On the local news... pillion died after the rider of their motorcycle lost
control after being hit in the head by a pheasant on the A417.

 

what a fowl way to go.....

actually, I seem to remember several woodland alliance attempts on
UKRM'ers in front of me this weekend. Christo and Monz within moments of
each other.

 

I managed to mark my card on the way up on Friday - hit a grouse
whilst making progress up the A515 between Lichfield and Ashbourne.

 

Most unpheasant.

Indeed, not a very pheasant one.

 

It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the

ii) What's the chance of that happening

 

I can't quite explain it but I've got the urge to type "Them pijings

You must be old enough to remember the "Crow 'Ead" tee-shirt you used to
see advertised in the mags. It had a shortarse rider with a tall pillion
(think darsy with Tallbloke going bitch). The pillion had a crow's arse
sticking out of the front of his lid, with its beak emerging from the
back.

 

It rings a bell, m'lud.

 

Was the bike goosed ?

I knew it was going to make a break back in front of me, I just didn't
think it would leave it *that* late.

Fecking stealth Grouse wandered out on me and Kimberley at ~80. Bloody

Moderate stoppage was applied, which, TBH wasn't a hardship at the
time ;-)

We've started taking out *all* the pretty barstaff on the bikes.

That Clem's got thigh muscles to equal Snowy's. I'm told I have to take
Katie out next time too.
