Default It has been one week

Since crash test Dave of Preston purchased insurance, to the best of my knowledge he has not yet crashed.

Has he been riding? His good lady says he has been to Halifax, but he could just be saying that and instead ventured out as far as the pub for a bender.

Is he reformed. I thought his record was 20 minutes. Maybe he is going for a duration record instead of how quick he can crash this time.

Is this post tempting fate?

Don't think fate needs tempted when it comes to Dave! I think fate will be tempted by the very fact he has gotten on his bike!

OMG!

DP doing long journies! He'll need a map or a long piece of string.

Does he buy insurance by the month just in case...

I'm guessing he got life insurance as well as bike insurance this time?

Dave has a few miles on his bike,but usually on the side to save the tyres







Couldn't resist and will probably cost me a pint

One day he will realise that plastics cost more than tryes though.

On the plus side, hes keeping the minitwinners going with all the low mileage engines hes sticking into the reclaimers yards....

He was at Elvington pub Saturday night - they had to resuscitate him when he bought me a soft drink! Didn't know you could do the Heimlich Manoeuvre THERE!
How he got there nobody knows, but Berlin carted him off ( with a few others ) in his passion wagon/race transporter.
Not heard of him since, but if Carl looks in the caravan at Croft this weekend he might get a fright!
