Welcome back to biking, Monty.

We will have that summers evening ride round the Peaks this year.

Finished my 8 hours of work, now I'm sat at my desk completing Uni work for another 2 hours before going home and getting ready for football practice.

The joys of part time study with only 1 less module in a year than a full time student !!!

... aim is not to fall asleep. My brain can't cope with this at the moment (gah) Think I'll go back to googling motorbike related goals for this year.

The tax man for the third year running fecking my tax code up and putting me in arrears

I once did London to Cadwell in a day, but wouldn't do it again.

Took me 4 hours to get there, 8 hours at the track and then 7 hours home. I was walking like John Wayne for 3 weeks!

Think I'll be investing in a cheap folding bike trailer for the Disco this year

... Primary school with and knew of him throughout Secondary school was yesterday sentenced to 8 months in jail after knowingly having s£x with a 13 year girl. He was friends with the girls brother and therefore would have known her age. He was a stoner and a waster and now he's going to get butt-rap£d ...

A "friend" of mine told me that when she worked in a beauty salon, she'd have 15 and 16 year old girls coming in for horrific treatments, because they believed they should look a certain way... :( There's a thing in the news today about not criminalising children ...

... have mobile phones and some send photos of themselves to their boyfriend or girlfriend. If they're under 16 it's an offence. One woman said her 15 year old son is now on the sex offenders register because of it and there are other kids in the same position. Some of the laws need to be reviewed.

No bunny ears this year, though. I liked her with bunny ears.

Personally, I would have said it was nowhere near as busy as it was on Saturday last year. That's how it seemed to us, anyway. I agree with you about the costs, though. 4x tickets, £15 parking, £40 of fuel to get to London from Bristol and back. Much more and I might ...

... it seemed like there were a lot of people missing. A few exhibitors/retailers mentioned that they've put up the prices for stands massively this year and if it's the same next year, they will consider not going. Lots of people on the Triumph stand (as per), but the other big manufacturers didn't ...

Agreed. And physical castration not chemical.

I hear Syria is nice this time of year...

?

I like to have fun in the twisties dogbot so this time of year is rarely any good for my type of riding ;) Glad to hear you had a good ride though. Taking a 190bhp zx10r for a bimble in icy conditions is like taking a prime race horse to Blackpool beach ...

Rode it for the first time this year. Bit nippy and was only out for an hour but still a good feeling to be back on the bike.

Its seems the fuel sensor has packed up over winter though so need to make a phonecall this week.

I am.keeping my eye on this thead. But this year will be super busy so unsure what else no can pack in at the moment!!

Great if you can deal with the £25 million a year loss on average..

I think this year Hickman could be a real threat for at least a podium. It will be a good year anyway, lot of interesting riders on good bikes
