    Good news - petrol prices

    Going to go up next week by another 3 cents due to extra tax placed on them to make that "surplus".

    Pretty sure this increase was announced around 3-4 years ago. 9c over 3 years.

    Find a chick who’s just been dumped and comfort her by massaging her shoulders, and soon, she’ll be massaging your prostate.

    Has the current price of fuel made anyone think again about the length and frequency of rides?

    Apart from commuting, I doubt many riders look at the petrol consumption side of things when buying a bike.

    At a steady 110kph, would there be a hell of a lot of difference in fuel useage between a 600cc and a 1000cc bike?
