I passed my bike test. About time really. I then went out an bought a bike, a blue bike. (An American imnport 1999 Suzuki SV650 if you care) The day I bought it I went out for a wee ride with a mate with years of experience etc. I crashed, lost it in high winds on an overpass. Bikes ok though couple of minor things...

Aw shit man...life is hard. rip that beautiful guy, and im not even qualified to have an oppinion. u n dan look after one another. x
Soo yeah I failed my test. Failed for not looking over my shoulder enough. You believe that? Why do I have wing mirrors if I still have to look over my shoulder? Only 8 minor faults though, no majors. That's a pass mark by the way, but alas it was not to be. I've booked another one in Dec and this time I'll drive backwards!...

They were ace. The guitarist is mad, and I loved the fact that the lead singer just kept wasting her cigarettes - she'd take like one drag and just let it burn down. I thought the lead singer of the support band was incredibly hot. She has this whole confidence thing going on which is very enticing. Do you know what that band was called? Sorry to hear about your bike test. Testers are bastards. Although your day could have been worse, the Detroit Cobras could have been cancelled like the goddamn International Noise Conspiracy are tonight. Grrr x
Back to work today, it's boring, easy, and i had quite a good day. Still need another job though.
Ten days off, what did I do... Went to see the Tiger Lillies, that was good.
Did a days motorcycle training I didn't need to, that was a waste of money.
Went to Portsmouth for no good reason and for no length of time. Fun though....

Are you going to see the Cobras on Thursday? Me too.
Ease in the choke, listen to the engine change tone and tempo. Quick look over your shoulder, ease off the clutch, ease back the throttle and slip on in.
Twisting your right hand and squeezing out with your left, flicking up through the gears and your off with a rumble.
Lights change, amber, red. Squeeze the brakes gently, cars lined up, slow down and weave....

Sometimes I wonder about my sanity, or maybe my IQ.
I've not lived at home for four years but I still (now and then) open the refrigerator and expect to see food. Ususally all I see is two small pieces of chocolate and some feta cheese.
When am I gonna learn that my mother doesn't do the shopping anymore and that if I don't buy...

And I still call my parents house "home" I notice.
It don't mean nothing. drive on.

I just got back from Glasgow yesterday and christ I felt like I walked the whole way by the time I got back.
Had an excellent time, which is new for me, usually I'm too stressed, running around trying to see people and still say hello to my folks. But this time it was all good.
Now, time to recover.

So, today my little drooges is the day my new computer arrives.
Well it'd better or I'll climb the nearest clock tower and through rotten fruit.
I took the day off work yesterday and did nothing useful or productive. Except watch some duckman.

If I get through this week without killing someone, I swear to god I'm gonna dance a jig.
Yeah, so what if even cowgirls get the blues!?!
Cowboys started it, and never recovered from the hangover.
Ever notice the things you do when your blue hardly ever make you feel better?
You drink a fifth of bourbon at seven in the a.m. and all that happens is you get drunk and find yourself typing into a computer. As if it were some sort...

meh, it works just as well for that too, and it's a fucking good word.

Good words can be hard to find, if like me you have trouble spelling your own name at times.

Friday morning, you've just got to sleep but you have to get up! Got a bus to catch.
Eight hours spent watching cows go by at 70mph, in a seat desinged with your discomfort in mind.
Glasgow hasn't changed, beneath all the new facades it's still your ugly sister with a fetish for knifes and dangerous boyfriends.
No one has left the old town, they...

Well, it's been a fun filled few days, with ups, downs, turn arounds and people going a whole lot and not a little bit mad.
Quiting their jobs, shaving their heads and running off into the night to find a doctor with connections.
There were burlesque dancers (a dime a dozen) pasties and a g-string. There were Vincent Razorbacks playing Rock n' Roll from a...

Welcome to SGMC!
Please post your bike in Pix of my bike and introduce yourself to the gang in theNew Member Intros topic.
I like Thompson's version best, too. But the bluegrass is a neat difference.
In most of the USA, getting a license is stupid easy. Here in Connecticut, anything under 50cc's with a max speed under 40mph requires no license. Anything larger requires a multiple-choice computer test and an on-bike exam consisting of a start, an upshift, a downshift a stop a left turn from a stop, a few figure-eights and a rolling right turn. All done in a lot behind the motor vehicle office. A state trooper barks commands like a drill sergeant trying to fluster you, but that's it. You can take the test on a 125cc trailbike, then go buy a Hayabusa. Most states are similar. Washington is the only state I've lived with tougher licensing requirements, and the only state that won't honor your home state's motorcycle license if you relocate there and have to change your driver's license.
