Weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What is it with the weather in this country????????????
Yesterday at work I was sweating my knadgers off, it was hot n sunny and one advantage of being is that I get to play outside - the only down side was the stab vest (had 2 have a shower before I left work). I have a loverly little lie in today, get up n sit around drinking tea then just as I'm about to get pointy out for some serious laying down of rubber on tarmac the heavens open. My only consolation is that while typing this windows media player is on in the background - thank god for Ian Dury and his Block Heads, now if only I can get my hands on some of that Sex n Drugs n Rock n Roll he keeps on singing about. |

Re: Weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know what you mean. Went riding on thursday and every time i stopped the sun came out and as soon as i went on the bike again it poured. I had a bit of a dicy wheelspin at 60 mph going over a bridge hump which wouldn't have happened if it was nice and dry. What the hell its all good

Re: Weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Weather is crap today. There was a spell where it wasn't raining for aI cleaned the bike on the drive and then fetled in the garage for 3hours or so with it.
Now the sun has come out and it's warm but I guess the roads will be greasy . Grr. |

Re: Weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fudge it - its an opportunity to get out onto normally more busy roads without having to bother about other people spoiling the fun.
OK, so the back might step out a couple of times, but its all a learning experience |
