Posted June 6, 20159 yr Hello my name is Richard, or Dick if you like...or Rich, Rick, Richie or Ricky. I answer to em all. Was registered on here ages ago when I had Fazer thou (best bike I ever had btw) but can't remember that account name or password. In the years since I was last here I gained bmw touring bike (from a very bad bmw dealer) achieved a divorce, job change, house move etc and sold the r1200 for peanuts compared to what I paid for the bent frame bitch. Yes it got bent by the folks who recovered it when broke down. I'm now lucky enough to be with an old favourite
June 6, 20159 yr Hi Rick & welcome back to the fold. My Dads name was Richard as a young man he had the same profession as I do now which is painter & decorator, he was known for thinning paint down with white spirit so it would go further and he would have paint leftover for his jobs on the side, he earned the nickname "Dick Turpentine" from his workmates! I always think of this when I here the name Dick & always makes me smile when I think about it
June 8, 20159 yr Author Thanks for the welcomes shouldn't have mentioned the bee em really...once I get started I go on about it for days and end up sweating and rocking back and forth, a far away look in my eye (girlfriends description of me, not mine). Anyway blackhat250 coz I refused to help him load it into the specialised recovery van he went a bit mental with ratchet straps and pulled rear sub frame out of line a couple of inches....might start a thread in the bar about my shocking bmw experience...even though every day I get a little stronger by letting go of all the bad things they did in the dark place at the hard time....or summat
June 9, 20159 yr Author Oh yeh Ttaskmaster....I answer to that too I have a friend originally from Porto who calls me that occasionally but he usually greets me with Hey Wanker. I return fire with Hey Vidal (he is bald) and wonders why I call him that
