    You know it, we all get them. I get insane jumpers from my mum each year - weird and bizzare colours. I wonder where she gets them from as no solvent and trading business in the world would risk producing these babies ! I reckon she must have bought clothes in the mid 70's for all the Christmas's until 2020. I daren't wear them as I'd get sectioned under the mental health act or beaten to death in the street. I'll get ties, t-shirts and socks which are very handy but as no one in my family likes bikes, let alone drives a car 'cept my mum, I won't be getting those biking luxuries :cry: but a new tool for porting and cylinder heads is on the cards - cool.. what a…

    Is it for peace on earth? NO! Is it that all wars will end? NO! Is it for snow on Xmas Day? NO! Is it that no one will be lonely? NO! So what is my Christmas wish for 2004? It's that Santa Claus brings John R6 a fucking bike, so we don't have another bloody year of inane questions! Closely followed by Karban's camera going belly up!

    I'm sort of looking forward to it now, getting into the festive spirit... Christmas lunch is going to be great - we normally have a huge beef wellington with ALL the trimmings. No turkey thanks.. What's on for food with you guys ?

    The bloke wouldn't sign my CBT so I have to go back next weekend. I did great but he wouldnt let me go out on the road. This fat bitch got in my way and I ran into her but that was her fault not mine. And the bikes were crap too.Little Hondas and slow as fuck. But I still wheelied it first time out and wheelied it onto the cones too. Nobody else could do that and they passed. The bloke was a prick though. I was thinking about going to another school cos they are shit.

  18. Hey guys, I've been having some problems from the letting agency, in which I rent my flat from. Basically, they sent me a letter through yesterday saying that they're going to send someone round to my flat tomorrow at 11.40am for a routine inspection. I have no problem with that but I'm at work tomorrow so I called them up this morning to ask if they can re-schedule for a time when me or the Mrs is in.........you know what they told me...........they said no they can't and give me some bullshit how it'll desrupt there schedules (Fucking Lazy Bastards! I pay good money for my rent, and they expect me to take time off from my work to let some dick head in!!). They the…

    For more years than I care to remember I always rode bikes in just jeans, leather jacket and trainers. I've had my share of offs although (touch wood) without any serious injury. All my mates dressed the same and we all fell off occassionally. I know that the older you get the longer it takes to get over the cuts, bruises and knocks. Since getting involved in motorcycle racing firstly as a marshall and for the last five years as a scrutineer I have come to appreciate the wearing of the correct gear. Having witnessed first hand crashes from 'lowly' club racers right up to GP Gods the days of jeans etc in my case are long gone. Except for travelling to work and back it…
