valleyboy 09-11-06 06:57 PM

I'll probably be about 1000 sheep road at somepoint.. if you see a green bike going like the clappers... it aint me... gotta spend my birthday doing something.. may as well be surrounded by 1000 sheep ;)


I aint gone yet.. though my departure is soon, preferably with front wheel in the air...

the white rabbit 09-11-06 07:11 PM

Where are you going? What have I missed?

Ohh.. forot to say.. the good news about 1000 sheep is..... the sheep are ALL gone.... clear roads.. though VERY cold up that part of the Beacons at this time of year...



I also think I have an inkling of whats wrong with my bike as well.... the last oil change I did was semi-synthetic... every other oil change Ive used has been fully synthetic.... I put some additive stuff in the oil yesterday thats supposed to unclogg the valves etc and stop them making a noise (didnt work! lol) buuuuuuttttttttttt...... the bikes moving around a bit more free than usual.. to the point I almost went into the back of a van as I was expecting the engine braking to slow me down quicker :oops:

though now Ive ordered £80 worth of stuff for replacing the valves (oil seals and gasket), not including £30 for a valve spring compressor... so the engines coming out by the end of the month regardess... :lol:

cant be as chilly as when I went up there in January/February earlier in the year.... average of -2 C that day... waterfalls by the burger van all frozen... sad thing is, bikes make a bit more power when the air is colder... pitty you cant use it due to crappy roads.. :lol:

Yup, but the view is clearer and shadows longer so might take some snaps. Will have to be a tad more careful of the right grip though

I have posted my resignation to the site.... though tempted to just take a month or two off instead... though I will enforce it this time by pain of death...

as soon as I felt like crap, and posted I was buggering off.. things picked up a tad... :lol: Ive decided its simply not worth winding myself up for anymore, however much it hurts.

though I have decided that there is a possibility of me having a life outside of the internet... even though its taken me two years to figure out that one... and plenty of ill feelings to boot :lol: and it may be a crappy life.. though its something other than biking or drinking.. and may involve working 7 days a week.. though extra funds would be available for mode of transport... :lol:

hehehe, Im sure some of the lads on here will vouch about when I took them Llandovery way.. the twistiest parts of the day were rather hair raising, as the sun was so low, it was getting in peoples eyes... I had foreseen this, and made use of my black visor... hence scooting off into the distance and waiting at the top of the black mountains.. ahhh.. that day should be remembered by Stretchie especialy... he got ermm caught testing the speed limits on his bike much earlier that day... :lol:

valleyboy 09-11-06 07:45 PM

I may work saturday morning.. not sure yet.... I havent got a clue as to what to do on the weekend... rather work than sit at home bored... my brother suggested playing rugby.. but after seeing his latest injury.. Id rather not :shock: plus Im not as nimble as I use to be... :lol:

Sorry for not posting earlier, my boilers gone bang, no hot water or heating, still waiting for the gas man to come round to look at it (hopefully) or it'll be pots n kettles at dawn :cry:

Oh and it looks very dark grey in the sky at the moment, looks like rain.

Beenz 11-11-06 05:38 PM

Boilers busted, heat exchanger is shot. Someone is popping over on Wednesday to 'try' and sort it. No heating or hot water. Where are those pans :(

Err... oddly yes, they fitted a water scale reducer thing for a few hundred quid to err.... prevent heat exchanger failure.. Oh well, been over the supermarket to get some big plastic jugs (ooerr missus) so I can heat water in the microwave as well as the kettle, and hob. Time for a beer. Oh and had to go out and buy an electric heater, to try and stop the pipes freezing.... sweet. :?

What a week, got hit by a car on Thursday, (no damage to the bike fortunately), expensive digital SLR died and now this. Maybe I should stay in doors tomorrow.

valleyboy 11-11-06 10:42 PM

Well, at least no hangovers for me tomorrow... stayed at home instead... 4th take away meal in 7 days... :lol: gotta take 20 L worth of used oil up the tip tomorrow... as its starting to take up room in the garage :lol: plus operation get the mini moto working may start tomorrow at some point.. as well as taking its big brother for a spin...
