    What got my rackles up....

    At Motorcyle Live yesterday. Lined up for an hour to sign on to test ride the new CBR600F. Signed on, had all the paperwork and passed the breathalyser. Rock up 3 hours later for the half hour briefing before hand to be told that they have full range of kit (you must wear their or the insurance is voided) and to get my sizes. The smallest helmet - small, smallest gloves - small, smallest bootes - size 7!! There reasoning is that there isn't and shouldn't be many female bikers so they don't need to accommodate them with smaller sizes!! Well didn't they cope it!! Argggggg

    Maybe they expected all Aussie women to take size 11's?

    What pissed me off today........ actually it was yesterday!

    A nice ride to start off with, coming to an end with some unusual traffic which was not expected at that time of day and on that road.......A21 actually.......South bound.....
    Obviously a prang of some kind...... and yep, further on and much more traffic more or less at a standstill, we come across a prang alright, thought it was one up the rear jobby but no.... A deer had been hit.
    The deer on the ground beeding badly from its nose and mouth still moving about, with passengers of the cars looking on while the animal dies slowly and in some considerable pain i should imagine.....
    What is up with fucking car drivers?? hasn't anyone the guts or the gumption to put the deer down.....hasn't anyone a wheel brace or something suitable in the boot? Kids looking on to. :mad:
    There really are some gutless fucks out there, doesn't take much to put an end to an animals misery.
    I had my young one on the back of the bike and had to answer her questions about it, even an eight year old agrees that it should have a quick painless end.....
    Should of done it myself..........

    Hope that someone watches them slowly snuffing it some day.......some people.....I shit them! :nah:

    Booking my son a flight back to Uk for a family wedding in May - Got a brilliant quote yesterday morning - went through the whole lot right up to the Make Payment - but as I was just off out decided to do it for real last night -- all was fine except I could NOT change the currency from malyasian ringits to Sterling . So for the third time today I have used another hour of my time to go through it all, and yet again cant change the currency -so cant make the payment :-( When you ring them they say use the web site aaaargh!!!!) So still not got it bloody booked !!

    Can't you just pay by credit card ? If its in Ringitt, your Credit Card Company will just do the exchange rate for you. Rough exch is GBP1 = MYR4.98...I'm guessing CC Exch closer to MYR 4.92 ish...

    Can't use my bike as the wheel is at the bike shop with a new tyre fitted and I can't get it till Friday as I don't get paid till then :cry2:

    So I've resorted to removing and polishing and greasing all the bolts on my bike :think2:

    Poxy doctors! Last year the wife had an operation that resulted in having over 10 weeks off work. Due to some problems that she has been experiencing of late she went to the doctors and they told her, oh yeah the surgeon did notice blah blah but didnt do the work whilst doing the other stuff because you didnt have any of the symptoms at the time But now you do you have to have another operation and another 10 weeks off work! Since the original operation she has changed her jobs and now wont be entitled to be paid for this time. So not only is she worried about the op, the money but totally pissed off that they didnt do it the first time around! Which in turn pisses me off too!

    Fecking weirdo women who for some reason last night decided she did not like bikes. was riding up city way rochester and she kept putting her rear fog lamps on which is becoming a normal thing for me now cos car drivers think that my standard headlight is too bright.I thought I no were near you to blind you with my light so what are you going on about,so I went to go round her and she pulled over to the white line.I gave it one more try and again she pulled to the right,so I thought I'll wait til I get to the collage and use the outside lane and piss passed her.so at that weird roundabout thing by the airport I went to over take her and she blocked me and two other cars by driving in the middle of the two lanes and weaving everytime I went to over take.still flashing her rear fogs I thought I had enough so I sat behind her with full beams on lighting her car up like crystal palace and followed her all the way to asda on bluebell were she turned off..Why if I was annoying her so much why not just let be pass and get rid of me rather than block the road.
