I would venture a guess that it's a Canuckistan slang term for "Blipped".... guess that happens when a squad of queers drink too much & ride qwads in the snow...

I have several times, especially when I was younger. As teanagers we all used to hang at Polmear Cafe. One wet day I had to go, in my dads work gear yellow leggings and donkey jacket. I had a Suzuki TS185, I jumped up high to kickstart it in true moto crosser fashion, as we all did for no reason back then, only for my foot to slip off the kickstart and it to shoot up the inside of my nanaman leggings and stop me putting my foot down as I slowing fell over to the right with momentum. Of course all my mates were watching and cheered. Bastards. By the time I got out from under the bike one twat had written 6.0 on two sheets of A4 in Olympic gymnastic style and was holding it up to the window. Of course the piss was takenmfor weeks after

FIFTY SHADES OF GREY BY PAM AYRES The missus bought a Paperback, down Shepton Mallet way, I had a look inside her bag;... T'was "Fifty Shades of Grey". Well I just left her to it, And at ten I went to bed. An hour later she appeared; The sight filled me with dread. In her left hand she held a rope; And in her right a whip! She threw them down upon the floor, And then began to strip. Well fifty years or so ago; I might have had a peek; But Mabel hasn't weathered well; She's eighty four next week!! Watching Mabel bump and grind; Could not have been much grimmer. And things then went from bad to worse; She toppled off her Zimmer! She struggled back upon her feet; A couple minutes later; She put her teeth back in and said "I am a dominator!!" Now if you knew our Mabel, You'd see just why I spluttered, I'd spent two months in traction For the last complaint I'd uttered. She stood there nude and naked Bent forward just a bit I went to hold her, sensual like and stood on her left tit! Mabel screamed, her teeth shot out; My God what had I done! She moaned and groaned then shouted out: "Step on the other one!!" Well readers, I can tell no more; Of what occurred that day. Suffice to say my jet black hair, Turned fifty shades of grey!!

Here’s my effort for February………look it’s even got pretty blossom in the background.

@boboneleg has been spotted with his posse. https://www.facebook.com/reel/3696490163822025/?fs=e&s=TIeQ9V&fs=e&fs=e

Well what can I say but “GET IN!” You’ll all be riding Chinese by the end of the year

My one is when I got my kawasaki eliminator me and my dad had just got to the bike dealer and it is sat out front brand new, so after talking to the owner of the shop we said our goodbyes, I got on the bike took it off the sidestand and promptly fell over as I was surprised by the weight, anyway picked it up and dusted myself and the bike down, no damage to either, it was sat back on its sidestand so I thought ok lets try this again... so again I sat on the bike, flipped the sidestand back up and lost balance and over it went on to its other side.... As it happened 3rd time lucky I had it upright and off we went

He's not riding an Indian.

Just been out and got some fuel and fired the Sprint up. Sounds awesome to my ears. Started up reasonably quickly once the fuel got through. Came off choke and I had to adjust the tickover slightly but that was it. Impressed that my low fuel light decided to join the party with fuel in the tank. Everything is working including the fan. No reason not to ride it now. I will start with a few short trips until I am used to it, but I haven’t felt like this about a bike since I had my 1978 R100RS.

Balance is restored

Yeah, but what can I do about it? My bike has PEDALS so I'm automatically DQ'd.....at least it has the correct number of wheels...ffs I'm just that amputee NuklHed that posts pics of machines & places that we'd like to have or pay a visit to.

Too nice out there to work so went for a walk. Got Mandi to drop me off in Acle on her way to work. 14 miles to get home and my knees ain't happy. Should have put me boots on too.

When did you become the spelling check police ? Tourette....is that better ? Lol.

Next time.

I think @Saul did an excellent job of bike of the month.

What happens with a group of gay men in the woods stays in the woods.

Lightweight.

Only out for a couple of hours and 55 miles but had to take advantage of the weather. Pretty skies.

Out on the atv...beautiful sunny days...

Bitumen sprayers are classed as plant. I didn't realise you had packed in proper driving, probably a wise choice given your track record though.

I’m sure it wouldn’t be the first time you had a wet arse.

My shed has been named the ‘Healing Shed’ according to Shadow. Her bike is now resident as I am going to tidy it up again. First job is to get these scratches out that were caused by Storm Goretti a few weeks ago. I was given a random orbital car polisher for my birthday several years ago. I never used it, don’t really care about polishing cars that much, plus my car is pretty good paint wise. Today was the day to try it out to see if I could fix Shadows tank. I was surprised how well it worked with just Autoglym polish. Bit to big and cumbersome for a bike really but it certainly worked well. The results aren’t perfect but pretty presentable. Mucky bleddy thing to use though. I got as much polish on me as I did the bike. Tucked away for the night, I am going to touch in the rust sections on the frame and crash bars tomorrow. Loads of little things to do. And I don’t doubt Shadow will want it back then to smash up again. I don’t mind really.

Just had some foamy therapy cleaning up the CBF and Shadows bike. Also had a close look at what needs to be done cosmetically after Shadows damage and storm Goretti’s damage to it. Not to bad really few bits and bobs to be paired and some paint correction (polishing) on the tank. A few days in the healing shed will get most of it done.

Time to get you pictures up for February. Rules are as before. Picture must be landscape, must be a bike you still own, no photoshop, no AI, must be a Motorcycle. my decision is final. Thanks for running BOTM Pedro you did a cracking job I will start a poll on the 27th so you have 3 days to get your pictures up.

Cheers Mate, sounds like a Triumph 855, quite a mechanically noisy engine but that's how they all sound . Compared to my Honda's it's like a Thrashing machine next to a Sewing machine but I have gotten used to the contrast now I know it's supposed to be like that I have listened to quite a few first gen Hinckley triples over the last few months.

The Sprint is read to be used, I won’t say finished as it has done 50,000 miles and is 28 years old, there is always going to be something. Only thing left on the list for me though is a wheel refurb and to paint the valve cover but apart from that I don’t know of anything that needs doing. Both of those will be a next winter jobs. Last few new bits for today. I bottled using the black plate so bought a new standard one. Also a new Triumph vacuum line for the fuel tap, I wasn’t happy with the line on it. Also a new knob for the fuel tap as the original one is blobbed up with Araldite or so sort of epoxy. Before refitting the clutch cover I stripped and checked the clutch plates. All friction plates right at the top of the Triumph spec at 3.8 mm or just above. The plain plates all had no measurable warping. I would hazard a guess that this is not the original clutch. While it was apart I fitted the EBC heavy duty clutch springs. Supposed to be 15% stiffer than standard, couldn’t tell really but the action seems much more positive. Hoping the slip I had was due to the slave cylinder which I have already rebuilt So all back together, just need to get some E5 and take it out for a shake down. Gonna wait for a dry day though and give myself every chance to get used to it before I go on any group rides. I so wanted to give it a major polishing but want to give the engine cases plenty of time to cure before touching them. They will get a satin finish and lose the shine over time, like standard.

Easy Tiger no one said that, your cycle has a motor, qualifies as far as I am concerned. Also all you scooterists don't be offended you have 2 wheels and a motor

Rigged theres no bins anywhere in site

Well, after dealing w/ a plugged up sewer pipe running through my yard....that the neighbor is also attached to...for a month now...finally got it fixed yesterday. 6ft. of pipe was completely plugged w/ tree roots that was on the hillside of the front yard. Had a plumbing outfit come out w/ an excavator & dig it up...replaced the plugged section w/ PVC pipe & then back fill the deep-a$$ trench they dug. The amount of sh*t water that came out when they cut out that section of pipe was astonishing. Now all I have to do is recap the 2 clean-outs in the yard & then wait for the (probably Stoopid expensive bill) the show up. Fortunately, the neighbor has agree'd to split the bill w/ me since his 130 y/o house was probably the 1st house on this hillside back in the day. I'm just glad it's done. Next ordeal is to start collecting materials to re-roof my garden shed....which should be a lot easier on the wallet.

After cleaning the CBF I decided to go out for a bimble and ended up doing 100 miles. Headed over to Bodmin then on to follow the North Coast Road West. Bloody windy but not cold. I had my leather and summer gloves on and was plenty comfy. Heated grips on of course. A couple of miles from home I realised I hadn’t taken a single photo, in fact I don’t think I even put a foot down so I stopped and did Lovely chilled out ride on the CBF that is a joy to be on.

It's the way I have been bred.
