Cupid Stunt

It's the state of becoming aware that everyone who isn't white and male is underprivileged and that white males are all privileged and then acting upon it. Most notably like when Gillette launched their clearly biased advert which appeared to site white men as evil and all women and non whites as saviours, costing their business millions in lost revenue as they'd targeted their prime customer base, hence the phrase "get woke go broke" It's akin to what was being taught in schools and many institutions "Critical Race Theory" All this shit perpetuates racism and division and I'm bloody certain the far left financial supporters like George Soros know this very well

So, I looked at changing my wallpaper in google Chrome OS, the first thing I see is the categories of wallpapers available to me. 1, LGBTQ 2. Latino 3. Black 4. Landscapes No mention of White or Asian at all That's not fucking equality or inclusion, that's racism and exclusion

Nice report Pete, like the video/music combination I bet that bike runs on fumes, I know the 700x get's around 75mpg apparently

I need new gloves, coming back I set my satnav to get me out of Southampton via the "twisty" route but not long into the journey it decided there was congestion (who gives a fuck about that on a scoot/bike) and it re routed me back onto the "fast" route which is shit loads of boring motorway after shit loads of boring dual carriageway, it was ironically a further journey by an extra 20 miles, I suffered it all as I couldn't tap the "fuck off no thanks" button when the re routing message popped up, touch screen gloves required me thinks. Still it was a shit load of fun "filtering" through the miles and miles of backed up cars on the motorways as it was a Friday late afternoon mega rush period, plenty of cock sucking twat cagers who resent filtering and nudge their shitmobile over to try to block you and I had to show plenty of adventure bikers how it's done Good mpg, I was expecting it to be low as I wasn't exactly riding in a frugal manner but still got 73mpg, 187 miles in just over 3hrs

Yes mate

Though I am reporting that I rode somewhere 160 miles on my scooter to Southampton I had fitted my helmet with a Bluetooth thingy so I could listen to music and hear my satnat, fuck that, the ear pieces were a little snug at first, after an hour it felt like someone was crushing my head Still a ride with some pain is still tons better than driving Spoiled for choice of beds, here's the only pics I took

Yes, it's closed to vehicles though

Well, just had to get out on the scoot, it's been too hot lately but today was a little cooler at 22 deg Headed up the Tawe Valley to Defynog then cut across to the A470 to grab a cheese burger (fekin £4.80), down the A470 then over sheep mountain, one sheep came over asking if I'd seen Pete as she's missing him The plan was to drop in to see my old mate Martyn as I'd heard he set up shop again, he used to own Real World Motorcycles but quite for a few years, damned roadworks, I went round and eventually found the exit, off down to Mountain Ash where I found his new bike shop and cafe "Martyn's Motos", had a chat and caught up then back up to Hirwaun and the shit roundabout then off up Righos, I love these windy mountain roads with the 180 switchbacks, after Righos I wanted to invested a site for some future photographs then back tracked to run down in to Treorchy then up the Bwlch, down the Afan valley to Pontrhydyfen (where Richard Burton was born as every boring cunt Welshman will tell you ), then into Neath over the hills to Pontardawe where some wankstain pulled out on me, damned lucky I had quick reactions or I'd have been toast, would have slammed into the side of his 4x4 at 60mph. Pictures are in no particular order

It wasn't a "Jam sandwich" it was older than that, all blue old shape Rover 3.5, 1974

Yeah, apparently it still has to be taxed but at £0, no records now so I'd guess it has been scrapped for a very long time However the police car that used to stop us all the time as kids is still on record SMP619M it was a 3.5 rover

No idea mate, I would seriously doubt it Can't check it like modern vehicles as if it still existed it would be classed as an historical vehicle and exempt from MOT and Tax

My Dad's Lambretta, bought in 1955 for £155 plus 7/6p tax He kept it until 1973, Pete would never have a bike that long

Nice route that, done it several times, except the bit to Cardiff

I think Yen has been working in Wales as there's a lot of crappy adverse cambers Headed up the A4067 to Defynnog, A4215 over to the A470 stopped at Terry's burger van for a crappy overpriced burger, tasted OK though, headed south to pick up the "sheep mountain road" (A4059)past Hirwaun and up Rhigos mountain, dropped down the other side into Treherbert and Treorchy, up the Bwlch Mountain (no bloody icecream van ), through Abergwynfi and into Pontrhydyfen, under the Aqueduct and on to Cimla, Neath then home, 85 miles in all Scooter was great hitting an indicated 80mph on some mountain roads and nearly a ton up on the small stretch of motorway on the last leg to home, but I think Yen made the speedos on these as that clearly isn't right the wind on my gonads disagrees with the indicated figures Scoot handles great, very pleased with how it's solid even in strong winds. Disclaimer, all photos are crappy phone shots as although I had a proper camera with me I couldn't be arsed to get it out, I could just be arsed to get my phone out of my pocket so I did my best with that Also, the photos seem to have arranged themselves in any old random fashion they felt like Pontrhydyfen, the home of Sir Richard Burton and I think Anthony Hopkins or some other Welsh bloke who sold his soul to join the Hollywood pussies: Tom Jones is from near here too as is Rob Brydon and a Welsh lady who made some cakes and inventively named them Welsh Cakes DUH! The Bwlch: Rhigos: Sheep Mountain: A470 - Terry's Burger Van £5 for this piece of crap: A4215 Crai Reservoir, off the A4067:

Frank you mean

Old one Took a bunch of dirt bikers from Berkshire out on my 100 mile ride inc Brechfa Forest That little stream crossing catches loads out, I even caught Jenny Morgan (Dakar rider and Trail Bike Magazine journo) out there, she fell down the little waterfall Under the surface it's heavily ridged slate covered with algae, but the ridges run at a slight angle, gotta get both tyres in the same ridge or else bt you can't see them, you just have to know where they are

Bomb squad called to A&E when man came into hospital with WWII explosive stuck in his rectum He claimed that he fell on it https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/uk-news/bomb-squad-rushed-ae-after-22354925?utm_source=linkCopy&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sharebar

Damn it storm Arwen This bloody storm has knocked my garden waste bin over, God only knows what would have happened if it had something in it I had to walk all the way out there to set it upright Better not be another one next year

Ahhh the beauty of satnav as I used to say to you before then, it doesn't stop you venturing it does the opposite allowing you to follow your nose until you're totally lost then switch it on and get back easily You'll have to go back there now

Have you ridden the A-319 North west of you yet Pete? Looks like a stunning road and scenery

Well having said in another thread that drones are useless for spying as the cameras are ultra wide angle and even people fairly close are unrecognisable Well, not if it's me building one LOL, back in 2015 I decided to play around with some tech (as I do) and put a 10 x zoom camera onto a purpose built (by me) multirotor (drone) so if I could get stable video without too much shake I also tried a 30 x zoom camera but it was too shaky when zoomed in

There's no need for paranoia regarding drones, they have such wide angle views that you can't recognise a person even from 20ft away, people using them aren't interested in spying on people or invading privacy, drones are useless for that, they just want nice scenery and dramatic views

Not that many as a percentage of population but it will become more popular in a year or two when the new regulations fully kick in, manufacturers will be producing sub 250 gram drones by the ton as there are no restrictions or requirements for registration other than not flying in no go zones like airports, near buildings, built up areas and even near people is allowed but the machines have to be certified as under 250 grams flying weight, at the moment there is exemption for sub 250 gram even without certification but that will expire in about a year, right now there are no certified drones but there are some uncertified sub 250 gram, however when the rules fully kick in all those uncertified drones will become redundant so not many people are going to invest in them now

Yes Bob, I've practiced all my life

That NC750S is a work of art, lovely looking machine
