I have to say I'm a bit worried about mine. The forks are on route from Kebab after he did the emulator mod for me... which means the bike has no front end and is on it's centre stand and propped up on an old car rim under the downpipes.... in the middle of my drive. :\
It's reasonably sheltered though and it's actually pretty secure on the rim, not budged at all in a couple of weeks and would take a lot to push it over - but am quite concerned nonetheless. Not a lot I can do though :'( Would've brought it into the living room if it were on 2 wheels. First time I've had the bike off the road like this and the worst storm in 25yrs comes along. Wish me luck!!!
weather looks fine to me...the stone is still here:

:lol
:rollin :rollin :rollin Liking the stone :rollin My fazzers outside , but put round back up against a wall and on centre stand. Bikes covered with bungies wrapped round it. Fingers x for all foccers out there :thumbup
I was round at a friend's house earlier and as I was walking back I saw someone's bike (under a cover) lying flat on the ground obviously having been blown over.
I thought about picking it up, but figured that if I did, it would probably just get blown over again and cause more damage, so, with regret, I left it 
Hmmm, reports on telly are looking shit. Trees gone down already. Still quiet here though (eery)
I've decided that if things kick off I'll have to resort to lying the bike down on a mattress on the drive :\
Got my fingers crossed for all our bikes!

Just flapping about on this stagnant little pond on the outer rim of the internet.....yup.... :-))
Getting some very strong gusts here in south London. Bikes are all tucked away in the garage.
Wokingham (M4 jct 10) to Canary Wharf London took 10 mins extra this morning - no real issues!!
Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.
Just about to go out now. Not as bad as I thought it would be. My friend who lives here rides a 125 for work and he thinks his bike will go over today. He said when he stops at an account to pickup he just gonna lay the bike on its side to avoid any damage. No doubt he get a ticket for that. Take it easy out there today.

Well down here in Dorset it got a bit rough for a while early hours, but Blade survived its night out, cant see garden for tree debris and apparently half a mile up the road has no power ! i was meant to be heading down to Devon today but looks like A35 is riddled with fallen trees so guess it going to be an 'Admin' day :lol as you can tell i am devastated 
Left home for work 20 minutes early just in case, and arrived at work 30 minutes early :lol

I was only 10 minutes late due to smoking 3 fags outside at 5am, looking at trees blowing etc and trying to make my mind up :rolleyes .
So is that 30 minutes earlier leaving for home or an extra coffee break before you start?

I'm the boss so it's minimum 30 minutes extra :lol

Bike survived the wind  Three fence posts didnt , all replaced and sorted now
I'm in Surrey. I've never experienced such gusty winds before, not even in the north-east of Scotland where I'm originally from. Bike was on its centre stand in the drive and survived. However, casualties included large branch from maple tree in garden torn off, some fencing with trellising and mature roses blown over (these bits of the fence were the only parts not to have concrete posts in the ground), neighbour's fence blown over, other neighbour's chimney lost some bricks. Kitchen ceiling leaking.
Took the bus into work as all south western trains were cancelled. Loads of debris and flooding on the roads. Interesting to see instances of freshly cut logs still lying by the road side, presumably to be collected later.
Saw one bike on the roads this morning: red and white CBR600 with similarly attired rider.
