    Arrrgh, car drivers need fucking, simple. I have had so many driving like complete fuckwits today that i was considering ramming the bastards. There are several specific types of dickhead that i have observed although some do overlap.. The first and normally a BMW or an Audi, they dive into a tiny gap infront of you then brake hard (nearly did ram the fucker that did it today, i was carrying 28 and a half ton of paving slabs) for a slip road at the last second, when there was nothing behind you. The slip road has 2 special special types of dickhead. Normally in older crappy cars but the new stuff shows up. 1, drive the entire length of the slip road BEFORE us…

    Hey All, Fraid i've moved on from the Yamaha Came across this suzuki GSR600, 2007 and only 9600 klms on it. Full powered and also have the restrictor ECU with it. Stored in a garage at all time's and only driven in dry weather. The guy that had it took my bike against it so he can ride whenever he feels the urge. I just could'nt pass it up. Piccy. I may have changed the bike but i've grown attached to this forum so if ye'll have me i'll stick around. There's a few yammies out there i still have my eye on.

    Hi all have a somewhat random question to ask you all. Im wondeing from head to toe what clothing you where when riding your bike. Now im not talking about going a 300 mile run here i mean maybe a nip to the shop, a trip maybe 2 miles to see family etc. The reason i ask is i had this talk with my friend the other day and he is saying "2 min run down the road and i still wear full riding gear" i.e.helmet, gloves, snood, bike jacket, bike trousers and bike boots. Now i can see his point for safety but bloody hell it will take you longer to put that gear on so why no jump in the car(if you have one)? Anyway your thoughts, and i need head to toe gear where mind as i…

    Apparently IExp has been updated (naff fanfare). Fair enough, the catch being that to use it you need to upgrade windows. They want money for that. Tossers. Sky runs using IE which is a bit of a crappy tie in, anybody got options or work rounds. As Paypal for example flagged it as a security issue, as have sky. Or am i stuck. Cos the laptop we use isn't clever enough to run the latest windows.And as such the latest IE. Email (which wifey uses for work) and such is about as high tec as me and wifey get on computers, a lot of the time i don't use it, just my phone which is fine if a bit small to look at for too long reading. Any of you more computer savvy sorts g…
