"Smell my finger"

I’m in the far south too, but every 3-4 years we get a good dump of snow…makes riding a bit difficult. And of course as we don’t have equipment to clear it we need to wait until it melts or the local farmers clear it. Dog included for scale

Have you ever ridden the Busa far enough to get cold hands?

Waiting for a parcel this morn but WSB on at 1pm and MotoGP sprint at 2. Need to go to Yarmouth for the bank and have a look at electric razors in Boots. Have a brawn at the mo and its fair to say it's never been the closest of shaves. More time getting the plaster board off the back of the tiles, getting towards the end of them now. Need to spend some time on the tracer too as it feels like it's running lean. And it's bloody filthy, riding it would be nice too. Just been told we need to do some shopping aswell, joy.

I’m wandering from bar to bar in Milan. It’s so comfy outside! In a tshirt and it feels like you’re at home.

Not having heated grips is just not civilised, these days Wait until she tries a heated seat!

The BFG. I used to play rugby with a guy we called the BNG, he thought it was for Big Nasty Ginger, it wasn't, to us he was Big Nosed Ginger. Obviously not to his face as he was an evil fucker on the pitch.

haha iv done a few 250 mile stints

i found heated grips got way too warm for my liking, i much prefer just a decent pair of winter gloves but each to their own

I think I find him difficult as he is typical of the Hoorays that move here or buy holiday homes here and try and change the place. In fact that is just what his parents have done. They move here and complain about everything from church bells to roosters, I would rather they went back to the sirens and stabbings that drove them here in the first place and changed things there.

No luck to him, i want to watch a youtube video of him squirming while striking a pose in his chinos.

You’re obsessed with penis … @Buckster say a prayer for this man to steer him away from the sin of enjoying penis

No .. mrs , sister, niece .7 of us all together and Elvis got better

Mitas Touring Force! They got a few smiles and were fucking amazing! By amazing, I mean we survived, and I’m glad I took the downhill route Might be a spoiler to my ride report thread but I’m now drinking a dessert in a nice place in Milan so there!

Wants him to take a package no doubt.

Nephew got dragged up on stage by an Elvis impersonator, ( supposedly) and dressed the twat up as a post box

Yes it's looking that way for a few weeks. But she has started College now so only available Monday or Friday. I have just bought her a set of winter riding gear, decent Jacket, waterproof over trousers, Drystar Gloves and some Gortex lined boots. I can see heated grips are going to be on the agenda to. Oh and some steel toe cap safety boots and 2 x cargo working trousers, as she wants to learn Carpentry and Roofing. Been a spendy week, one saving is that small riding gear doesn't cost as much.

Do you find all the Yorkie bars help?

Everytime, but being technically good isn't always that much of an advantage if you can't hold your temper. Wind your opponent up and he will spend more time trying to hurt you than getting his technique right then you have him. I agree though if you control the looseheads elbow, clamp his arm, break his bind he is going up or down, if his feet are wrong, and it's your penalty, also he won't be able to stop you boring in on the hooker ruining his day. A good tighthead will give your team a massive advantage, it's why they get paid the big buck nowadays. You will take a few digs for it but dominate the front row, charm the ref, and the games is yours most of the time. Especially in the lower leagues. Look at Julian Whites showreel. Some bleddy boy even if he is from Devon.

iv played front row for 12/13 years so far, yeah the old adage of no backwards step no matter what and yeah being strong is a factor but someone who is technically good will normally trump brute strength and no technique

I did too, played across the front row for 25 years or so. Tighthead was my favourite position, more opportunity to be an awkward fucker. Age, experience and sheer bloody mindedness, all a props friend. Being strong is a factor but being vicious and sneaky are too. I miss rugby, last time I played was when I was 42, 59 next week.

i played rugby last night and ended up going through 3 props throughout the game, after the match one of them came up to me and asked what the fuck i'd done to him as he thought he'd win over me easily, so i just pointed to my noggin and said its up there mate, its called nouse.... and then said you can be the biggest cunt going but unless you have nouse and technique its pointless. he was only a young 18 year old been playing in the front row for 7 yrs, bout 20st 6'2 and he was strong but control the arm of a loosehead and he cant do anything. his parting words were "i think ill have to get some more training from the other prop", who i also dispatched fairly quickly with and replied if i were you mate i wouldnt take scrummaging tips from him you'd learn nothing you dont already know, that and that he would improve with a few more years and playing against some more old heads of the game, he is still to reach his prime. i do loves a scrum!

im a giant... you dwarf

How fucking big are your feet?

I don't mind tinned fish. Especially like tinned mackerel, lovely snack straight from the can. I have heard of Surstromming but never smelt, don't want to change that really.

Get yourself a tin of Surstromming by mail order from Sweden, then get back to me about stinky canned fish once you have opened it. Its fermented herring, someone told me they open it in a bucket underwater to try to stop it stinking the house out.

To be fair there aren't that many here. I think there are about 4 Local Authority Houses left in Fowey. No council estates but originally there were four roads in the town that contained the bulk of the Council Houses but not exclusively, always were private houses as well so all roads had a Posh end.

The Elvis impersonator doesn’t look real either.

Looks like he's having a nap.

We really enjoyed Milan last April but it wasn't as warm then and rained quite a lot. Sit at a bar in a piazza with a coffee in the morning and just watch people, there are elegant peeps in Milan

Shit, he’s turning into real Elvis. Get away before it gets depressing and he gets overworked, fat, and dies!

That is a male stripper dressed as a military!!!

Not yet it's not her birthday until 18th of October so the bike is firmly locked in the shed at the top of the garden. We have had the 'who will know' discussion several times but I'm not going to let her start her biking on the wrong foot.

You keep digging the hole deeper don't you . The least they could expect is not to be secretly filmed and have it publicly posted on the internet. Tacit permission wasn't given just by being there, that's not how it works. If you told them what you were going to do before hand fair enough but I bet they wouldn't have come. You sound like a rapist that argues his victim was asking for it because she had provocative clothing and had consumed alcohol. It's weird perverted behaviour. Jokes is jokes, funny or not, but actually doing it is a whole different thing.
