A few pics from a local Steam rally with a decent collection of (non-steam powered) motorcycles. Anything from Ariels to Bulltacos, Guzzis to Douglas's, with a few BSA's and Triumphs to boot. 
Some interesting ideas for touring too..
Discovered that I'd double booked us for the Horizons Unlimited meet in Ripley this week - to say I'm gutted is an understatememt. The only major event booked for the year and I still manage to clash with it! Oh well, there's always next year .. and we will be 4,500 mile veterans by then too all being well.
Paula sold all her possessions and the odd kidney and got her Altberg Hogg Original boots on order. I guess they're popularity is booming as there's about a 2 month waiting list for them! Should be well worth the wait though, then I'll be getting boot envy without a doubt.
While I'm on here I feel I must make comment on a program we caught on TV last night - The Worlds Greatest Motorcycle Routes. Quite possibly the strangest mix of idiot, motorcycle, posh hotels and shopping tips I've seen in a long while. Worth watching for the comedy and strangely hypnotic - "what trash is he going to say next" - effect.
