Good weather to be out

Free treat from Costa for my birthday . Down at RCHT waiting for my brother in law having laser eye surgery. Got there at mid day went home at 18:30. Definitely a day of hurry up and wait.

Looking forward to your road train pic

I’ll pick one of these Lundy Skip Doctors Dartmoor

Right that time of the month again. If you have been out riding get your bike pics up. No AI slop please. Must be a bike you own and the photo must have been taken during September 2026. Needs to be a landscape photo to fit the cover page of the website. Can’t think of any more rules but could make some up. Vote will start on the 27th and end midnight on the 30th.

I had a great weekend on rugby tour in Cork in 1995. It was fantastic back then, I would love to go back.

I must admit to being a bit competitive with my mate who has bought a newer bike in the same colour, so I have been cleaning it up a fair bit to look better than his. Childish I know but it keeps me entertained. Can you get a rebuild kit for Mandis slave? I did for my old Triumph and it worked a treat.

Out mooching about on old faithful. Up Liskeard for a coffee at Checkered Flag, who are moving apparently, then a chemist run for my older daughter. Sometimes 50 miles solo is just what you need

Spent the morning sorting Shadows bike. New JT chain and sprockets and front brake pads. Took longer cleaning everything than actually fitting the parts. Her response was thanks Dad can you lend me £120 to fix my phone. It never ends . Also noticed she has hit 18,000 miles in 2 years. She is talking about taking her A2 in November but we shall see.

Off down west to sing in this later. My group is the Chainers

I got enough monkeys in my circus already thanks

My mate Martyn loves his V85TT. It's his go to bike when we go out for our group rides and he has 4 other bikes to choose from. Harley SlideHideGlide thing, New Kawasaki Z900RS, Siebenrock 1000cc converted R80 and a K75s. With an exception I think he has pretty good taste in bikes. Martyn was looking at a Mandello before he got the Kawasaki. We have been taking the piss out of Steve given that he doesn't seem to want to think for himself when it comes to bike choice. Copying me with the CBF600 and Martyn with the Guzzi. Also on Steve's shortlist was a Triumph 900 Scrambler like Andy and a CB750 Hornet like mine. Suppose there is sense to Steve's thinking he has bought bikes that have shown themselves to be reliable and fit for our groups type of riding but even so there are so many good interesting bikes out there to choose from. There were several really nice options in the Kawasaki showroom in his price range. His money and his decision I suppose. I liked the Gold R1250RS in the showroom.

Rode down to Lanner this morning with my mate Steve who obviously has money burning a hole in his pocket. He only bought his CBF about three weeks ago, last Friday he impulse bought a Guzzi V85 TT. Very nice it is to. Done 9,000 miles. Some nice bikes out the back. Also loads of nice stuff in the show room. Pricing wasn’t bad either. Especially liked this new all black Z900RS. Home made drain cover made me smile. On the way home popped into Dameralls for a cup of tea as we were riding past. Did about 90 miles bimbling about. Not a bad way to spend a Tuesday

Off down to Lanner Kawasaki (Cornwall Kawasaki Centre) in a minute, with my demented mate Steve. Has his eye on a Guzzi V85TT down there. Pictures later I expect.

Congratulations @Nute

It's that happy time again when we chose our favourite bike of the month picture. Six entries this month so a bit more enthusiasm from you all. No entry from our most prolific winner but it is completely understandable given that significant areas of his country are unbearably hot. Vote closes @23:59 31/8/2026. @Saul CB750 Hornet at Moto Velo @alfalfa BMW R18 in the Redwoods @Marcel Indian Challenger in the Needles @Buckster Harley Davidson Roadtrain in Suburbia @Nute BMW K100 Frankenbike in the field @Renegade Kawasaki ZR7S. In the Garden

See told you he was a serial killer. 6 to 7 victims

There are a couple of MV's that frequent the bike nights around here and they both sound rough as rats which apparently is normal for them. I wouldn't ride anything that sounded like that same with the Ducs and their dry clutches, I am sure that are wonderful bikes on the move but I just couldn't bear that clattering.

Up to you, surprise us.

It's that time of the month again. Time to get you pictures up for August BOTM. The Vote will start on the 29th and end on the 31st Remember it must be a bike you currently own and no Photoshop or AI slop please.
