Don't you dare! Talking bikes for a hour may just save my sanity, pre-Noddy!

She knows that one may be happening, I told her I could be going a couple of weeks ago and I'm going to the theatre on Friday afternoon to see this, so she bloody well owes me one!

Whether or not I'm going to be a Hardy biker will depend on what the weather forecast is saying tomorrow/Friday morning (so not Hardy at all then). If it's still looking like this I'll be going nowhere near a mountain pass. (in case it's changed by the time you click the link, it says -3 overnight and 3 during the day, with snow for both Saturday and Sunday).

I do that kind of thing quite regularly, so she'd think I was joking, then have a paddy fit the night before and say I had never told her. There are advantages and disadvantages to winding your wife up all the time. I've often told her that if I wanted to have an affair, I'd be safe 'cos just tell her the truth and she wouldn't believe me - "Where did you go today?", "To a hotel with one of the girls from work!", "Yeah, yeah, Romeo, where did you go today?"

Ah, now as Mr Tiger55 will tell you, whose lovely wife is also a biker and org member, enjoy it now whilst you can! If you guys ever have kids your weekend riding time will fall to half of what the likes of me and Ed get. You can't take a baby on a bike, so whereas I just have to find time to ride, you guys will have to find time, and then take it in turns to babysit! Even if you agree to spend every Sunday apart, you'll only be riding every other Sunday when it's not your turn to babysit!
