    Maybe I just need a bigger plastic bag and rubber band, preferably a clear one
    These aren't the bikes we're looking for....

    I thought the "rubber band" you had in your bike was more than large enough to cause you problems from time to time.
    And remember ...... if it hasn't got one of "Uncle Flip's" prosthetic kickers it isn't a real motorbike!!!

    Weather for Sunday looks like it supposed to rain in the morning then clear.

    Anyone keen for a wee pootle?

    I'm going riding on Sunday, somewhere, if it isn't wet.

    Bollocks, think I might be out this weekend after all.

    Pulled rear wheel off the Kat as it was a bit sticky. Thought it was a seized brake piston, which it was and is now fixed, but discovered the bearings are a bit rumbly/sticky and the brake pads were pretty much non existent. Realised I've never changed the brake pads since buying the bike in 2003-ish. Might have to check the front too ...

    The DR is all go but not the nicest for longer rides. The seat is not made for delicate arses ...

    Whose second opinion have you been getting??!... (and how do you calibrate an arse for delicacy?!)

    Seriously, should be OK for tomorrow - want to try out another old seat; hope the weather holds.
    He who shall go stately at the back and not stress out.
    So Gareth what was it you said about MaxF's "Funky ass curves"? - God, now I'm worried...

    Yea, not sure if I'll go to akas, maybe part way. Will have to see how things go tomorrow. Got heaps to do, mainly tidying the spare room for sister-in-law coming to stay over xmas. Took me three hours to clear three feet the other day so am doing it in installments ...

    Don't they use a cattle prod, or something with high voltage.

    It should be a similar process to the one used at the meatworks to test meat for tenderness. Same sort of thing really.

    Maybe some cat treats will get him moving, but not ones with Catnip in them...., you should never ever ride under the influence of catnip.
