    Breaking traction at a stand still is easy. Transitioning from that to a drift in no space was very hard.

    Having your pinky (finger, you dirty cnuts) secured to your 3rd finger is way cooler if its in a glove with a "finger bridge" rather than what the dr calls a "buddy strap"

    And the bike didnt like it either

    And i missed team breakfast with free bacon

    ...and ive got no other fucker i can blame. Unless you count the teenage voice in my head saying "moar'

    I'm fucking sick of fixing broken things.

    In the last couple of weeks a radiator in a pulsar, a radiator in a mercedes, fucked tyre due to leaking forks due to incorrectly assembled front hub on a mountainbike, gears not working on another mountainbike, blown radiator hose on the same pulsar due to overheating because the electric fans aren't working which I also now need to fix, fucked back wheel that needs replacing on a mountainbike. None of these things are mine.

    I'd much rather be working on my projects (while ignoring the list of house things that need doing), now that I've finished rewiring the caravan so it doesn't trip the RCD at the caravan park because some fucker changed the rules, if I can find more than 10 minutes without something else eating my time.

    Actually, fuck it, I'll give up and drink beer instead.

    I have done enough riding in the past couple of months to keep me happy.

    Usually longer rides than most people would normally do.

    I do like the odd pootle and I use it to get away from everything.


    but I understand some people require the motorcycle 'trips' more often, much like my cawfee..
