Looks like 12th century originally but has been added to several times........... https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1090185

Ace Chris, that first photo looks like Champagne country.

I'm sure they appreciate your custom ?

That looks ace Pete, practise some back end drifting on those corners ?

That's sooooooooooooo cool. I was lucky to have a fair bit of time talking to him and Sam Manicon about 8 years ago when I helped out at the opening of an overland company.

I can't see why not, as long as the wheel builder can get the correct length and bend for the spokes.

I think it may be old England, apart from the bits that were old Wales

My son has sung at the Colston hall several times. Of course, we're not aloud to call it the Colston Hall anymore but everyone over 40 years of age will just keep calling it the Colston Hall You should have said 'yer fanny' then they'd have known what it was ?

I've got a mate who has done his already, personally I wouldn't covert that type of wheel . If I wanted to do that I'd get a a proper set up with rims like the BMW's and Aprilia's.

Having dealt with foresters when I used to work there for a couple of years I don't disbelieve you for one moment ?

They are a cracking bike Pedro. Enough speed on the road, can handle the dirt and devoid of all the electronics (that you don't need) imo. I would say that it would be a bit of a push if you wanted to carry a pillion though.

Exactly , he'll whup you by default ?

So on up to Gloucester where I used the ring road to escape the traffic and then up Birdlip Hill and into the Cotswolds to find some roads like this...... I liked this bridge over a stream at Cowley because of the deorative railings.............. So I did some more back roads and then stopped to eat my sandwiches here............ Eventually I came out on the A435 near North Cerney and spotted this really old church............. I took some more back roads to bypass Cirencester and then the A433 down to Badminton and back home. I really enjoyed the ride but it wasn't exactly very warm for July but apparently it's going to hit 30c on Friday so we'll probably all die

I decided to get out for a road ride today as I shall be starting back at work tomorrow after being out for 4 months due to the covid situation. So I was thinking where to go and in the end plumped for a loop around the River Severn, over to Wales, up through the Wye Valley and back down to home via Gloucestershire. So a blast along the M4 and M48 to get to Chepstow and then up the A466 for a stop at Tintern Abbey.............. So I carried on up to Monmouth but the place was shut ? they were diggin up the High St and there were roadworks everywhere so I gave up trying to get to the spot where I was going to stop for a coffee went back over the Wye and up into the Forest of Dean........ I by-passed Ciderford and took a back road through Blakney which took me past Soudley Ponds. This was a new spot to me so I stopped and had a walk along the bank, there were some big Roach cruising in some of the shallower parts...... I carried on down to the A48 and headed north until I got to Newnham where you can get some good views of the upper reaches of the tidal part of the Severn.........

Procycle are good to deal with, I've bought a fair few parts off them for my DR650

If it's raining he'll whup your arse

I voted for Specs, purely on the grounds that he was mad enough to buy a CCM ?

Cheers Buck, I may have to get one of those.

When you ride tour bike around the front of the station were you making 'whoo whoo' noises in your helmet ?
-
That's exactly what I thought. How come the dude on the Hardly is not wearing a helmet ??

That's not what your union members told me
