alternative... oh dear what have you been drooling over now???

Lets just say that I'd stand to loose £100 per 1000 miles on my bike since I got it. Looks like a tempting offer but not sure about the timing, will need a test ride, they'll phone me.

I know of a Thundercat that could be had for very little cash, needs a bit of work though...

Anna - Not sure if it's me or Stretchie that's cursed considering what happened this weekend

So whats happened? Is Stretchies car fixed? Are we back to normal, except he has no bike? WHo was that mystery person? And would Stretchie have gotten away with it if it wasnt for them pesky kids? And other questions that demand answers.

Car needed a new battery, which it now has...

Unfortunately the old one was only found to be deader than a dodo yesterday morning, while we were still in Brent Knoll at Stretchie's sister's house, so I couldn't get back to Stretchie's in time to get my gear on etc & meet you all for the rideout to the Ace.

To compensate I took a bit of a detour via S.Wales on the way home today

His bike is still poorly, but hopefully something will be sorted soon involving a hire van and a new gearbox

A big, big thank you to Stretchie for putting me up (or should that be 'putting up with me'?) for the weekend, and hopefully I'll be back sometime soon to do it all again, only without all the mechanical problems this time...

Was good to catch up with you mate, shame it all went t*ts up for the rideouts. Take care.
