Camping, drinking, eating, riding , farting. Not necessarily in that order

That was the point I was trying to make @Pedro Most people here would use a tyre shop rather than go to a motorcycle dealer. Motorcycle shops here are generally not interested in fitting tyres. I fit my own but in the past when I have used a tyre shop I generally take the wheel off myself and then let them fit the tyre/tube.

So when you need new tyres you take your bike to a Motorcycle dealer/repair shop ?

Cheer, you miserable fecker Fred

I'm glad you confessed first , I did as well. They were ridiculously easy to nick

Yeah, we were only 19 at the time. We didn't even measure anything before trying it , but like you say you're better off tuning the Mini engine .

Years ago we tried to fit the 1800 from a Land Crab into a Mini, it didn't go too well

What @Pedro and @yen_powell said about temperatures Modern tubes have a lot of butyl , much more than the natural rubber tubes we used to use years ago. How old are your tubes , are they the o/e tubes that came with the bike or has a previous owner replaced them with cheap shite ? As @Buckster said, buy the best tubes you can. I nearly always try to use Michelin tubes (personal choice) as they work well for me .

Pissing down here today, it's definitely going to get colder this weekend as I'm going camping on the bike

Nice one Pedro, I hope you deal with your emotions ok . It could be a roller coaster ride one way or another . I'm looking forward to some photos of the mighty GS in exotic locations already

I presume for maintenance, the M4 (Prince of Wales) bridge was open but that would have made it a longer journey and shitty roads.

No ride report from me today as first of all the Severn Bridge was closed then I diverted up onto the Cotswolds and there was bloody fog everywhere

Those sort of roads are what I actively seek out, I'd be all over that sort of shit. Those climbs up to the Sierra Nevada that I watched this week on the Vuelta Espana were awesome

One of the greatest bass lines in a pop song ever

I really, really did nearly spit my beer out then............

Great minds

Gay spunk by the looks of things

Nice one Pedro, weather looks stunning.

@Buckster could you here the guns being fired at Edinburgh Castle from where you are ?

I just watched the proclamation of the accession ceremony, Britain at it's finest in my opinion. God save the King .

I’ll take one of everything please Pedro, my mouth is salivating right now. How soon can you get here

Lovely Michelle, beautiful photos again. I hope you find that special spot for your mom to rest .

Naked ?
