Another pointless thread

We have returned from our weeks holiday in west Wales - only the post man noticed we had gone

I went away with a light pink girlfriend and came home with a brown one - not a swap just some of that sun type wotsit has changed her colour

Me, I have sunburn and peeling shoulders

Good to see almost all is ok - HG will hopefully not have to give hand signals if the indicators will play ball

Just loads of photo's to route through now
K10D, K5 plus plenty of clueless enthusiasm.

Latest news Stuey..
...ALL the electrics work..

.....including the indicators!

It's the engine that's the latest problem and it's heading for a quick strip and new seals...

....gotta get it sorted before the month end, that's when the tax on the Beema runs out....
Cheers, HG

Why not turn it into a hybrid?

Actually, reasonably seriously (sorry), an electric motorbike would be such a good thing. Should be easy enough to charge (very hard to push the car through the passage to the door) and a range of 150 miles would do me (I tend not to go far).

Let's go into business - I'll patent it, you do the work, and we'll sell it on Dragons' Den!

Darn, someone's done it already.

Mind you, 63 mile range on the motorway. Hmm.

Don't they already have a moped type thing that charges on the downhill and helps with uphill?

Not good but it sounds like you will sort it HG

Does this now mean you will be limited to abusive hand signals rather than indication??

Err... Isn't that just where you freewheel downhill and momentum kicks in?

I'm sure Newton said something about it?

When on a bicycle, why does the wind always blow from the direction you are going to?

Just got the K200 ready for Honesty, she's going to Oslo for a short break

Joe's going with her as she needs somebody to drag the suitcase!

As for me, more disappointment on the work front, so it's out to the hut and start sorting dodgy crank seals on the Yam...

Presumably it is full of money. An expensive place Oslo!~I hope they get Oslo cards so they can get into things for free and use the public transport for free too. Gets them discounts at some places to eat too.

If you live in Yorkshire, everywhere is expensive!

I assume they're not biking there on a dodgy Yamaha?
