So, loads of people are having issues with this as per a search or two on the WordPress forums, and I found myself in the same boat. Check it out - I found a fix 🙂

I inserted the wp_categories table from my backups and then ran the sql query I found here:

UPDATE wp_term_taxonomy, wp_categories 
SET description = cat_name 
WHERE term_id = cat_ID;

UPDATE wp_terms, wp_categories 
SET name = cat_name, slug = category_nicename 
WHERE term_id = cat_ID;

Well, my motorbike’s in for repairs. The girl that hit it at work decided that insurance (or telling her dad) wasn’t the way to go and has agreed to pay in cash. I dropped it off to Silver Star yesterday, the first time I’ve let anyone else touch it… can’t wait to get it back sans rattles 🙂

I knew it would happen, but I was hoping it wouldn’t happen soon… My bike got reversed into tonight by some silly little blonde girl in a Rav4.

It got knocked over onto its left side, scractching the clutch cover, the bar end and muffler. It seems that she’d run straight into the right hand indicator, smashing that and scratching the fairings around it.

The worst part of it all - it looks like the bolt that holds most of the right hand fairing on has snapped out of the mounting in the frame (the mount failed, not the bolt - worse) so that’s going to be a right pain in the ass to fix :S

I figured I should have checked the tyre pressures on the way home from purchasing the bike, but as usual with these sorts of things I was a lazy dick. I checked ’em today with a cheapass digital tyre pressure gauge I bought from Supercheap Auto and found they were at about half of what they were supposed to be - 22 / 27 front/back instead of 36 / 41!

Pretty awesome site this one - very simple and very succinct. 🙂

I’m thinking I might hit up this route one day soon - maybe even Saturday if I don’t get completely wasted by working a Friday night with this stupid ass cold. Hopefully the weather will warm up a tad, or at least leave the rain out of it so I can jam on some thermals and enjoy the ride instead of losing feeling in my legs again 🙁

Sa-weeeeeeeeet. I collected my bike today, paying my money and getting the bike. You know how it works.

Everything went relatively smoothly except for the light rain starting just as we left to go do it. Riding back was a fun experience, finding out on the fly how the bike rode and where all the controls were 😛

I took it out for a ride tonight (yay rain) and I think it needs a damn good tune but otherwise seems sound. Time and inspections by mates will tell 😉

I completed my Q-RIDE course with TeamMoto yesterday. So much fun, and because I started it before the 1st of July 2008, I got to get my full open bike license in a three day (one day every two weeks, due to work/etc) couse 🙂

As shown above, I look like a clown and have an R class Queensland license - allowing for an unrestricted engine sized motorbike 🙂
