    Blow job

    Made you look!


    Anyone ever been actually blown off their bike before? Was out late yesterday afternoon, not too nice a day in Glasgow, was windy-ish but I didn't think it was too bad. Was going along a street mostly sheltered by flat but then there was a break in the shelter just as I went round a mini-roundabout. A big gust came along and caught me side on and, no shit, I nearly got blown off!

    The whole bike just slid sideways, there was nothing I could do...braked to about 5mph but was still pushed right over in the other lane! Luckily no-one else was on the roundabout but the ppl behind must've thought I was a right muppet!

    Anyone else had a blow job this bad?

    on my way to work on monday a flatbed trailer carrying fencepanels shed its load onto the car in front of me, i swear this is true btw, it managed to lose about 15 panels they were flying into the front of the car, flipping up and sailing over me.
    it was absolutely shit scary.

    since we were just going past a slip road the car dived down it (i followed)just as one flew off the side and slid accros the chevrons towards the right hand side of his car and he went up the verge doing an emergency stop, the slip road was then clear and i had to ride over the fence panel, i swear itme actually stopped for those moments going over it.
    i was tempted to let my tyres down and get a new set of tyres but that'd be out of order.

    the guy in the car came over afterwards and we had a chat and stuff and started going mad at the truck driver.

    luckily noone else got caught up in it as a lorry sat across the road (A10) after it happened with its hazards on while the guy cleared up all the mess, i went down last nite and picked up a couple of the chunks that were hitting me, will put some pics up later, proper scary shit.

    No Nick, that's no blow jobs that will do that...you need to go out and get as much as possible.

    Go. Now. Run. Explain to women in the street they can help you fight prostate cancer!

    There is a hill over my way thats fecking well known for being a right twat in the wind. Getting a slight wobble on the front wheel at 70-80 aint nice. Sometimes have to lean into the wind to stop getting blown into the curb

    Almost did today, coming back from my old mans house at Louth after a nice trackday at cadwell on tuesday..making nice progress down the a46 bypass (150mph) and man is it even windy today. a massive gust hit me went about 2m to the left luckily there was nothing there but it did put the shits up me, and lorries coming the other way today when they came past me was like the wind punched me in the chest not nice and to make it even worse the a42 was closed so i had to make a 60mile detour down the m1.. not a good trip in all... but it could of been worse, at least it wasnt raining.
    I used to love the smell of 2 stroke in the morning, now all i smell is 4 poke...but damn its still nice
