No need to have them like that when parked in a bike only park. There's room. They ride like that.
A software developer (C#), a biker (VP of TOMCC), Physics nerd (BSc), likes board/rp games (TTRP), Hawkwind (PXR5), Abruzzo (IT), and is an international superstar (ok, maybe not). If you ride a motorcycle then you're ok in my book.

Yet, Palestine Action have taken terrorist action - letting fireworks and smoke bombs off in offices for example - so it is a terrorist organisation that should not be supported. There are other non-terrorist organisations to support.

No. That is absolute rubbish. Stop with the stupid conspiracy theories and the lies. No one is fooled.

The difference, though, is that I didn't say those others were going to spread here. Those were obviously not going to spread much.

Oh I'm not surprised in the least, as a biker I've had my unfair share of vitriol. I just don't understand why anyone would want to spend their time being like that.

I don't think he gets it. He sounds like he had a bad experience and is blaming Universities for it.

Nothing wrong with flying flags - but that has to be done responsibly and not create a potential hazard. The flags on lampposts could easily become detached and land on the visor of a motorcyclist or get in the wheels.

It affected people differently. I eventually caught it when all the restrictions had been lifted (Europe/UK) and it was just a one day bad cold. Almost certainly I hadn't caught it before because of the vaccination program.

I said, back in December 2019 when we heard the first reports: "that's coming here". It was so obvious to me I don't know why others didn't see it.

I guess it depends if you want to stay in the litre category or would consider a middle weight. The Street Triple RS is an excellent all-rounder machine which is pretty sporty with great handling.

I've had two of those. Awesome machines for covering distance and being fun too.

However the TSRGD says the same: the reference to a motor vehicle in paragraph (a) is, in a case where more than one motor vehicle is proceeding in the same direction as the approaching vehicle in a controlled area, a reference to the motor vehicle nearest to the signal-controlled crossing facility

The Saab is cooler than the XJR. If the Jag was an XJS then that would win every time, but it isn't. 🙂

That isn't what the Highway Code says. Rule 191: You MUST NOT park on a crossing or in the area covered by the zig-zag lines. You MUST NOT overtake the moving vehicle nearest the crossing or the vehicle nearest the crossing which has stopped to give way to pedestrians.

Yet, the word 'worm' is also related to 'wyrm' which is a dragon. They might change their minds if you asked them if they'd still love you if you were a dragon. 🙂
Laurence Mee (Wyrm) (@wyrmuk.bsky.social) reply parent
So, you can actually pass that first car in the zigzags. What you can't do is pass the one directly in front of the crossing (I'm assuming it was a crossing).

The Bonneville T120 moved to a water cooled engine in 2015, the Bonneville Bobber came out in 2016, the Speed Twin came out in 2018. So no, the Bonneville Bobber does not have a Speed Twin engine.

It uses the Bonneville engine so it can claim to be a Bonneville variant.
Laurence Mee (Wyrm) (@wyrmuk.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes it does. If the number of cases of the diseases increase then there is more chance of even vaccinated people catching them - and they are more likely to mutate (the diseases, not the people).
Laurence Mee (Wyrm) (@wyrmuk.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes. That's their goal. It is eugenics. They are happy to let children die of preventable diseases.

It used to be just MMR that was claimed to cause Autism, until it was pointed out that some countries (e.g. Japan) didn't use MMR but still had an increase in Autism diagnoses. It would be more believable to claim that the pollution in the atmosphere causes Autism (it doesn't of course).

Used to use it to keep original text file content 'in memory' while messing about with a script or code. I could then just save and get the original back in a flash. However, now if the underlying file changes, Notepad updates itself. 😞

It isn't from the same angle - and I can see the glass panel. The main difference is the illumination - with little illumination the dark panel looks the same as the door colour. It's typical hoax bait.

However, there are still two bids in the running, the other being Raytheon UK which is currently more likely to win, so the story itself is written with bias and political gain as an agenda. Take what is written with a pinch of salt.

Now that's a question! Triumph don't really do a sports bike at the moment. The Daytona 600 is nice, but it isn't a sports bike. I wouldn't mind a Scrambler but aren't too keen on the twins - much prefer the triples. If I had the money, a Speed Triple, otherwise a Street Triple 765 RS again.
