There’s no point trying to appeal to a softer side, there isn’t one Poor ol’ ma.

Thanks for all the replies Three point turn, backing onto the uneven ground sounds like exactly what I’m after. I’ve always ridden forward into an opposite gateway but that’s a much wiser move. Very happy I’m almost looking forward to trying it out... almost. Grabbing the brake sharply and using the rebound is probably a skill too far for me at the mo but I’ll definitely keep it in mind when I’m ready. I dont mind paddling at all (most of my u-turn are paddling ) it’s the slippery muddy tyre grooves running opposite to your front wheel that give me the heebiejeebies, especially when it requires extra revs to get over them and your front wheels full lock. The reversing in three point will do away with that Most of mine are caused by getting lost but some of the roads round here remind me of this- "> Where are the stabilisers available?

He makes that look so easy I’m gonna give it a go. Cheers. Professor Google says- It originates from a boxer called Larry Foley in the 1890s, before boxing was fully legalised. He won the biggest prize of about $150,000 dollars and a newspaper article had the headline “Happy As Larry” and the phrase stuck.

Ooh how many watts is that? I'd have to check (I bought it for my wife when she had a dalliance with the guitar a few years ago) but I think it's 50W. It certainly had some grunt, and a load of cool built in effects that she quite liked. My wee one is after the Fender Champion 100 (100watts) so if it’s close on the watts front I’m definitely interested

Great ride down to Sheppys Cider Farm today, nice lunch in the cafe, roads were good, sun was shining Mr Slowly was happy as Larry (why is it Larry?!) but it was marred by me realising I’ve developed a fear of u-turns in country lanes. Its the bit where the roads narrow and you have to use a gateway or similar to get enough width meaning you move from tarmac to uneven potholed gravel and/or mud whilst on full lock, this for me is definitely a paddling job but it puts me at risk of using the front brake which is no-ones friend in this scenario so it makes my heart race. I there another way? Decided I was being pathetic and googled for help and amongst the useless advice this vid was included, supposedly helpful but really it just rubs salt in. Still impressive stuff on such an unwieldy bike. ">

Link takes me to the member map, no locations showing click the menu in your google maps (top left) scroll down and see if it gives you the option to remove the layers for members map and it may also give you the option to show the challenge map Gives me no option to close layers or sign out but can change user, stuck a different email address in there n voila “I can see” Looks like I’m going to have a nice little trip to Cornwall

Ooh how many watts is that?

Last one then before its moved- Any amps on that list? Just anout to buy one.

Good luck and welcome. I don’t bother with FB either but let us know how it goes

Don’t know if it’s been on there a while or if it’s just appeared but worth a share if it’s new- The Ride London to Beijing Kevin Sanders takes a large group of bikers to Beijing, not badly filmed for this type of thing, has negative reviews from people annoyed at how much of the journey is edited out but we’re not exactly showered with mobike progs to choose from. I’ve only watched the first episode and can already tell I’m going to find some of it a bit annoying. I enjoyed seeing the Darvaza gas crater “The Door to Hell” which has been burning for nearly 50 years but the sleeping accommodation on the ferry Anyone else seen any of it? Edit- the first review is dated the 16th Dec so I think it’s probably new Watched episode two. Looks like one of them knowingly buys a stolen bike, hope it was just for the cameras

Is it just me, when I click on the map it shows nothing except my location?

Was wondering what epilepsy had to do with it [strikeout]phenobarbitol[/strikeout] pentobarbital Geronticide the fun way to start the new year.

Cataract time.

Sometimes I’m not sure how I happen to agree to go out on new year, tonight a good example hence this post in your company than theirs Night.

His mums not dead she just moved away and changed her name

Happy new year to you all

What’s being able to sing got to do with it? The majority of bands seem to be fronted by singers who can’t sing and not in an appealing way either just in a god awful please stop singing type of way. Sam Fox was only 16years old when her parents put her forward to topless model for the Sun newspaper. I don’t know any 16 year old children that could cope with that, then her dad/manager embezzled her money which she had to sue her own father to try and recoupe, no wonder she went off men. More importantly how did she get Tina Turners choreographer to teach her those moves

Looked it up. Apparently 14yrs for an air rifle unsupervised on land you have permission to shoot on. Supervised well knock yourself (or that irritating friend) out

Hi Stevie. [mention]Arwen[/mention] Why Stevie?

The law now says you can't shoot anyone unless they really piss you off. I think they're quite strict on that point. Sounds fussy to me. What am I supposed to do with this hit list now?

I haven’t recovered from the guilty feelings of riding passed an obviously broken down biker on the motorway roundabout- at the time I just couldn’t stop- literally couldn’t stop, it was my first outing on my mobike and I went round the roundabout twice with such poor control I couldn’t make the bike stop near them without risking mowing them down still bothers me all this time later but I suppose at least I didn’t maim them!

Aah air rifles, happy days. What’s the law with them now? I remember around the age of 10 taking an air rifle down the lane looking for random stuff to shoot and a passing adult saying make sure you don’t shoot at anyone. Imagine that now, Id probably be gunned down before the first daisy head had got blasted off its stalk!

Ordered many a bargain for my son from here. He’ll find an epiphone for under £90 https://www.thomann.de/gb/guitars_and_basses.html

On this one I’m a definite balls to it person. If you’re going to do it (anything) do it big styley- eat the pie and have a good time, add some timber to the frame and sort it out later if you need to, it’s a time for celebration and it’s only a week (month) out of the year.
