And on Sunday the fucking loony takes the car to pick her cousin up from Alicante Airport.

So I'll then be both Bikeless and Carless in Dagosville!

I’m going to a birthday party Saturday afternoon but I plan on riding on Sunday with my freshly refurbished shocks. It’s going to be epic.

I might be going to pick up a new mobike, if it happens pics will be incoming 👏👏👏

Shall I start a mystery bike thread? Probably far too close to the pick up date for it to qualify as excruciating enough 😂

How many will you have then?

ps I am getting rid of a bike, the Mutt as soon as its fixed n MOT'd. 

Don't want to cos someone needs to keep up the Chinese bike ownership side of things but I've run out of room and it doesn't get ridden.

I was gonna say that I sort of miss my Chinky,  but seeing at it died 6 months after I sold it I kinda dodged the bullet.

Fair point 😆

The Dealers here (with one or two exceptions) go out of their way not to sell you a Bike because they'll have to do something!

The dealerships here can issue a plate, in an hour you can walk out the door and ride..or if its a BMW, push it to the service door. 🤪

Pump buggered......tried my pump that I use for the car and scoot, but after 10 minutes of running it was getting very hot, and the pool had hardly inflated much.....

Would you like me to bring you over one slightly used Himalayan, its race style ergonomics, performance tuned 140 bhp engine and rock solid engineering are a sure fire winner.

Was planning of riding to the IOW but daughter seems to be on the mend. Mandi thinks she passed a gall stone just before the scan which is why they found nothing.
I'm not convinced myself so I'll give it a day or so. Mandis booked to come back tomorrow so maybe I'll pass her along the way.:classic_laugh:

Don't really want to go as it's getting very busy with Cowes week being a couple of weeks away and most places are already booked up.

Of course they can do that, so long as you............................

 

Pay their over inflated price, or

Buy it on their finance package which will never end, or

Take a totally derisory offer on your p/ex , or

Sign up to a service package that means you'll pay a fortune for what amounts to an oil change, or

Buy it on a PCP deal which will means it's not really yours unless you want to get raped at the end of the deal

 

Take your pick :classic_biggrin:

That's absolutely possible Dave, it would explain the jaundice if the stone was trapped in the biliary duct for a while.  Don't ask me how I know this.............
