It's that time of the month again. Time to get your pictures up.
-
I know he his a fanny but been leant both these bikes Bimota 1000 and Triumph 1200 for two weeks. Seems to be winning at life to me.

Weather is stunning off out with the lads today. Was going to take the Sprint but the Hornet won the popularity contest.
-
Yep I have been going there since I started riding. It’s never changed. They are a cash only operation and I love that . £30 for MoT’s. It used to be a Suzuki main dealer back in the day.

Out and about on both the Sprint and my CBF this morning. I went out on the Triumph first to book an MoT as it runs out next week. The garage I normally use it 3 miles away I got back home on the Triumph after a lovely little bimble but completely forgot to book the MoT So went back on the CBF to give it a run to actually book the MoT Still got a little distracted It was certainly a contrast riding the bikes back to back. The CBF felt like a toy after the Triumph, so easy to use and friendly, all revvie and light controls. The Triumph on the other hand is all big hairy chested drama next to the Honda . Really enjoy both to be honest

I didn't they were already blacked out.

Out for a shake down run on the Sprint this morning. Behaved very well after all my messing around with it. New heavy duty clutch springs don’t feel to bad in Use. You can feel the extra effort but not bad. Absolute joy to ride so far, no mistaking you are piloting a big heavy beast of a bike but enjoying the contrast to my Hondas.

OMG what a useless individual he is. Has to be seen to be believed.

Not much biking for me, family meal on Saturday. Singing in our first gig of the year on Sunday. Currently getting the music books sorted for the new set lists. Bloody hate admin, hopefully not much will change until after going on tour to Wales.

All joking aside I do like the look of the Leoncino 500 Trail that Beneli do, little 360 degree crank 500 twin in a trail frame. Potential to be a fun bit of kit for local stuff where I live. Seen really nice low mileage ones for around £2K in the UK. Lot of fun for that sort of money.

Thinking about it I may have to sell Shadows bike at some point, mind you if I do I might just trade it in against something bigger, but I don't have to deal with that until October when her insurance runs out.

I hate selling vehicles because of the messers. I don't sell much at all to be honest I tend to run my cars until they die. Last two cars I got rid of, one went to auction, the other my van that eat it's gearbox went to a mechanic mate who fixed it for his wife's cleaning business. Backalong I sold a good Honda CRV to a chancer who tried to extort money from me because of so called problems with the car that I supposedly didn't declare. Absolute bollocks, he even tried to threaten me. I just told him where to go but it's hassle you don't need. Also I sold my Chinky 125 to another goon who brought it back because it wasn't running right, because he didn't know how to turn the choke off, I reached under and did just that and it ran perfectly. Absolute bell end. I just can't be arsed with dealing with them anymore. I think it's my age I just can't be aresed with the F'wits anymore. Luckily my spotless 24 year old BMW 3 series has still only done 94,000 and is running and driving exactly as it should. If I get rid of it, prolly take it to the auction, isn't worth anything anyway.

Yeah as long as you got what you wanted with minimum hassle it strikes me as a win Mate

Congratulations @Skippy Great Photo.

I have updated the picture but can’t change the Poll. Doesn’t seem to be holding you back any

Out for a coffee with some mates this morning then popped down to look at the river. Best time of year, nobody around

After cleaning the CBF I decided to go out for a bimble and ended up doing 100 miles. Headed over to Bodmin then on to follow the North Coast Road West. Bloody windy but not cold. I had my leather and summer gloves on and was plenty comfy. Heated grips on of course. A couple of miles from home I realised I hadn’t taken a single photo, in fact I don’t think I even put a foot down so I stopped and did Lovely chilled out ride on the CBF that is a joy to be on.

I have several times, especially when I was younger. As teanagers we all used to hang at Polmear Cafe. One wet day I had to go, in my dads work gear yellow leggings and donkey jacket. I had a Suzuki TS185, I jumped up high to kickstart it in true moto crosser fashion, as we all did for no reason back then, only for my foot to slip off the kickstart and it to shoot up the inside of my nanaman leggings and stop me putting my foot down as I slowing fell over to the right with momentum. Of course all my mates were watching and cheered. Bastards. By the time I got out from under the bike one twat had written 6.0 on two sheets of A4 in Olympic gymnastic style and was holding it up to the window. Of course the piss was takenmfor weeks after

February Poll Ends 28th February at 23:59. If I am still doing BOTM in March I will start the submission thread on the 23rd of March and then start the vote on the 29th to end on the 31st @23:59. Wasn't able to be that organised this month as it was all a bit short notice but this will be the pattern from now on. Take note and get snapping
