  1. Always the same approaching land in the tropics after a prolonged spell at sea. You could smell the jungle and earth.
  2. When I had my Yamaha RD250 in the early seventies, I had to blip all the time because the bloody thing would keep oiling up one plug or the other, and it was the only way to stop it from stalling. The second cylinder would usually fire up half way around a corner in the wet, causing a huge pucker factor. Always kept me alert!
  3. I shall now be able to sleep easy! Thanks @boboneleg
  4. I know that place, can’t remember where it is, and it’s doing my head in. ?
  5. A bloke in Bangor caught me pissing on his wall in Bangor during the National Eisteddfod week in 1971. I apologised profusely stating that I wouldn't have pissed on it had I realised that it was his wall. He seemed placated, and bemused. No cops fortunately. Might have been a bit underaged at the time. ?
  6. That’d really freak out the neighbours! Excellent. Left my respirator on my last ship as it took up too much space in my luggage. Would have been useful now.
  7. Was in a club with her when this bloke turned up giving her grief. As he went to thump her, I got my punch in first, as you do, laid him out, then two of his mates joined in. When the bouncers turned up they realised that I was Welsh and joined in as well. I got used as a football down some stairs. Cracked my nose and headache for a couple of weeks. Transpires that the guy who started it shared a cell with the woman's ex and was out to cause trouble. Savages. Cops came along and wanted to press charges but I let it go, thinking that revenge is best served cold. I was up there years later but the club had closed down. Shit happens.
  8. @Titie got back from Columbia by the skin of his teeth. There’s a story there if the lazy bugger can shift his arse to posting.
  9. That colour’s rather turdesque. ?
  10. All three on various occasions! ?
  11. Only once when I got beaten up in a nightclub in Dumbarton. Long story with a woman involved. ?
  12. My first bike after inheriting my father’s C50. Got it new and got pulled for speeding that night, running in. ?
  13. I almost got one but fortunately couldn’t afford the h.p., thankfully! Wouldn’t have lasted.
  14. Just seen this and thought it might have been a Bond film.
  15. Don’t know about that distinction thing. Too many disgraceful episodes behind me. I haven’t noticed too many hedges on your videos so I might be safe.
  16. My joints and back aren’t designed for those ergonomics. ?
  17. Just let me know where and when, and I’ll make it happen. I’ll follow @Sir Fallsalot
  18. I was expecting a hospital. ?

    More Norway

    What was it?

    More Norway

    I had a tent and the intention was to camp, but the huts were a good option on this part of the journey. I need to go again and ride some of these roads in decent weather, and take my time over it. Bit of a drive from Portugal!
