BoSM Accommodation? - I don't do camping :) Do you know of any guest houses or hotels that feature secure parking for the the night of the 9th? (Is anyone likely to want to pinch an ER-5?) I'm looking at somewhere in Ashbourne at the moment, some mock tudor thing -..

I'm toying with the idea of taking the 250 instead of the 10R. Does
anyone want to influence the decision making process by reserving a go
on it on the Sunday morning?

Champ saying he wants a go will push me towards taking the 10R.

I shall be taking the Guzzi although predicting whether that weekend will
be free is a bit tricky.

If it is and if I'm there those who want to experience a proper bike can.

By proper bike I mean unrefined, alarmingly noisy, surprisingly small and
slow. A bit windy too.

I might well take you up on that.

If you make it up there I'll make you laugh by telling you about a
job I've done recently where the customer would have had an absolute
fit if they'd known who the cunt was that fixed their piece of wanked
out old rubbish.

Heh. I'm not stupid enough to be caught like that twice. The best bit
was that they filmed some of the work being carried out but I wasn't
wearing overalls with my name on them Smile

Well, if I take my 10R that means anyone who wants their eyeballs
permanently enlarged can have a go on mine.

Mind you, I could take the turbo. Decisions, decisions.

The only way I could describe riding that Guzzi is that it's like playing
leapfrog with someone who has really bad Parkinsons.

Yeah, cos "fixed by skeletor" doesn't narrow it down.

You've made a valid point there but the people in question never knew
what the subject of their hatred looked like.

Not entirely sure I get that but if it helps Daz described following it
as "worrying" because "the shapes it makes are not right".

I'm /normally/ quite good with surreal imagery but unfortunately ...
