Blue ,
Just been thinking about the " bad manners" you Brits displayed in the New members section.
Is nothing sacred !
I think we should ask Bedouin and Boomer if we can have a "fenced playground" , for want of a better phrase , so those that want or need
to express their pent up emotions or feelings to whoever or whatever , can do so.
I just normally go out and kick the dog or go for a ride.
For you fellas that , due to snow or the plain shithouse weather that you poor people in the Northern Hemisphere get all the time , I think
that this could be a valuable outlet . The dog is happier , the wife or partner is happier . We can all get a laugh
Since you seem a bit more sensible and rational than your mates , what do you think ?

We're all suffering from cabin fever and for me a severe case of Nobikeitus. That coupled with the state of the economy, the weather and we are now in discussion with the French to have a joint Military HQ means that we are all a bit grumpy.

But you are right I am faaaaar more sensible and rational that my fellow compatriots

Hang on they might not let me play with them anymore now

Not me, that part of the reason for having the many bikes..

During the winter months, when the dark evening or worst weather prevents from being out on the road, I have a nice garage to tinker around on the other bikes, servicing or re-building.

Apart from missing a fridge stocked with beer, what better way to spend those long dark evenings.

Feel for you, because I don't think I could cope without having a bike in my life.. Get onto Ebay and buy yourself a project for next winter.

Still hopefully only a fortnight now.

Regards

 
If only I had a bigger garage

Been promising myself a project bike for a few years now. Bobber Speedmaster is on the cards, 2 months without a bike is no fun - roll on 1st March!

It was beaten up pretty badly so I think I'll leave it alone. Engine and wheels only parts worth saving.

check out some of these custom mags there are little places all over britain that manufacture things like frames etc,
man with your artistic flair and organic imagination it could be inspirational (couldnt it?),
