Don't do it myself but when I see others doing stuff - popping wheelies/stoppies and so on, it always cheers me up no end, so long as they don't then go and lose control or bin it... then they just look daft. Maybe will do it one day but for now am too busy concentrating on road conditions, postioning, etc. to have spare capacity for any flare.

I love the full english but I have to admit the Full American we had in NY had that wow factor.

Bacon, Sausage, Egg, Pork Chop, Chicken, Chips and a Cuppa

Pork chop? CHICKEN? In a breakfast?... They're supper items..

Waste of space. :P

3 bacon, 2 sausage, 2 eggs, LOADS of fried mushrooms, beans, hash browns and bread'n'butter. *drools*

Something I've been introduced to lately tho, which I never thought I'd go for is steak (rare, which i grew up on in Canada) and eggs.... EGG?? With steak? You're kidding right?.... OH YEAH BABY.... Lush.

Thing is i have just wrecked a pair of toe slider's cos i keep grounding out on the roundabouts.....

am i just not sticking my knee out far enough ??

Since i've fitted my blueflame high level i can't stop making the bike growl and bang

I just got my knee down on Monday afternoon. I completely wore a hole through my black rains before I remembered that I don't have toe sliders. Needed new boots anyway.
The thing that made the difference for me was the advice given to me by Lee, get your **** right out of the seat, leg out as far as possible, lean in and then try to kiss the outside mirror.
Works a treat.
