  1. i dunno mate, but most folk i know are filling up like mad :shock: thing is, the petrol companies will make a fortune at times like these, people buying as much as they can hold incase of a strike, they prob wont be losing out on much. the government will put price down slightly to get things rolling again, then bump it straight back up :roll:

  2. Change of plan, and we decided to go to Llansteffan on the South coast of Carmarthenshire as we've got friends there.

    The XT lapped up the narrow single lane roads/tracks there, that's it's type of terrain.

    Nice round trip of 140 miles.

    The day was only marred by the usual sportsbike heroes who seems to make a habit of accelerating at oncoming cars on the wrong side of the road. One daft twat even tried kicking at the oncoming cars!  :roll:

    sounds good mate 8) the power ranger would have got a shock if he connected with the car and got thrown off! silly sod :roll: how's the bike 2 up then mate? does it still handle ok?

  3. yeah guys it's all about time and place, also knowing what's right and what's just stupid. we'd be talking sh*te if we said we didnt ride fast but it's possible to ride smooth and fast(80mph) without hurting anyone. i get loads more enjoyment from riding like this, holding a steady 70, picking best lines and holding good corner speed. far more rewarding than hitting 150mph in my opinion

  4. i dont really like performance bikes now. i used to read it at school when i was 14/15 and it was great then. full of nobheads now :roll:

  5. be quiet you silly old man :lol: , i have been 50 miles on my bike this morning, went up to work at 6 then out for a blast on the bike at 7.30, was going to do a usual fav 30 mile route of mine but decided to go a bit further. going to change the fork oil in the xj after i get off the net and go out another run. i'm hardcore boyo :twisted: :lol: 8)

  6. indeed, well put. it's the same in the town near where i live now. junkies everywhere :( useless bastards need shot. my poor gran and granda are scared at night and have the place locked up from 6 onwards :shock: they live in a decent area too it's just these little bastard hang around on the scrounge for whatever they can get. i stepped out of their house one day and one of the buggers was trying their car door, i chased him, he tripped up and i gave him the hardest kick in the side of the ribs that i could. it was a struggle to stop myself giving him a few more kicks :evil:

  7. i nearly always wear my jeans :shock: :roll: . suppose i should wear my leather trousers more. yesterday was the first time i wore them in ages, went for an 80 mile ride on the xj so decided to put them on. might wear them more often now as i found them actually quite comfy :) and the safety factor is important
