belfastguzzi Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 It's only something like 7 days until Spring and it's 99 days until Summer And It's 69 Days Until Holiday Time It doesn't seem long since it was 200 days, when I first put up the other web pages.

ferguzzi Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Looks like, I'll make it after all as my roster has been changed. I won't know for definite which days until the 15april, and if it's not too late I'll book a dorm bed then. Also ,a neighbour of mine has said he wouldn't mind coming along, he's on a bandit so can't talk guzzi, but he is a motor electrician, so might come in handy!

tikkanen Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Hi again, I promised I would get back ASAP regarding my participation in Ulster Rally. Unfortunately I won't be able to make it this year as I cannot justify taking a week of at present (nor in May). I'm up to my ears both at work and home so no Søren Tikkanen in Ulster this year, unfortunately. However, I'm still keen to arrange next years V11 rally. This may not - repeat may not - take place in Denmark, as me and wifey probably will move to Switzerland for good later this year. She has been offered a very lucrative job in her organisation which means that we physically have to move to La Belle Suisse. And me? Oh, I thought you'll never ask. I'll retire and will fart around learning French, eating chokolates and playing my Swiss alphorn all day. And a little touring around the country of course. France is just an hour away and Italy can be reached in an hour and a half. Living la dolce vita! More to come..... BR Søren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belfastguzzi Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Foiled again, in my attempt to go to Barholm and meet Will about the accommodation. I arranged to meet him early Saturday morning. I got up and came downstairs at 7.30am. Then I saw that we had been burgled and the car was stolen too. Loads of stuff gone including 2 laptops (so I wasn't on the Forum here over the weekend!) some irreplaceable things like a special edition Fender guitar plus of course all the info on the computers. Motorbike keys gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belfastguzzi Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Crap... all the stolen stuff can be replaced, but the thought that criminals were in your house while you were asleep is frightening at the least. Yeah, not so nice. Losing the stuff on the laptops is a pain as some things are backed up but not everything, particularly on my wife's computer and I'm annoyed about the special edition guitar. Keys for all the motorbikes went. I kinda wish that the Griso itself was taken, to get around the cam/tappets issue. Even when the tappets are replaced I'm always going to be uneasy that the pulverised metal from the damaged items has or will cause some further wear and tear or even catastrophy. In what's virtually just a new engine too. Well, at least it will have some nice shiny new locks and keys. I think insurance is going to be a bit of a battle. I'd like to replace the Arai helmet and other bits of bike gear that were taken from the house hallway, but the house contents insurers say (initially anyway) that they are 'motorbike accessories' and they don't cover them. The bike insurance says they are 'personal effects' – and they don't cover them... With the Guzzis all broken, I thought I might end up at the May meeting in a car. Er... will you let me go on a bicycle now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
