Guest Posted December 25, 2019 Posted December 25, 2019 Have a good one guys! And I'm including the Gammons, Casuals, Wannabes, Deviants, Moped Tuning Kiddies, and Chinese bike owners in that as well. Season of goodwill to all men etc etc.....Anyway, just had Xmas Dinner.......now I'm too bloated to get on the Strom at the moment! But I will....watch this space! Quote
Guest Posted December 25, 2019 Posted December 25, 2019 If you want to see what a real man does at Xmas.....then follow the link!I believe if Steve McQueen was still alive today he'd be doing something similar!

Gsx750f boy Posted December 25, 2019 Posted December 25, 2019 Xmas isn't what it was you know......back in the 70's it consisted mainly of getting shitfaced, crashing bikes, overturning cars, wrecking restaurants, running from the law.....and slags! As many as possible!Now I'm an OAP those avenues of pleasure are now firmly closed off to me so I'll be here in Spain with the missus. No family around as they're all thousands of miles away. I still have to be available should there be a server issue or client query (both unlikely) ......but no sites to actually build till January. The last one of the year was completed today.Weather looks great this week though......so expect some pics and vids containing Styling and Profiling© with the occasional bit of Rugged Individualism©. So come on guys......what you got planned? Last year I spent Christmas day on the island of Koh Phi Phi with my wife on our honeymoon, drinking beer and eating a proper Thai curry.This year I'm sober on Christmas day for the first time in about 14 years or so, awaiting the imminent birth of my first child, due any day nowMerry Christmas get some sleep now when u can lol...get a good cover for bike and a smart charger and red bull lol...all the best to u and wife mate but advise to u ...don't look down lol Quote
Guest Posted December 26, 2019 Posted December 26, 2019 Out for a couple of hours today.....temps 18C so still unusually warm for Xmas! Unfortunately the light was really bad.....which is also unusual here in Spain.I'm sure the Earth's axis has moved! Quote

Korean, Fatboy Kim with all his subterranean nuclear bomb testing. It didn't get dark here in the UK until 9.30 last night? Quote

Weird shit going on!Talking to a FB mate in Poland.......he was telling me that 25 years ago they regularly had temps down to -30 over Winter and bikes would be sidelined till late Spring.Now he's still riding his bike in December!

Guest Posted December 26, 2019 Posted December 26, 2019 Out today......on the road to Santiago de la Espada! 25 miles of twisties and hairpin bends with sheer drops either side and wild animals like boar and deer running across the road at any time! As it's in the middle of nowhere with no mobile coverage it's not a good place to bin it! Quote
Joeman Posted December 26, 2019 Posted December 26, 2019 Merry Christmas you lot.I'm spending the festive season in Copenhagen drinking lots of beer I can't pronounce the name of!!It's 5.6% so does the trick nicely Quote
Moonraker Posted December 26, 2019 Posted December 26, 2019 Thanks for the messages all.Srillw waiting...still sober Quote

I've decided not to worry about it. The UK is getting some really warm (sometimes hot) air coming up from Spain, it's not doing the butterflies and Orchids any harm, and Christmas lunch outside was just superb this year.

Smithers Posted December 28, 2019 Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) Out this afternoon......and a herd of donkeys came to look at the Strom! They looked at your Radar Dome that's on the back of the bike and probably thought it was feeding time. Either that or they thought you were the Messiah. Edited December 29, 2019 by Smithers Quote
