  1. I remember you were on the right front, AND the U-turn at the roundabout where Huntingdon was clearly signposted straight ahead and we took the first exit, 'cos somebody in the front was indicating left...lol. (I don't know who it was as I am still puzzled with the 'name vs. display name vs. bike vs. gear' matrix. ) Filtering, oh yeah, I can do that cr@p too! I thoroughly enjoyed the ride. See you tomorrow @ the Marina.
  2. Great run, thanks for the photos Bonniebird. Anf of course thanks Jane for organising it. Biggest thank you to Tango and nman for putting up with me all the way to sunny hunny & back to Huntingdon. Tango, sorry I lost you on the way back; was too busy tailgating nman. Gixxer pull, you know what i mean.
  3. Oh, do you do that too??? Yeah, that puts me off comms, that and the swearing There are two modes in the intercom: you can activate it via pressing a button or it transmits everything (when it is in VOX mode). But I haven't got a suggestion for swearing, I couldn't manage to filter it yet.
  4. I've got the same set with the 'mic. on a stick.' Mic is a bit of a nuisance as my helmet is flip front, i have to tuck it in from the chin (i am taking it back to shop - as it has a strange noise every time I move it ) But it is handy at the same time, 'cos you don't have to keep the lid on to talk to your pilli/other biker. Wind noise is no problem, its AGC (Automatic Gain Control) and VOX adjusts themselves really well in conjuction, which increases the volume as the engine noise goes up, prevents you from hearing the wind (I've got a SHOEI multitec helmet with whisper kit - which required a bit fiddling to poke the wires through). Communication is superb, sometimes we need to tap on the Channel A if one of the riders is disconnected (dunno why, will let you know when I figure out) It has an in built FM radio (on the go or saved stations - again I need to figure out on the go stations). It pairs to the phone, and can be connected to the mp3 player via jack. I am not happy with my music experience at the minute, as my phone doesn't auto-continue to play after an intercom call comes, but its volume is relative to my speed and it is the other way around with mp3 player. Solution: Iphone 5, me thinks I shall pair the sods and let them decide the calls, gps, voice commands and music. I will test it with an iTouch first and let you know. So far, all I could say is that it is an ultimate kit to do everything you may want, but you need to allow time to get used to it, no good buying it for tomorrow setting off to a Europe tour.
  5. I am up for it, i've never been to the Pod, so this might be a good time to get going. Cheers.
  6. she'll be going back on the rear of nman's bike, you know, the gixxer pull. the gixxer pull. pmsl...
  7. I am after an R1, I must have been dreaming. Well not particularly neil on R1. hmmm. doesn't sound that bad actually... Cheers.
  8. Tango told me it was Do you think it got lost in translation? I was wondering how I missed it last week, and thought he was wearing different gear. confused.com. Will have a closer look next week.
  9. Maybe you need a more upright riding position, I am open to offers if you want swapsy... I was admiring your R1 as you were leaving yesterday, although you were on it.
  10. "funny walk" if you had my bad back, hips and ankles you`d walk with a slight limp. Fortunately I`m seeing the doctor again on Friday so hopefully he will be able to help. Sorry, i thought it was the boots Hope everything goes allright with the doc.
  11. It was nice to meet you Ash, and to see nman with his funny walk...lol. All sorts of bikes and bikers, and of course fab. company thanks to Tango & Bonniebird. I still feel sorry for the guy dropped his bike tho.
  12. Parrtyyyy. any time. Surely we can look into it. Do you need help with the move?
  13. Hey nobody told me that was an option, is there enough booze in the fridge Neil, for the party the night before?
  14. I can't guarantee the ultimate entertainment, but I'll try my best.
  15. Ninja 250. If you see it parked give it a nudge, you'll see me storming towards the bike...lol
  16. I vote too. I don't mind the time, I was gunna whiz around all day anyway, I am ok with the place as well (if only I could find it on the map! ) C'mon Jane, 11 is not morning, you can make it You even did the rain, surely this is not a biggy in comparison.
  17. I told you my neighbours think I am gunna wash away my bike one day, didn't I? That's why I had to sneak out when they weren't around so they don't see my 'daily ritual' as they named it... Of course I cleaned it; had to wash it with all the mud EvErYwHere. Needs a bit wax & polishing, prob. a touch with the chain lub as well. http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/avatars/xinfii.gif?dateline=1222358749But I told her no getting out today and locked her in the garage, she might get out tomorrow if she's good.
  18. revs, just wear them a bit earlier when you going out for a ride, so that you will have a chance to walk in them rather than just starting the journey and realising they really hurt at one significant point which you can't rub on the go. (and I meant the feet here ) It feels and looks funny walking with new boots, but it will get easier in 10 min. or so, and it would only get comfy on the bike so that you can enjoy ur ride. Cheers.
  19. They look really nice, MotoX type but looks much better, and I bet they mould to your feet's shape dead easy.
  20. It was really nice to meet you too nman, as I said to Jane - it only brightened up! lol We got soaked as we stood there, then once we decided to make our way out it eased off a bit... Thanks to Tango and BonnieBird for fab. company. I'll be there next week too, fingers crossed for a better weather. cheers.
  21. Hey Tango, Not so much of a Billy-no-mates, eh? Thanks again.
