This is probably one of my all time favourites. ??

I received this from MAG the other day :- PRESS RELEASE Recreational motorcycling in England permitted under new measures. This version: 2020-11-11 The Coalition of Motorcycling Organisations (COMO) has examined legislation and guidance for the new lockdown in England. If you are not required to self-isolate, the rules do permit riding alone or with one other individual. You are still subject to the social distancing rules and other measures. Many riders have been asking whether riding alone is allowed under the new lockdown rules. Government has clearly stated that riding as essential travel is allowed. We looked into rules on riding for leisure and mental well-being which are not so clear. We have studied both the legislation and the guidance and have concluded that the rules do permit riding for pleasure, alone or with a mate. You can ride for recreation on public roads so long as you are: • on your own • with one person from another household, or • with the people you live with (your household) or your support bubble Bikers congregating in groups is not allowed under the legislation and will draw unwanted attention, as will any reckless riding. Please use good judgement and avoid any action that will adversely affect the reputation of motorcycling. We will publish a revised version of the Covid-safe motorcycling guidelines once we understand the situation after the current lockdown period expires.

Oh deer!

There'll be a lot like us . Waiting.

From MAG "We have been asked if riding during the lockdown invalidates your insurance. The answer from the ABI (Association of British Insurers) is "Your cover will not be affected if you drive during the lockdown period. However, all motorists should follow Government advice and avoid non-essential travel." "

I remember that.

Was it the one where we did the North Wales ‘short cut?’ ?? With my post rally hangover speeds in the rain 30mph seems a bit high. ??

Exactly! I can be in North Wales and somehow my GPS will get my arrival time home pretty much spot on.

That's what I averaged around Norway. No point in going any faster. On the long stretches of unpaved (roadworks) in Finland I tried to keep it at about 40 as below 30 the bike was all over the place. It get's difficult to average anything over 50mph on Welsh roads without being a bit of a risk taker. There's too much traffic. When I went up to North Wales during the lockdown for some training, we averaged nearer 60mph as there wasn't much traffic.

Is farage a member here?

Takes one to know one. Immigrant.

Politics. Ban him.

Point of order. Who’s supposed to take the photos? I somehow doubt that @BusBoy managed to take a photo of his own arse from that far away. ?

I've been pretty much isolating anyway so shouldn't make much difference. I just need to buy 3,472 bog rolls and 6,231 Pot Noodles. Sorted.

Good to see that you're about Lyn. Was asking Dawn not so long ago if she'd heard from you. Hope all well.

Krypton Factor for the over sixties!

Wouldn’t be there long enough for that. Lunch! It’s a bit like Swansea.

As Sian Lloyd, the former ITV weather maid, once told some Ingurlisch upstart, “We shag em. You eat em!” QED

Fuckmine! ?

At least the woman just said that she didn’t know. The other tried to bluff his way out and had to backpedal later on Twitter. Ive had to reword this several times so that I don’t breach the politics rule! ?

Snap.

Very slick! Great.

I liked several but I voted for Fred’s.

Double checked the weights and they’re both 244kg wet. My last was 238kg.

I think that sympathy sits between shit and syphilis.
