  1. Just the one today.... Bishop's Waltham Palace http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/TMBF%202016/20160224_113839_zpsnkg1hfke.jpg
  2. Looks good please post some footage I am looking for similar... Is it waterproof when charging so you can charge as you ride...
  3. Or I am now a middle lane hogger.... I know I am the only bad driver on here, none of you guys are guilty of any of this its just me... In the last couple of week I have done more Motorway miles in the landy than I have for a whilst and I am sad to announce I am becoming a middle lane hogger... Why because of ignorant idiots that will not let you out. Signal and they speed up and shut the gap, Signal earlier and pull out early you cause a lovely que, you can even get the bonus of some one undertaking you and pulling out in front of you (even if there is not that much space causing you to brake). I tend to keep my awareness of cars read the traffic for a gap and its Mirror, life saver, signal maneuver all in one smooth action... They still flash and beep you but in a landy doing 70 odd miles an hour on the motorway you can hardly hear them and your mirrors vibrating make there lights a bit blurred your fine... In the Landy I try to keep to 70 ish mph much faster and the noise and fuel consumption become to much.... Why the rant because you do get pissed with it, yesterday 40 odd miles total on the motorway, 8 times boxed in by idiots out side lane is clear but are still going to stop you pulling out before the lorry/ caravan in front of you... Hell that's once every 5 minutes why deal with the stress just sit in the middle lane and let the world move around you??? Next time some one signals to be let out if its sensible please do do not box them in, if not your the one making the lane hogger... This probably goes x2 for caravans and lorries.... I also wonder how many of these are DashCam Dumbo's look at this idiot hes going to pull out right in front of me... Failing to show hes in second lane there is an empty third lane and he just speeded up to Box you in, trying to create their moment of "fame"...
  4. https://www.facebook.com/798290723578639/videos/1000807186660324/?fref=nf I can see this coming for a 125...
  5. Well I tried various gloves today, I should of photographed before I put them away... Richa (cannot remember type, another no visible brand gortex, Lidels best and my light summer gloves.... How would I rate them? Either Gortex pair where ok but outside of tips of finger still felt nippy... Lidel ones where same but a little worse, summer gloves the back of my hands got cold... I know form trying my non brand Gortex are quite good with a liner glove in, on any of them they is a huge improvement...
  6. I know your issues having just succumbed and fitted heated grips.... I am out tomorrow and will be taking several pairs of gloves with me, I plan to try them all on each section... I have 2 pairs of Gortex gloves one set has always been my favorite winter gloves but the palms are well insulated and I think it might defeat the object! If my summer gloves work like suggested I will be asking about them myself!
  7. OK I have done some googling does it have to be a motorcycle? Can it be a scooter Selection is greater and the budget could be lower Does this include collection costs? if you buy a bike and cannot ride it home?

    ebay shits

    For me its some heated grip... Good price said to be next delivery 24 hours Royal Mail receive tomorrow if ordered in the next 5 hours... 6 days later it arrives (well I have to collect in the morning form the post office)... Seems there is nothing you can do..... Jsut bad feedback which will probably bounce back at me one way or other...
  9. I do this for Sat Nav at the moment.... You have to be careful of such instructions as "take the roundabout". Also when you get to double roundabouts it can struggle to keep up with the instructions... I have found google the best for routeing although it does "find a faster route to accept this route tap the screen now" which is kind of annoying.... I have Google and CoPilot and Google is far superior in my opinion...
  10. Now able to compare NikWax https://www.fruugo.co.uk/nikwax-visor-proof-equipment-waterproofing-125ml/p-3570279-7537119?gclid=COLUwsPr3soCFdQaGwodd0gJYA Against Storm: https://www.infinitymotorcycles.com/pro ... wgodoooBTg My opinion Storm if superior in the Rain and Fine Drizzle. When you put it on you can smell its got a polish or similar type base... For me in the Rain it Will be storm every time... Cannot vouch for its bug dissolving properties yet....
  11. I keep toying with the idea I like the look of it and functions but its totally round by all accounts so you need to stop it rolling (important if you sail).. Secondly its not waterproof when charging (as far as I can tell), I would like one I can plug in mount on bike and forget so it lasts all day not just a few hours.... As some one else said there are others out there that are in similar price bracket... https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#tbm=shop&q=action%20camera&tbs=vw%3Al%2Cmr%3A1%2Ccat%3A155%2Cpdtr0%3A926347%7C926348%2Cprice%3A1%2Cppr_min%3A70%2Cppr_max%3A120 The Garmin and Polaroid are 2 I like the look of. The I know nothing about them other than every time some one posts I have to have a look.....
  12. I think today I will nominate a bright red Audi... So there I was coming round the corner out in the middle of the road so can be seen as early as possible... Knowing the car park is there and doing the 40 mph speed limit... If he goes now that will be OK thinks I easing of no he waits he looks then he goes.... Bugger hard on Anchors then who sees me and stops.. I do my best to go round the front whilst breaking hard... I hear my soft pannier scrape along his bonnet... Look in my mirror and he is pulling away and gone.... My scariest one to date....
  13. Some thoughts for the wise.... If your heading to a "pub" make sure it still exists... https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Old ... 4Q8gEIGzAA This one is no longer a pub and the roads I choose getting there can best be described as poor.... I wen through 2 floods and countless meters of mud covered road with bike sliding like a good un.... All that to find no Pub..... Google before you go is my suggestion....
  14. George and Dragon http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/TMBF%202016/20160131_120220_zpsgd4cltuu.jpg Ludgershall Castle http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/TMBF%202016/20160131_132550_zpslaxjp89h.jpg

Wagon and horses http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/TMBF%202016/20160128_163913_zps3j3j7rur.jpg Royal Oak http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/TMBF%202016/20160128_162539-1_zpshcbm1wko.jpg White Horse http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/TMBF%202016/20160128_150147_zps3csrwlkw.jpg Black Bull http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/TMBF%202016/20160130_155337_zpspdyhi2f9.jpg Donington Castle http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/TMBF%202016/20160130_123513_zpsip9nh0sk.jpg Berkhampsted Castle http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/TMBF%202016/20160130_140455_zpslfeqfsmw.jpg
  16. Well Photobucket was the decision, better the devil you know.... Yet its down completely at the moment had a couple of tags to upload and its not working at all...
  17. It would be appreciated nothing here seems to make it easy upload from phone direct link on laptop tablet... Pbucket does do it but adds are getting more common and annoying..... The suggestions so far well I am staying with the devil I know....
  18. I keep pondering advanced training the problem for me is my free time Weekends and week days are best described as random.. It can be hard to commit to far in advance it was hard enough getting it sorted to do my test...
  19. Did it afew years back with a caravan in the spring, most nights we where glad of the heater... You could get lucky or unlucky... That time of year I would plan 2 or 3 trips North South East and West... We had planned on Switzerland or South of France for our trip but the weather was such it best to go north and we where VERY pleased about that...
  20. The car was parked from what I could understand.... I was out tagging on my way home internet reception was poor so I was relying on CoPilot (Always a bad idea). I did not get passed I asked a mum on her way to collect child, the postman and the bus driver for the way round plus 2 others walking no one could tell me an alternative route.... So I just went the other direction till I knew my way home as Copilot had it in its head I mussed pass that bus LOL
  21. Do these pair do deserve a nomination? http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/20160121_165849_zpsf3tlarzx.jpg Apparently he had been stuck like that for an hour and a half
  22. Presently I use photo bucket, it used to be a cracking way of posting to forums sharing large photos etc... Now its become slow clunky and strewn with adverts. Yes I have an add block but the phone app is becoming increasingly annoying... Can anyone else recommend a simple system of similar type? I know there is google and one drive or which ever but they always want to take over and copy EVERYthing on your computer... What would you recommend? Or is Photobucket as good as it gets
  23. Horseshoe Inn http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/20160121_164136_zpsgxc0sssy.jpg Old Wardour Castle http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/20160121_155006_zpshuyrlksk.jpg
  24. Paul The New Forest is in Hampshire but its basically on the Hampshire Dorset border.... For the moment it is idol pondering but getting less and less idol as time goes on.... The thing becomes next step how to mount phone, GPS and charging point on limited handlebar space... Can it be REALLY quick release and small or being to trusting they will stay on the bike, tank bag is no use as I would not carry it with me....
  25. I am bad for it far to trusting.... GPS Yup I would probably do that, phone no well unless I am going to be quick, well maybe.... I do it often enough with the bikes keys (its OK they are normally hidden by my gloves ).... I guess I was hoping there was a option for a small VSR out there and that it would work on a bike to keep things simple.... I have similar for the boats domestic battery and it makes life fool proof... As for something wrong with me you would not be the first to say that and not just the X Wife (although I would like to think most say it in jest!)...
