Mickly

Cost me £400 on my last Speedtriple

Unblocked a rain water drain. It was full of sludge. It’s sumped so that all the sludge gathers in the inside pipe & the water rises up the outside Of the pipe to the drain pipe. However after being up to my armpit in stinking water& dragging out all the sludge the water level was still too high. So I bailed out the water then found that the internal pipe was a git to remove, I then found what can only be described as a substance resembling concrete in the bottom, so I chipped it all out & the internal pipe could be replaced. As I was washing it out & cleaning away the rest of the gunk, I realised that my arse was getting wet .... ( insert joke here ) Found that the hose pipe has a puncture just in the right place to give me an ice cold enema... FFS Time for a beer .. but not Carling this time, a bottle of Singha

Disappointed that the Fire boat doesn’t spray water!! @Mickly all the bits have now arrived so spent far too many hours getting the fire monitors working. Bloody brilliant .. well done that man !!

Oh Shit !! Hopefully you’re ok. Bikes can be fixed.

Happy burpday

Bit late I know, but I have read that fitting a ground anchor to a wall is a better security measure as the chain is less susceptible to attack than if it was on the floor. Obviously if your walls are made of breeze block / cheese this doesn’t help, although drilling through the wall and fitting a plate on the other side with anti tamper bolts might.

You obviously sniffed it to authenticate it

Agreed, had to give mine a wash after a couple of trips. Splattered Barkbuster !!

Same happened to Mallory Park.... f**king NIMBYs bought houses at knock down prices, then complained like f**k about the noise & inconvenience, got the track restricted and rubbed their grubby piggy hands together as the house prices rose, they then shat them selves when it was suggested that the track be turned into a housing estate ... w**kers .....

Wankspangle is now my favourite insult

Found this in an old copy of Bike magazine, might be useful for someone. Oh f*ck it’s on the piss again !!

I’ve got a 2’6” long 3/4” drive breaker bar & a set of adaptors to go with it, don’t know the make, but it was £15 from an autojumble & haven’t managed to break it yet, despite trying very hard !! i.e. 16 stone of Mickly jumping up & down on it while removing the gearbox sprocket nut on the Trophy.

So..... Last Friday I went out for a tootle around on the Mighty Speedtriple ... vote for Nob of the day goes to: 1: The young lady on a cycle that stuck her arm out to turn right & wobbled about all over the road out of control. 2: The RangeRover driver who started to speed up when I came up behind him to the point that he was crossing the solid white lines in the bends, at an appropriate point I overtook him, at which point there was an even worse deterioration in his driving plus flashing of lights... 3: The twat exiting a petrol station out of the ‘Entry only’ lane as I was entering. 4: The yellow Supra who tried to beat me away from the lights into a lane closure ( why do they try? ) The answer of course is me !! Filtered to the head of a queue of traffic at the lights, went to shoot off a bit quick & sat there all revs & red faced as it was still in neutral, had to wait for the revs to die before getting away

All them bikes ... you jammy bugger Welcome

Blood doning today, they have introduced a host of new precautions, the worst of which is not having a hot drink so you don’t hang around for too long afterwards - the only reason I go is for a cuppa tea & a mint penguin ( or 2 )

7 years with the 1st one 28 years ( but not married ) to current one

Don’t have one .... don’t want to incriminate myself, they can be confiscated by the police & used against you. If you’re whiter than white then go a head

Disappointed that the Fire boat doesn’t spray water!!

What’s a weekend ?

Nope, stopped in the picnic area by the cattle grid & had a chat with a guy on an MT7 .... keeping 2M apart of course !!

Trip out on the Mighty Speedtriple today - 120 miles Bewdley Ludlow Castle View from Clee Hill The Warwick to Redditch rd (through Henley in Arden) used to be epic it’s now been castrated by a 50MPH Limit & double white lines

Dumbo was a bank robber But he never hurt nobody He just loved to live that way And he loved to steal your money
