It has been the same for me for around 8 weeks, keeps me in an impossible loop.

From Cannock for me, lot of the roads I/we ride are great as you know. I love the Vale of Kerri for it’s view on my way back toward home. Always get out for 5-7 hours whenever I can.

The Marches and out into Wales for me or somewhere similar to this.

^^^not a chance of naming such without google, sadly

A treaty with Russia ain’t worth jot I’m afraid.

They’d given security guarantees to Ukraine before and have since decided otherwise.

Russia will be back again in a decade, they haven’t gone a decade without attacking a neighbouring country.

No

Does this mean The Sith are going to become involved or is this speculation?

Not how read his post, he did state if.

Taiwan. If NATO (and the West) had just shrugged and turned their backs, I think China would probably already be rolling their tanks into Taiwan while the world media is distracted in Ukraine.

Hmmmm

I suffer the same, triggers seem to be these days and in no particular order.

Coffee

Dehydration

Too much dairy product.

Usually have a pounding headache the next day all day.

Introduction to Scale Model Weathering Workshop

Join a tri club if you can, they should have someone on hand to help with your technique. It will also keep you ‘honest’ and add a little discipline to your sessions. If not seek out a swim club if you’ve one local.

Train hard, race easy.
Good Luck

3×2 concrete slabs buried into your perimeter, I’m fairly sure they aren’t more than 3ft deep tunnellers.

Hopefully you don’t trap him in your garden…………..

I ride Cannock Chase from my house usually these types of riders wouldn’t be anywhere near Birches Valley.

I encounter them on a fairly regular basis but never seen them at what I’d consider honeypot locations. They’re usually ride at out of the way locations not usually frequented by non locals.

Not ever had an issue with them personally, they’ve always given way to me should we cross trails.

I’ve never seen these trails motorbike Police riders mentioned they’re probably more over Brindley Heath I suspect.

The worst erosion I’ve seen is from MTB riders creating paths that didn’t exist previously, probably best not too much chatter about trail erosion.

Touch wood never had a problem with Hermes nor any other household member.

Did someone mention slotted screws? Devils own work they are i mean really……..😡

If it makes you feel any better I knew for months that Brum were introducing a CAZ and still fell foul of it. I just forgot to pay in the required time frame.

The signs are pretty much everywhere and there was some very big advertising hoardings on the main routes into the City.

Luckily for me now my new van is exempt for the time being…….

The name of the women in HSIN is unknown to a wider audience, simply known as A Girl.

If you’re not using it and it’s unlikely to be put back to rideable by you then I’d sell it on.

A-H Skyraider

Surprised this product is still produced for visors, most motorcyclist I know use Pinlocks.

How about a ‘drink in moderation January’ for those of us who have a degree of self control.;)

Probably better to pistol whip the assailant if you can actually hit him with bullet.

Carry 2 knives right hand directional with thumb the other not.

A worthy cause if I lived in or visited Scotland, as I don’t it doesn’t get a donation from me.

They’re referred to as islands here in South Staffordshire.

Was hoping it was from that obscure New Wave band……………

Jaffa Cakes

Hmm, how annoying for you.

I’d hope that either the dealer or Triumph will gift you the extra 2 year warranty as a good will gesture or a super duper p’ex against another Triumph.

I don’t see any other way out of this for you.

Those that seem to think you should do away with the QS/blipper as it’s not a requirement are not being rational. I’ve a bike with this feature and although not vital being without would take away some of the fun of riding. You’ve bought and paid for a feature on the bike that just doesn’t work without being replaced every 1,000 mile.

AF DCT, great bike neighbour and mate have one.

Can’t quote any posts at all, a lack of IT skills is the problem.

Military not a civilian take on WW2 but an interesting read non the less. It’s a little controversial in that some believe it to be a work of fiction.

£5-6 for a pint is about right these days I’m afraid, soft drinks have been on par with alcoholic drinks for at least 20 years.

As stated get it checked over by a competent person, it may well be it is an economical repair. Better the van you know sometimes.

The prices of second hand vans shocked me a couple of Months ago, my old 62 plate Vito LWB that I thought was worth buttons are fetching over 4K. I’d been thinking I’d be lucky to clear 2k…..

Get over to Retrobike, someone on there will appreciate it.

I didn’t realise that the gap is speed reliant thought 1.5 metres was mandatory come what may?

Chainsaw

Under these circumstances yes, he’s a professional driver and should know better.

What other excuse do you need to crack out the chainsaw, remember your hi viz vest cones and clipboard to make it look official.

If you could get a couple of mates watch you also wearing hi viz that’d make it look like a real official task.

Good Luck
