Events, Meets, Ride outs etc / LOFO'S run along the Jurassic coast
« on: 16 June 2016, 07:26:55 pm »
Hello fellow Lofo's   So, who's up for a run along the Jurassic coast beginning of July ?
 
Myself and Red Ceri are planning to don a tent and sleeping bag and set out on the Saturday staying over night somewhere, Midden's up for coming too, we've just got to workout dates cos Midden's an awkward bastard. :D
 
Obviously some won't be able to stop over but could arrange to meet up along the way either day. Non Lofo's welcome too especially any locals who know some good roads.
 
I haven't planned a route but going to be the usual Nell's café meet, across country to the A272, as far west as we can get before dropping down to the coast road and taking in the magnificent views and coastline.
 
If the weathers good  we can cool off in the sea and get out on the lash Saturday night before stumbling back to our tents.
 
Just gauging any interest and letting you know what we have planned in case others fancy converging on us en-route and tagging along.
 
Thoughts please Foccers

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Yellow colour match
« on: 06 April 2016, 01:37:02 pm »
Hello Foccers, can someone confirm that the correct colour match for my bike is reddish yellow cocktail. Bought a touch up pen pack from wemoto and it looks nothing like it. It's coming up much too dark and stands out like a sore thumb. I know the colour may change once it's lacquered but it's got to look similar to start with. Am thinking I'm better off just matching it with a car colour from Halfords. Don't know if the second photo has anything to do with the paint code.
Any ideas ?

General / Does size matter ?
« on: 09 January 2016, 10:52:53 pm »
No, not what you think Exupnut, so put your willy away and step away from the mirror. :lol
 
Just enjoying watching this bloke on a YZ125 absolutely blitz those distinctly sounding 500's on a motocross practice track.
 
Proof, once again, it's all down to the pilot and sometimes, smaller and lighter is the way to go.
Obviously, it's horses for courses and if the venue was the beach at Western Super Mare, the outcome would've been different but an enjoyable watch.

Events, Meets, Ride outs etc / Calling all Lofo's
« on: 08 October 2015, 02:45:56 am »
Is that it?  Have we hung up our riding boots?  Is Midden still a cunt?  Has exupnut had his sex change yet? Have the RSPCBR'ers caught up with red yet?
This and many more questions need to be answered.  Still mild and relatively dry in our part of the country,gotta get another ride in before the years out surely. :)

General / NEAR MISS THREAD
« on: 19 July 2015, 05:42:59 pm »
Hello Foccer's,
               
Thought it might be an idea to start a new "Near miss" thread.
 
Something for us all to take heed of and bear in mind when we're out riding, also an outlet to vent any frustration at the way people seem to want to kill you or even beat yourself up over a silly mistake that could have been more serious.
 
 
I'll start it off....
 
Been a funny old weekend for me, firstly, two boy racers made intentional dangerous manoeuvres towards me. One when I was parked up, then his companion following him who swerved out when I went for the overtake. None of the manoeuvres were life threatening, just bravado I believe.
 
Then today, whilst hitting my favourite local bends which are fast, wide and sweeping I saw a car in the middle of the road facing me wanting to turn right. Two other cars at the turning waiting to come out.
I always adjust my speed and cover my brakes when I encounter this sort of scenario but this time my sixth sense told me she was going to pull across my path.
Sure enough, she pulled across me, her attention concentrated on the cars waiting to pull out....I was already on the brakes and banging down the box when her husband visibly screamed at her and she stopped midway.
I could see everyone's face wincing as I came to a stop 2 metres from the passenger door.
They was apologetic and embarrassed while the other car drivers were shaking their heads.
It's funny as I was emotionless and totally unsurprised as I was expecting it.
 
What I want to take from this, if I hadn't adjusted my speed and expected it to happen, I doubt I could have stopped in time and seeing as she stopped mid manoeuvre, taking evasive action behind her might have ended in tears.
 
Stay safe out there Foccers, people predictably do unpredictable things.  ;)

Events, Meets, Ride outs etc / LOFO's run to Beachy Head
« on: 29 May 2015, 10:14:03 pm »
Just throwing this out there to see if you Foccer's are up for this.
Me an Midden had a run down there last year and it was a good little run.
Can't remember the exact route we took, think it was via Hastings and Rye on the way down.
So, I'm thinking...first Sunday of June, the 7th,
If any Foccer's are up for this or know of a good route down there or back from, make it known.
 
Let's see if we can't keep up the regular rideouts, they are fun and it's good to stay in touch...
 
What do ya think Foccer's ?

General / Import duty rip off
« on: 13 April 2015, 07:06:06 pm »
Bought a pair of jeans off ebay, only realised they were from the states when they seemed to take too long to come and I rechecked the ad.
They tried to deliver them today but wouldn't leave them in the normal place because guess what ?   Yep, there was an £18.55 charge on them. :eek  Royal mail have put an £8.00 handling charge on top, talk about taking the piss.
 
Am having a Michael Douglas moment in the film "Falling down". :wall :grumble :crazy :groan
 
Am already feeling sorry for those behind me in the queue tomorrow when I pick them up and inform them of my £8.00 collection fee. :D
