She did . Brilliant advert for the way the game should be played.

It’s because you’re to old, take the hint before you fuck yourself up. I made it to 42 but am willing to admit I went on too long. Your mind may be in the game but Father Time has other plans. Not being a twat here, but rugby is not a forgiving sport when you get old and brittle.

True but Botts plays on the edge and that sort of thing is a risk. Wouldn't change a thing how she goes about it though. Her attitude reminds me of Marler. Botts is the best of 4 world class props IMHO. Morwenna Talling had a great game too, I know her family well, and knew her a little as a kid. Englands defence won that I reckon, fantastic and very entertaining game. Nice to have some sporting good news for a change.

Absolutely, great game

Good for you, now show us

Here you go Marcy a nice small Indian in just your style.

Riding a blue dildo doesn’t make you the arbiter of taste, pillow biter maybe

I like that the only comment you responded to was that your bike was overweight. You obviously accept the rest

Just cause you don’t share Bob’s interests or mine doesn’t mean there is anything wrong with them it’s your intolerance and your problem. You ride overweight slow unreliable barges that look more like something Liberace designed than an actual motorcycle and we don’t care or comment. You do you

I've had this running debate with one of my mates as I am a fan of the new Z650RS retro and he keeps telling me that the old Z650 is a better bike because it is a 4 and I don't agree. More desirable maybe but dynamically a better bike no way. The new bike has modern brakes tyres and suspension, more power and is lighter. Much better bike to live with plus it is not 40 or 50 years old. I do like old Z650's and think they are very cool but my glasses aren't that rose tinted.

Could well have been worn out, CB200's were roundly used and abused back in the day. Not really valued by anyone L platers saw them as a poor second choice and commuters used them as dirt cheap transport.

I just want something like I had back in the day for bimbling about. I had a spiffy red CB200 with a Polaris fairing which was, to be fair, dog shit slow compared to my mates 250's so it had to go. But I have always hankered after another for mooching about on, to ride the same roads that I used to. I thought I could have been on Ch1p's with that fairing given how rare faired bikes were back then. I actually really liked my CB200 as a bike and thought it was cool, which it was after getting off a Suzuki AP50. Nostalgia is a strong pull, I often find myself riding the same route and roads home that I used to when I was a teenager. I often do those routes on my CBF and though it's a stodgy old commuter in modern terms, but it feels like the best bike ever on those routes because it is in a different league to what I rode back then. My Dream bike then was a Suzuki GS550 like a couple of mates had, in direct comparison the CBF is worlds better IMHO.

Oh dear You are quite an eloquent drunk though

That my friend is a Polaris fairing. Recognise that brand by any chance.

Nostalgia is a strong pull, there was a time when that was an aspirational bike. Looked a sounded like a big bike when we had no hair in our chins.

Sound like the makings of a film.

We haven't had a lot of shitty weather yet, much easier to keep it clean in the summer

Like the light not sure how the photo looks.

Tell you what if this wasn't so far away I would have already bought it. https://ebay.us/m/RxkNYT

14 BHP is sort of self explanatory, just enjoyed having one back in the day and always wanted a green one, People spend thousands on FS1E's and they are 2.5 bhp, they don't buy them for the grunt.

Probably, 14 BHP or so, no rocket. But it is green.

Vert tempted by this. Retro look modernish reliability and performance. https://www.tradebikesdirect.co.uk/used/bikes/triumph/adventurer/900-1995-29k-retro-classic-bike-new-mot-serviced-900cc-triple-3432#email-vehicle

Best weather protection I had was my 1978 BMW R100RS, that bathtub fairing was excellent. To be fair my CBF600S with a touring screen isn't at all bad but the BMW was king with two bloody great cylinders keeping your feet warm and dry.
