Posted: 10:41 - 01 Apr 2006 Post subject: What's with this summer weather we are having lately? |
|
|
It's Saturday to day an I tought I get up early and get out on the bike...........but looked outside..........forget about it , is it realy worth having a bike in the garage depreciating ££££££s!!
No wonder there are so many bikes for sale with such low milages, we just don't get the decent weather to use them anymore! Climate change?
Maybe it's time to sell it on , and buy scuba gear (have to learn how to swim first )
I need a vacation or a few weeks on the sick, so everytime the sun comes out, the duration of sunshine depends on the shutter speed of the sun, usually about 0/500 sec to 5 seconds, I might get taking the bike out within that time!
Yours, Victor Meldrew!! ( 1 foot in the grave) ____________________ https://www.freewebs.com/hondavaraderoxl125v4/ |

It's scarily changeable here. I left the house in sunshine. By the time the bike was out of the garage it was spitting on, 5 mins later it was lashing down. 15 mins after that I came out of Halfords and it was blazing sunshine. It really can't decide what the hell to do... ____________________ Monster m600

It started out a bit dull and windy this morning here on the Island but it brightened up to be a nice sunny day. A lot of bikes out today, plenty of nodding to be done ____________________ Live on the Isle of Wight and ride a CBR600F |

Weather wound me up too much today... I only got my Coguar a few weeks ago, and I've still been driving to work in my car, even in the good weather...
But this morning I gazed out of the window onto a bright and sunny day, not a cloud in the sky... so I thought I might as well take the bike... MISTAKE...
Good old British weather... it was alright up until midday, then it kept chucking it down every 10mins, and stopped about 5mins before it was time to go home.
Normally I wouldn't mind too much... but at the moment I've not got a chain guard on, and I'm missing the panel over the battery and surrounding areas... and as it's an electric start only... if the battery packs up -I'll be buggered!
Think I’ll be taking the car tomorrow! ____________________ '07 Honda CBF500 / '93 Vauxhall Astra (www.fb.com/2wdOffRoader) / '04 Vauxhall Movano

It's still spring! If it wasn't for all this rain we get about this time every year then all the salt wouldn't get washed away |

I went on the back with my instructor for a 7 hour advanced lesson on sun (would have loved to have rode but i havent bloody well passed yet ) we took the zephyr 1100 which i have pretty much fallen in love with, even though i previously wanted an r6!
Anyway... even though it was cold and windy and it hailed i had the most fun i've had in ages!!! |
