I can't remember whether you were with us when we called in at Boano's shop in Italy Fred ? Here's Ivano Boano showing us how to ride a T700 properly...........

I think I was next to go through

I was lucky Fred, I bought them off a guy on a forum for £120, he hadn't even worn them and sent me the receipt incase of any problem with them. They are like walking in a pair of slippers compared with the Sidi Adventures but I still use my faithful Sidi Trials boots for trail riding.

Hah, I think I remember this one, I'm sure I was there ?

These will fall apart after about 2 months ?

I've recently bought the same boots Fred, I don't use my Sidi Adventure boots now as I prefer the Forma's

Now we all know (perhaps Tym is excepted) that you have to watch your P&Q's nowadays. Apparently you're not allowed to sing that lovely nursery rhyme anymore where you ask the black sheep if he's got any wool So let's see your photos/vids, anything that makes you laugh and feck the PC brigade ? I'll start with Benny Hill, a right wrong-un if ever there was ..........

I see that Jesus is comming ? has he been to the Kum and Go ?

You have bad boys in your area, be careful , the accountants are usually more aggresive than the doctors ?

Yes thet are tall, I put lowering links on the one I had.

Nice one Fred, the Dog is looking as cool as ever There was a XR650L on ebay last week, it was fairly low mileage , had lots of spares but was using a bit of oil and smoking on start up. I'm gutted as it went for £1900 , trouble was it was up near Glasgow, that's why I didn't bid

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 ?

All smartarse comments welcome as long as it doesn't offend @Grasshopper's Ride

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
