The plan was simple enough - Bank holiday weekend, a few of us scoot up to Scotland, have a run over the pass to Applecross, eat then come home. What could possibly go wrong, best laid plans & all that...... Keith (1050 Sprint) & I would meet Kev (929 'Blade) at Red Roosters, Penrith at 2.30...

In an effort to improve my bike fitness for my Wales trip I'd been going to the gym and rather successful it was too as I have no aches and pains after two full days "up on the pegs" The result of this was while I was nowhere near a fit as some of you here I could at least do a couple of miles...

The Biker test.. Midnight bugs taste best. Saddlebags can never hold everything you want, but they CAN holdeverything you need. NEVER argue with a woman holding a torque wrench. Never try to race an old Geezer, he may have one more gear than you. Home is where your bike sits still long...

After trying to walk in London in the rain yesterday I propose a new legislative programme: Nobody be allowed an umbrella without first taking a theory and practical test. All newly qualified umbrella users to have the size of their umbrella restricted for the first two years. Anyone accused...

Today has a special place in my heart being an ex Soldier. It brings home lots of memories, many good and some bad. Today is a day to remember all our lost Brothers and Sisters on the Battlefield and in the streets of places near to home like Northern Ireland and far away like Stanley...

Greetings everyone. As per the title, i've been thinking of replacing my tires for a while now. Since it's summer the grip is good enough, plus i don't ride very fast or aggressively anyway. However, now that i got used to the bike, when i test my brakes on an empty piece of road and try to push...

“Wot you doin” “Nothin! Wot you doin” “Run out tomorrow?” “OK. Where & when? And so it came to pass that LWR and meself set out for a Spring Bimble along the northen coast of the North-East of Scotland! We met at a local superish store located in the middle of nowhere, cos it was sort of in...

Hi everybody, I've just got my new 2011 CRF450X (a replacement for my 2004 CRF250X stolen some time ago ). From the place where I live for the moment, to the trails where I usually ride, I'll have to do about 40/50 kms on each direction on streets/paved roads/highways. Will it damage...

There is a creeping nuisance on the streets of London: Toyota Priuses and other electric cars parking silently. You'll be walking past them and then they move. Completely without noise. Every time it happens something in me goes "WAAAH!!". It's like having a little brother who jumps out at...

This afternoon there was a very brief bit of chanting outside the High Court: it went "FREE DALE FARM!" and was linked to the auld woman who was trying to get a last minute suspension of the eviction notice which expires at midnight. The site is owned by travellers who have converted it into a...
