Sir Fallsalot

I was up at 04:30 had to take the wife and her friend to Cardiff to catch a bus to London for the weekend. Apart from the getting out of bed the drive there and back was a pleasure. 26 minutes each way the same journey Monday morning at rush hour will be an hour each way if you’re lucky

A lame move you cheeky git ending the submission thread before the end of the month could be considered a lame move

I keep vehicles so long i probably haven't had that many cars and bikes combined

I think he was wearing an air bag vest not 100% sure though, those rocks don't look very forgiving

Fecking toys are what they are

More local lane maintenance for me today, done something about the rock step to the bridge at the ford in Ynysybwl just got to see what happens when the river is in flood next I had to test it out after on the bike and by god it was cold. Wasted my time digging some of it as it was too narrow with the tree there so had to make a new path to join after the tree

@Pedro so what are your thoughts on this

Come on Bob you know that's my arse don't you recognise the jumper lol

Nute if he can hang on another hour

So @Pedro since we are on about rules just to clear things up if you close the Submission thread before the end of the month does that mean any photos taken after that qualify for the next bike of the month even if they weren't taken in that month

you can go through i'll take the bridge lol i hate that ford it's not that deep but the rocks in there are slippery as ice and make getting onto the concrete slab each end difficult and they keep changing every time we have bad weather

Been out on the Beta all afternoon doing the local lanes photos you've all seen before but i'll put them up anyway, it was a bit windy on the hills hard enough to ride the ruts without the wind blowing me off course I came down here on the XR with the chainsaw yesterday clearing some fallen trees only right i go up it today, i'm so unfit at the moment when i got to the end which is only about 200 yards i was breathing like a guy who smokes 40 a day with one lung went down a lane to Stanley town and onto Penrhys golf course lane Further along looking towards Porth Short Video from here looking into the Rhondda Fawr Valley I switched valleys to go up to Miriam's bench haven't been here for a while and it hasn't improved, the golf course lane i came from is the other side of the valley Another short video from here looking into the Rhondda Fach Valley and blowing a Hooley had a play through the forestry at the end of the lane Onto the ford in Ynysybwl i decided not to go through and went this way and over the foot bridge i think it would have been easier to go through the ford took the lane from the Jampot down and had the opportunity to try out the new silky saw It worked much better than i thought a hand saw should but bloody hard work with all the bike gear on some of those branches were more like trunks from here i headed home via Eglwysilan mountain. I'm aching like hell now really need to work on my fitness Route map

I think i should have posted this here https://www.facebook.com/share/r/12Dq3imJdGj/

Just checked and the battery charger is out of recovery mode and is now charging, Thought i'd give the starter a push and the bike has started Lithium batteries are great

I have one of these https://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/248878?glCountry=GB&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAyc67BhDSARIsAM95Qzsml_sND7Y7HO7g31GBKUjvRQ3oh3aPglTkCYdLqTcGI-IrXCWhhfYaAvsPEALw_wcB

Just pulled the Beta out as i haven't looked at it for 3 months and the fecking battery is dead bloody Lithium crap, hoping my charger can recover it.

I don't care i know my bike is the best and everyone else is wrong

Eh no you need to go back through the tread and do some revision or @Pedro is going to fail you

My late Christmas present to me turned up today slightly larger than the old and cost considerably more hope its worth the cash, it cut through a 4" diameter branch easy enough today something i know the old saw would have struggled on

I'd prefer it with dirt tyres on

When i was a kid living at my parents house our next door neighbour had one of those. he got up for work one morning to find the engine gone someone had removed it while it was parked on his driveway and nobody saw or heard a thing

Who's doing what, i have nothing planned this year the kids are away so probably just be me and the wife having a living room party, saying it like that makes me think i might not show up LOL
