  1. Pedrosa!!!
  2. Think I Player is only for replays mate...
  3. Yep.. I would also point out that the car in front of me was blinding me with it's side mirrors and rear mirror!!
  4. Nice one Vicki... You have your uses!! Apparently in Wales they have a big thing against mirrored visors... Blinding oncoming drivers... I mean FFS!!!
  5. All the time. Although I may leave my dark one off for the time being as I'm nursing 'a few' points! You don't get points I don't think, just a fine..... Someone correct me if I am wrong though..
  6. Kinda hoping their won't be a next time!!!
  7. Always have my clear one with me when riding. My mirrored visor is illegal so if a Policeman decides to have a word with me I can show him I am being sensible and carrying a clear one should the weather turn or it goes dark. 99% of policemen are fine with that.
  8. Look at Phil Gales reaction after a track day.... Now looking at getting a road bike that is not a sports bike and just enjoying himself on the track.
  9. Here ya go Paul http://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcy ... d/80/30891
  10. It's all very tedious http://nickpoint.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/citizensmith.jpg Citizen Smith... This is a character from a COMEDY program... Yes, people just laughed at his character. I will repeat my statement that this is nothing more than a waste of time and money to all motorcyclists who take part in this protest. The government won't listen, and won't care if you hold a go slow or hold up a couple of thousand people from getting to work for an hour or 2 one morning.... You will probably spend more on fuel than the government will lose because of your protest it will be that useless because THEY WILL IGNORE YOU AS IT'S NOT MAKING THEM ANY MONEY!!!... Oh and let's not forget all the Police hanging around the protest that will check out as many bikes as possible for illegal numberplates, exhausts, uninsured riders, untaxed vehicles and all the other stuff they can (Rightly - no matter if you like it or not) do you for. Will probably be a nice little earner for the government!! I am not a pessimist, I am simply an intelligent well balanced man who can stand back, look at both sides of the argument, see why some things are done and make my decision. If the Police want to bring down some speed limits (And yes I agree with everyone that some speed limits are stupidly low!!!!!) then let em. They won't cover the whole country with speed cameras. Well not in our life times anyway. Their are some awesome roads out there that I go around a lot, thrash my bike on and see incredibly large amounts of other bikers. Yet never any Police. Never any speed cameras, and never see or hear any bikers having accidents. That's why the Police don't bother with them. The C&F, the A6 and the Via Gella have been reduced on speed limits for one reason. Bikers keep crashing on them. If bikers didn't crash the roads would be largely ignored. Yeah it annoys me, but I ain't gonna fight the government because when they see me as a biker on those roads they feel they must slow me down. It's not a surprise when you look at the stats. You know what though, each to their own. Go on your protest and think that you are accomplishing something... Should be a good day out if the weather is up to it.
  11. Yeah, make a stand..... Let's all ride around slowly in big groups.. Well what will that achieve..... We all ride around slowly. We all spend a lot of money on petrol. We all get ignored. Sounds like the government getting their way. This does not work. It never has, it never will. If it ain't making the government money THEY WILL IGNORE YOU!!!!!!
  12. I am beginning to think..... No one is racing!!
  13. I see a builder van that turns up outside my office on a regular basis who sponsors them!!!
  14. Awesome race the 250... Had me fixed to the screen... Predications for the big race? Stoner Rossi Edwards For me.
  15. Got to love Mojo sense of humour!!!
  16. Glad you enjoyed Monkey!!!! Have a scout round and see what else takes your interest. Big Rally at the end of July in Nottingham http://www.themotorbikeforum.co.uk/view ... 11&t=19870 Gonna be fun!!
  17. Yeah... Reckon this won't be happening next year... Turned into a bit of a joke the 125 race.
  18. Hmmmm.... Good start to the 125's.....
  19. Here ya go mate... Loads of us use this site, never had any complaints. http://www.racevisors.co.uk/category/ac ... et-luggage
  20. Well tried it for the first time today. Have to say that although a little fiddly, no where near as bad as I had expected. I don't think this will fully replace my normal cleaning method, although I will be using this probably every 1000 miles as it does reach parts of the chain that you can't do normally. All in all I would recommend one. Pretty certain once I get used to using it, I will find it much easier to setup and use.
  21. Yeah, just watching the 250cc quals on replay and they stopped the 250cc practise due to a few drops.... Lights blinding the riders.... If it's stopped later today then that should be the end of night races.
  22. Thread for today's Qatar race discussion. Please use the spoiler button if you are talking results!! Nicky Hayden's highside looked nasty!! He's been taken to hospital for checks. Looking at the crash, something smashes into pieces before he hit's the ground.... I think his helmet smashes in to the bike and his visor smashes to pieces...
  23. Unfortunately I won't be able to make it today. Still not feeling good enough to ride... Doubt I would be good company either.
  24. Hi Duane... If you know someone else is going to be around at the same time drop them a Private Message and ask for their mobile and give them yours. That way you can call and arrange a meeting point.
