I should be free Sunday, have a couple of different routes around Wales I ride on weekends, anything from 150 to 350 miles depending on what you fancy.

Sorry Gents.
Only just caught up with the later bits on here.


Paul, if you're taking Penny to the food fair how about meeting at 12:00 noon at Oasis in Abergavenny?


Gives me time to come round from going out with some friends this evening  :lol


How does that suit everyone?

yup sounds good mate i'll be there at twelve. last time I was there I told a bloke on a new humungous ktm "its ok feller, but personally I couldn't ride a bike with a headlight that looks like a fanny" he didn't take it well. Hopefully he either wont be there, or if he is his sense of humour has improved, or better still he'll be on summat not sporting imitation female genitalia lighting.

12:00 it is then - excellent.


Couldn't agree more about the KTM lights.
A great bike, no doubt, and a really good looking one completely spoiled by the baboon's arse lights  :rollin

Oil be there on the 800. Depending on weather I'll either be sporting green sliders or textiles but you will be able to spot the long hair.

Hi Paul & Steve


Just wanted to say thanks for a great day.
I really enjoyed the ride and being with other bikers who are quite clearly a lot more skilled than I am  :'(
Gave me lots to think about and motivation to try and improve.


Hopefully the weather stays kind over the coming weeks & months and we can get out again sometime soon.


Cheers for now,
Dave.

Will that was a fun day. Great to meet up with some like minded people and have a gripe about bloody milenials.
Well have to do it again before the weather gets too bad.
Photo attached.

Nice one Steve.
It is good to have a moan about stuff with similarly minded people  :D


I forgot to say Paul, those headlight bulbs you fitted looked great - a nice bright, blue/white light coming from them.


Which type/make did you fit?

Also, in case you need it, here's a link to Barkbusters website for the "Storm" handguards I've got fitted to my bike:-


https://barkbusters.net/products/storm/

They do different versions with different methods of fixing them to the bike - scroll down to get to the clamp mounted version that I've got.

cheers guys, really good to get to know you both a bit more and a bloody good day. Dave those leds came from a thread on here mate, ill try and find it..bought them on amazon, they weren't cheap (sixty quid the pair I think) but are far superior to the cheaper ones ive bought since for the Harley, cb, and transit, which are ok on dip but hardly any different on full beam! the fazer ones have transformed my winter commute, especially when its dark, wet, misty, raining and you've got some twat with a cyclops headlight behind you filling your mirrors with dazzle lol..gotta get me some barkbusters, they look bloody good tot. Steve watching you throw your bike into corners its both reassuring and v nice to know I got a set of them avon 3dxms coming for me cb, they couldn't have had a better testimonial mate..

Did you two see that guy waiting to cross the road with a huge magic mushroom in his hands?
Title: Re: Anybody out & about SE Wales tomorrow
Post by: Oldgit on 10 October 2018, 05:53:20 pm
Are you sure it was a mushroom, no a bell end???
Title: Re: Anybody out & about SE Wales tomorrow
Post by: celticbiker on 10 October 2018, 08:26:47 pm
If it was his bell end he needs to see a doctor.
