Main dealers who can't be arsed to ring you back when you've already phoned them twice today to buy an 8 Grand bike.
They obviously don't need the sale. 



You obviously dont need a tracer Grayo :lol .........was behind one today & it sounded really nice....still prefer the naked MT09 personally........p.s i cant find those pegs anywhere sorry, magpies have nicked them maybe.
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike

Sky TV.  You pay all that money a month and it's packed with adverts!  I can make breakfast, pop the TV on while eating it, usually it's just adverts. Finish eating, turn TV off and go to work having only watched ads

That's what Sky+ is for!

Switch on the Box, press pause, go and make breakfast, then, once you're eating it, unpause and skip through the ads :thumbup

Why can't workmen fill in all the damn potholes in a street while they've got the tarmac to hand, rather than just filling in the biggest ones?


And what the feck are they making roads with these days, is it some form of marmite and breadcrumb combo?
They just seem to be disintergrating really quickly.

Do you live near me? It's really shite the way they repair roads round here. They even stopped tarmacing in the middle of a rut because the depth was marginally less than the minimum. FFS, what do they think will happen next, the bleeding new tarmac will peel up because the jobs not finished properly.

I took a different route home last night so had to keep my eyes peeled for potholes, but still ended up whacking one full on, but they look like they've been dug with a shovel these days rather than just slowly growing bigger.
I've never seen so many that are so bad before.
It's a proper nightmare when riding in the dark, especially if it's raining 'cos they just fill up with water and resemble a puddle.  :grumble

And the further north you go, the worse they are.
Here's one that Hedgetrimmer rode into in Cumbria recently.


I could change my opinion, but then we'd both be wrong.

Cars on the side of a road with a notice in the window saying " FOR SALE" then about sixteen pages telling you how many miles to the gallon  and how carefully it has been driven, its had a new clutch,all new brakes, reconned engine, wheel bearings, new alternator, reconned starter , (foocked really)    and then at the bottom in small writing that you can NEVER see is the price,,,,,,how much,,umm I wonder ,,,,,,I am not stopping and going back,,fock um......fools

All they need is one piece of paper with £2,000  written on it in big writing,, fools the lot of em

Problem with that is that my ideology of a bike running really well can be a million miles off someone elses beliefs.

I hate starbucks, tax dodging cnuts!

I remember when 9/11 happened there was a comment that NYC Firefighters had been refused water at Starbucks as they had rushed out without any cash....they've never had a penny from me ....while we're on the subject of moans I'm hoping that if we leave Europe we won't hear kilometres etc on the tv instead of miles and people who say" hommage and uber .....can't stand this euro talk crap...that's all.
