HARTFORD MARINA - Organise your meets here!!

[acemastr]

I can't wait, get to show off the new bike some more

 

It's only a Honda, come on now. If it were a Suzuki, we all know you'd be ten times more excited to show it off.

 

If it was a Suzuki it would have rusted away by now

[Seabluegal]

My Suzuki hasn't rusted away and it's 11 years old...!!!

[Ash]

That's because you only ride it if it's 20 degrees + and the sun is shining

[Guest]

it's actually to do with the powers of the special "S" badge.

A well known fact within motorcycle circles is that any lesser badge, espcially Honda, Kawasaki, Aprilla etc all cause nasty yeast infections and general ill health in their riders. I knew this, as I felt ill until I got a Suzuki. Since then, all has been well. I thank you.

[Seabluegal]

You know what Gubba, you are so right.

But Ash is right too - I do only ride it if the sun is shining, but to be fair I will go out in anything over 15 degrees, as long as it's not windy.

[sparkeh9]

I'll go out in anything above -5 LOL

[Seabluegal]

You are clearly a proper biker.

I am definitely not.

[Guest]

i went out at the weekend, 5 degrees with a significant wind that caught me out a couple of times on roundabouts! Ursula behaved though.

[Seabluegal]

Sounds terrible.

Suzy is due out this weekend for her MOT. I'm not sure how she will cope. She has been hibernating for so long in the warm garage...

[Guest]

Suzy? I don't believe that's it's name.

I have a funny feeling it was "Sigmund"

[Seabluegal]

Gubba - I think you'll find that Laura and I hold the authority on naming bikes.

You should remember your place!

[acemastr]

I won't go out in anything below 3c anymore, it can still be icy and there's no way i'm risking dropping my (unnamed) baby.

I didn't know you were a dad! congratulations. Does it not say on the birth certificate what it's name is?!

oh, and to avoid dropping, use a pram/buggy. This will help in icy conditions, but you are still as likely to fall over.

[Seabluegal]

[acemastr]

funny f**ker

[Guest]

come on Jayne, think of a new name for A's bike!

[Seabluegal]

That's a good point actually, Twinkles has gone hasn't she!

Laura and I will brainstorm some new names tonight... I think we already had a few ideas at the Marina a few weeks back.

: wicked laugh :

[Guest]

so....."tiny" it is. Classic.

have a good weekend all. Might be about sunday afternoon for a ride, however, I might be catching up on some sleep!

[Seabluegal]

Yes of course, we should confirm...

Aaron's (acemastr) bike is officially named Tiny.

He should be very proud.

[acemastr]

screw you all I can hear her crying from under her cover

[Holliday675]

haha lol just read the name is official go TINY

[Ash]

Was out running lastnight and saw a group of three sports bikes heading towards the Marina, so it may be starting to pick up again.

[nman1]

could well be Ash. Wait till after the clocks go forward and I`m sure a few more will get there.

[Guest]

yeah, was at my mates at the marina, definitely a few turned up. only a couple of weeks until the clocks change....woohaa.

[acemastr]

Did notice a couple of bikes in there on Tues when i went past... in the car
