Wise bloke my dad! :D
Very wise. Like that a lot.
My dad told me "always wash yourself in the shower top to bottom and front to back.

That way, although you might get pubic dandruff, you'll never get athlete's rock".

Wise man. my dad.



Died of athlete's rock ten years back now, I can never think of him except naked in the shower doing handstands, the showoff.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

I read it as 'we are going to increase the tax on bikes and not ask the manufacturers now or in the future to provide CO2 emmisions data'
I've just had another read and I think that you are pretty much spot on Jim :!:

It really annoys me. The manufactureres could supply that data at the drop of a hat, in fact they probably already know its as they would use it during the engine test phase. The roads are getting busier and bikes might be the way forward in reducing conjestion. I am not talking sunday superbikes :biggrin but the commuter type of 2 wheeled transport.
I see myself as a sensitive intelligent man but with the heart of a clown that causes me to **ck things up right at that crucial moment........'Jim Morrison'
