So lovely!!

Its that 15 minute testosterone cycle...

Yes!

Poor girl... that is seriously unpleasant... coming from a vet that has encountered all manners of it, a line of work that relies heavily on knowing poo!! Still, in the Animal kingdom the worst is human poo! It washes away, 90% of the times...

I ll give you my money to!! For sure electric

Great!! Nothing beats a nice cup of tea in a bike shop full of character and history and gorgeous sounding machines!! Next visit, it's a date!!

It's a lovely shop!! One day would love to visit

Great pictures and scenery!!

Was going to send you this!!

No one with such great taste in bikes will ever be that! It's one of those singularity things!

Cool!!!! I didnt know!

Yes, they are handy things!! I visited that one 2x, once by myself and another when running the Rat Pack. It was before the fire, so 2008 I think. Was amazing! Sammy Miller also has lots and lots of character. It's a weekend away we'll spent, visiting the New Forest and Beaulieu and Sammy's

Seeing it will be tricky to take it to the States to photograph it in its homeland, maybe the American Embassy will do?

It is very worth it. It was the 2nd time for me, had gone round in 2005 when the factory was working, very cool to see it all going. This time was Saturday so all quiet. Loved the fact there were engines on pallets on the floor, bike frames kinda lost around the place, almost felt like a gigantic bike shed!! They also have an exhibition area with bikes chronologically organised, very cool. We hadn't managed to get tickets online, so I did my best puppies eyes to the lady selling tickets and she got us in. Or else, the lad doing the tour happily accepted 2 more because we were from far away. It was lovely!

Thank you!! a British bike, in Britain makes me super, super happy!! And we found out it was really made in Hinckley, so 100% gravy!!

It's a Triumph, they have plenty of gravel DNA!! That's why it's impossible to go out on the Speed Triple and not end up off road, somehow she sniffs it out like a Beagle!

France is lovely on a motorcycle

Stranger things have happened before...

Are all Americans bus drivers?! And Hell Angels????

Attention to detail, the most beautiful thing you do!

Love you more everyday! You have a gorgeous bike, anywhere with scenery and you can win!!

Deserve to win on effort alone! Might get my vote....

I wish to seriously apologise for all this altercation, because the issue was with what I wrote and not Pedro. It was my post that seemed to have trigger Caroline. In my line of work I always think first for the Why, so I dont tend to assume or judge situations on face value. I confess I have no clue why it triggered her to go down the road of "bollocks" and a defensive attitude, but its not important at all! I am super happy for her and everyone, seeing them super content with their lives and enviournment and how things work around them! That is amazing!! There is nothing wrong with thinking different and having different views at all, healthy debate is most welcomed and important to bring people together. But semantics matter and In this situation there is a stark difference between the very nice way Fred expressed his feelings and Caroline's. For sure there are no bad intentions on her part, that's what we believe. On the other hand if someone throws "bollocks" in the air, in a written form where its not possible to understand if its banter or not, one just desingages and moves on. Life is too short. It's a great shame, I am very sorry I caused all this and I hope you can forgive my intromission. 90% of what I wrote is about love, unfortunately the 10% triggered a big reaction.

Uau, there seems to be a great confusion with letherman's at security... so, going to the IoM the lady sent Pedro's one for destruction immediately. I had one also, but no issue there. With Brittany ferries, all bikers were stopped and the guy asked us "do you have Swiss army knives? Yes? That's fine. Do you have multitools like Letherman? Yes? OK, that's fine too" basically it depends on the bloke or gal asking. Interesting way to do security checks, but not surprising seeing its all outsourced staff. Still, good to know the law is enforced and applied correctly and properly, no more dangerous multitools for me, I don't have a clue what to do with it anyway!! Rather call recovery!
