windy weather

[kitkat]

hope the weather is not too bad beside you all. I have been up all night as I cant sleep due to wind blowing down fences, blowing wheelie bins all over the place. I got up at 2 to selotape my letter box shut. My wheelie bin has left the country I think. just watching weather report and winds are 75mph in this area.

but my bike is still upright :)

Yep it's wild here too. Was planning on a wee ride over to Hein Gericke later, but doubt I'll attempt my first time on the bike since my knee op in this. I fink I'm going back to bed..........

It was "Attack Of The Wheelie Bins" this morning!:p

Ton of debris on the road, was wishing I had some knobbly tyres oan.

That's just the first day of the annual vigil for my back fence. This year's wrinkle is that the apple tree might take it out!

I will keep you all informed...

i got to witness a bit of a domino effect as 3 of me bikes toppled over each other. the rs and gz were ok but the vfr got a bit squished in the middle and needs a new tank. thankfully the sv was in the garage. was a good laugh out pickin them up at 2 this mornin' dodgin' flyin' wheely bins.

Yeah, I got up at 2am because i thought tiles were comming off the roof.

Didn't see any, something made a big noise though.

TIGER, you need to set up a tree cam.

As a quote I once hear "It's nothing without pictures" :thumleft:

Apparently there's a swarm of locusts forecast for tomorrow.

Ya know, on new year's day I rode home through crazy floods, laughing like an idiot, and on the 2nd the roads were bone dry and i got home thinking "This is the perfect omen for a good year's riding!". Then it started snowing :rolleyes:

We got up yesterday to a plastic garden table in the middle of the road that must have actually flown over someone's 6 foot fence! There was also a random Christmas Tree in next door's drive!! Oh, and the aftermath of the wheelie-bin massacre!

[DarrenSV650S]

The wheelie bin gods have been greatly angered and sought revenge......

For me it was 1 tile dislodged at the front of the house but still on roof and 1 tile off the back and through the decking :(

For my neighbour it was about 40ft of 6ft fencing lying horizontal on the outside footpath with every post snapped at the base

As for wheeliebins I was the only one in the street not to put it out till morning and was the only one not picking up their contents :D
