Is that why the pictures you upload are so small?

Had the 500 mile service on the T100 done today. I know it's partly psychological but it felt so much smoother with fresh oil in it on the way home. S'pose they may have done a few other tweaks as well but it's usually just a quick look over, oil and filter and off you go. But then I did look up from the paper I was reading in the on site caff to see them set off road testing it so they were fairly thorough. Still loving it and don't regret chopping in the GSX-F at all.

If there are enough petrol stations to sustain my thirsty beast, and if the sun manages to shine for more than 45 minutes in between the rain clouds, sure! Why not!

Bibs glad you and the bike are both OK-ish and recoverable.
GWS those ribs can be painful.

27" here too. Love it
I run 2 19" monitors which I think is the better option if you have room and don't play a lot of action games.. I typically have Chrome on one screen and word or excel on the other. It only works if you have two video outputs on your computer.

I used to have 2 monitors until I got sky. Just got the one now. If I had a bigger desk I'd probably put it back because it does come in handy sometimes

This has got to be the sh*ttiest year I can remember weather wise. I feel so cheated this 'summer'.
I've been off for two weeks and had 1 dry day. Went out today and only managed 40 miles before it started p*ssing down again.
