Re: Biking Brotherhood?

Can’t go telling my wife it’s a holiday, she’ll think I’m enjoying myself. It’s an adventure, and make pretty damn sure I’m not smiling in any of the photos I post.

Re: Biking Brotherhood?

Whether I’m cycling or motorcycling, I will alway slow down or stop to see if a fellow rider is in need of assistance. But I guess that’s just my nature.

Re: 20 MPH default speed limit in Wales

Looking at the sums. If I ride through my small town twice a day, at 20 and not 30, Monday to Friday for 45 weeks of the year, I’ll be sat in the saddle for an extra 3 and three quarter hours over the year. And that’s assuming I don’t get stuck behind the dustcart every other Thursday. I guess I can...

Re: 20 MPH default speed limit in Wales

The verge cutters are also currently out in force, and no complaints about the...

Re: 20 MPH default speed limit in Wales

I guess the half wits who can’t stick to 30, who this is aimed at, won’t stick to 20 either. I cycle faster than this.

I’m sure it’s been said many times before, but “Every country has the government it deserves” ( Joseph de Maistre)
And that’s coming from a Tory voter prior to 2016. Never again. Draw you’re own conclusions.

Re: Concept Bikers

As I’m sure I’ve mentioned before, but I reinvented myself on discovering Adventure bikes. Sold the Harley, cut my hair, shaved the beard off and purchased a 1200 Explorer. A GS was just one step too far.

Re: Adventure Bikes Everywhere!

Riding south down the Fosse Way in the Cotswolds this morning, passed virtually a continuous procession of fully loaded GSs heading north. Must be a big event somewhere. 🤔
