    On the way out of a client's today I stop to shoot the breeze with a
    member of staff. [1]

    We discuss Suzuki's and the fact that I have just bought one. After a
    short while, in my defense, I mention that I haven't had a bike for a
    while. The chap immediately suggests that I should undertake a 'Back
    to Biking' course [2], just to help get back in to the groove; after
    all, it has been a little while.

    He explained that he was a CBT instructor and a college of his could
    do a good price; just mention his name etc etc.

    Should I take his advice?

    [1] GSX-R600
    [2] I think that's what he called it

    How long is 'a while', and where are you in relation to Brizzle? The
    Dave Corden w/e would be a very good recommendation :eek:)

    Glad to see you back btw, been about 2 years since we met.

    No.

    I'll pop round on the Harley, and we'll go out for a spin.

    If you can keep up you don't need the training.

    If you can't keep up you don't deserve the training.

    Good to have you back!

    it's a gender disphasia thing - black guys are largely in denial about
    any feelings of possibly feminity, largely due to the overwhelming
    peer-disapproval of "batty-boys" etc.. I mean, look at the whole
    "gangsta rap" thing - if that isn't over-exagerated machismo, failing
    rather badly to disguise latent homosexuality, then I don't know what
    is...

    Anyway, the poor guy probably only rides bikes in the first place 'cos
    it's a non-black-stereotype and (percieved) non-homosexual activity.

    leave the poor **** alone, already, you racist ****.

    Sad. Very sad. Is it because he is a Born-Again-Biker?

    To be honest, I have little intention of taking up the training offer.

    I have tried to keep my hand in with the odd dash here and there in
    the company cage, and now I have a pretty good family cage, I'd like
    to think I've kept my hand in, or should that be end up...when it
    comes to pressing on a bit.

    As for any other tendency, 3 offspring, seem to clarify that doubt.
    Thanks all the same Darsy ;-)

    No, it's because he rides and drives like a ****.

    Took me about two days after a six-year layoff. No problems at all.
