Cupid Stunt

Well, it had been a few years without a bike but I eventual decided to get riding again albeit a bit more sedated as I could never seem to act my age on road bikes and we all know how that ends, been there done that, don't want to spend another two months in a wheelchair So a scooter it was in the hopes of limiting my own twatish behaviour I was getting a bit nervous riding the scoot, loving it but it was a bit odd in it's road manners, low speed bends/corners in particular the bike would step out on the rear causing butt fluctuations and a need for clean underpants on occasion after a while (500 miles ish) I thought I'd best have a closer look to see what's happening, the rear tyre had plenty of it's tread, I'd got rid of the chicken strips nicely, I did my normal tyre pressure test with my thumbs and all was fine Still stepping out on roundabouts and bends, so I put a shout out on a scoot group on facefook and it was suggested the tyre pressure might be low, surely not I tested it the same way I always tested my dirt/trail bikes with my ultra reliable thumbs As it happens when I put a pressure gauge on it there was only 6.5psi in the rear and 24psi in the front, whooops, fucking twat, I'd been gunning that round big fast bends and ridden around 500 miles including all the way to Aberystwyth and back. Well what a difference now, I'm even more impressed with the scoot, frankly for the roads I ride there's no need for anything more, I don't do two up riding, I don't do motorways or dual carriageways or at least I avoid them as best I can and stick to smaller A and B roads It now sticks to the tarmac like shit to a blanket or in this case shit to my undercaks with a 6.5psi tyre pressure So the moral of the story is don't be a cunt, scoot tyres are much stubbier and thicker and thumbs don't work

Why on earth have people got in excess of 50/100/200mbps? Even full on Netflix with multiple users only requires around 8mbps, at 30mbps full movies download in minutes I can understand it if you're running your own servers at home for the World to use and need a great upload speed ??????

The broadband here is hopeless, with a max of 7mbps if you're lucky I've had to get a 4G router via the Three network which at least gives me usable results, I have no need for anything faster, it only takes minutes to download an entire movie, how much faster does anyone need?

Yep and here's a clip of one of the leading campaigners being interviewed.... They are all about chaos and disruption with malicious intent and funded from outside

Yes but it has no bearing on the facts and similarities, right down to the pigtails on miss Thunberg's head

You guys really ought to research into the real demands and origins of these fekwits and what they're actually campaigning for and how they are funded. They are tied to Extinction Rebelion, who's aims are not to help the environment but rather to bring down democracy and install communism, they are funded by a very well known and notorious socialist reform multi billionaire George Soros, yes the same guy who has funded Antifa and many other groups designed to bring about chaos and disruption not to mention Black Lives Matter Let's understand it, if they don't give a crap if your granny dies in an ambulance trying to get to hospital then they definitely don't give a crap about your granny getting cold. The MO of these groups is always the same, find a justifiable cause that some can sympathise with and use it for disruption, indoctrinating followers into other more insidious demands like defunding the police, closing down all prisons, dismantling democracy. Have you not noticed how these groups just spring up out of nowhere?, they were never there beforehand for years trying to make changes for the better, no, they suddenly appeared creating chaos Have you every looked into the definition of fascism? Try it and see how it applies to these groups It's just how Hitler's Third Reich got going

This was my camping set-up for festivals, took about 10 minutes to setup and pack down, had my own toilet and shower too This was on route to the Shrewsbury Folk Festival (A bit posh for my liking but I also went to the 80's tribute festival in Aberystwyth "The Big Tribute" the same weekend https://youtu.be/cMWxHEpodZ0

Fuck that at a festival Waking up at 4am with 10 pints trying to escape from my bladder in the dark

Some very full slop out buckets are needed Fekwits they are, brainwashed activists, fear allows them to become like this and those who are profiting by the $billions create and feed this fear

It's even lower, under the foot well, the engine is virtually level with the wheel axis too

Yep, mad aint it, but it doesn't feel heavy, just got to remember there's all that weight on those tiny wheels/tyres in the twisties

Nice run today out on the scoot, only 140 miles but all A and B roads, single track too no dual carriageways or motorways so it was 4 hour solid riding, Google maps reckoned 4hr 40min Was great roads over to Borth just north of Aberystwyth to pick up a new camera to replace the one I killed by leaving on my scooter seat DOH!, I came back a grand lighter Over Betws Mountain, into Ammanford via the A483 to Llandeilo, Tally road to Edwinsford then Lampeter, Llanrhystud, Aberystwyth and Borth Same route back except Llandeilo to Ammanford I went via Trap for much tighter single track Damn I need to adjust the suspension, it's rock solid and the road are shite, banking into turns is seriously worrying with the scoot bobbling around even though it's a scoot it weight 210kg Anyway, too much fun to stop for pics so bollocks, maybe next time PS what is it with "White Van men" and scooters, they all seem to want to race, maybe it's cos they cant stay with motorbikes they think a scooter is an easy target NOT, dumbasses

Germany just went socialist again Look what occurred last time that happened

No fuel shortage and no tanker driver shortage, just some fuckmuppets from a haulage association released a false report, the press jumped all over it and the public became complete fucking retards Don't care my scooter is full and I can get 75mpg

For longer distance dual sport riding I'd suggest a Pegaso Trail, relatively low seat, all day comfortable and capable off road

This was a link from an add that popped up on Facefook Personal care products for bikers - WTF? https://motorbikers.cc/?s=warrior&post_type=product&fbclid=IwAR1yg39T-oTu_L0ZLcr93eAL3UsqlpcRgzEA1rHk4426YJqHEcD_h_cxuY0

I very rarely go for the latest kit nowadays Pete, I wait anxiously for it to come out so the previous version drops like a brick in price Who on Earth needs 5.3k?, it's very rare that anyone watches videos in anything above HD and often just 720p as their watching on a phone/tablet For the latest kit you'll always pay what it's worth plus a premium for joining all the mugs who queue up waiting for it to come out

Racist Welsh bastards Can't believe they used to keep black people down the mines

You can add your own thoughts below Here's one that jumped into my head..... Do transgender folk cry whilst having a wank with a dick they wish they didn't have?

James wasn't there, he was at the magazine at that time though I took James out for Supermoto magazine when he got hold of a BMW Megamoto before they were launched, took them up over the blacks, around Llyn Brianne, Devils staircase, up to Elan Valley, then back down via Devil's Bridge, Tregaron and the Sennybridge ranges, 180 miles of supermoto terrain

One of my oldest trail videos, this is the rat run from Resolven through to the playground, apologies for the crap quality, this was long before the days of HD helmet cams and was recorded on a camcorder, recorded by Mark and edited by me

Here's a blast from the past January 2010 out testing the latest mid range thumpers for Trail Bike Magazine for their suitability as all rounders My bike is the black, red and white Sherco 4.5i
