard to believe this is just outside the big city Cardiff A bit rocky down here Into Llancarfan another beautiful village i chickened out at this ford it looked bloody deep And this one looked easy but it was like riding on ice concrete covered in slime Stopped for a drink and the local plod to check me out when a scene from quadrophenia past by mods everywhere i snapped these when they pulled in for fuel I would have chased after them and kicked them off but i was going this way Found this place in Boverton whata waste i tried to get in but it was a bit too public for me to jump over the fence Had to cut my ride short after the last lane ther was a big log i had to squeeze past and new my footrest would hit it so took my foot off but didn't expect it to catch my gear leaver After that i could only select first and neutral so started limping home but first was soooo slow pulled over to see if i could sort it. While lying on the floor somebody stopped on a Harley it was someone that recognised me from work and of all the people to stop it had to be him. He bought his Harley about a year ago and when he told me i said to him don't expect me to stop if i see you broken down on the side of the road which he had great pleasure in reminding me what a cunt I bent it enough with the little tools i had to get it selecting all the gears so got home ok
  10. Decided to go to the vale of Glamorgan for a run this afternoon not far from me and just to check out some lanes i haven't ridden in years First lane i wanted to check out was just off a place called Bynsadler nice easy lane starts by crossing the M4 And then followed by a nice easy dirt track Next is in Bonvilston a grass track soft in places, easy enough today but can be quite slippery when wet This one is in the same area there's big money down this way you can tell when your driveway looks like this
  11. That just about sums up this place
  12. I bet the mess your arse left after riding through it was worse
  13. Basically with the ABS on you wont stop on a slippery surface off road as the ABS system will take the control of the brakes off you. A locked wheel will eventually slow you down and stop due to friction. With ABS on, your wheels will keep on turning so on a slippery surface down hill you will start picking up speed rather than slowing down, ABS needs some sort of grip to work properly. Have you tried ABS down hill in snow its bloody scary you cant turn it off in my car i know from experience i would be better off without it in the snow. All of this is about slow speeds and trying to stop rather than stopping you locking things up at higher speeds in an emergency
  14. Good stuff @MooN
  15. I'm having the weight related problems with diabetes. never been that big really but eating food is more of a hobby for me, i like it but i like nothing i should be eating. Just so hard trying to break the habit, If the fridge door had an odometer on it, it would had clocked enough miles to go around the world this week. I know there's fuck all in there for me to eat but that doesn't stop me from looking
  16. I just re read that and i am now unsure as to whether your referring to the cleanliness of the bike or the fucked sprocket after all your the first to say you know fuck all about anything mechanical
  17. We have a lot of gravel roads put in for the wind turbines here in some great areas but we are not allowed to use them
  18. before last weekends ride i checked front and rear tyres for splits or damage front and rear tyre pressures front and rear wheel bearings for play front and rear brake pads for wear suspension bearings for play Steering head bearings for play chain tension Oiled the chain Checked the carb for water and shit in the float bowl checked the air filter checked the lights Checked my spares but missed the front sprocket for some reason, but it probably didn't need dentures when i left
  19. No Its only lost 3 teeth it has another 12
  20. I was checking my XR over tonight and can say when things look like this its pretty much fucked
  21. And to think I was going to vote for you which would have taken it into extra time the kind of excitement this place needs. Next time i'll just go with my gut instinct and vote for Tym
