Here in my area (Vic) today is a crap wet windy day, what is the weather like in your area or state. It will be a day spent inside on the computer or cleaning up in the shed.
-
I agree it was a little that way yesterday I will go up the shed after lunch and pull some bikes apart and maybe set up my zinc plating kit.
-
Very damp. So I'm making stickers and pulling the downstairs kitchen apart :-\
-
Nice day here sun is shining, just out having brekky overlooking the lake..
-
Good day for a ride as no dust and at least if you come off the landing will be a bit softer :D
Or a good day to play in the man cave and play on the bikes ;)

Any day above ground is a grat day ;) weathers weather we need the sun and the rain (not convinced about the snow though )

Of course later i will get called to work and some Bastard will do their best to ruin it ::)

It's a nice and warm 38 degrees here today, but then its 35-40 here everyday this time of year and will probably get warmer when its summer :-\
Spent yesterday mowing the lawn and getting about 30 ticks off the dog, then we had a heat storm yesterday afternoon, no rain, just thunder and lightning

Sorry for going off topic ::) but i always had an unnatural fear of snakes ::) (unnatural when you consider i grew up in the UK where there is more chance of meeting an honest polititian than a snake and i live in NZ where there are no snakes whatsoever )
But anyway since i was a kid i was always terrified of the things , i couldn't even go look at the buggers in the zoo ;D what a Wooser :-*
Some years ago i thought i need to address this ;) so on a trip to north Queensland i went to a wildlife park Billibong sanctuary nr Townsville. Prior to going i had a couple of beers to steady the nerves ::) and bottom line i faced the biggest unnatural fear i had ;D i handled several snakes and got a bit confident and tried to bend one the wrong way ::) the keeper near tore me a new one and explained that they aint toys and although they aint venomous they can bite a fair chunk out of you .
Point is most people have a fear of something or another and snakes were mine . Facing the fear head on was very empowering and i recomend anybody to step up and face your fear head on . Now i just have to work on big jumps and jealous husbands and im sorted ;D

:D there inlies your mistake..you should of booked a day with young Bindi ;D
-
nice day here but crap at the same time,bit overcast but still very warm good day, the crap part got my bike out to go riding and discoverd it had a flat rear no spare tube= no riding :'(.now sitting down watching the touring car masters replay from the gold coast all the old gt's, mustangs , hq's and some other oldskool stuff ;D.
on snakes got attacked by of all things the most placid snake of all a green tree snake a couple of weeks ago while riding.he was soaking up the warmth on a hard clay track and i startled him he had three goes at my bike as i went past him i was only riding at walking speed.looks like a brown in vmx247's photo wouldn't like to be that close to one of them.cheers

Not sure Bindi is Bill's type. Anyway I have had an awesome day, picked up small mountain of 74 KX250 parts and didn't have to pay stupid $$$$ .... does Bill still have a pulse.
-
And people think Firkos at Mr VMX we know hes with his love child Bindi
-
Yea thanks Marc ,Bindis more DJs thing ;)
Pulse Still beating here brother :) pleased you scored some parts 8) always a good day when a deal goes the way you want it to ;D
Im just getting my KXs ready for the VMX series :) missed the 1st rd due to date changes and a prior appointment ::)
My 74 is a bit redundant here now as they call the Class Classics not pre 75 and 76 KXs are considered classics :-\ I prefer the true pre 75 rule as run in Aussie but hey im just happy somone else is putting on the events ;)
I will ride my 74 at the Classic scamble club events in Auckland , until the Metisse arrives then i might have to relocate it and one of my 74 KX125s to Qld for the Aussie titles next year :)
-
Was a crap day, waited 3 months for BJ racing to get me longer shock ends for the Falcons and they sent wrong (way to small) eyes = Bugger
Quick blat in the Mustang,home for B/que and brew saved the day.
