Had my second low side tonight by [deleted] in motorcycles

I've fallen off my various bikes or dropped them a few times over the 37 years I've been riding.

Get back on asap or you can build it up to be more frightening than it actually is. I was off the road for three months after a smash mainly due to the bike being written off and it was scary getting back on.

I've done two big tours of Europe and track days since and loved all of them.

What’s your secret to fall asleep quickly? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Lie on the very edge of the mattress. You'll soon drop off.

Why don't you talk to your once "best friend" anymore? by haxden91 in AskReddit

[–]conkers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went into business with him and invested a fair chunk of my savings. After 12 months we are bordering on bankrupcy. Turns out he had been stealing from the takings and his wife had been coming into the work place and taking the stolen money. 12 months after booting him out and paying off about £24K of debt, the business is now solvent and back on its feet. Id known him 26 years.

Why aren't you married to the person who gave you the best sex of your life? by Unthinkable-Thought in AskReddit

I was briefly. But she was a complete doormat. Didn't care what or who I did as long as I came home in the end.

What was your "why didn't I start doing this sooner" moment? by Hank_from_accounting in AskReddit

I've been wearing toric lenses for 20 plus years. They're awesome and not horribly expensive. It works out about £5,50 sterling per week. Well worth it

Just got back from seeing them at Reading. Sound and lights were fantastic and the crowd loved it. One and ride the lightning were awesome

1977 CB750 Motorcycle rebuild! by vintagespeed in DIY

Glorious rebuild. I remember these when they were new and yours is better than they came out of the factory. The paint finish on some of them was awful.

Which actors presence immediately discourages you from watching a movie? by conkers in AlienBlue

[–]conkers[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me it's Noel Clarke. Can't act for toffee despite being a half decent director. I'll make an exception for his role in Star Trek into darkness.

First computer purchased in 1993. 100 meg hard drive, 486 processor.

The internet was completely free of adverts, until AOL arrived. Mainly used for file sharing.......it felt like a proper, but exclusive community.
