Btw, have you guys seen anything about the trouble in Thailand over the news in the UK? It would have affected Crisis' journey plans for sure.

Yes.. well.. heard it in the background on the lunchtime news while I was on here, plus I'm writing another bike article, so I wasn't really paying attention

Everywhere has gone mad.

The 954RR is a powerful bike, but I'm sure you could control her...

Thanks for the vote of confidence, Twin. I wish I could be as confident in the Thai road users around me

One half of the government (PAD party) ended up getting the unions to close all the train stations, bus stations and airports in protest over the prime minister's (PPP party) proposed spending budget.

I'm confused at how using a campaign that's costing/losing the government millions of baht over three days is a valid protest, especially when one person has lost their life and 40-odd have been put in hospital. But then *T.I.T for you.

*This is Thailand

I think what you need is a monster truck!

Surffrog · 09-02-2008, 10:37 AM

Or a tank

Twincam · 09-02-2008, 11:09 AM

You have the right idea... SSB's and Fox's company may be able to help

Something like a challenger... but with monster truck sized tracks, paint it blue and call it BIGfUCT

Twincam · 09-02-2008, 4:13 PM

The name is catchy. I'm thinking of putting my name down as I seem to have trouble parking in London

Sideshow bob · 09-02-2008, 4:16 PM

Your problem will be solved with BIGfUCT....

No parking spaces...
make your own... flatten a building or two

Twincam · 09-02-2008, 4:36 PM

OOOO. I want one for christmas. Whats the 0-60 on one of those?

Sideshow bob · 09-02-2008, 4:46 PM

errr... now it falls down, think its top speed only 56!!

mind you.... you can drive straight to were you wanna go... just drive through everything

Twincam · 09-02-2008, 4:57 PM

Ah. Well. I'm still interested. I'm thinking if ever the missus wanted to re-decorate the kitchen, I could just drive into it. The of course start from scratch...

You mean, as the crow-flies. Well, it might not be a racer but as a commuter for London I think it would be great. And it would make a very interesting change to find more parking spots with each new day rather than less

Twincam · 09-03-2008, 3:53 AM

Very true Surf, I wonder if I will have to pay the congestion charge?

That would depend on a couple of things:

1. Whether your tank was armed;

2. If said tank was armed, whether they asked you nicely or demanded it; and

3. What mood you were in

So I suppose it would be up to you

Twincam · 09-03-2008, 10:49 AM

Yippie.

I think #3 would play a big part in owning the BIGfUCT.

Surffrog · 09-04-2008, 4:08 AM

I'm forced to agree with you, Twin. Now please point the barrel of the tank's gun at someone else

....NOT ME!

Surffrog · 09-04-2008, 5:02 AM

Yeah. Don't point it at SSB. His posts make me laugh... And don't forget, Twin, SSB doesn't like foxes either

Twincam · 09-04-2008, 4:24 PM

Haha. There are a few people on my hit list, but don't worry - Both SSB, Loopy, Macca, yourself e.g. Surf and Mr M&Ms are safe - well for now

Ahhhhh just joking with you... or am I?

Hows the weather over there? We have rain forecast non stop for the next few days/weeks/years

Let's just say that I'm actually pleased I'm in a cage at the mo. For an island, Phuket's doing a great impersonation of a submarine.
