Got the bike out for the first time this year. Battery turned the engine over once but, seeing as i had forgotten to engage the manual choke, it wasn't enough to blow the cobwebs out and then the battery was totally dead. After an internet search i found where the battery is situated and how to remove it, so got it out and recharged it (only took about an hour or so to fully charge from zilch). New tax disc in...decided i will get a new tax-disc holder. Pumped-up the front and back tyres (42psi in both). Donned my rather sexy black leathers and carbon fibre helmet and kevlar coated gloves and set off. Wow!! what an afternoon's ride. I'd forgotten just how crazy the power is and how much alive it/the ride, makes me feel. Best regards from a very happy icey with big smiles and rather shaky hands with adrenaline still pumping through my veins... .. :grouphug:

Hang on,

Well it's a bit of a p*ss take about various things...like a snapshot of the last few months as a keepsake.

If you didn't know, I got attacked by an Owl on an open farm (dont ask) which royally fecked my back; which then led me to not think things through resulting in a jack/cill interface

Oh and I bought a white 107 which is fondly known as Snowy (and it's very slow)

God knows how she does these things, but I love her for it :)

Got a nice framed pic and card, no doubt whoever sent the proof made it small intentionally ;)

Glol...how cleaver is that!!..Good one debs.


Sorry to hear about your back jules. You're not having much luck with that back of yours are you, i guess, due to the past, it's always going to be a weak spot now (was it a snowy owl by any chance?).

Glad you're alive and kicking though jules and with that diamond of a lass on your arm, i'm sure that there'll be many more happy times to come.

Posted Image No, i guess not. I suppose it's a matter of pain management and keeping abreast of any new break throughs in treatments.

You know i'm always sending my best wishes and hopes.

Just got a vx/speedster hybrid t-shirt too :)


Posted Image Nice one. I'll expect to see it being worn in the photographs of your next attended meet then Posted Image

Got the bike out for the first time this year.


What a coincidence. I had a puncture at work in September last year. I took the wheels off and by the time I'd got new tyres it was

1) cold.

2) I couldn't find the key.

Last month building services contacted me and asked if I'd lost a key to a bike. They also said it had to be removed by the end of April. So this morning I put the wheels back on and rode it away. Started first time, although I had charged it up.

Got sick of it looking like this over winter.

I have been riding my other bikes though.

What bike have you got Icey?

Maybe there should be a 'bikers corner'.
