Chest like a sack of footballs me. McJim the Barbarian. Called pectoral muscles. Handy for lifting broken bikes on and off trailers.

Deflated footballs is it?

Though I cannot fault their bike lifting prowess... no sir!

Well yeah, I guess I did... it was take it to the gutter and laugh, or flog the bike and forget riding because I can't be fucked watching people try and kill themselves anymore.

So send the servants of Godwins I say... it means little to me...

Is that akin to rolling up little barrels of death in ground up vegetable matter and causing a combustion of deleterious byproducts in twin fleshy receptacles of atmosphere processing units?

It's worth noting that, as quoted in TJF, that `there is also a widely- recognized codicil that any intentional triggering of Godwin's Law in order to invoke its thread-ending effects will be unsuccessful. Godwin himself has discussed the subject.'

Donor -- come and ride with the Super-Nanas sometime. We trade in our fancy leathers for flabby cordura, and knee-down chic for tyre-saving ponderousness

We had a young fulla on a 250 came up to me yesterday (not a KBer) and asked if we were a club?...and could he join us for the ride?.. answers were No! and Hell Yeah. There were 3 Busa's an R6 GSXR 600 and a Thou, a couple of Triumphs and a SV 650. The 250 (at the first stop) said he was over doing it trying to keep up with faster guys. Senior memeber told him ''dont do that, ride your own ride''...then to his credit....He did! Mature man that lad, good head on his shoulders, he stuck right behind me the rest of the day..well, me and a Busa and the SV...Both Tide and Donor have been on one of my rides...down south Waikato...many bikes, not one! incident, it can be done...

Quite a strong message but a good point there Donor

Hahaha i wondered where he came from ........... he stayed on my arse most of the time, mind you that doesn't mean anything as i ride like a nana.

After riding with the guys & gals on Archer's ride yesterday i also highly recommend bike 2 bike coms, not only to you get cop and road condition warnings from the lead bike but it also makes it eaiser to over take cages in the twisty stuff cause the lead rider is telling you that the road is clear ahead so you can overtake on blind corner ( of cause you wouldn't do this if you were way behind the lead rider).

I think it would be benificial if newer riders had a cheep coms set up that they could use when on group rides mainly so that they can listen to the more experanced riders warning about changing road conditions.
