    Umm, your bike shits itself between one and two times if you ride it five days a week? That is crap. If bump starting it works, is the problem that the battery goes dead? Or is it that it's a bloody 250 inline that needs winding over for ages before it starts?

    Either way, get that shit fixed.
    I mean my actual long rides not just pottering around.


    It's been fixed now, has only needed the bump starting ince, I've just seen 2 other bikes have it done so figure that could be a useful thing to learn.

    They will have it back sometime this week to fine tune the carbs (so I can have my itty bitty power back)
    What's the point in living if you don't feel alive?

    Toying with ones mortality shouldn't be this much fun.

    Shall we wait untill better weather? Just cause I do the rain does not mean I like it. It comes with that only having time to ride after work to get my road hours in and that happens to be at night.

    It takes me 30min to get to Admore on a Sunday morning averaging 110-120kmh......that and a bit does not seem that far.. (Famous last words)

    Mind you I do do that in the car while half asleep.
    Yea better weather would be good I think. Yes I always take my credit card with me and my phone.
    I don't think driving Half asleep sounds very safe
