No this Aint about using your stove for its un-intended purpose.

What Im thinking is perhaps a forum dedicated to pictures of you and your bike and where you ride etc.

I was wondering to myself, wouldnt it be cool if I could give other KB'rs a wave when I spotted them on the road. I know a few of you hard core guys already know what each other look like but for a noob like me it would be nice to see one of you and know you were a KB'r not just another road user.

I cant upload a riding image just yet because my bikes at the shop but Ill update the thread when I get it back (and borrow a proper camera) but anywho. here is me and my bike.

Please dont just comment, just use the thread for pic's etc.

Cheers and see you out there!

Seems we have another one of them "grab your nuts and squeeze to identify yourself" type thread. J/K mate if you want to get to know what peaple look like then just show up at a few KB orginized rides. Got a big one coming up in two months as you can see on the front page. But I'm sure a thread with pics of peaples bikes and some of the roads they ride would be cool.

Just a word of advice - try to always use a glass bottle.... Plastic ones can melt on the knives and that just makes you puke......:o

These are a bit regular are they?

Re your offer to go on a decent ride. I cant really do much until I get off the L plate unless everyone expects to go 70k's

(hmmm or maybe it could fall off one day :innocent:

do a search dude, see what springs up on ya..
there's all sorts of ways to spot a fellow KB'er, depending on where you are.. Some will bin it as they pass.. others will be sat on the tank. Some will do riverdance as they wait at the lights.. others will just fart.

I heard from a friend *cough cough spluter* that the trick is. put 5m of cooking ol the tui bottle your using, put it on the red stove top. once you get too scared you put it into the sink filled with water. the bottom just pops off and a bit of sandpaper means you wont gut yourself while your coughing. takes a couple of tries :)

Think I saw a guy doin that earlier today. Wouldn't have been you would it?


Already posted a pic of me on my bike in other threads but I'll try to get another one of me in my riding gear. Anotherway to recognize me is if you see a guy on an 1100cc Virago with a Texas plate on the back that's me.

But my pic is in my profile if you feel you still might not recognise me from above description.
