I have most of the paint its canbrush I've used it before with pretty good results and never had a problem with it regards to petrol its candy blue over silver And pearl white metallic, the main problem is having to wait for the good weather cos when it does come I want to be out riding the bike not painting it.

I find I get more annoyed by other road users when I'm in the car. When I'm on the bike I'm so much calmer and forgiving of folks that do things I don't agree with. Not really sure why... Guess it's a mixture of me knowing I'm more vulnerable on the road and knowing I have the power to get past them and filter through traffic if needed? I don't know, I just find it therapeutic so generally avoid the car now. I clock up quite a few miles on the motorway (so dull). I'm a pretty boring rider - but if someone does something to annoy me I brush it off. Just let them carry on with their day. The best part for me is when someone notices me - lorry or car, if someone sees me in their mirror and doesn't pull out in front of me, or flashes me into their lane, or say thanks because I've let them out etc I always give them a huge thanks back when I can. Makes me so insanely happy that they saw me or acknowledged my act of kindness. I always try to think in my head that no one is perfect, we all make mistakes. Granted there are some pillocks out there doing silly things like texting or obviously flouting the law but for me I just let them go and carry on with my day. Might sound lame to some bikers, and over time I've seen responses on here from folks about smashing mirrors off etc - but I know that if I was to do that I'd end up coming off my bike or something ridiculous! So for me I know that wouldn't work. I have had some stupid things happen, like when I used to commute into Central London daily - a posh car around Chelsea not liking the fact I'd legally filtered to the front at traffic lights. So when they turned green, trying their best to get back in front of me and push me off the road. Pointless getting stressed, angry and reacting. At the end of the day I know I'll end up even further ahead at the next lights. Lol.

She is American. But also you can read things into anything. I am a Christian but even I am taking what she said with a LARGE pinch of salt. I also dont drink Monster energy drinks. But only because I dont like them. Would rather have a good cup of coffee.

Well Jason it seems like you might have made a wise decision, I am still in limbo with them I thought yeh everything's sorted but no having sent as requested a copy of driving licence they also wanted a copy of my no claims fair enough so I sent them a copy of my present insures paper work which shows my no claims but no no good enough so I got carol Nash to send me a quote for this year which also show s my no claims but yet again NOT good enough they want to wait till my insurance has ended with carol Nash and then phone them so I think I will be using my 14 day cooling off period to cancel.. I can't go off to germany on Thursday not knowing am I going to be coming back to yet another email.
