Did you buy it from Helmet City in Cheddar ?

That chain is looser than my first girlfriends knickers

Talking of huge snow ....... where’s @Earache

Very good point @Buckster you gotta watch them Mexican bummers

You've only done one twattish thing all year though (and you fessed-up) , the TOTY is a shoe-in at the moment

That's true

That could still imply that the winner was a man

Just a question.............. as we have at least five regular female contributors here should we not be calling it POTY ? I'm sure the ladies in question might not be all that thrilled to win the MAN of the year title ?

That's a fair percentage of the population isn't it Pedro ?

If were doing great voices then this guy is right up there, however my wife tells me that his Italian pronounciation is crap

Have you got to go to Ashton Gate or somewhere else ?

Stick to bikes or you open the door for photos of me on my crutches , or Tym's boogie board, of Clives gardening, or the latest plane that Caroline is on, or etc etc

Interesting strategy

The 2020 DR650 is no different whatsoever to the 1996 so I wouldn't worry about that

Decent quality shot, superb backdrop, the fact that the bike was being used to carry something unusual, it looked like the rider was on a great ride. It could be all sorts of things that would make me vote for a certain photo, the fact that it was a BMW1200GS (I hope I've got that correct) was neither here nor there for me. If I'm perfectly honest it's not my favourite bike ever by a long shot but that wouldn't stop me voting for it.

But we're all bike riders , that's the common thing that brings us here ?

I'm sorry but I don't get the '...because I don't think anybody who voted for it would aspire to own a Vespa ' bit at all. Why is the Vespa any less of a bike than any others on here ? what if we get a newbie who rides a C90 or a Honda X-ADV ? are those any less of a bike ?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I've only got the Dakar to compare with personally but I've done lot of distance on my DR650 and never have I got off it feeling uncomfortable.

I voted for you Pedro, anyone who carries a case on wine on their bike in that sort of scenery is ok in my book

Agree with the pillion thing (not that I've ever got one) but disagree on the distance. I've done France , Italy, Switzerland, Spain on mine and the only place the BMW will beat the Suzuki is on fuel consumption imo.

Alternatively......................

I got a vote, feckin top-box legend .................

Nah, a GS still looks pretty smooth compared to some of the bikes coming out now. The GS has it’s own style, it’s been copied but not as good

Is it me or do all bikes look too 'busy' now, whatever happened to smooth lines on a bike ?
