Maybe that could be @Mawsley reward for his milestone achievement this week?

Am I missing something here? The 2022 bikes have just been launched. The 2022 CB500X has twin front disks, USD forks and a bit of weight saving here and there! This review is a bit late?

A bit of Post Rock......

Anyway, for me it's a bit of fun and I do actually think of where I can go on the bike to try to get a decent photo, so it encourages me to explore a bit more, which has to be a good thing? What it's called is really semantics?

There's certainly more XT's for sale here than DR's, so I guess that the same is true here as well.

I thought that in order to meet the new emissions regs injection was a must?

Imagine my disappointment, @Pedro, I went to all the trouble to remove my top box for 1 vote! I won't be making that mistake again!

But the bikes rarely change, so the setting or the photo is the only variable from month-to-month? But, the bike is the constant, so calling it BOTM encapsulates it for me. This reply probably makes no sense to anyone else, but I know what I mean!

I suspect that @Mawsley posted that pic primarily for this reason and the voting was also a kind of protest vote? I have nothing against the Vespa and it was a great photo, but I voted for @MooN because I liked the bike and the setting. It was a close run thing though, because I also liked Michelle's photo and @Sir Fallsalot. In fact, I liked all the photos, so maybe it was my affinity with the Triumph that swung it! Edit: I lost my train of thought in my reply. Personally I think that Bike of the Month still encapsulates the sentiment of the subject, but maybe to keep in line with current trends it ought to be called TOTWVOAVTIASOTM: Two or Three Wheeled vehicle or any vehicle that identifies as such of the Month. That should keep everyone happy?

I loved and still love the Asterix books. Sometimes some light reading like this is more fun than wading through something heavier. -

They're good for my French, as there's a fair bit of slang in them and I also enjoy them, as they're not too taxing on my basic French! -

He passed away in 2019, sadly.

Yes, he was a bit of a pioneer as well as a writer. Wind, Sand and Stars is about his exploits as an aviator I believe. He went missing during a reconnaissance flight in 1944 somewhere off the coast of Marseille. He lead quite an extraordinary life.
