Hi Badger... Update on helmet... binned Shark bought Caberg Duke, its one of those fancy flip helmets... 367 miles today and its very good no silly pressure points across forehead like the Shark and the flip up front is really nice in warm weather slow moving traffic... and even includes pinlock vis...

Hi all... made it back to Falmouth in one piece 368 mile round trip... no too shabby... thanks y'all

Cheers guys... checked it on GPS should be easy for me to find... I'm on a blue Fazer8 usually wear hi-viz so should be simples to spot... see ya there :0)

Hi Smiler... Burnthouse from Falmouth here... maybe up for an early blast up to Taunton. Not to sure were Sainsbury's is but got new helmet this week and up for a big blast.

I ran out of fuel 9th of March... I know very silly, but sometimes you think 'I'll make it to the next garage' but not this time... 5 miles short... Loops Anyway, that's not why I'm here... as part of my insurance I get RAC roadside assistance cover for the duration of my policy... allegedly. So I c...

Hi all... I'd just want to thank all who stopped for me when I broke down today... running out of petrol 5 miles from petrol station...not the best way to spend Sunday afternoon. Martin from Penzance riding a FJ1300 save my bacon... got me fuel and I reckon he is a one of Cornwall's Unsung Heroes......

Might I suggest the Subway on the A30 just this side of Launceston... at Plusha... plenty of room to park and refuel and easy to find

Sounds like a plan... weather looking iffy for Sunday but these weather apps are sh×te... So put me down for Fraddon start as 10:15 seems quite civilised.

Looking forward to it... will we need wetsuits this time

Just checked weather for Sunday Cornwall- Bude-Falmouth-Penzance areas 30% chance of showers in morning ... or if you look at it as 70% chance of no showers, I like them odds better.

Yeah....as above sad but wasn't looking forward to rainy morning riding... shame we didn't set it up for last Sunday would have been perfect!!! Damn this summer weather... I've voted for 18th too, Bank Holiday would be a no go, as I work in retail and they don't 'do Bank Holidays' apparently so I'd ...

What's this a rideout with a legitimate reason to wake up the neighbours for a change.... may just add my name to that list.
I'll start eating carrots now, to help with night vision, though I'm not sure how many carrots to put in the petrol tank.

He should be ok then.... wouldn't cbr look a bit small... look like a mini moto. Maybe he could give ktm a go as favours the taller rider.

There are plenty of bikes you can try.... see link below http://www.autotrader.co.uk/EDITORIAL/BIKES/news/47bhp_bikes_for_the_new_A2_licence_test%20.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; They key thing is the weight... not for riding but when you have to move by your own powe...

Surely that would cost me more than the subscription fee as I'd need to get the box and the dish... probably... I here motogp.com charges £80'something to watch it on their site... so may be more viable. But who knows til official announcement :-\ Wish they had opted for the snooker championship ins...
