My bad, I was in a 6x6 room with nothing but my books and computer for about 8 hours yesterday.

You guys should be out riding more. I did nearly 500 miles this weekend on backroads in Kent and Sussex, which trust me is no mean feat. And I managed to get to a bike shop to arrange a deal on an 06 CBR1000RR. To be fair the weather has been superb here in the UK. Saturday was 24/25C a round 75F and yesterday was 26/27C a bit more in F. Couldn't find the calculator to work out the conversion. Anyway some pictures attached to show some of the places my brother in law and I rode to. We had breakfast in Hastings at the seafront as well as a quick stroll at BeachyHead. As you can see there is not a cloud in the sky. And damn I just realised I didn't take any pictures of my new bike.:-(

Good to see someone got out! But only 500 miles? As stated above... some of these folks can put that many posts in, in one sitting.

Oh and next time dont let that ugly Zook block the VFR in a pic!


A toast to good weather!

6800 Pounds, that's around 13200 in USD!. It's only got 1500 miles on the clock though and they have chucked in 3 years free servicing, 4 hours advanced rider training, and some hemi handlebars that I was advised to get from someone on the forum.

Oh bugger, what was I thinking, taking the picture that way round I will take your advise next time I go out and I would rather do 500 miles in a day than 500 posts on the forum anytime.

Thats right 500 miles in a day... so your weekend totals should crack the 1k mark

Fair point. No excuses but I had to look after the kids as well. If I had done a 1000 miles the old missus would be none too pleased with me. As it was I had to get up at 5am in order to get that mileage in. I should do more than that when I go to Valencia in November for the last MotoGP race tho.

[slorider18]

[Atreyu]

I haven't heard of the car one either

[JeepinJeff]

I think he made the car one up.

[slorider18]

i think so too. i can't believe he would post false information. i've never heard of such a thing.

[Quick 26]

i thought there was a grand tourismo with cars

[slorider18]

gran turismo is with cars, tourist is with bikes, same company, different games. close. go back to bed now.
