Will anyone be arriving this Friday or will the threat of a little ice and snow mean a no show again :roll: :roll: :roll:

I'll be there again regardless :thumbsup:

You'll notice that I have added a "wimps" get out of jail section for those that couldn't make it last week :wink:

You do know it's Monday, don't you Ape? Anyway I'm getting bored with Soho, it's full of weirdos that do nothing but talk about motorcycles. After all, there are other subjects, like cleaning for instance... :lol:

I'll be there (though I admit I've said that before). Really, I'll try.

Eh Monday??? It is :?: :?: :?: So Greg is going to give us a master class in cleaning motorcycles, well seeing as your's will be spotless anyway (goes without saying) I guess you'll have to use mine as the demo bike. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: I'll make sure its exceptionally dirty for you so you can show how easy it is even when looking like its just been dragged out of the local duck pond. :wink: :lol:

yeah right,

busted spine= professional opinion, might walk again = 16 weeks back to riding
crushed foot (all bones broken) = professional opinion, might loose foot = 8 weeks back to riding.

dislocated thumb = professional opinion, 48hrs immobile and a week light use = riding two days later.

Just as well I never listened to what they say :wink:

Positive Mental Attitude, works wonders.l

I'm sure if you ask nicely some one would pillion you in to Soho for the evening :?:

Cheers Mark.

Whilst you're light-heartedly talking about the very serious subject of cleaning and polishing, if any one of my very dear friends would like to buy me an early Xmas prezzie then it may be purchased from here:

https://www.swissol.com/E/GB/Produkte_Lack3.htm

Naturally I would prefer the "Divine" but will gladly accept the "Mystery" wax should you feel in a generous mood. Realizing what a jolly good bunch you all are I know I won't have to wait long. Will I? :wink:

Add too add.

11 broken ribs + pelvis broken into multiple pieces = professional opinion, lenghty stay in hospital and months of rehab before can walk again = ten days in hospital and riding again after 4 months. Totally agree with Mark. PMA is the best healer there is.

I voted for the wussy dependent on weather answer.
Will try and make it, though, since I haven't been for a month or so.

Hi guys - I'll probably pitch up on the back of the Africa at around 10 pm. The SV hasn't left the garage for weeks now. Although looking weather-wise, Sunday looks good for a ride out and my baby, I am sure, is feeling neglected.

Hopefully see some of you on Friday.

It's snowing like fook as I am getting ready to go to work. BUT I'LL STILL BE THERE hope these are not famous last words

Mr Toad
04-03-05, 08:23 AM
yep, snowing heavily in central London at the mo, but doesn't look like it will settle (famous last words)

I could do with the loan of a knee tonight to help straighten my radiator :shock:
Jonboy has already volunteered to scrape the remains of the pedestrian off it :twisted:

I'd be extremely wary of trying to straighten a rad. They're like brake levers, they only bend once.

Mr Toad
04-03-05, 09:02 AM
it's not actually bent, just the 'hangers' or whatever they're called that are bolted to the frame - it's been shifted sideways by an inch or so, just needs pushing back, but I can't quite manage on my own - need to hold & push at the same time :roll:

You sure about that? I've bent my rad several times :oops:

Can anybody supply a brake pedal for me tonight? Anybody hapen to have spare black bits for the R&Gs?

Ok, its snowing and settling here now :shock:

04-03-05, 09:12 AM
Ok, its snowing and settling here now :shock:

where's here :?:

Mrs Toad reports several inches of snow in Sutton, and Hyde Park now has a good covering . . .

for once where I live it was sunny when I left.... snows moved north as met office predicted (see the idle banter current weather warning thread)

but since its moved to south london may still have issue of going home tonight so unless it turns to rain as predicted Im getting an early train to Ashford before the whole network collapses again.... :shock: :roll:

Its settling on the roads/pavements by London Bridge so please take care if anyones out and about...

It started snowing about 10 minutes after I starting driving to work and I'm now sitting in the office in the Docklands watching the snow mount up outside, where it isn't gritted.

*makes a huge snowball, aims at Mr Toad and throws* :twisted:

It's stopped snowing here now (After i rode through it!)

I may well be there, depending on if there is a blizzard here at 5pm or not.

Mr Toad
04-03-05, 11:22 AM

Jonboy - I'm still carrying your DVD's from last week

04-03-05, 12:44 PM

04-03-05, 01:04 PM
I'll give it go :)
Hopefully I'll be following the warm front of snow turning to rain!
I'll try this "approach" solo from runway "West"
Any markers for distinguishing Dean Street from the blur of road/lights/pedestrians?

hmmm tempted to go home and pick up the bike then :lol: but if I do I wont be bothered to come all the way back as I suspect....

I'll be there - If you're coming Lyn you can help me sort out my radiator :cry: - there could be chocolate in it for you :D cheers

mmmmm what can I do for your radiator? But then whatever it is I'll try... after all I'll practically do anything for chocolate :lol:
