Well its that time of year again , finally the sun it out so the Bimota can break out of its winter slumber after a good check over , new tyres fitted to the rims, and time for a few road mile before the annual pilgrimage to the Isle of Mann .
Who is going this year ??? |

Hi Steve, Ferry was booked last year, Thursday to Wednesday, should be a good one. I have to drop a stove off in Didsbury of Friday around 18:00 will you be in? I have that DT speedo and the facia swapped Koso clock for you. Do you want the taco albeit without temp gauge

Very rare items in the UK nowadays....very few milkmen that make daily deliveries.....the large supermarkets got together and halved the price of milk to the consumer...wiping out daily deliveries....handy items for a motocross pop up pit stand.... |

Hi Steve and apologies to Stuart, I realised my mistake only after it was posted.
With regards to the "Milk Crate" it was a pop up motocross stand we were talking about. However it was thrown out a couple of years ago my son informs me. Alzheimers I guess, best start being careful I am not on the list of things to be thrown out??

Vdue Vdue....revisit 2 No. on the isle of Man...you know it makes sense...although JRH has stopped short of saying "3 of US" on stinkwheels...and from recollection only his Vdue fits that mantra within his stable???........ |
