  1. Got home last night after a bloody good ride. Another excellent get together,still laughing!You are a great bunch of nutcases.. Well done David and thanks for everything! Anybody want a jellybaby.....?
  2. AAAAAAArgh!!!!!!! 44 pages!!!! Get off the keyboard and just ride the bloody things!!
  3. Nice work David!! I,ve booked my room.Is it May yet?
  4. Hmmm.V11 riders knocking a bike for not having enough power eh?I've had loads of fun on all manner of gutless bikes,from Bantams and MZs to old Brit shite.How much power does an old Morini 350 have? As Guy says the price is its real handicap.
  5. Very little! People dont tan up here ,they weather...(or rust)
  6. Thats a nice New Imperial. I had one until a couple of years ago,still regret selling it. 1937 . 500 twinport sloper,similar to the one in the pic but mine didnt have the sprung frame. Very advanced for the time,unit construction,double helical gear primary drive.Mine wasnt as shiny as that though....
  7. Crikey! I'm either brave or stupid. Serviced,new tyres and buggered off for 4000 miles... Shift spring broke before next trip, replaced it ,popped a new one in the toolkit and off again...
  8. Erm...Are these events "worldwide" as in "world series"??
  9. AAh! My beautiful homeland!Hi Pasotibbs, I'm a Barnsley boy,was a miner,then drove trucks for Ernest Thorpe.(among other things)... Self imposed exile here to get some distance from the two ex wives.....
  10. Really Sad. Unique guitar style,unique vocals,brilliant songs.A great loss. I'd rather be the Devil,he sang....and lived.
  11. Hi David. I will arrive in NI on the Monday after race weekend.I sent you a PM.(Is it May yet..?)
  12. I can't make the NW 200 week unfortunately,but will be in NI the week before our meet
  13. That looks great,David,and the bike sounds mighty fine too! Is it May yet?
  14. ...and you tried running the Guzzi on alternative fuel,right?
  15. Glad you made it home safe.Have a cool Yule!See you in May?
  16. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/...amborghini.htmlDont think a Guzzi could outrun this....
  17. +1 on the Altbergs.Bought mine from the factory a few years ago.Comfortable on and off the bike ,waterproof and also good for hiking.
  18. I'm happy with a dorm or shared room for the Friday,Saturday and Sunday nights. Trying to get the race week and the week after off work to make a proper holiday of it. (I didnt get away this summer due to health problems-dammit!!)
  19. Oh lord. What can anyone say at a time like this?Its just words. R.I.P. Gyles. My thoughts are with your family.
