  1. I was told if you dampen the material first, then spray the waterproofer on, the material drying out helps to draw the spray in giving better results Never had to do it myself yet as my textiles don't leak

    Or.............. I was parked behind this Ferrari when my bike lurched forward...............

    Why fight?

    Not strictly true......... There is a thing called reasonable force Someone hits you you have a right to defend yourself Knocking someone to the ground then sticking the boot in is unreasonable and excessive force and you'll likely find yourself in court Someone comes at you with a knife you can assume they mean you some serious harm so would breaking one of their limbs to stop them be deemed reasonable or unreasonable?

    Hiding...

    when you logging in just tick the box that ask do you want to hide Or you could set it so you are hidden every time you log in, but I aint saying how

  8. We will be in the car Missus isn't too keen on this motorcycling lark
  9. If you had a child you'd know they are like fookin boomerangs
  10. Using these at the moment Wearability They are comfy I find they get dislodged easily if you don't push them in far enough and are a bugger to get out if you over do it Noise Reduction Depends how much noise you expect or want an ear plug to cut out really I immediately swapped the coloured inserts for the yellow ones as the green ones didn't cut enough sound out for me The CB I have is a LOT quieter than the gixxer I had, so I'm not sure how they would have stood up to the gixxer
  11. Eventful journey home Sue. Ended up in Shrewsbury. Don't ask me how O_o Chucked the missus off the bike AGAIN!!! in Kidderminster. Some moron on the roundabout by MacDonalds changed his mind and didn't want the turning he was indicating to use and swung his wheels to continue on round. I grabbed a handful of brake and went to put my left foot down. Trouble was it was straight onto a the biggest manhole cover in the world. The ones with the two triangular plates. My foot slipped, off we tumbled and Karen bashed her ribs on the kerb. We are now waiting to see if they are bruised or broken. Doc says if the pain eases over the next couple of days they are bruised, but if they are broke it will get a whole lot worse
  12. Checking in. Back home but not without incident This whole biking as a couple thing ain't off to the best of starts and is in the balance at the moment. Top weekend though Was good to see you all Thanks Sue and Ian for opening up your home to us
  13. I was ignoring you Haha Looking forward to meeting up again
  14. Are there any bus shelters along the rode out route?
  15. John, you have a message on FB Got it thanks Sue I tend to write the route down on a scrap of paper and memorize it, using the scrap pf paper if I forgets on the way, but I think I'll bring the twat nav along just in case We are planning on starting off early morning as its near on 4 hrs for us Karens up the hospital at the minute waiting on the arrival of our latest grandchild She's getting excited about coming along
  16. Well done and best of luck with it
  17. Boots bought Sat the moaning bitch missus down and made her try everything they had that fitted her, even the ones she she didn't like the look of She settled on some waterproof Alpinestars SMX 5's As soon as she put them on I got the look of approval I needed some new boots as well as my old ones leaked like a seive Not wanting to be outdone or do the tweedle dum and tweedle dee thing I tried a few of the others on making extra special effort to avoid the ones the missus chose Ended up with the same though as I found them snug and very comfy All kitted out now ready for the soash at Ian and Sues next weekend
  18. will be this time next year we get the pictures at the rate this weather is going then Think positive, Steve, POS....I....TIVE!!
  19. Great Thanks all for the input and for the link I couldn't find linky when I was searching, so got fed up and reinvented the wheel Figuratively speaking of course Off out in a bit to see what we can find
  20. I am going to be buying some boots for the missus and I've noticed is recent years more and more ladies boots becoming available On a practical level, fashion/styling aside, does it really matter? Obviously women have smaller feets (in most cases O_o) so is it just about the length of the foot?
