Poor old Mr Pinchy, what a sad end to be consumed by a Moose Molester
-
I know, problem was neither I or the Nurse I was working with knew it was going on, so had no reason to look up

Very.

I don't know there is any logic involved in anything that goes on there. I would have thought if you couldn't focus the last thing you should do is risk getting thumped especially if you have no skill to defend yourself. Not saying they were thinking that way they obviously weren't. Like I said initially soft twats who couldn't throw or land a punch and luckily for both of them their opponents was equally clueless. I have seen what happens when a drunk takes on someone who wasn't and could defend themselves. It doesn't last long.

I was out working all through it Friday Night and never saw a bloody thing.

I find it difficult to understand how these places are just abandoned like that. On this crowded little island they would be developed into something to rape money out of the populace quick smart.

Doesn't hurt that there is a Triumph and BSA dealer 20 miles up the road. But you are right lots of Brit and Merican stuff.

After talking to the owner I get the feeling it has never been UK registered. I think he may have been riding it illegally for the last 50 years. He didn't say so but he winked when I asked him about the NZ plate. Rugged Individualist

Met up with 3 mates at 4 Turnings garage this morning at 9:00am. Martin on his R80 with R100 engine and running gear. Chris on his Triumph Scrambler 900, Gary on his 1974 Triumph Bonny, Me and my Shadow on the Hornet. We set off on the A390 through Lostwithiel then on up the A38 and Liskeard by pass. Turned off and went inland to Callington then took the Gunnislake Road turning off to Kitt Hill and then Louis Cafe. Gary lead as his bike was the slowest and he openly admits he can't see much over 70 mph because of the vibes. God only knows why he takes the bloody thing. He has a Ducati Monster and while not as pretty it is a much more capable bike. Course Shadow moaned as we could go fast, traffic and Gary. Not that I ever push to hard but it was slow going. Got there around 9:40 and pretty quiet so we didn’t have a breakfast que. £14 for two sausage baps and two cans of fizz. Twas nice but felt spendy, maybe I am just tight JPS Norton Shadows dream bike WTF this is supposed to be I don’t know but made me smile. After breakfast we headed back to Callington and took the road down to Saltash then on to Carkeel and the back road to Looe. Mooched around Polperro then back to Plynt, Lostwithiel again St Blazey and home. Great day out, loads of bikes and traffic though. Suppose it is bound to happen this time of year. Trip stats Nice new Bullit Very old Sunbeam on a NZ plate. Apparently the owner bought it in NZ on a round the world sailing trip. Road it around NZ stripped and packed it away in his sailing boat and brought it back to Cornwall 50 years ago. Still riding it today. Interesting old chap.

2024 Triumph Rocket 3 Storm R and GT First Ride Review
Saul replied to Hugh Janus's topic in MOTORCYCLE REVIEWS
I am a bit conflicted about them, I think they look cool as hell in the flesh but they also remind me of a locomotive. I just can't imagine living with something that big, bit of adverse camber or gravel when you put your fit down. Imagine trying to paddle it backwards for any reason. Just to big and bloody heavy to my mind. -
I would be sad to see you go, I enjoy your content. I think what you post is thought provoking and entertaining. Doesn’t hurt giving Buckster the needle either both of your to and fro interactions are fascinating, to me anyway.

Moto Morini Launched Three New Models in the US
Saul replied to Seymour Asscrack's topic in MOTORCYCLE REVIEWS
To be completely objective they look pretty good in the flesh. I know that doesn't make them reliable or worth anything second hand but I think their day will come, and no I won't buy one. I remember Nathan the Postman is selling his X-Cape and struggling to do so or was in the last video I watched. He also said the X-Cape felt low on power. -
An identical one to mine but with half the garden sold last month for £336,000. But its just numbers everything down here is £200,000 plus. Just think of trying to raise that sort of mortgage. Just not going to happen unless you are pushing £40 to 50k a year and who the fuck earns that in rural Cornwall. Not many I would argue.
