Just seen this online on another site and it made me laugh so much that some wee came out. I'm going to Hell for laughing If anyone on this group is alone at Christmas please get in touch. I’d like to borrow some chairs. 1 Comment

fuck off, neither my phone n'or Camera came out of their waterproof bags that weekend. I have one photo at first fuel stop on the way down which I can't find. I do have the bdage and sticker to prove that I was there though. The second night the weather was so apalling everyone was evacuated to the nearby villages in the middle of the night to sleep in the village halls and sports facilities...

Mum reminded me of when in holland at christmas some parp named Zwarte Piet came to the door, i freaked out started to cry, so Piet gave me a lump of coal. I googled the guy and no wonder i went for a gat, glad we left holland seems like a weid place me thinks.

Shit is warm, there's nothing resembling of warm there! It's like riding a bike in a deep freezer, then setting up tent in a deep freezer, then eating dinner in a deep freezer, then the bike doesn't start because it's been parked in a deep freezer, etc All the while, drinking jagermeister?

Just over 2 weeks.......and bloody Xmas is here! God I hate Xmas.......loved it in the 70's out on the razzle and screwing slags though! I remember Xmas Eve 72......overturning my mate's Anglia van in a ditch while out in a remote area of Swansea with two slags! We had to walk miles to get back to civilization and then book a recovery truck to get the van out on Xmas Day. Picked my mate up from work (he was a chef in a hospital) early afternoon to collect the van......I was on a Suzuki Hustler and he was too fucking pissed to stand up. Ended up riding there while holding him on the back of the bike at the same time cos he'd passed out! Great days! What's your wild Xmas memories prior to us all becoming old and fucked?

At last......I've found another devotee of the Keith Moon/Bon Scott lifestyle in their younger days! The rest of this lot are pathetic Bob.......they were probably at home wearing their Xmas jumpers and listening to Max Bygraves albums!

I can remember coming out of the pub on xmas eve and having a huge snowball fight with my mates. Then driving my Escort van (I was more upmarket than you Pete ) back across Bristol. I took the side roads to avoid the old bill but hit at least two cars (at very slow speed) because of the snow. On the Cumberland Basin flyover, I stopped the van , opened the door and pucked into the snow. At this point my mate had enough and comandeered the driving seat, he drove the rest of the way home. My mate apparently had another kerffufle with some big dude who accused him of tampering with his mum, I had no idea about any of this as I was comatose in the back of my van ? I wasn't the prettiest sight on xmas morning and I had no idea where my van was for the next three days.

He's taught me so much over the years... ?

Christmas is just time off work for me now whenever the wife or kids ask me what i want for Christmas my reply is always the same for you lot to fuck off out so i can have some time on my own

Probably cant say without incriminating himself Pete

Seen this @Tym........Moon's having a Buck moment!

Photos? Or is this a Buck moment?

ooh, ooh... me... me... I did the " Millevaches" last year . proper snorkel and flippers rally it was too!

Id go butt, id have to have a Zündapp KS 601 with sidecar, show up in style.

Some for you here Pete, my old BMW650GS Dakar. When i got it it was about 10 months old and covered in Touratech farkles , I catalogued them and it was over £1000 worth. I took most of it off and sold it. As standard it looked like this......... I junked the tyres for some knobblies and sourced a complete set of bodywork (bit by bit) and then sprayed it in Ford Atlantic blue . The o/e panels were put in the loft to keep them tidy. Here's a photo with my mates Ford Escort rally stage car........ Then I used it for the purpose intended......... I also rode it to the Pyrenees, did a two day navigational rally on trails and then rode it back home. It averaged 71mpg for the whole trip On the way home I just had to get a photo when I spotted the sign to this village, I wonder who lives there ?

I reckon Fred might have a few tales and we have to remember that a certain someone on here used to ride around naked in the desert so I'm sure he's got some tales.

nope. Christmas has always been a family affair. New years eve though...

And Friday would have been Jarno's 75th birthday! Today is Tepi's 75th!

First thing I though when I saw the pic. We used to fix panels on buses like that.

Agreed Pedro......I'd book a hotel as well and let the fucking headbangers freeze their nuts off in a field full of mud and shit!

Nobody likes a show off, @Tym @Earache @XTreme!

I had a rack of ribs when i came home from work today at least that's what the wife said it was, Looks like she lied i'm going to get her and show her what a rack of ribs should look like, i feel cheated

As I've been trawling through my pictures this triggered a memory of something I made back in the old days, I searched and there it was, same bike.
