    Its taken me this long since sunday to calm down. Generally I dont get stressed at others on the road, but this weekend was the worst I have ever seen. I ride all the time, come rain or snow and im very used to my machine. I was out with a mate on sunday, having a great ride through yorkshire into cumbria then back down to lancashire. About 10 miles away from home a group of, er. . sunday bikers came up behind us, we are on country lanes, nowhere to pass, if it was me behind, id have waited, using a bit of the old common sense, but no....these four came past doing well over a ton, the last one took my front wheel out after clipping my elbow. . . only experience saved …

    Hiya peeps im toying with the idea of making Project FUCR supercharged, preferably using a twin-screw type although im also toying with the idea of building one or possibly using a centrifugal type, does anyone have any experiance in this area of modification?, would be nice to make my own patterns to have a casing cast from ally and build my own but owing to the speeds of all the whirlybits i feel that balancing it all may be an issue, i have access to a lathe, vertical/horizontal mill and various other tools and equipment with a basic knowledge of how it all works, im not looking to run stupidly high pressures, also how would "conventional" carbs function using a fo…

    Mr Cadbury and Miss Rowntree met on a Double Decker, it was After Eight. She was from Quality Street , he was a Fisherman's Friend. On the way they stopped at a Yorkie Bar, he had a Rum and Butter, she had a Wine Gum. He asked her name, "Polo, I'm the one with the hole" she said. "I'm the one with the nuts," he thought! Then he touched her Milky Way. They checked in to a hotel, and went straight to the bedroom. Mr Cadbury turned out the light for a bit of Black Magic. It wasn't long before he slipped his hand into her Snickers and felt her Cream Egg. He fondled her Flap Jacks then he showed her his Curly Wurly and Tic Tacs. Miss Rowntree wasn't kee…

    I was walking through the park and I saw an old guy doing Tai Chi. I watched him for a while, marvelling at his moves. Only when I got closer did I see it was a tramp trying to put on his coat.

    A woman goes into a tattoo parlour and tells the tattoo artist that she wants a tattoo of santa on her right thigh just below the bikini line. She also wants him to put Merry Christmas under the santa. So the guy does it and it comes out really good. The woman then instructs him to tattoo Happy New Year on her left thigh. So the guy does it and this too looks really good. As the woman is getting dressed to leave, the tattoo artist asks ''If you don't mind, could you tell me why you wanted those tattoos on your thighs?" She says "I'm sick and tired of my husband complaining that there's nothing to eat between Christmas and New Year".

    This is all about companies such as Visa "giving" financial support 'sponsoring' the Olympic games, sounds great as it sounds as if they are philanthropic: (but actually want they get is loads of advertising, well, we all know that). But no. What they get is a cartel. No you can't use a MasterCard at the Olympic venues - Visa only, and no you can't get just a bag of chips from anyone but McDonalds, AND they also get tax refunds on all the extra cash they get! So we tax payers pay for the games in the first place, we are compelled to use the sponsoring companies, forced to see their advertising banners and logos, and then we tax payers don't get a pay back - the …

    I don't know how many of you shop at Tesco, but this may be useful to know. I am posting this to you to warn you of something that happened to me, as I have become a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. This happened to me at Tesco near me and it could happen to you. Here's how the scam works: Two good-looking 18-year-old girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping in the boot. They both start wiping your windscreen with a rag and Windolene, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy t-shirts. It will be impossible not to look. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' and instead ask you for a ride to a…
