Re: Depression
“Yes, I know I’ve got all these advantages, things, money, support, love etc, so I shouldn’t feel this awful…. But I still do. What’s WRONG with me?” This is a "hit the nail right on the head" comment that fits me to a tee You could have all the riches of the world and still be miserable,...

Re: Long Way Home
Liked the first two, the Long Way Up was a bit shite, jumped on the electric bike thing a bit too hard, at least this might be a bit more interesting using old bikes

Re: Who needs a 1200cc ADV?
The instructor who did my CBT had a GS 1200, he showed us the difference between getting the CB125F off the center stand and his BMW, the Beemer took a more gymnastic approach with a sprinkling of good luck and magic - Nice bikes, must be great tourers, but practicality as offroad bikes for grand to...

Re: Depression
Taking a day off work tomorrow, been needing one for a long time and just want a day to do stuff that I want to do rather then having to negotiate the time at the weekend. So hopefully go for a cycle in the morning then take a leisurely mooch around the local bike and guitar shops. Also got some vit...

Does anyone here not ride, or not ride anymore?
Just curious as to why people maybe don't ride or gave it up? I don't, always wanted to, something always got in the way (parents, money, wife, money, kid) - now I can finally, my 10 year old has laid on the guilt trip quite heavily and my poor ADHD rattled mind is continuing to go back and forth on...

Re: Depression
Thing is, IMO, people make the wrong life choices when they are young then when they get to middle age they regret them and try and counter act them by suddenly changing the way they live their lives which stresses the body and causes even further issues. Unfortunately you reap what you so, you can...

Re: Depression
I'm sure it's just the time of year, but by golly I am in a pit of depression at the moment. Been on Sertraline for a few months, upped the dose in October. Cannot get excited about anything. Interest in everything has gone completely, mindlessly watch YouTube videos looking for something to inspire...

I thought the ADV bike looks a bit KTM front with Triumph Tiger 660 rear, that might just be me

Re: 2023 HONDA GL1800 GOLD WING TOUR
My dad has had a couple of Gold Wings, joined an owners club, never met a bunch of people that were so unlikable as them. Ended up there being a turf war between a couple of members that ended up with bikes being trashed. Out of the bikes he had the only one that appealed to me was the mk1 - Pre gub...

Glastonbury could have it's own thread called "340 quid for that pile of shite?" Thank god for I-player though, they've actually put up some not bad stuff without the hassle of actually having to go. Going to watch the Sparks set later and the Rick Astley sets were really quite good, espec...

That's surely not an official render. It has a 750 Hornet tank & pillion footrests from the current XSR900. "HONDA New CB1000R. The image is the expected CG of the editorial department" From under the second pic, which to me says it's about as confirmed as when Autocar puts on the fro...

Haha....I was at that show, the one where Dave Grohl was on a throne with a broken leg? I thought it was good, the one they did at the bowl a few years before that was brilliant. It was the one a few years before. I was there with 3 guys who were just trying to "out alpha" each other and ...

Re: LONDON CALLING: 40 IMAGES FROM THE BIKE SHED SHOW
Foo Fighters started as one guy (albeit a guy already in an internationally mega-famous band :lol: ) making tapes in his garage. He played all the instruments on his first album and every album they've done is original music, played themselves, with no associated TV talent show. They've even record...
