I had no idea how bad it could be!

Post by RAINMAKER »

Can't belive how hard it is to be without a bike.......way things are going its going to be next year before I'm back on two wheels.........and now the house is going to be stripped due to the flooding.

No water in the house but its been sucked up through the floor and walls.
Once the house is stripped about four months drying time before re-build.

Gosh how I miss the bikes..............and you lot..........

Paul
it may be clever, but its not big.

Chin up mate!
Try to look on the bright side.
If the house is that wet maybe you could start your own mushroom farm in the front living room to speed up the income coming in for your next bike :wink:

Good luck Paul

My own fault for bashing the plastic too often............still lesson learnt is that despite tryoing loads of different bikes.........BMW, GSXR1000, Harley.............the only thing I want is another firestorm..........guess that says it all.

next year I'll be back..........this year if I get lucky.........saving pocket money already.............and willing to sell my body too......... :roll:

I know you're not the first to say that Paul and probably not the last, but at least you're man enough to admit it mate :wink:

Well I joined the no bike club a week ago.
I can't get used to the empty space in the garage and the fact that even though I was not riding the bike much it was still there if I wanted to and now it's not :?
