B*ll*cks, have to go to a kids birthday party and I may be going for a ride with my step dad to box hill in the AM. Will see if I can get out of the party if this is definately going to happen?

Erm..... What colour means what?!

Red - not allowed out
Amber - your going out but she isnt happy about it
Green - allowed out
Silver - allowed out and allowed to frolic with the opposite sex
Gold - anything goes
Generally I seem to hover between red and amber. Green cards only arrive when she has plans to go out!

SOB's............
Going for it least 1 rideout per week, when i can't.
When i recover you will all stay inside no doubt :(
Red - not allowed out
Amber - your going out but she isnt happy about it
Green - allowed out
Silver - allowed out and allowed to frolic with the opposite sex
Gold - anything goes
Do silver and gold really exist? Don't they constitute singledom?
Is this a ride regardless of the weather or will there be backing out at the first sight of a slightly grey cloud :?:

Not in my relationship, but I do have a friend who is allowed to...

Looks like I am allowed out on Sunday. I am not bothered about weather and am happy to ride in all conditions, but you guys will have to go easy on me as I will probably be riding the hire bike and not my SV.
Jon
I should be up for this... is there a planned start time?

But but... hire bike means you don't have to worry about ragging it. That's what they are for. Rev limiter every gear every time. :lol:
What hire bike is it? Or do you not know yet?

Hire bike arrives today at 5.30 so will update you then. Indeed I will be doing my best to kill it, but as I am still fairly new to biking myself it is probably best to get a feel for her first.

Just got the hire bike and guess what...its a brand new SV650s K6 with 279 miles on the clock. Someone has blatently already run this thing raggid as it doesnt start up instantly like my bike, so I guess I will just have to give it a load of throttle this weekend!!!

Sounds more like it has been sat with no charge, hence low battery and not keen to start.
So more importantly, what colour is it and is it fully faired?

Would any of you have a problem with my Step dad joining us on his bandit? Not sure how we would meet up with him as he lives in Surrey but I thought I would check with you guys first. He is desperate to go for a long ride now he has recovered from the shooting!

Picking up a new SV then Tonyk?
Where you getting it from?

19-09-07, 05:36 PM
He lives in Walton-on-Thames. Have you got a route in mind? Could he meet us part way through?
StreetHawk
19-09-07, 06:03 PM
I did have a route in mind but we can change it to suit.. Could he meet us in Woking?
I (predictably) now can't make it.
I know this is going to be a big disappointment for you all, but you'll just have to put on a brave face and at least pretend it's as good if I was there. :wink:

Wokingham should be fine. I am wondering whether we should invite the Guildford guys as we could pick them up from Wokingham when we pick my dad up?
Can we name a time and location in Wokingham to meet? Anyone have any ideas?
could we still meet up at the shire horse and then go on to wokingham ?
fingers still crossed, hopefully this week from george white...

I think Nick suggested Woking... not Wokingham.. Never mind. Don't think I can make this one either, guys. Enjoy! I might be out Saturday sometime.

My bad, Woking would be even better. Just let me know when and where he should meet us.

ok i need to sign off.......

Hello sausage factory. although my track record is pretty naff when it comes to ride outs, I am thinking of turning up for this one. trying to persuade me Warthog to come along too, although he is skint. 10:00 at the Shire horses then.
Good to hear yer stepdad is not back on 2 wheels jon.

Yes I am considering it. I have the old dilemma of how to tell your gf you are going to ride to Brighton, when you have just told her you are too poor to drive to Birmingham.....
Also I have -£19 at the moment

Thats crap. Whenever I want to go on a ride or do something I just send my girlfriend to to Reading with my credit card :-dd.

ah but he has no cash for her to spend at the mo.
you let your missiz loose with your card. you must be a brave (or incredibly rich) man.

Thats why I said "crap" at the beginning - cause he cant do it.
In reference to my stupidity on the credit card thing - money is not and never will be an issue between my gf and I. If going out and blowing a load of cash on clothes and face creams make her happy, then I am happy cause she is. I am not territorial about my cash and despite having earned more than her during our relationship (that may change next year when she earns her full dentist salary) we have always pooled our money.
Overall, she lets me buy what I want, I let her buy what she wants and we dont make each other feel guilty about it. The reality is that we are both careful with our cash, and as a result we trust each other not to abuse the cards.
Despite all this - it is still nice to be told by your other half to go out on a shopping spree!
