tori said: Biker's Nemesis said: VinceFox said: i meant it figuratively. ...And I don't give a fig! Thank you. You're absolutely right Mr Fox. The sound of a 1000 ccs echoing around a catholic church as the priest spoke of the virtues of a silent, obedient and virtuous wife was too much to take. The angry tap of my stilettoed heel on tiles as the sound of quick gear changes called like some kind of call of the wild. Figuratively speaking, I did not give a fig for the whole figgin' debacle. BN, next time you come and get me caged animal?

Went out late, so all the bikes were coming the other way, and roads were quiet up to Long Preston. Bit chilly after a couple of hours but lovely sunshine nonetheless. Saw an immaculate, spot-lessly clean R7 parked up... at least I think it was, said so on the tail.
At one point, I had to slow down and pull over to the left of the lane for an oncoming bike overtaking 4-5 cars. He passed me at speed whilst still in my lane, still overtaking the cars. I'm not sure of the etiquette in such situations but it seemed dangerous, if not discourteous, to me. There was also a cyclist in between us both, in my lane, which added to the hazards.

Sadly the numbers are down over previous years. You used to get lots of cars and bikes coming over from France & Sweden but it's a bit expensive for people now as most of those big yank cars probably get less than 10mpg.

I do go to Norwich HD occasionally so I'll pop into "Ze Cherman" side for a cuppa next time. I bought the bike there from Dennis last year.
I'm hoping to be there for the bike show on the 30th next month if work doesn't have me away somewhere.
Do you go to the new bike night thingy on a Friday at the North Walsham Diner?

I keep meaning to, but i don't really want to turn up on something as modern as one of our Germans. But maybe if i can get my MZ on the road or after i've finished my CB350 i will definately be along

Been out on the push bike all day. Feeling sorry for myself now, did over 20miles (want to say 26 but need to check the map) with the little man in the baby seat and a 15kg rucksack.
Time for a bath and a beer, then collapse.
