just wanted to say - maybe not such a good idea make some to soon. looks like it is a long cold and white winter this year. hope off a nice warm spring then. he he. they say its snowing again and freezing. dont like going scating on 2 wheels. bike is tooo powerfull for ice on the roads. have a spinning backwheel in the wet anyway. ha ha. ( i mean not by driving off and wheele, more from the 2nd to 3rd or 3rd to th 4th gear while riding. )

I was watched doing it through the centre of town last tuesday...followed by my mate in his camper van who wouldn't creep above 10 miles an hour. However, I was also watched to be driving the van backwards on arboretum road, whilst standing on the seat and hanging ont he roof, steering with my foot and throwing snowballs at things....passenger included!
I went over to the car park two nights ago and therewere a load of "sooped up" boy racers. Some nice cars, some crap drifting, ran rings around the lot of them, literally!

;D i bet. they have not much space to go at the moment. but iam not interested in them boyracer cars. sorry. small cars, no engine power and loud exhausts. no tanx. i would do a loud exhaust on a 3 liter car, yes and maybe tune it up. but not on a 1 liter thingy box. show me a 30 tonne hgv truck i may be more interested in it. at least there is some steahl around and a engine in it.

thats why i stopped driving couple years back and went into office. but same as driving, transport management gone donw hills.
i didn like the 54 mph rules, and 40 mph on other roads. no no.
i grow up with minimum 85 mph on motorways, you been slower you got a fine for holding the traffic up. so this so named high speed over anything above 70 is just rubbish.
may peeps shloud learn to handle there vehicle and not crowling along the lanes. ha ha
