Where's Everyone Gone?

#1 Post by D-Rider » Mon Jul 06, 2009 7:57 am

The forum's been humming for weeks .......

Kwackerz returns ......

Everyone goes into hiding ......


So, what are you all up to (other than hiding from Tim)?

So what are you doing hiding underneath the planet? :smt002

Me, I'm too busy to be posting on a regular basis. Not even getting to enjoy the nice weather, but planning on a couple of days off this week, so might get out and have a ride report later on this week.

Unless it rains... :smt010

I'm busy spraying this (the spraying is easy but the welding filling and sanding isn't) :smt013

Just finished welding a sill on and a hole underneath. The tub os currently off and the cab is nearly ready for a top coat.

fark me

two vehicles in scally land parked with wheels STILL on....

I have been working - too bloody hard as i go back to managing a unit again in a couple of weeks - oh - and moving and such bollocks - damned wife wants to clean shit before we leave.....


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

I've also been on me hols (Turkey) nearly binned the ped I hired the roads are that bad!! and where there is a surface it's polished to such a smooth shine that any cornering is scary.
I have new found respect for Mr Kenan Sofuoglu...............where he ever managed to learn how to race a bike in that country amazes me

But Turkey is oh sooooooooooooooooooo hot!!!
