there is some around the formby area

Are they leaning on a lampost til a certain little lady comes by?

Popped into Martyn's Motorcycles, Mountain Ash as I was passing through today, nice to see Martyn back in business, he's got a cafe there too now. 
That KZ900 is as new and it hasn't even been restored, I think it must have been Pete's

183 miles each way, plus riding around whilst there, shitty tiny fuel tank meant having to fill up on the way.

Not one photo, it's just for anyone who thinks I don't ride LOL

On the way there it was 40mph gusts and shit loads of rain with oncoming headlights blinding me in the dark due to rain on and in my visor, fekin hate that.

Clearer but colder coming back, I haven't been arsed to rig up power for my heated gear, not too cold though, only down to 8 deg C

Here's a random pick of a scooter cos the dirt on mine would give Pete a heart attack

I have a Gerbing heater under jacket thing which actually works pretty well. Keeps body and arms nice and warm although as with any heated kit plugging it in and remembering it’s connected when you get off is a pain in the arse. The only drawback is the size/ volume of the controller and all the cabling and crap that goes with it and having to try to cram it all in a pocket. 

Should have bought Warmnsafe kit, only one cable from the bike to the gear and a wireless controller the size of a matchbox on your dash

Get Warmnsafe from the USA, best kit available right now, any owner will tell you and many of them are ex Keis users

Keis was originally manufactured by a Taiwan guy running a business called Adventureheat, when I met him in Cologne it was vlear they weren't bikers, having a control on both left and right glove as well as visor wipes on both, Keis stuff was just rebranded, they've improved over the years but still not as good or reliable as Warmnsafe

Blowing my trumpet, nobody in the UK knows more about heated gear than me

First retailer of Gerbing gear in the UK, I've used and retailed Gerbing, Biketek, EXO2 and Warmnsafe (dont touch Motolegends with a bargepole), advised on production and pricing of EXO2 and Biketek.

20 plus years using, testing and retailing

Every time you got on a bike there were hairy moments Terry!

I'll never forgot the close call you had with those peacocks when you were on the Caponord. 

Can you believe that's nearly 20 years ago now!

Down the Mumbles Terry?

Yes mate, Bracelet Bay

This is socialism for you

The Welsh assembly government decided to change the default road speed limit nationally from 30mph to 20mph.
Even a left wing media outlet Wales Online admits that their study shows that the numbers against it are overwhelming with 8,770 people saying no to it and a mere 825 saying yes, not that any votes or public opinion counts in a socialist run country.
If anyone wonders why it's not a good idea then drive to work today without exceeding 20mph

This new law only affects roads which are currently 30mph but this is where most cars drive, in towns and cities, drivers will getting overtaken by cyclists, it's totally bonkers.

I wonder how many of these there actually are  ?  I saw one parked in a field in France last week

 

It's a mystery Bob

First one of these I've seen since I was knee high to a grasshopper

The Red Squirrel was virtually extinct in England and Wales but in certain areas conservationists are getting them re established.

Great shots Terry.....and the Railway Inn is in Killay. I can remember the trains going through there up to 1964.

Then around 1975 I went a fair way up the old track path on an XL125. Wanted to get to the tunnel at the Railway Inn......but it got too difficult halfway up. Then they made it into a country walk sometime in the 80's.

And are those other pics in Blackpill?

Yes, sorry Pete, KIllay not Sketty and yes the other pics are in Blackpill

Took a walk with my daughter and grand children today from the Railway Inn, Sketty along the Clyne River and down to Blackpill Lido

Oh an do you remember little Ashton, my son?, here he is now

The long way back from Pontyclun

I thought that you were out of the EU.

Fuck me, some people are dumb, yes we're out of the EU but we are still in Europe, we can't change that unless we all head to the beaches, all 75 million of us with oars and start paddling Britain further out into the Atlantic Ocean
