In praise of old tiddlers

I can (and will have to, temporarily) get two in the garage, but it
needs a bit of a clear out and one bike will have to up the back, and
will be almost inaccessible in terms of regular use.

There's no decent place to put one outside, under a cover either.

Oh aye, makes sense in that situation.

Getting through clogged traffic *is* a pain - literally, for me. It
gets my wrists first, and then my back.

heh. I bet that just *loves* being stuck in traffic!

 

Move to somewhere less pikey ;-)

It was starting to get to my wrists on the Triumph - the bars are wide
but you're still leaning forward a lot. On the Beemer, it was my
shoulders that started aching from the effort of wrenching the bars
around.

We shall see.... there are two or three Dukes I see on my regular
commute. All Monsters of one sort or another. Not my idea of fun.

 

Would love to, and we've seen a nice place, but we're approx ukp100k
short!

 

*Snort*
Only you could make this claim, and be justified

The RGV's a superb continental tourer compared to the Fantic.

 

social work in the community mental health team is a 2 way process. All
part of good reflective practice.

 

#1 stepson works with mentalists in the community too - it's not done
anything positive for his sanity.

 

the nutters are okay, it's the cunts in the NHS that drive you mad.

Off course, in Hog's case, this causes something of a dialectic. ECT is
probably the way forward.

 

having spent 5 days in hospital this year I would tend to agree.

what's wrong with a good old-fashioned lobotomy?

 

You can only do a lobotomy once. ECT can be repeated many times a day.

 

Only one extra? I wanted to nip out somewhere on the bike last week.
When I opened the garage door I remembered the Bus was still in
'Flyers' trim so not ready for the road, the ZZR has an oil cooler
leak that I need to sort out before I ride it again, the GTR was in
pieces where I'd made an abortive attempt to remove the Autocom to put
on the Bus before deciding it wasn't worth the aggro, the GS was in
pieces where I had taken the Autocom off (I'm not doing that again, I
ordered another), the FJ doesn't want to turn over (flat battery
despite the Optimate?), the FJR isn't insured and the Harley hasn't
been used since late last Summer so I want to check it over before
riding.

I went by car.

hmm.

not convinced.

 

Burn the heretic! It's that kind of hateful talk that leads to men
having to justify the purchase of extra bikes & that's something that
should never need justifying & if it wasn't for that the world wouldn't
be in the state it is.

 

I'm ignoring the Gaucho wearing cnut. Although being summer I expect he is
dusting off ripped denims and leather Chaps.

Note to Burnt: No I can't really imagine *you* dressing thus

 

Yes, I have 6 non functioning or non legal ATM

 

That's why I'm planning on getting one some time. CG125 (MSOPR) or
some such. The missus says I can't ride 3 bikes at once, but I like
having the choice!

 

Tell her she can't wear two pairs of shoes at once.

 

Paging Timo. Timo to the RAC emergency phone, please.

 

Oh, I *like* that )

 

And TBF, she's spent £110 on a pair of shoes recently, and you could
get a tatty CG or not much more...
