A big shopping trip for my parents and browsing a BMW GS forum... There's some "strong opinion's" on there (deadhorse)

If I get one I hope I don't turn into "One of them" (giggle)

So it took a couple of weeks but I got my £200 credit.

They started off at £15.

Twice I was told the best they could do was £50.

Sometimes it pays off to be argumentative

It rarely pays to be agreeable. I'd be £2500 short on my salary if I accepted their first offer.

Oooops!
....I think I might have forgotten to feed the goldfish yesterday.
They woke me up this morning, all lined up and knocking on the glass.

That's a fairly expansive menu they have there.
I'll have a Reuben w/loaded fries and a Diet Pepsi, please. (emo)

Well I rode to the RIAT @Fairford for the airshow on Friday, got rained on there, during and coming home... Not just rain, but heavy persistant rain.... Nothing dried out, reports were good for Sunday.... They lied as soon as I arrived today (Sunday) the heaven opened again!!!

Dried out for a bit, then done me again all the bloody way home.

If I am to salvage a positive out of this, it might have been wet, but it wasn't cold!!!

It's about nine thousand million degrees here today, so I'm doing bugger-all 'cept eating, and playing with my guitars.

I've been fixing my wardrobe which collapsed lastnight, that woke me up FAST.

Then I took some of the farkles off the bike and posted them for sale on the XR forum, someone asked me what brand the GIVI top box rack was, he even typed the word GIVI in his question... I need to find some more faith in humanity because it's running out.

Not today but I've not been present much recently..

This is a little video of my recent trip to the mountain bike park... where I overjumped a large table top - landing more than 40 feet after I left the ground!

Nice! That trail has a good flow to it, especially through the upper section.

It bloody felt like I was flying! 1.2 seconds of hang time on that thing hahaa..

This is what they refer to as a blend trail.. the middle section is tech wood stuff. The bottom blue trail (willy waiver) is just out and out flowy fun!
