I'm not bald, I'm not ginger, and I don't have a beard! So how is that relevant to me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to get some essential groceries and the hill I live on was littered with cars abandoned on the roads. We just slipped her into ice mode and she even made the iced over 25% slope from the servitude to the drive. A lot of vehicles cant make that in summer. went to the news agent for a paper this morning in the snow and down the road there was a little lad playing with his remote control land rover having a great time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've been ginger peaches n cream in every photo since the 70's Can't stand facial hair......makes me itch. Did have a bright ginger moustache for a short while 40 years ago though. Till I saw a photo of myself with it and realised I looked like a fucking twat! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wife's back gives her too much grief if she tries......so she's delegated the gig to a Pensioner. I look into that like if it was a window and it looks like there's a brown bear with his nose against the glass looking in. I have only drank water so far today... 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 A tip for cleaning the glass on furnaces or fireplaces: Get a wet sponge and dip it in the dry ashes, and use that to scrub the glass like you would with window cleaner. Do it a couple of times and just wipe it off with a cloth or paper, you'll have a clean glass with no scratches and won't have to deal with nasty poisonous products. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'd only gone out with other riders over the last 20 years I'd only have ridden about a dozen times. And that dozen times would have been a combination of you, Bruce, Ren, Dell, and Lyn. That's not exactly the stuff that dreams are made of is it? I think everybody these days has gone to the extreme of being over-cautious about everything. It's one thing to anticipate danger within a situation......but we're at the stage now where everybody imagines danger everywhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A dirt road doesn't count, either. I am not against riding alone, it's all I do! But still it's natural for people that care to advise against it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasshopper Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Good Day / Evening Folks Super cold here again today, not sure if I will get out on the bike. Yesterday was fun, but they spray the roads down with a chemical spray to prevent ice and it just coats the bike. I don't like it. Oh well, my cookies turned out well yesterday, so it might be a day of warm tea and cookies! 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My experience tells me it's much safer to ride alone.......I don't have to allow for fuckwits riding with me. I saw some carnage back in those days......even two mates getting killed! One beheaded and the other impaled through railings. So from 79 on I did my own thing.......and I'm still here. Also, bear in mind that it wasn't till the mid 90's that Mobiles came on the scene.....prior to that you really were on your own! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tym Posted January 23, 2021 Author Share Posted January 23, 2021 When you ride a KLR you shrug off fear for you aparently have nothing left to lose. Today was brisk 30 american degrees, good day for a smoker! Tomos, best thing to ride if you have nowhere to go. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
