Spring is almost here, and I have a massive backlog.

That ugly 1983 rd 80 mx is my latest arrival, and more my style, I restore bikes from start to finish on my own. I strip them, I paint them, I repair the engines, and the buck stops with me with regards to any mistakes. I keep most of them, some I sell to close friends or good repeat buyers at a discount, as they come back for more, every time.

Here is the last one of these I did, though a 1983 France only market bike with pedals and no gears, weird uh!.

Before.

After.

I have a long list of motorbikes "to do" also.

I have my Aprilia rs 250 to service and use this year. I have a Suzuki gt 125 twin from 1983 that I need to put back on the road, a Yamaha rd 350 ypvs 1985 that I have not finished. I have the Husaberg fe 400 to complete. this WSK classic racing bike to finish below.

I counted them today.

And I have 47 motorbikes in various states of restoration, yes 47. I have a 4 bedroom bungalow half full of them, and no we do not live in it. I have a workshop with 8 in it, 2 garages and 2 barns both stacked full of bikes and parts too.

I also have a collection of mint - as new classics stored under a local bank with 24 hour security, these are not counted in the 47 total, the 47 are "to do" you see.

My decision to leave here is not out of rage, and in no way angry or directed at anyone on here. It is simply a case of I have far too much to do in that weird and wonderful real world outside. Anyone wanting to start life on here or upgrade to reputation 69.8 can contact me via my wallet, follow through with a payment of 0.5 btc and take this account on today!....

If you want a fairly large collection of steem monsters also, they are also for sale for the whole collection not just singles.

Here is the bike I am preparing for spring today, as I feel it time to ride a few like I stole em whilst I am still young enough to enjoy doing that.

I also grow a lot of food for the local community.

Having found myself in a strange country by choice, I chose to buy a large amount of land. Rather than turn into a full time farmer, something this city boy knows nothing about. I let the local community use our land to grow food. For free. Having lived in the UK, and seen how people move there to abuse the benefits system and take, take, take. I decided because I can to give something back, to the locals, because I can. There is no value in takers, there is value in helping others help themselves, in my eyes anyway.

Doing this also takes a massive chunk of my time, as does cutting bloody grass, I get sick of the sight of it at times, and let the local farmers graze here for free. That though leaves me manure to clean up, though that is superb for the soil you see.

No rage quitter here, just a guy who is going to be incredibly busy, and has no time to write for 60 cents a post, it is simply not worth my time.
Most people care not about what I write about anyway, so I doubt I will be missed all the same. Any takers on this account?????

@shepz1 wishes each and every one of you a superb weekend and week ahead.
