That whole seat design looks iffy to more. Looks like it'd push all your weight into..erm, well, the wrong place. A seat should distribute the weight OVER a decent area. Yours looks like it'll push the weight INTO one area. If its always been like that and this has happened since you've got it, I'd be looking to swap it out. Either that its some foam and bungees or a Piles Cushion Bitsa... Facepalm emoticon Laughing emoticon

what are you doing with your arse on the seat?
That style of scooter needs you leaning forward, feet well back with your nads taking all of your weight on the very tip of the seat. Get your head well tucked down behind that headset. 'uck's sake Bitza. Thought you knew how to ride a scooter!

Been gone too and so glad you weren't hurt and Watson took the brunt like the gentlemen he is. Get the most out of them as you can. Liars deserve that. BITSA when will you get the t5 back? Air hawk seat cover might help.Good luck to both of you

Trepp and Judy

I don't know yet, chucks

I had a letter from the police asking me to fill a few forms in

That goes back and they then look to see whether there will be a prosecution - or offer the driver a course to avoid going to court

Let's see

I'd rather he learns what to look out for and develops his (bad) driving than any formal punishment, but much depends on him and his response

Next meets are Bedford on 7 July but Kitty's on family duties, then 4 August London when I'm on family duties. Doh! CopEcat will take a while to collect all the Skok Top Trumps Trepp is in Picadilly sometime early August, so would be great if you could organise a midweek Pizza night? With a bit of notice I'd ride down...especially if there was cake
