Trouble is, that the Idle Banter section is now so full of crap, you can't see intelligent posts about subjects like this - which really are for Biking Issues!

Ian... as a mod can you go and remove that rediculous list of stickies in IB, so that we don't have to scroll half way down the forum to view new posts!

Oh dear, I seem to have deviated from Biking Issue, to Idle Rant, better move my post

I love that article... a picture of a BMW R1100 with "an emphasis on speed, power and the right looks" as the caption, and that brilliant photo of Charley Boorman looking like a zombie... Quality.

I am old (49) but not reborn. I never had any type of 2 wheel
powered vehicle nor any type of license for such a vehicle until 2
years ago. Don't know what is worse, to be reborn at 47 or to be
born at 47.

Somehow journalists writing on the subject don't acknowledge the
existence of my category of biker.
