Did consider resurrecting it recently but I don't think it'd be too good for this stuff:

You didn't try and post something in For Sale did you? Without first waiting for the planets to align, turning 3 times widdershins, and sacrificing your firstborn?

Nope, but I read an amusing post today by someone who transgressed these stipulations :p

Hang on, there's another photo to accompany that... This one was taken about a minute before, local chap seemed to want to show me how it was done:

Not me! I was up at the top of the run-in, waiting to see how it was done. :smt036

My mate Chris was waiting for me to come down so took that one just as a warm-up. Nice.

Morning, I might be too late but wanted to say hi, you won't know me from Adam but I recall reading a lot of your posts when you were more active and I was just a lurker and wanted to say thanks :)

The one that is recalled easiest was about visibility and you had a high vis fleece, "I may look like a knob but I can been seen from SPACE!" ;) always amused me and stuck with me.

'Ello Northy! Your garage looks more crowded than YC's! And his SV is currently serving the exact same purpose, as a shelf :rolleyes: sad times

Beer run! Good times... Though to be fair it turns out a mondeo estate's much better at carrying beer :)

Hello :)

We met down in Soho one time, I believe. Good to have you back for a visit. I sold my SV a few months back, but still come here. One of my favourite bike forums still.
