Took the big Honda to the dealer today for the yearly MOT.. well they came with a van to take it away, Full of cold myself or Dying of man flu...ill-ist bloke who ever survived anyway got my Honda ANF125 back from my mate. I loaned it to him 5 years ago when he had a Heart attack and could not ride a bigger bike...so now the power house is back home bought it to use as a shopper..got a 150 power kit to fit and Ali wheels from a Honda sum-ut-else so i can fit better tyres..will do for the winter.

Feel for you Mate. i took the lads cat Zippy to the local Vets ( part of a uk group as most are today) they charge an arm and a leg the Bar-stuards >>> told me theyeye had to be removed and would cast 1 point 5 K What!!!! could be 2K if problems........Found a local 9miles away who do the farms and Horsey folk.. But good for families.. Total bill with 3 weeks care after the op to remove his eye £600.. and they called for 8 weeks to make sure he was OK.. Lyn/

Hopefully it will turn out to just be a cyst.

Shadow is home and safe in and a fair bit of pain but she will be fine in time, she will learn. In two years and 20,000 miles she has been down twice, her fault, and knocked off once, not her fault. I know I went down a few times at her age through being young and reckless so I am not too quick to judge her. I do trust her though she is good on a bike but still just 19 and thinks she is bullet proof.

Just getting back from the Vet...been dealing with my dog for a solid month trying to care for for it...she's 13 years old....to me it looked like somekind of cancer growth inside her left ear...some days she appeared ok and some she would scratch till it was bleeding....tell you the thruth...I was reluctant to take her to the vet...cause I didn't want to put the dog down...and in my mind...that's what I was figuring what the Vet would tell me to do... Called about a month ago...for and appointment....it's ridiculous around here...take that long to get and appointment....or you can call and emergency # where they spank you for 200 bucks even before seeing the dog...and you're talking to a chat bot when they first take your information....lol. We use to have local and privately family owned veterinary clinics...but now it's one of those chain stores Vet clinic... Make a long story short...this Sunday I made my mind to take her in....found a private owned vet clinic just on the quebec border and heard they will look at the dog...they give you one of those electric buzzer and you wait outside till it rings...

Are you trying to be funny...lol...I have friends from all over the world...and not internet friends like you have...lol.

Right, some “friends”

Glad she's ok Saul...but Dam ! How many times has she crashed..? I'd be worried crazy if I was in your situation every time she'd leave the house...not saying it's the case...but some just can't ride motorcycle...I have a few friends..they've been riding for years and they still can't ride ...some are so bad that I refuse to ride with them... Anyway wishing her a speedy recovery...might be time to get her two extra wheels...

Hope she recovers ok, it must be a dilemma to keep her on a bike because it’s so great for her vs the risks. Unfortunately motorcycles come with risks. is she home and comfortable now? ps: I am starting to think she might need a boxer / telelever BMW

She's keeping you busy Saul. She's young so will hopefully heal fast, faster than us lot anyway. Hope she's not in too much pain, shoulders can be a bitch.

Did you teach her how to ride? It's beginning to look that way.

Praying for a speedy recovery for Shadow...

All the best Shadow hope you heal quickly.

Bloody hell shadow, glad its not as bad as it could have been, hopefully she will make a full recovery and that she mostly isnt broken, just the bike and gear, which can all be replaced. Wishing her a speedy recovery

Well she has but with more consequences this time. Off to A&E in the ambulance this time. Feared something broken in her right shoulder. Luckily the medics think not now but we are waiting for the all clear from radiology. She hyper flexed her shoulder which was explained to me as it popping out and then back in. Thank goodness she had all her gear on so the amour took the road rash although she does have a bit of a burn on her shoulder and knee. She has ligament and muscle damage with an expected recovery of 6 to 12 weeks. Ruined her jacket and bike jeans but we don’t care about that they did their job well. Not keen on seeing her rushed off in the ambulance but she will heal and be fine. She is gutted because she had to postpone her A2 test in November to next year. She avoided a common manhole cover that we all do but with to much vigor and the left foot peg dug in the hedge the momentum threw her off to the right. She reckons she was doing around 45 mph so really lucky she never hit anything. The police were good and helpful the Mrs and I were there within 10 minutes of the crash and luckily an off duty nurse got there before us. Her lying in the road is not something I would ever want to see again. But she is home and on the mend. Some one was watching over her yesterday that’s for sure. Anyway I’m currently sorting her bike yet again. These CB125F’s are surprisingly resilient. Only cosmetic damage again. I got the bent foot peg bar off and put it with her collection which has gone up to her uncle to be repaired.

TDM passed its MOT last week. Now going to fit another new battery. We're half way through the month now and I'm thinking of waiting till the end of the month to tax it.

Temps in the 50'sF today...still nice enough for another spin on the Mullet...
