There's no excuse.......

......for anybody missing any Ride Reports now!

Because the right hand column on the home page now has a module that automatically updates when a new report is posted!

As you know, I'm really keen on Ride Reports! Because it demonstrates that despite being a low rent, low class, uncouth forum where everybody talks complete shit.......we do actually ride!

You may well be surprised to know that there are some forums out there where the members appear to be unable to create ride reports! So do those people actually ride? Who knows!

I'm sure we don't want to look like that....so now, even the casual observers who are browsing can see what we're all about!

What would be good and what would be bad Tym?

[Tym]

Good is he says i can operate motor vehicles and lift more than a few pounds.

I only had one pack abs going in, and they cut through those to get inside.

I have gained weight to 130, thats pretty good.

if i can at least ride the Tomos.

That would be something

to hope for.

No chance for the other bikes in the next few months? 

If you start eating and feeling stronger, that's got to be good?

I rode to Tesco yesterday, does that count?

I realise that may be considered a ride report in other places Dave......but we do require words and photos here!

You can't risk getting saddled with the label of Internet Bullshitter can you?

I can't help noticing that the only Ride Report from those members who came in from another forum has come from @Richzx6r.

Let me explain the problem here.......It's going to look like a bunch of Casuals have followed me here from the other place......and that's not going to help my street cred! I need every bit I can get at my age!

But before you think you're being singled out (you're not......things don't work that way on this forum).....we also haven't seen one yet from @Buckster! Who's been here a year!

The newer members have been here 3 months, but it's also been Winter, plus Covid restrictions have been in place! So there are mitigating circumstances!

So if the newer members do get labelled as Casuals, I think we need to acknowledge that Buck is truly "The King of the Casuals".

And @Six30......I'm waiting for one from you in particular! You need to show you've got more strings to your bow than just being a Forum Troll!

Now this is where you miss the point of this forum, and others like it.

It's called Adventure Motorcycles! Now that doesn't mean it's only for guys with GS's, KTM's etc.......and neither does it mean it's offroad based.

It's for people who go out on the bike and ride, who travel (long or short distance), visit places, and do things. And when possible, record what they do be it in pics or vids. 

Because in the future those things will bring back the memories. And there could be a time when that's all we'll have left. In the short term it's great for others to see the environment that other members live in.

It's not some new concept.....some of us have been doing it for years. But of course it's so much easier now with modern technology.

[Six30]

nah... i'll just troll

Well to me, memories like this from Summer 78 are priceless.

Especially as I haven't been able to find him since 2004. I don't even know if he's still alive!

Things like this are all I have left now.

No.....I'm talking about taking pics in general within the context of motorcycling.

Have you ever visited AdvRider? Amazing resource for travelling and touring etc.

We are still on lockdown, Scotland basically shut down over a year ago and hasn’t opened up again. The SNP (Scottish Nazi Party) have got drunk on the power trip.

Sadly that is a tendency on even the most moderate of parties in the most moderate of countries. Power corrupts, and giving it back is a bitch regardless of how it is obtained.

They banned any sort of church gathering for months until it was legally challenged. I know that doesn’t affect a lot of people, but you have to think about it for a moment to realise that they see no boundaries to their authority. We have a new hate crime bill now that helps protect people from themselves and is ripe for government to use to victimise anyone telling a truth that does not fit with their preferred version.
