Heavy rain today but that's fine as I am not working today. In fact, I have no reason to go out all day! Yay. Which is really unusual and something to appreciate :) i have 10 new kanji to master and a pile of homework to check. My bike is under cover and feeling unloved today I'm sure.

I spent an hour going through the forums looking for spammers and non legitimate forum users/members.

I nuked about 6 of them.

If you see any spammers send us mods a message.

And..now I can get on with my day....hanging Christmas lights outside.

Made a breakfast run down to Tuckerton, NJ. It's on the coast, about 50 miles from here. Two Triumph Trophys, a Triumph Sprint, and a Ducati Monster. Felt sorry the young guy on the Monster- naked bike, no windshield, and he was not running electric gear. It was about 33F when we started - brrrrrr!

Blasted through JHB traffic on the new R1200R. Takes me 30 mins when it takes the cages 90 mins
I spent my therapy money an a K1200S
The therapy worked, I got a GS now

Just finished another set of nights.

Before I left offered some overtime on 26/12. So between 25th & 29th will now be earning 61hrs at premium rate!! Bear in mind this is only NHS rate but the best I can currently earn :lol:


Was planning to shopping this morning but cold, wet & windy here so sat at home with fire on (treat) hot water bottle at my back + glass of cheeky Italian red :cheers:

Is lane splitting ("filtering") legal over there?

Yes it is, but from a survival point of view, we would do it anyway, far to many accidents with guys getting rear ended. JHB traffic is a nightmare. Thankfully most of my clients are used to me turning up on a bike and I think they appreciate me being on time with no excuses.

One of our big complaints here is that there is very little visible policing, lots of speed traps and from time to time complete road blocks, so we have lots of windegat drivers and riders.

We are in Africa bro

it's a "procreating" jungle out here :kicking: :laughing: :laughing:
