A sore arse?

After a emusified pork tube sandwich with brown sauce and tea it was time for a Sunday Bimble. I wanted to enter the BOFTM so despite it being a bit drab weather wise I thought I would give it a go to get some shots of the bike. Only went about 50 miles but thoroughly pleasant ride, hardly any traffic and no rain on B roads, the perfect place for a Himalayan.

My day started sat here wasting my life catching up on things when i spot the plod knocking on a neighbours door on the CCTV, It wasn't long before they were knocking my door as they had spotted my CCTV camera. Apparently our neighbour left her front door unlocked last night and someone had been in and stolen her bag while she was home in bed and her son in law was flat out on the sofa after a skin full. After an hour of staring at the CCTV footage i found someone entering her house, the footage is very poor but you can just make him out trying the two doors before the one he entered, he's in there for about a minute and you can see him on the doorstep casually looking through her bag as if he lives there. Don't know if the CCTV is any good for them but now they know its one guy and which direction he went and what time so they can check any other CCTV in the area

Those boots are nearly as gay as the boots that @XTreme wears

Cos you ain't ridden your barge that's why!

I'm in!

MUFFS !!! muffs are on

I know I am going to be accused of being boring or even gay or both but I came back from my Bimble today with filthy boots. No biggie just going clean and waterproof them as normal but the bossy (middle) daughter got involved and told me I was doing it all wrong. Of course equine riding boots/saddles/tack ect get much better care according to her. So under her direction after wetting the boots I first used Oiled Saddle Soap. Let that dry for 20 minutes buffed, then moved on to Leather balm which you apply and polish off like normal shoe polish. Finished off with a rub with leather conditioner. Apparently they will be waterproof after this, just need to repeat weekly. I gotta say they do look, smell and feel nice, whether I ever do all of that again is debatable and I do have a sneaky feeling I am being set up to buy more product for her as all the tubs I used were nearly empty. It looked like expensive German stuff to Mind you I don't care, I get precious little time in her company so it was nice to do something together.

My submission now features a monkey which shows that anyone can ride a GS and even monkeys have taste!

A bit of wee came out because I laughed so much at this picture.

A course on what cos she flew through her free loader finals and graduated with honours

I saw these clips the best part of 20 years ago.....never realised how accurate they are.

The one on my bike was cool, the other one was a twat!

Talking about boots. These are my 11 year old Sidi trials boots, if you look at the articulated piece at the rear you can see what happens if you’re changing gear with your heel for 11 years

Don't worry, I'll never be able to underestimate you enough.

I was out at 11am......and it was a bit nippy then. But I should have my handguards on soon so that'll help. Today I wanted to revisit a station that I went to in the Summer of 2020......but I was in the car then en-route to Albox for the Brit Supermarkets. So it's not the same. The unusual thing about Tijola is it's one of the very few which actually has a Locomotive on display there: the restored RENFE diesel 11339 'TIJOLA'. The station itself was opened in 1894 and linked the provinces of Granada, Almería and Murcia. It finally closed on December 31st 1984 when all lines were shut down. Some of the old railway equipment still remains in place there, and the station building has since been restored and used as a restaurant.

so whens fatty back home i'm starting to get addicted to this soap and need the next episode

Nice one Saul. Just had a breakfast myself to help clear a think head, didn't work.

I don't know why you are laughing you ginger bumboy!

In but not with a chance

Nec bike bike show yesterday , at the triumph factory now in Hinckley

@boboneleg you will have to make your mind up you can only enter one photo for BOTM personally i like this one

Yes, just emphasizing that they weren't very good quality Tight arse struck again.

The boy must be very good with the flour

And they say its healthy for you....... That shit is not going anywhere near my mouth

we know @XTreme is a bit of an old women , just want to see if he is being a bit harsh on the girl

Today in random photos:

you having em round for christmas dinner... the time for family .

She could be the star of a show she doesn't know shes in, a bit like the truman show.

Thanks for not letting me down Bob

Cool, love anything to do with trains. My dad was a Guard for BR for years when I was a kid, it all fascinated me. I used to love running around in his guards hat. . There was and still is to a certain extent a massive goods yard near where I grew up, and a big chunk of the village worked there. You could always tell if the dad worked BR because their house was always painted cream and brown inside, of course the paint all came from the same place buckshe.

I take your point but my Boots were ebay cheapies, only cost £40 so no sign of Gortex anywhere near them. My other boots are army surplus despatch rider boots from the 1950's, where you put shopping bags over you feet before the boots when it rains. I have yet to have had the pleasure of some decent boots with Gortex. Maybe one day.

Cool, I have just shown Kady, she reckons they are spicy, which sounded positive. I don't get involved much with the cost, basically my Mrs works to pay for the two we Loan, rent and pay livery for. There has been much talk about buying but I have been against it because as soon as we do it will be another pet whether the thing is suitable for them to ride at that moment or not. At least with loaning once they outgrow the horse they can move on.

Horse stuff is bloody expensive......the wife has got two.

They do but I reckon to replace all that product for her may cost more than the boots.

Fixed

It's hiding under the heading 'something else' , he's trying to throw us off the scent

So you're submission is a train? You're as bad as Buckster..... Pete this is a BIKE forum mate didn't you get the memo? Oh someone has parked a pushbike with a Honda sticker in front of it I see it now

hers one of the pair of em...

Well Pete did.....so anything is possible I mean he is his right hand man now....so maybe he did it to fit in with Bob and Pete

the tea boy

Ah ! so you've bought a CB500X . @XTreme has rubbed off on you (as it were )

Forgot to say Happy Sunday… HAPPY SUNDAY Had one of my favourite lazy Sunday lunches. No peeling potatoes, only one pan to wash and with the peppers, garlic n dusting of paprika makes it a feel a bit Spanishy too Washing it down with a crisp white wine also helps improve things a wee bit Before n after Mr Slowly first made this for me on Mother’s Day about 15 years ago, the brownie points went off the charts

Took this morning looking across the river to Polruan

Bike porn … Norton
