It has to come out, that even my parents have gotten Bimota fever:



Unfortunarely, I have to admit it's not theirs Sad
where would they put their shopping?
It's not anybody's here either,
but I love the pic.

I think the last time dad rode a bike was his 1936 Velocette MAC, back in the 50s.

Mum went on a bike for the first time in her life, when I took her around Rome on the back of my Hawk on her 80th birthday trip. Lucky girl Smile
No it must have been her 70th, she can't possibly be that old . . .

I've told them to grab the keys next time one turns up.

the owner/maker of the pipes will take orders for both models of pipes if anybody is interested- around 250 GBP in some sort of aerospace Kryptonite.

tax disc too,

yes I grew up about 30 miles from you in the cuddly little town of Saffron Walden, know as 'suffering boredom'.
But this is a bit further away now in Bromsgrove, of all places.
