    If you weren't baking it large they'll just make you sit in a room and get a lecture whilst paying for the privilege

    70 in a 50.... so its points by the look of it...

    Gets on my tits as it's stoke on trents biggest cash cow where I got caught, a straight 2 lane dual carriage way with 1 enormous slip road half way down and it drops to 50 just long enough for a camera van to perch on top of a bridge...

    Oh.

    Never mind - I doubt it'll have that much of an effect and you won't have to listen to Constable McDanger trying to save the kittens

    so 3pts shouldn't make that much difference? that's a relief.... especially as I have 3 vehicles to insure, I haven't paid over £220 to insure anything in over 3 yrs

    All set up. League is called SXOC. Do we normally put the password in here in clear text ? I've PMed it to you, Dave but if it should go in here, I'll put it here too.

    I'll also be taxing my bike again on Tuesday so hoping for a little more mild weather. I seem to have missed riding more this Winter than the last couple of years. Really keen to get back out there.

    Made my way to B&Q last night to get some paraffin to use as a degreaser - will try to give the bike a good going over this coming weekend where I've got some time away from Wifey.

    Then I've got to get back on it and, to be honest, I'm dreading it My shoulder is far from fixed - I'd go as far as to say it feels weaker now than it did 3 months after it popped. I just don't think I can ride the Sprint any more, it's too crouched and too heavy. But I've sort of exhausted all other options that tick enough boxes because a light bike with upright riding position doesn't ever = pillion friendly.

    Looks like the pillion friendly bit is what needs to give; that'll not please Wifey but it's a choice between that and not riding at all, as far as I can see.

    Stupid shoulder

    Get down the gym. You don't hear Vale moaning about how his shoulder stops him riding

    My brother had his hips replaced so he could get back on a bike !

    Tried all sorts mate, it's getting worse; not better.

    I'm not quite as hardcore as Vale - perhaps I'm on a par with Hutchy though

    Have you tried a tiger 800? I must admit it's probably the best all round bike I have riden - nice light and upright ... and my Mrs reasons it's the best pillion she has been on, even better than a cruiser
