Welcome Spring 2010! Finally the weather is picking up a bit, you can tell how long it is since I’ve seen the sun judging by the fact that I am impressed with partially cloudy days with 5C (45F) temperatures. I’ve written a review of my Teknic Defender boots but am waiting until tomorrow to take some pictures for my upload. I’ve put about 8500 miles on them in less than a year so I have a pretty good feel of how they are. Great boots to sum up but more on that tomorrow.

To welcome in Spring (and to discuss manly things) me and a couple of friends had a little get together last night (I know it was a Sunday haha). Absinthe was drank, Whiskey was drank, Gin was drank and a good time was had by all! This was exceptionally strange for me as I don’t really drink that often, and when I do it is spirits as I like the taste better, even still though it was a pleasant experience. We were discussing our upcoming trip to Amsterdam, finances and all the usual guy talk which doesn’t really need to be elaborated here.

70% Absinthe is not recommended for a beginner.

As well as this I found this very strange and slightly offensive picture in a clothing catalogue the other day:

What an insult! If that is the “biker” look then I suppose I’ll have to buy a car. Not… likely. On crisp clear days like today where the roads are nice and dry there is nothing better than hooning around on your bike coming home from work. While I was looking through the catalogue’s surprisingly small Men’s section I noticed that there were loads of pictures where male models were wearing tatty “poser” clothes while sat on various run down bikes. Odd? From personal experience motorcycles are not that big of a sex magnet (to most women). It must be the type of bike I ride because judging by the catalogue a worn looking 09 Kawasaki KLX 250 is THE ULTIMATE PUSSY MAGNET! I like the KLX, it’s a great bike but it’s not the bike you pick to impress the ladies, they don’t really go for helmet hair anyway haha.

I’ll upload the review tomorrow if I get chance but it will be up shortly if not. Follow me on Twitter and stay safe my compadres.
