boboneleg Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I've just been to Bike Torque to get some parts for a Panigale . There was another customer in there who was being served , after a while he turned around and saw me. I had my shorts on and he looked at me and said 'what's the chances of that then' , with that he pullled up his trouser to reveal a prosthetic leg !! I had a chat with him and it it truns out he does bike tours, this is the guy .............. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XTreme Posted May 23, 2023 Author Share Posted May 23, 2023 Got to meet a truck coming from Sevilla at 10AM at the petrol station.....it's carrying €1500 worth of straw for the horses. Because of the drought that's been going on there's virtually none available, so we're having to pay way over the odds to get this stuff! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we had a guy we know with a forklift to get it off the truck and stack it under cover! Ended up a bit cheaper at €1200......but that's still nearly double what it normally is. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 At Mendip auction rooms. Just bought a full size reproduction divers helmet for the boys as a house warming gift.
