Nice one Tim! :D

let the summer weather be nice down England way (not too nice! I want some of it to use the Cappuccino up my way. ;)). Honestly once you've had a fantastic day driving with the roof down, you'll always want to do it when theres a faint glimp's of the sun! :lol:

And3rs · April 27, 2015

Or in the middle of the winter with lots of snow :lol: Been there done that

calster17 · April 27, 2015

I Attempted to do that in the Cappuccino...

Typicle Scottish weather happened in that it was perfect sunshine when i started the trip and by the halfway point we got heavy snow. :lol:

Carried on the trip until i found a petrol station for cover (20 mils down the road) as it takes up to 5 mins to put the roof back on the car!

Thats a point, sure you'll be fine but be careful the first time there's heavy rain or snow and your out in the car Tim! light weight RWD cars can be rather....fun in that way! :lol:

And3rs · April 27, 2015

5 minutes?! On mine it takes 12 seconds, can be done while driving. With some practise Tim can do it in three seconds :)

It can be rather fun indeed! I press and hold the DCS off button every single time I start the car by habit :lol:

I remember Me™ saying how on his he could just reach back and pull it up with just his left hand on his NB MX5! :lol:L

Sadly the Cappuccino's roof has 4 parts...it's T-bar, Targa or full drop top. Panels for the roof fit in the boot (taking away 90% of what little boot space you had!) and the rear window/rollover hoop slides down behind the seat's! Clever but a pain to do!

DSC? Cappuccino has no driving aides what so ever! Fun and scary when you keep in mind it weights the same as a bag of sugar, rev's up to 10.5k RPM and is smaller than an original mini! :eek:

But Let's keep the topic back on hand! :D

i finally got round to getting this after like 7 months...

bonus points if you know what car in my 'fleet' it's for! :lol:

You know I've had my Evo over a year now and it's not snowed ONCE! :(

Damn south east england weather, can't make it's mind up...

Wanna swap cars?

I forget who has access to stuff such as my FB & SC! :eek:

But yes, finally getting round to getting it MOT'd again (only 7 months after she failed...)! :lol:

You don't want our weather, Sunday just gone we really lived up to the whole "4 seasons in 1 day", when it started with heavy wind, died down to give clean blue sky's and sun, only to rain and then by 6pm it started to snow...heavy snow! :lol:

But if you want, make a driving trip up here for the roads! You'll give yourself and the car a good workout! :D

I hear they sell scooters?

calster17 · April 29, 2015

Somebody bought a Triple R?!? :D

Ryzza5 · April 29, 2015

The mirrors are completely useless! They show a small portion of road next to my rear tyre, and I can't adjust them upwards any further. I don't know how Twitter works but I think I've sent @officialTriumph a [brief] 'what on earth were you guys thinking!?' complaint.

BeSweeet · April 29, 2015

I looked at @officialTriumph's replies, and didn't see anything like that. Not sure if you tweeted them properly :D.

Ryzza5 · April 29, 2015

I clicked the button 'send xxx a tweet' and typed in my 140 chars. It ended up in my feed but not theirs.

If you want everyone to see your tweet, don’t start it with an @ symbol.
Twitter assumes, almost always correctly, that the intention with @ tweets is for a direct conversation with another user, and so it treats those tweets as if they are to be private. Only the person tweeting, the person being tweeted at, and those who follow both accounts will see the tweets in their streams.

Ah, so it should be fine, for you (and everyone else) to see it I should have put @officialTriumph at the end of the message.

BeSweeet · April 30, 2015

Most people just put a period at the very beginning of a tweet so that it's viewable by everyone, regardless of if they're following the account you're replying to.

nice scooter ryan!

seriously though I'm waitng for go-pro vids of that.

Ryzza5 · April 30, 2015

Yeah, I still haven't edited a group ride from 12 months ago.... and still on the GoPro HD 1... GP4 is good but it's still a pain to use on a bike unless you're doing it all the time. I'm interested in the Sena camera but waiting for a v2 hoping they fix a few things.

In the meantime

One of these

Given I planned to upgrade to Windows 10 on release anyway, I'll just install the latest Insider Preview build. Now that I have some time I'm also interested in trying to dual-boot into OSX again.
