  2. I totally agree, I like the look of old bikes and then I punch myself in the face to remind me what they were like
  3. My apologies @Pedro , I turned intothe antithesis of @XTreme for 5 minutes
  4. If it's the same family I met they're from Wolverhampton, I think the guys name is Eddie ? He's got a Kawasaki VN1500, I sent him a workshop manual after our visit.
  5. Yes, I wouldn't mind doing that as I camped there last May for a couple of nights
  6. That's for a guided tour , I was happy to pay nothing and just roam around
  7. My mate had the DT250 , it wasn't as good as the 175. I had a XT500 enduro , it was a heavy lump, great engine but not great 6v electrics . Worth crazy money now .
  8. Depending on what I hear about this year I may give it another go next year .
  9. Some info .................. Suitably impressed I rode on through Pewsey Vale to get a gander at the White horse ................ and rode some more trails around Avebury but not this one, the ruts were about 2 foot deep in places and I only have 3mm tread left on my tyres On the way home I checked on the lane with the fly-tipping from last week, top marks to Wiltshire CC as they had cleared it up and then a short stop by the duck pond in Biddestone to have a coffee on the way home ............
  10. So what do you do if you have a bit of spare land, you have an interest in past times and you live in a part of the country full of neolithic monuments ? You build your own Long Barrow of course That's what some bloke did near All Cannings in Wiltshire so today I went to have a look at it , I rode across the top of Rounway Hill to get there............. and along the byway that crosses the Kennet & Avon canal to get to it .............. And I wasn't disapointed , what an amazing feat of engineering. But what's more impressive is the fact that dudes did this with basically their bare ahnds and rudimentary tools over 5000 years ago There's a locked gate to stop you from going inside but you can arrange to get access for £30 if that's your thing. I made do with poking my nose through the gate ............ and then I clambered ontop to get a view from above ..............
  11. Suzuki have lost the plot in recent years , a nice yellow ain't going to sell a bike whenb the competitor has more power and is lighter .
  12. None of the Honda's, they were all shit in that era, can't decide between TS250C or the DT175MX
  13. Ummmmmmmmmmmmm @Six30 , you really need some new glasses ........
  14. Nah, I'm doing a bunkhouse meet in Much Wenlock next week instead, what about you ?
  15. You have good reason not too ride, I was talking more about the Euro pussies
  16. That sick note is lasting a long time, they'll condemn you if it goes on much longer ..................
  17. So it seems it's just me and Saul riding bikes at the moment, what a bunch of casuals on here ...................
  18. Herefordshire is full of red clay so it’s a no
  19. Guess where I’m riding today , name the county ?
