  1. A little more of a jaunt on the scoot today, just 100 miles but most of that is single track, supermoto style roads Up over the Blacks again through Llangadog and onto the West End Cafe in Llandovery, an expensive bacon roll and cup of tea (£5.90 robbing bastards) Then onto the lane up to Llyn Brianne Overlooking the damn, looks like there's lots of construction work going on there Anything over 40mph on these roads get's pretty exciting, very tight and twisty but rarely used by cars Some of the stunning views, my pics don't do it justice On to the view point, yes I had to ride a little "off piste" to get there Last stop at Llyn Brianne before moving on Down the "Devil's Staircase" and onto Abergwesyn Pass, again, tight twisties, gotta be careful here, the road often drops away with hidden dips but these are often immediately followed by a bend, go over the hump too quick and you'll run off the road and down the bank Into Llanwrtyd Wells (the smallest town in Britain then through Tirabad and onto the Sennybridge ranges, these are military ranges with a road running through them which is mostly open to the public except when they're using live fire maneuvers They have a fake village in the ranges where they hold exercises Onto the A40 and turn off at Trecastle to get on the Trecastle road and head South on the East side of the Black Mountain I rode over earlier Straight down the A4067 to home then, very nice few hours out relaxing and fun at times, especially nearly getting taken out the other side of the blacks by a Lambourghini, Ferrari and Porche none of whom seems to be able to stay on their side of the road when coming round bends< I suspect they were there filming as the road is often used by motoring programs

  2. On Wednesday night I had a call from a mate in Reading asking if I fancied meeting up with him and three mates, along with another friend from Southampton at the air museum near Salisbury. Seemed like a plan so set off to get there by 1130. Of course I arrived far too early. Then the rest of them turned up after I'd had the worst cup of tea in living memory. Was well pleased to see this Gloucester Meteor as I probably saw it flying from Llanbedr airfield when I was in primary school nearby And this was one of the drones that they also flew from there. Some of the exhibits My mate from Southampton trying to figure out how to get out Biggles Stopped at this War Cemetery on the way to Avebury. And then after riding past the stones at Avebury stopped for a much needed beer. We rode up to Swindon because the stupid GPS on my mate's bike led us there for fuel. A group bomb burst and a quick blast down the M4 to Reading for a kebab and red wine, before heading home on the Friday along a gridlocked M4 as far as Chepstow. Good to meet a few new faces, and hopefully there will be another ride somewhere interesting before too long. Great collection well worth visiting run by a knowledgable and friendly bunch of volunteers. Highly recommended.

  23. For some reason this reminded me of a story from years ago involving my dull mate Lee's twin brother. His name was Neil and they were in a night club in town chatting to a couple of girls both of them about 18 years old at the time. My dull mate Lee was getting on ok with the girl he was chatting up but Neil was getting nowhere with his and she had started being rude to him which pissed him off, so he went to the toilet and when he came back he said to my dull mate Lee lets go, after having a bit of a row over why he wanted to leave Lee agreed and left in a huff thinking he was in with that girl. Once they were outside Neil told Lee the real reason he wanted to leave, It was because when he was in the shitter he caught his turd in some toilet paper and had slipped it into the handbag of the girl that was pissing him off Still makes me laugh when i think of it chuckling to myself now as i typed this

  28. Alberta, Canada is about 20 miles behind us as we have to get on the interstate to head back. Got dark on us and made for a long day, but worth it. Interstate highway was completely void of any traffic (the road doesn't really go anywhere) and we were able to move along a really good pace....

  40. Yes, the X-Max will do 95mph and cruise effortlessly at 70/80mph all day long in great comfort and ease, no clutch pulling, no flicking up and down gears in traffic/bends, just roll on/off the throttle. Quite enjoying the relaxing ride and still has plenty of punch for overtakes
