I tried 3 different cheap ones over the years and most didn't last more than one use then I bought the DID one and I still have it (somewhere) after my last few chains. just need to see if it does moped chains for the next couple of years

Must confess that the older i get the less i enjoy riding and driving in the dark. This. Also, I think headlights are so bloody bright now I'm constantly dazzled if there are other vehicles about. The worst I find, driving an older car and when I have a more modern car behind me, their headlights c...

It's only dare if you care about 1st place and don't give a shit about the racing. Even when he's won he's raced for it. Most of the time he's had to fight for that top spot on the podium. MotoGP will never go dull the way F1 does when someone dominates. I think they ruined F1 when they got rid of ...

Does more housing = more flooding with less places for the rainfall to soak up?

If so i'll need to start saving for a gibbs quadski

I only ever grew about 3 hairs on my chest :'-( I'm naturally aero

my sister has a little one on the way, this silencer looks like it could be a perfect gift.

I think a bike will be my first purchase as soon as I finish

On the up side: "So tonight, in the Tomorrow's World studio, the one single winner of the very first Prince of Wales Award for Industrial Innovation and Production will receive the trophy from Prince Charles himself. " John Peel on the radio. but On the down side: Top of the Pops ...Introd...

the one that winds me up is that on the way to uni, in the same place at the same time every day there is a long queue of traffic but people still persist in trying to weave in and out of lanes both over and undertaking beforehand and cutting people up to try and hit the line of traffic around the n...

I finally sold my bike as for the moment I need a car for uni and can't afford both :( Just looking for cars at the moment now. I'm hoping it will only be while I'm at uni and then i'll get another once I qualify :) in the mean time my sister has offered me a moped she has sat in the garage unused t...

it's like the reverse where I work rossgo, the people who moan and complain the most, shouting about their rights are on the most money while the rest of us suffer on lower wages while doing twice the work without complaint. I personally find it disheartening and ends up with you not wanting to do a...

i never had a clue what i wanted to do when younger so i just tried lots until i found things i liked - now a student training for the career i want

I have heard of this before on trails that mountain bikers use but the odd person on a mx bike uses as well. Yep, people put logs in the middle of bends on the downhill sections too and all sorts, you can see where they have been dragged over to try and make people crash, also fishing wire across t...

quite a fair challenge though, lets see which of these can get to 200mph the quickest. lets use two 200mph+ cars and a motorcycle that's limited to less than 200.............. I wonder who will win

I'd guess there is a move to reduce travel time and costs though, from people not commuting over great distances.

To be honest, mine is closer to a true cave than anything else, not even a man cave. The roof leaks, the door is knackered and the gf filled it with crap to the point where you need to climb over things at about waist height to even see the back, coupled with the cobwebs I feel like an extra from an...

Jees! £31 to fit tyres onto loose wheels?! Just as well I'm from a family of bikers. We each chipped in £20 and bought everything needed to change tyres and balance wheels. It's much easier than you think. As it happens, I got the abba tyre changing and balancing kit somewhere but I ripped the gara...

I have always tried to sign up for the off road experience there but every year it's already fully booked when I get there. I go there as soon as the doors open but get told "sorry, we are booked up until Thursday"

anyone know of anywhere near Edgbaston (botanical gardens area) that'll fit motorcycle tyres to loose wheels while I wait? The only place I know is Sheldon Motorcycles, £15, but a bit far from Edgbarston. Note the 'R' in Edgbaston (giggle) 'twas £15.50 a wheel at streetbike and took just over an ho...

I went to streetbike in the end as Halesowen wasn't too far from my normal route home.
