Nearly Got Shot Night Baiku...

[Lid]

On a small island off the coast of Vancouver we decided to ignore the Keep Out signs, climb the fence and scoot around the burnt out truck road block. We then rode right into the camp of some drug dealers cooking up a brew of something or other.
The Dudes were not very happy...."You went around the signs? And over the fence?" "Uh yes sir we did"
The sight of five sh*t scarred guys wearing lycra ammused them enough to let us go.
Keep Out signs really freak me out.

hope the bits you missed out weren't deliverence-esque... :shock:

Sit on the train home dreading the impending Tesco food run

Now there's your first mistake... These days it's much more efficient, vastly less stressful and in most cases cheaper, to let Tesco take the food to you instead

yeah started this as an idea, but they kept delivering stuff with one day or same day on the date stamps and the whole point of a weekly shop was lost.



Answer...have a waitrose nearby instead. Worth the extra 10% cost not to put up with the big T natives.

That reminds me of a ride I went on, on my own in Hampshire quite a few years ago on MOD land; got to the top of the hill, nice and peaceful, but just had a strange feeling...

..after a couple of min's spotted about 40 guys in cammo lying on the floor in the trees all around me with rifles poised!

I reckon that had to be my fastest downhill, and possibly the only time I've got home quicker than I got there!!

The end of easy ridder kept going through my head. At the camp ground in the evening they were very generous with there beer !
