Oh well, chance to take Jess for a spin (her day off tomorrow) and if she handles it to the service centre, can come back the long way through the Blue Mountains.

She's been on a bike once, about 10 yrs ago.

... that the locals are a friendly lot. I've never had any trouble out there, the kids are looked after. One of the things I like out there is the way they look out for children, be it in the shops, when you're eating or on the bus. A few years ago a little girl ran off form her mum and was heading ...

I had to do the same.. Donegal to Dublin in one sitting. 4.5 hours of pretty manic driving. Got to Dublin and couldn't find our way to the destination so I took the bus lane!

Enjoy the drive, ROI roads are way better than NI too

... will be first to offer a superbike with a GP-style seamless shift? There’s got to be strong money on Aprilia. The firm might be still feeling its way into the top ranks of MotoGP but it’s had a seamless shift transmission since last year thanks to a licensing deal from British engineering firm ...

Day before yesterday, actually mate. The days are now getting shorter, & the nights are drawing in.
So winter is indeed on it's way.
Hth.

(music) I know which one makes me smile more I agree mate....nowt cooler than 'serious equipment'. I wish I could even compare the two....the ...

'The Forgotten War'...as someone once told me. Couldn't make sense of that at the time....turns out the man was right. WWII will end up the same way...if it hasn't nearly done so already. Been watching a bit of "Band Of..." lately....prolly the best depiction of WWII yet. Forget the ...

... I realised that Perkles hadn't replied to my text and hadn't made an appearance, was a bit worried as the weather had been a bit shite on the way over. Was glad a bit later when I heard he was only poorly.. So the first session started, normally i'm really nervous but that wasn't so this time ...

Well yes and if he or she is pro Brexit, they will have to pull the trigger immediately. If they elect a Remain PM then they would likely call a general election. Either way the Tory party is going to rip it's self to bits, which is nice.

Still can't get over how good the new bike is.

I rode up to Mallory to see Jon for a short time.

I do love those roads round there and we should have a Tankslap ride out that way one Sunday.

DeGaulle is a pretty impressive airport...all new & shiny and stuff. Always impressed with the way the French do air travel....well, mainly I like French chicks, and they're good at passing out the vino. Pity they couldn't find our plane. Seriously....our ...

Legally the Queen has the power to call one (that's put in the very briefest way) but she won't. The House of Commons can also put forward a motion or the current government can call one. If the Tories elect a new leader then that leader can dissolve the government ...

... with Out voters now regretting what they had done and saying things like - 'I didn't actually think we would leave' - so WTF did you vote that way? So few people take any interest in politics anymore. Many of the voters were so ill informed on what a Vote Leave would mean to them personally. ...

... get to this stage infect this was one of my last 30mins when I started to do it!! However it was wet and personally I think I let that get in the way of me being able to give it the beans while popping the clutch. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

... learned you may be interested in. Firstly access under the tank on the 13+ has been vastly improved. The tank can now be sat up properly out the way without disconnecting any wires or fuel lines making work there much easier. Secondly the tip switch is now under the seat rather than in the nose ...

... a hug from us :) To be honest if things go economically bad we may have to return and mothball here (we'd never sell it with the new situation anyway). We've been talking to a few expats today (and are going to the local expat pub tonight to see whats what) and some are so very worried. The right ...

I went on holiday to alvor two years ago when wsb was on all the teams were out on the lash and I met Tom Sykes and his pit crew.Nice down to earth people,the old town is really nice and the food is top notch.We went on a zoo excursion and drove past the track ,it didnt seem to far out of the way
