  1. Ah , the Forest of Bowland . I kind of " Discovered " that on paper , so to speak , by just looking at a map and trying to work out a scenic route to Scotland . It looks like a sort of enclave where no major roads have ever been built . I'd be interested in any more first hand information if you can provide it . .
  2. A very enjoyable weekend . I got it into my head to go to Wales on Saturday afternoon so I grabbed just the basics for a one night camp and set off .
  3. The next one's are all too far for me . I'd have set off straight after work in the rush hour and there's no fun in that . The A46 is choked with contraflow between Coventry and Warwick at the moment so that's a major obstacle to getting down to the Cotswolds .
  4. I certainly will . I believe that the venue changes all the time . The last one was Moreton in Marsh I think.
  5. Here's another shot .
  6. The best bit was the young lady walking among the crowd with a tray of hot dogs and when they were all sold coming straight back with another tray full .
  7. A brilliant night . The whole village was full of bikes . I have not seen such a diversity of bikes at a bike night in a very long time . There was definitely a few million quids worth to look at . As an added bonus there were no w**kers on quads , no stink of weed and no antisocial riding . Marvelous .
  8. Who's up for this ? All in an excellent cause . It's tonight 11/08/21
  9. So about 75 minutes barring holdups .
  10. That's near enough for the Spitfires . They're outside the Jaguar plant in Castle Bromwich .
  11. A delightful little video that I happened upon .
  12. Ok , here are three of my favourites , all with an aeronautical theme . But where are they ? Winner gets a well done .
  13. Well that's about right . Apparently the owner made the enormous crash bars and attached them to the swinging arm . You can't make it up . There is a proportion of Harley owners who are first time motorcycle owners and many of them really don't know anything about anything .
  14. This is a pre 2004 Sportster with a genuine 500 miles on the clock . Any ideas why ?
  15. The popular perception is that in olden times , people in the stocks were pelted with rotten vegetables and occasionally pissed on by a passing dog . It all seems like good natured fun but I wonder what really happened ? I bet thieves in particular were regularly beaten to a bloody pulp , and then pissed on but not necessarily by a dog .
  16. Is this a spelling mistake ?
  17. It's just a little hobby of mine . Whenever I hear about a bike being stolen , I go on Google maps and sure enough , there's almost always a permanent Traveler site within a mile or so of the theft .
  18. Here they are .
  19. Hello and welcome . You don't happen to live in Spain by any chance do you ?
  20. So why go there then ? There are plenty of other farm shops around . Surely you weren't hoping to meet Jeremy Clarkson ?
  21. That's probably true . I think people still think Lidl and Aldi are cheap because years ago they were very very cheap . I can remember the 4p baked beans .
  22. I wouldn't bother honestly , we only have about five hot days a year .
  23. Absolutely not , I think this electric vehicle thing is the biggest con going . This thing will run out of resources quicker than the oil .
  24. Sounds good . You will pay a Farrier , a Vet , a Cartwright and a Wheelwright to name but a few . You will also need to pay for vetinary insurance , grazing and livery and if we all follow your lead , we will need an army of people to scrape up all the shit from the roads .
