Just had the April edition of the RIDE magazine delivered and there's a whole lot about Monsters this month & all the older versions. Front Cover main article etc.

Maybe there'll be a bunch of new members in the not too distant future ?

I know it's February, but try telling that to the Magazines. They're always two months in front for some reason ???

My copy arrived early because I've got a subscription.

This was the article that Ride contacted me about but having provided some information, they seemed to change the article.

My theory is that the mags can then sit on the shelf for over two months and still remain in-date, therefore being much more likely to sell.

Now that's 'proper' hanging off in your avatar YoungDuc.
I can only dream of that for now.

Being a paraglider pilot I love thermals, just not the sort they're on about. Roll on spring.

Read it today at one of my favourite libaries....good ol' WHSmith.

Was interesting to read the 695 is, in their opinion, the most fun out of the lot to ride. I can't comment, as I've only ridden the 620ie but I guess like many of the 600s, it's a great all rounder.

Is that for some sort of medical condition? :confused:
I wonder if my doctor will prescribe me a few mags if I tell him I've got a slight flatulent problem.:)

...has got very little to do with it, you're both way too upright.
Ar$e as far back in the seat as you can get it, shoulder on the petrol cap, spine parallel with the bike's centreline, get your braking done and then gently push the inside bar away from the corner.

...Then you too can go barrelling down the tarmac on your arse...sorry slob - i'll get my coat !!

yeah... next time 'ol massive noggin's starter motor dies, he'll be pushing his own 748 up the pitlane to bump it... apart from that fairly accurate! although I figure 2 offs in 15 trackdays over 3 years isn't too bad.

It's not trouble you smell, it was me. They're strong enough to travel via the net at times.

I can't remember now.:confused: I've had it saved in a Word doc. for a little while. I read it somewhere on the net.

The full version reads:-

Political Correctness is best defined as a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a deposit of faeces - by the clean end!........But I can't fit the full version in the sig, and had to cut it down.
