  1. You also might be able to meet up with @Skippy (Murcia) and @DangerRuss58 (Alicante/Valencia).
  2. @Pedro was planning to motor across (Covid permitting) so maybe you two could meet up. Pedro speaks Spanish so that would make things a lot easier......plus, if you're flying into Malaga then he'll be heading across from that direction.
  3. Get down to fucking Swansea then!
  4. Not really in my case! Except for the 9 weeks I couldn't ride! But it's just not having the freedom to do what you wanted when you wanted. So if you're in the house by your choice.....that's fine! But if it's by order of the government that's a different thing.
  5. At our age EVERYTHING is Memory Lane Pedro! No future......just a past full of binning bikes and fishy fannies! Tell him @Clive @Swagman
  6. The only difference is snow as far as I can see!
  7. Think it's safe to say that "Woodstock" feeling is long gone for all of us!
  8. If I do win it'll be the first time ever! And remember that BOTM goes back about 15 years! Rare for me to even get a vote really!
  9. It'll probably never happen again in our lifetime Yen!
  10. I know Clive! And I reckon most of this year we're going to be restricted in way or another!
  11. Awful weekend......worked 12 hours yesterday, 12 hours today......and got out on the bike for half an hour. And that was hard going with the bloody wind. And look at next week.....decent Mon-Fri and a fucking shitstorm on the weekend!
  12. I think the worst thing about these Lockdowns for us older guys is the fact that the clock is ticking for us, and we don't have the time to wait for normality to return.
  13. I didn't notice that end bit when I first watched it!
  14. I was out for 20 minutes just to turn the bike over.....that was enough.
  15. Superb Russ! Looks like everybody in Spain has got better weather than me! And you're allowed to go outside the town perimeters?
  16. 1971 I bought a 1963 Lambretta TV175 for 22 quid.......it looked something like this, but in a bad state with a Union Jack seat cover! It was in an even worse state when I sold it two months later after binning it about 10 times! Then I got a 1968 Vespa SS180 like this...... By the end of the year it was battered to shit as I binned that one about 7 or 8 times as well. January 1972 I got a 1965 D7 Bantam like this...... And guess what? I never binned it! Cos I spent most of the time pushing it. The following month I replaced it with a 1966 Triumph 3TA......ex Welsh Water Board. It was like this, but by no means immaculate! Fell of it about 4 or 5 times as I recall. Even took it round Llandow Race Track as well......and came very very close to binning it there too! August 1972 I got a Suzuki T250J Hustler......and that bike was the game changer for me. At last, a bike that didn't fuck up! Still binned it about 4 or times though! And that's as far as I'm going....cos I can't do 59 more!
  17. That'll get us to the top of Google for sure!
  18. Nice one Ray! We've had insane high winds here!
  19. That's @Buckster's gig not mine!
  20. Wasn't mine....I had my Vespa at the time.
  21. It's WWIII as far as I'm concerned!
  22. No......never experienced that! I'm not temperamentally suited to walking! And uttering the words..... That white wooden house is weird Yen.....with the bit sticking out? Great shots though......but no graveyards?
