Our town has an annual race up a hill - mostly T- buckets and pre-1940's - in September. I'll post pics of it when it happens. Tons of cool cars.

I thought this would be more your style Tym

Why would you say that?

It would just so i could restore that trailer, vintage camping trailers are worth a huge $$$ premium over here lately.

Yeh there has been , been riding though, not stopping every two mins to take a fucking photo ….

As expected, having been roasted by the sun all weekend my days off are forcast shit. I went riding anyway and actually avoided getting wet today. 130 odd km and 2 and a half hours ish. the bike is set up just right and is bloody perfect

As I had put my tyres on yesterday, today was a test ride to make sure my wheel weren't going to fall off, nor the tyres deflate. I was going to take a ride to Canterbury, never been there, my licence has, some nonsense about not being allowed to cross double white lines, but I haven't. The weather report (lying fuckers) suggested that it was going to rain in Kent, so instead I decided to take a look at a bit of Suffolk coast. The pictures below, in no particular order are, Bawdsey Beach, then the old WW2 defences at Bawdsey Hall, plus the Napoleonic era defences at the same place. I thought there was only a single Martello tower, but walking back to my bike I saw what appeared to be two more across the fields. Finally Orford Castle. As I was approaching Bawdsey, the first thing I saw was what appeared to be yachts sailing across a field.

Top Man Eric! Me and you are having to carry these Casuals!

Headed out tomorrow on a 5 state, 3,000 mile ride and will begin a ride report tomorrow. So quit yer bitchin'.

Just a proper man flu the kind women don't understand so yes

Stopping every two minutes to take the bike out of the van to take a photo? Must be exhausting.

Great holiday for her.....stuck in a Transit while you wobble round the Peak district on a Sportsbike with it's fairing fallen off!

Washing machine broke evening before I came away .., hopefully she’s fixing the fucking thing .

tiger does about 52 mpg when just oodling around like yesterday. hooning around or autoroute work it drops to around 45 ish. when I first got it it was only doing 38 but that improved following the first service I had done.

Van prices have gone stupid because everyones trying to make their own campers. I looked into getting one last year, VW then transit, but moved any from the idea altogether.

Normally porn hub for me.

Either y;all start new threads or im just going to take selfies at the beach and post the pics. The Doctor said gain weight, guess what i said. #Not my doctor.

Show some initiative you fucking idiots!

Liar.

My ribs ..

More Rugged Individualism coming today @Six30?

So Earache posted lots of photos of a car parade the other day and one of them looked like the Willys Coupe that my boss used to drag race. I thought I'd put up some of the photos that are in our tea room...............

Suzuki people are the weird ones.

That’s a great feeling to have with your bike!

Gay.

nope, problem is really that any new job wants to pay minimum legal wage "to start with" which is basically 30% less than I currently earn.

Same with me, log on, read some of the posts, then I have things to do, I am just too lazy to log off.

Photos!......Ride report!......you getting him trained well. You have told him that there is no MOD gig in the offering here?.

I've logged on here and been distracted elsewhere and gone away for hours many times

I can see Six winning BOTM with one of those

Weather cheered itself up today …

Fuck Buckster and fuck your hugs … noncey twats

This is the van I drive in work, absolutely lovely drive

Not a great deal of words today as I'm going all Pedro-like. I went to have a look at some new (to me) Droves on the Somerset levels today. On the way I dropped down over Burledge Hill where there is evidence of some great lane management.......... Up over the Mendips and down through Wells, Glastonbury and Street to get to Somerton and onto the fun stuff. You get miles of this..............

Same thing, even worse I nearly dropped my bike today when stopped looking at google maps and up my collar crawls a giant grasshopper very curious about my face

A bit further on and it started to get a bit sticky, there is no gravel surface under this grass, it is pure peat and with the amount of rain we had yesterday it was slicker than a Beavers back end. The fun bit is trying to guess where the tractor ruts are under the grass so that you don't tip over in them............. After heaving my way though my thermostat started reaching boiling point so some clothing was removed and I made it back to terra firma. I carried on to do some more Droves which were pretty uneventful and then came to the North Drain. The North Drain does exactly what it says on the tin in that it drains the water off the Levels, there was a big shoal of Roach basking in the sun........... I started to head north now and back towards home, here you can see Nyland Hill (an extinct volcano) in the forground and the Mendip Hills in the distance as viewed from the Levels.......... Once I got up on the Mendips I stopped near Priddy at a convinient tree stump to sit on for lunch........... I had a quick look at a campsite (for future reference) and then made my way home. There will be some bike washing to be done tomorrow.

I see that I got a good reflection of the washing machine

and here's a couple of the race bikes he's built. The first one was called 'Bum Trinket'

I haven't.....I've got Baboon Bum and Nappy Rash again!

I've sort of given up on the environmentally friendly side of fuel use, As long as there's people in boats burning a £1000 worth of fuel in a weekend i don't think the amount of fuel i burn in a year is going to make the slightest difference to the environment

mpg on a bike has never bothered me only the guzzling range rover of which vehicle i will never own again

The dog was feeling a bit rough so after a few internal organ replacements it was ready to ride cover your eyes if your squeamish this is open heart surgery. The day started with the rebuild After a little work she lives A few hours later and i'm on the road but thinking i better not stray too far after the rebuild so up to my local byway . It was pointed out to me the shadow looks like a reindeer lol And then onto my mountain After a check for oil leaks it was onto check out a lane that was illegally closed but overturned by the TRF Then some of my favorite tarmac to sennybridge for fuel This is the end of the roman road out of Trecastle only took the photo because it doubled up as a piss stop Then onto the Crychan forest which has been graded and has made it easy enough to drive your car through now Then it was the ride home trying to keep it under 55. past the Llwyn Onn reservoir it was like a mirror these are photos of it up the right way and upside down you tell me which is which On the A470 i had to suffer the humiliation of a scooter rider burning me off because i was bedding things in the fucking wanker had the cheek to wave to me Bike ran beautifully restored my love for it again

Ive been busy crying and stuff just incase anyone was maybe slightly bothered by my absence. Ive been busy holding my dog while he died in my arms on saturday....not the mega old one thats been on deaths door, no that would be way too obvious and expected. Nope was the other one. Lifes a massive hoot just sayin.
