You and @Six30 could cuddle up with the DMB’s and the dead dogs

Yebbut , if you'd parked the bike 180 degrees to that position surely you would have had the moors as a view in the background and not a rough car park with a pile of rubble behind it ?

I'm a great believer in the saying 'you get what you pay for' . We all like a bargain but if you buy cheap then that's usually what you get, something that's made cheaply. This is my Cyclepump air compressor, it's nearly 12 years old now and has never failed. It is housed in a strong metal case so it can take the knocks when you're transporting it in your panniers over rough ground. It has a brass chuck instead of plastic and the power cord is 8 foot long so you can plug into your bike and still blow up your mates tyre.

Must be a theme, @busabeast has parked with a pile of rubble in shot whereas if he'd taken it the opposite way he'd probably have some nice scenery

I see that twat Marquez just crashed again

Easter is more important to Spanish and Italians than xmas. I'm looking forward to bangers and fireworks going off at 06.00am in the days leading up to it

Italian's as well, I have to look forward to in a couple of weeks time

Nice one @Marcel hope you have a great time

69 ?

A few rails and obviously the bridges . If you go 3-4 miles further down the line at Bitton there are working trains and a line . I'll try to go there one day but it's a bit of a bunfight for the parking.

F*ck off, Dave knows what a spanner looks like

Fuckmine, that rough !!!!

Fuckmine, no one with a Claudia Winklepicker fringe can be classed as a peasant ...............

It was far too wet to walk through the woods or down to the river today so we drove over to Warmley to walk along the cycle/pestrian path ............... No. this bloke is not giving himself a blow job !! It's a drinking fountain ........... Although there were plenty of wild primroses along the route, one suspects that these are not native .............. and back to the signal box . We walked about 4 miles all told.

That's Scutty , he is a man of taste. He has a Desert Sled as well

Those Shad's are just ugly copies of Givi's boxes. If you want the real thing I have some (Givi) in my garage, you can have one for free. This is what you call sleek and practical, you can even balance your helmet on it without it falling off...............

That's all down to personal preference, I don't find it anymore of a pain riding my CRF250 Rally on a long distance than I use to on my KTM950ADV. There is also the fact that 85 mpg is a lot better than 42 mpg with fuel prices as they are now.

Interesting you say that. My Honda is built in Thailand and I have just received (this morning) a sumpguard and air filter from Thailand , genuine Honda parts exactly the same as you would buy from any dealer in UK. Admittedly they took 12 days to get here and the shipping was £25.42 but here's the rub............. The sumpguard cost £16.04 and the air filter was £7.28, now I'll give you the prices for exactly the same parts with Honda part numbers from any Honda UK dealer, £107.74 and £26.74

It could be the perfect bike to ride across France (doing some TET sections) and down to the Pyrenees

True Fred but we all know that the Honda would never cut it as a rally bike This bike looks like an out and out race bike and you know more than anyone all that stuff gets in the way when your riding UK trails (they are not usually wide and open) . The only reason I have the Rally rather than the CRF250L is that you get that bit of protection for road journeys (I've been to France twice on it) and that makes it a lot more comfortable than the 'L' on a long journey. I personally think they will sell loads of them if the reliabilty and spares back up is as good as KTM and all it's clones .

A mate of mine has just ordered one but imo unless you're doing Rally's then it's just overkill for UK trails
