  1. I had bridgestone battleaxe adventurecross tourers on my Africa twin 3k in the rear was nearly shot when I picked up a nail the front is ready for replacement now at 3.5k. I struggled in November to get tyres there's seemed to be a supply issue and I couldn't get avons anywhere. So the stock tyres were shite in short. I've opted for metzeler tourance next I'll see how they go only 500 miles in on the rear which metzeler have you got?
  2. Well looks like the day is improving put your feet up and enjoy
  3. Not enough, fingers like pigs tits and frozen didn't help tho

    You can still have great fun on smaller bikes
  6. Yep it would make sense if it was law to wear a level of protective clothing. I know especially in the summer it can be a bind and is tempting not to bother but it's not worth it.
  7. Just a chippie tea would be nice
  8. Mines just arrived too, pride of place in the garage with any engagements duly noted. Brilliant calender Thank you!
  9. I might just blow my nose into a mug top it up with hot water and neck it! Marmite why?
  10. I was the same for a little while there is some good stuff on there. Odd football match too. I think this program was dubbed as they swore a lot dubbing is crap you just need to see past that bit.
  11. I'm watching this presently on amazon prime if anyone has it. Well worth a watch dubbed as its in German but no real issue. I like it as it's not some celebrity talking about themself more about the journey. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Himalaya-Calling-Overland-highest-passes/dp/B08KX58T6D
  12. Thanks for your hard work I look forward to seeing it.
  13. Here's a new chinese contender lots are raving about I dunno if this will blow up! https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/electric-cars/355921/chinese-made-ora-cat-01-electric-car-set-uk-launch
  14. Just the standard rubber band. I may have a go at an rc one if this goes okay. More something to keep my mind active at home
  15. I had a Renault 5 campus on a K plate first car and was great inherited off parents gave us 11 years service sold it with 143k on the clock cheap reliable and easy to repair. I don't think modern Renaults are so reliable
  16. I don't think there is any mention of whether they are lit or not in law just their presence and spacing is the important bit
  17. Ordered yesterday looking forward to seeing it
  18. Don't ever mention the Q word
  19. A new bike for me but health issues for the wife and me so lots of isolating not great but we made the best of it. Hopefully 2022 will be better
  20. I came across one last year in the cotswolds came round a blind bend saw a 30 sign then the van luckily I was okay but not right. I used to to prolaser enforcement in residential areas usually close to schools and shops with a marked vehicle and in flourry jacket and we had loads of signage anyone who got caught wasn't paying attention. I don't think it's fair how they do it now
  21. I'm hoping to make my way there. Out nephew sadly passed away but the NE air ambulance got to their home address within 10 minutes couldn't ask for any more than they did.
  22. I've just purchased one many Thanks for all your efforts
  23. I've got the bug now but gone wooden!
  24. She's had a good clean, dry and chain lubrication. Then cleaned the wife's car all good in the household. Happy new year all
