A picture is worth a thousand words

Hey - a new Toyota Ad!!!!

"... bugger..."

[Meanie]

would be a good pic for the kb calender?

Already sent to Jonie for thier consideration

Can I humbly make a suggestion, try some Michelin Pilot Road 2's Cowboyz has one on the back of that green thingy and Yod is running a full set, they should have formed a decent opinion by the time you need new rubber, well maybe not you Bandit what with the clicks you're racking up, you might might be looking for a new set after this weekend eh. Best of luck for GC by the way.

Thanks for that, really looking forward to the ride (I swear I'm not completely nuts - you believe me don't ya?). I'd say that the front will be pretty much had it by the time I get home!

Just hoping that the weather plays ball...

well the good news is I only have 45 points. Add another 35 for this ticket gives me 80. All is good. I only have to get to december 07 for 35 to drop off again so looking pretty good.

happy as larry and got a nice photo out of it.

geez you're mighty lucky boy....if you had lost it you would definitely start losing weight quickly due to all the walking!!!

Good news Glad to hear we won't have to see you on the back of a bike yet!!!! Not sure it would be the right look somehow
I can just imagine you backseat riding

Haha like hell that would happen he's too much of a control freak when it comes to machinery!!!

I would be fine on the back. Just as long as the person on the front got off and left me to it.

For whats its worth the Pilot road 2 has not let me down in some fairly wet weather riding. Always done predictable things when pretending I am Rossi (however badly) and wearign well for commuting

East coast= Not too bad, West coast= shit. If the GC is predominately in the east you might have a decent ride, from what i've seen on the Met service the west coast might be a bit tragic.

Thanks Mr Hickey!

1000 miles usually takes all around the compass so we'll probably see a bit of weather a some stage unless the weather gods really decide to smile on us. I guess it's all part of it really and can't do much about it. Ride is always on rain or shine. Will toot if we come through Danniverke...

[lemure]

A little ironic considering our "perceved contrast in riding styles and bikes" that 15km beforehand you went by me and a truck at 150km/hr and I get the one ticket!

My son in law used to live in Stratford, and told me the following...

He was with two mates doing about 135 kph on the road between Inglewood and Brixton - almost Waitara. He saw flashing lights in his mirrors and slowed down to about 115, but the HP passed him and chased his two mates into the distance as they were trying to get away. A few ks later he saw all three on the side of the road, so he pulled up behind the police car to wait for his mates. After the cop had given both them tickets, he came back, saw George, and gave him one as well. S-i-L was highly indignant. Knowing how he rode in those days I wasn't sympathetic at all, but couldn't help laughing. There's such a thing as being too "matey".
