No cats though!

Absolutely! I had a cat on my last bike (BMW 12GS) and it ruined the performance When I fitted a straight through exhaust, it completely transformed the bike

Nice display of shiny chrome and gleaming paintwork in those pics. That Harley would look great with some proper wheels on it.

The screen on that 12GS looks hideous but I bet it's the only one there that really works.

You have my greatest sympathy, Anthin!..... ...!

You, and the rest of my Flight Sim and Biker Chums in Australia and New Zealand, are approaching the depths of Winter now... ...!

Even your clocks are out of kilter with mine every day when I log on!... ....>>> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefo ... foxclocks/

A few more days 'till Mid-Summer is here...21st June....then bloody Winter starts all over again!

In the meantime, I'm making the most of the nice weather on my bike every day!

P.S.... Ausie Border Security always checks for the presence of Cats... ...!

..If we vote to leave the European Union, and its European Regulations, maybe we wont have to put up with having to suffer Catalytic Converter exhaust systems again.... ...!

My 1983 Yamaha 2-stroke motorbike works wonders with atmospheric pollution!.... ...!

....and we may get 2-strokes re-imported again from the Big Four.... ....

...talking about 2-Stroke Motorcycles.... ...

My latest upload today, of a lovely trip around some typical Herefordshire countryside, with high hedgerows, including black-and-white, half-timbered buildings in the village of Weobley, last Summer, on my speedy little Yamaha RX-S 100, 98cc two-stroke motorcycle.

Nice one Fozzer.Love the guy on the scooter at the roundabout.
I think numb nuts was an accident looking for a place to happen.
Thought you were going to wipe him out.

Keep smiling

I can't believe the number of Pubs you rode past. Something wrong with the beer then? Mind you, you were a long way from the Chequers in Leominster, a favorite stop of mine in the old days.

A few shots from my local bike meet. Weather providing, it takes place every Wednesday. It is only a ten minute ride from my house. The spectrum of bikes has to be seen, old timers via trikes and self builds to the latest technology.

Wonderful shots, Matt!

Is that a young Master Matt I see in the first photo?.... ...!

A grand gathering!

Its a funny old do....large motorcycle ride-outs always seem more frequent and popular on the European Continent (Rice -Burners), and America (Harley-Davidson + Indian) than they do over here in Britain!

During my daily and week-end rides I rarely see another motorcyclist on the road!

How times have changed!

I presume that they are all driving motor-cars now!... ...!

As well as my Honda Rebel cruiser, my trusty Yamaha RX-S 100, 2-stroke, is still ready for smoke generating fun and big grins, as only 2-strokes can produce, in very large doses!..... ...!

The weather is a bit dull today, but warm enough for a gentle cruise to somewhere nice on the Rebel... ..!

Yes, that is my youngest Sam. He cannot get enough of it all. Funny you should mention not seeing other riders, but that is how it is here. My bike is for fun but also transportation. German's do biking as a hobby and as such only go out at the weekend or evenings. I went to work on mine today, I only saw one other biker.

Nice pics. Everyone is so clean; nary a bug splat in sight. They must have ridden through a car wash on the way to the meet

Love the number plates; do they come out like that on speed cams as well? :

They don't come out on speed cameras at all.............As cameras here in Germany take a picture from the front.....
Saying that, if you are going super sonic through one, they will try very hard to identify you. I have a Honda Super Blackbird (CBR1100XX) not many of those registered locally, so in my case it would not be too hard. However they only do it if you are persistent offender or really trucking along.

Flies, hardly any yesterday. Today when I went to the office 50km each was, I had to stop on the way home and clean my visor)

My latest upload, illustrating a ride through the typical English countryside lanes bordered by high hedgerows limiting the views on either side, which is why I often envy my American Chums with no such scenery limitations on their road systems!

Starting in the village of Credenhill, (a WWII RAF Camp), a few miles outside of Hereford City, travelling through the country byways and returning back home again!

All done on my 1983 Yamaha RX-S 100, 98cc 2-stroke motorcycle, Summer 2015.

"Lane splitting" for motorcyclists becoming legal in California.....>>>>

A practice common in Great Britain and many other countries!
