So jealous

Happy new year, hope 2017 is a good one for you.

Here's mine, thank you Santa, very happy.

Happy Xmas to you all.

To be fair, some of them have bikini fairings, so they are covering up!

RIP BBC TG, rise of the GT!

Just received my Pressie form my "not-so-secret" Santa! (Thanks to Amazon!)

Just a big thank you to ....!

Sent mine, hope it gets a good reception!

Ok Jin, as you asked so nicely, I'm in, I'll pm you my details.

Still think your just data-mining lol!

Hi guys and gals, sorry I'm going to bow out of this one, wife made last min arrangement which means I'm not free until the Sunday afternoon.

Hope you have a good ride. I'll catch the next one.

J

Hey, just returned from India and saw this thread - I should be able to make this one too.

Pencil me in - no sharpie to hand!

Anyone going tonight?

Sorry, won't be able to make it this week or the following 2. I have training in London this week, then in Europe for the next two

Change of plans for me, I think I'm going to have to sit this one out now due to as some family stuff, really sorry, but I will have to catch the next one.

hope you all have a great time though.

Did someone mention a ride out, I'm in too if you like!

bonio, give me a shout, we can meet up if you like, and travel to St. Albans together, as we live near.

Do we have a ride out planned yet, or are we relying on the etch-a-sketch?

personally i think any tyre thats round has got to be better than one that square must be a bugger to ride on it

O

Lol! Of course their still round! Just the tread getting a little low in the middle

Ok, so let's say I go with the mitz PR4 tyre, at the moment my front is ok, it's a bridgstone, do you think there would be any issues if I just bought the mitz for the rear leaving the BT on the front (how would it effect handling?) or should I replace as a pair?

Ok, ok, I'll find out if the training centre has secure parking otherwise I'll train it!

Anyway, so what do you recon on the tyres, I was thinking of Bridgestone BT 023, or are there cheaper alternatives that are just as good?

My rear tyre on my zzr1400 looked a little low on tread in the centre (a bit square!), so just checked em with a digi tyre depth thingy. Looks like I have around 1.5mm in the centre, and around 2.3 at the sides! (I need to find some corners quickly and go scratching to round em off me thinks!)

I also have a training course in city of London in a weeks time, so going to be commuting for a week on the bike from Cambridge, anyone know what m/b parking is like in London?

So should I just replace the tyre, not sure what mileage I'll get for the .5mm left before they become illegal anyway.

So was looking for some advice on what tyres are a good replacement.

It was a great day, great company and weather was untraditionally British too (wasn't raining!).

I'm outside the pub, see you soon.

Sorry, I can't make 12th June, I will be trading my bike for a seat several thousand feet in the air!, I'll have to catch the next one.

Sounds like a plan, I'll try not to get lost in Hilton!

Hi tango, let me know where we can meetup, what time etc.

Not sure I'm happy having my medical details held by a foreign international company....

 

Unless you're a patient at the Royal Free Hospital in NW3. and other hospitals within that particular trust.

They aren't.

do you think it's unlikely to get extended to other trusts?

I'd rather Google held it than the failing NHS IT systems!!

Google are experts at dealing with large amounts of data.

Who cares that they are an advertising company - even if they could identify me (which I bet the probably could do if they really wanted to based on appointment times and geographical location of my smart phone, search history ect) what would they try to sell me based on the data??

Not sure I'm happy having my medical details held by a foreign international company, on a database held somewhere around the globe, where those details could be used anywhere, and possibly subject to differing privacy laws, without being consulted!

Hmm, how do you feel about NHS releasing details to google advertisers!
