That’s why he’s faster than me…

May 4, 2011 Leave a comment

After a Sunday ride that started with, er, a minor cock-up that I have promised not to reveal (Edit: but since he has Facebooked it, lol, it would have helped our early start if he had turned up with a front wheel for the bike ;) ), and a hideous 5.00am wake-up, we had a simple but pleasant ride which at least served to get some of the cobwebs blown away, and allowed me to vent freely, in early morning, things that I might otherwise have kept to myself. Time will tell whether that was wise or not. ;)

I’ve shown my new bike here before, so instead I’ll post a picture of the beauty that M. was riding. I’m sure that’s why he was faster…apart from the fact that my rear brake was rubbing for the first 10km of the ride. /D’oh!

Anyway, Black Beauty, gotta love it:

I know there is a spelling mistake in there somewhere…or do they provide “Happy Ending” services as well. ;)

Parallel to something, anyway. ;)

The Sunday Genting Run.

May 18, 2010 Leave a comment

Last Sunday I hooked up with some buddies from the Bad Rider’s Club for the traditional run up the hill to Genting Highlands. Here are a few random shots.

God, was it ever a hot day, but with new tyres, brake hoses and sorted suspension, The Flying Banana made good progress up the twisties. :)

As usual TFB likes to drop in first at The Coffee Bean for much needed

refreshment.

Some people like to dress up the strangest bikes.

I rather fancy one of these for everyday fun. ;)

Much attention was being paid to a brace of Ducati Desmosedicis. Hey, why not? Buy one, free one, and a famous signature to boot.

Random shots. Beautiful “antique” Honda.

Walking to the gym today I came across this fantastic, immaculate, Honda motorcycle of about 40-50 years vintage (at a guess). Not a speck of dirt to sully the sublimity of the pure design and functional integrity of a classic. If only my 5 year old Suzuki looked this immaculate!

Must have been fully restored by a madly keen collector, as all parts seemed original, and just groove on that wooden panel inset into the stainless steel tank! And those flared mudguards. A thing of beauty is truly forever. ;)

Better security, better upgraded facilities, and currently undergoing a nice fresh paint job.

It’s a nice place to live. :)

Removing the old paint, and renewing. Nice.
