Or a couple of ice cubes !!

RIP Dan Kneen Gladiator with so much promise Huge respect to his Dad, insisting that the show must go on. The TT is still on my bucket list to visit, I hope I never have to witness such an event.

Get in 3-1 League 1 here we come

Sitting in a pub in Newquay Cornwall waiting for the football league 2 play off final to start #PUSB

A quick wipe with a damp cloth to get the worst off, then a leather cleaner followed by a leather balm. My local leather retailer (Malec Leather) recommended Autoglym cleaner & Balm - it’s worked well for me, but I’m sure there’s lots of other stuff on the market that does the same job.

Here’s a few things that piqued my interest.

Sycamore Harley Davidson had a stand at the Rugby Bike Fest today - thought about a cheeky pic with my Number but didn’t seem in the spirit of the game.

I’ll be there from about 12. Worried that I’ll be cooked alive in my gear wandering around.

I’ll be there - caught it last year by accident It’s quite a laid back do and well worth a mooch round

You would be surprised at what some people do, albeit with car keys mostly - knew a guy with a Vauxhall Nova who had a Ferrari key ring, even when not driving he used to pull it ( the key ring - stop giggling at the back !!) out and place it on the bar when getting his wallet out, we used to rip him mercilessly but he just didn’t care. I mean any girl stupid enough to be impressed would be woefully disappointed when they saw his baby shite yellow Nova. Don't diss novas - they're classics. Not when he had one !!

I wouldn't randomly take my bike key to a pub if I hadn't rode it there You would be surprised at what some people do, albeit with car keys mostly - knew a guy with a Vauxhall Nova who had a Ferrari key ring, even when not driving he used to pull it ( the key ring - stop giggling at the back !!) out and place it on the bar when getting his wallet out, we used to rip him mercilessly but he just didn’t care.

if you are racing or doing lots of track days I get it but other than that why have your chin on the tank....as for keyfobs I use a rubber wristband, I hate having loose keys I seem to always loose them It’s a naked bike and I am a bit of a unit, so at some speeds I act as a sail and the front end gets light ( not great at some speeds ) So I shove my arse back and put my head down - although whether I could bend low enough to get it on the tank these days is debatable - I’ll let you know next time I am on a track ‘ahem’

I do not have a key fob at all. They scratch the top yolk and the writing around the key slot. They are also distracting at speed when you have your chin on the tank. This is another reason not to have one. Anyone know any benefit apart from dropping it on the bar to show everyone what you’re not riding coz you’re drinking? Mickly

Here it is attached to the bike with a zip tie tether just in case. Works well, cover allows touch screen to work.

Lovely ride out today The George ( In The Tree ) Balsall Common Drayton Manor The Cock Inn Tamworth The (Old) Windmill - Spon End Coventry Brownsover Hall Towcester Race Course

So why wasn’t Chaz Davies penalised for not taking the mandatory 5 seconds stop for straight lining the chicane in the first race? Coz he’s on an Italian Bike at an Italian track ?? Oh no of course not

That’s what 3 litres of Frosty Jack’ll do to you

Just in case anyone’s interested for the future It was £10 for leathers/helmet/Boots/Gloves - in a marquee run by the local Rotary club.

Yeah, Lilac don’t go with bloodshot

That’s all very well, but it does not answer the most important question...... is it suitable for flouncing?

I’ve got the same ( unless you got the ‘R’ version ) Got it new and it still makes me grin like a maniac when I’ve been out to play on it. The handling is sweet but can go off quick if the tyre pressures aren’t right. Loads of low down grunt and a good finish - nothing rusty yet ( ACF50 helps) Loads of farkles available to bling it up What’s not to love? Mickly

How much would it be to drop the kit off at the riders for life truck?

Aye, I’ve bought the tickets and me and me mate gonna ride up from Cov, he’s gonna be on the back coz he’s too poor to have a bike ( only transport is his Missus mobility car ), but he’s managed to gather enough cheap gear to go pillion, and loves it - bloody nutter.

Ah, one of these .. Full on flounce

Why aren’t they here any more? Banned? Trolled? Bored? Memory loss? I suppose anything but a ban would be their personal choice not to come back, so is it to pursuade the Mods to allow them back or to show the love people have for them to pursuade them back?
