    if you think and worry about this sort of thing, i'd say bad luck is more likely to find you :)

    just another day on the calendar to me - and happily enough, didnt catch a drop of rain on the way in

    was pretty lucky myself this morning with a gap in the rain, took waterproofs off the other day and I cant for the life of me find them! Got in nice and dry... dont have much hope for getting home dry tho!!!

    The most unlucky thing so far is still being in my winter gloves, the summer gloves were out for a week then back in their box.

    In south of France atm.

    Forgot to put sun cream on my neck. Got a nice red line where there is a gap between helmet and jacket. Dam you Friday 13th. Haha.

    I thought all motorcyclists where already paranoid? After all, those cage drivers really are out to kill us.

    Passed my test today! :D So no, not paranoid at all.

    In fact, I think I'll celebrate with a Euromillions ticket.

    My nephew passed his A bike test today with Airport School of Motoring.

    He got a clean pass using their BMW G650 bike that he hired out from Airport School,he flew through the test no marks at all.

    5 weeks was all he had to wait for the test.

    Friday 13th was lucky for him.To say hes delighted,is an understatement.

    Oh and thanks to Airport School too,for the bike and helping him to pass.

    I took delivery of my new (to me) bike today! It needs to be lowered, but I can't blame Fri 13th for that :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 183 ✭✭Pipz


    Not superstitious, but today wasn't a good day, so maybe I should be? lol

    Crashed my car into a wall, complete write-off.
    Went to borrow my boyfriends car, keys got locked in the car, spent an hour trying to break into the thing without damaging it.
    Tried to tax my boyfriends car so I could drive, they wouldn't let me.
    Went to view another car, engine was fooked.

    Think I'll just go back to bed...

    Yesterday was the first day I didn't use the bike in ages. Not superstitious, just had nowhere to go!
