Re: Hello (again) from darkest Lincs

Good to hear from you again, old chum, and thanks for the contribution to the coffers! I missed the last 'trixter weekend due to my better half's health scare, but am currently doing a "not quite Flash" tour of France with one of my biking buddies. It would be good to see you at a Boxertri...

Re: Another BMW....

Well... range... The Official WLTP range for mixed driving is 273 miles. In Winter, in the pouring rain, at motorway speeds, that's nearer 180 miles. Now it's getting warmer, and I'm doing less motorway miles I'd say it's a comfortable 220 mile range, without having to drive like an old lady. Given ...

Re: Another BMW....

Nice one Steve. I bought myself an electric MG4 and I love it. Once you get used to the instant surge of the electric motor, getting back into an ICE car seems a lot more sluggish than I remember.

It is gratuitously orange, too.

Re: Welsh Weekend 2023 (UPDATE)

Thanks Phil. See you next time.

BTW, I have now cancelled my room, so if anyone needs one, call the Hand ASAP.

Re: Welsh Weekend 2023 (UPDATE)

I'm afraid that I am not going to be able to make it to Wales for this trip, after all. My partner Helen had abdominal surgery last Wednesday and she is not going to be fit enough for me to abandon her next weekend. I'll be cancelling my room at the Hand later this morning, so if anyone is still aft...

Re: Sri Lanka on an Enfield 350 Classic

Looks like you are having a fabulous time Al, other than Sue's broken ribs. Your pictures look glorious. How are you finding the situation in Sri Lanka currently? It's all gone very quiet in the news over here since their PM was overthrown and the whole system of government seemed to be crumbling si...

Hi gnarlybadger/Gunk190,

I have reset your GunK190 password and sent you a PM with the new password. Click on the "Private messages" button near the top right of this screen to read the message I sent you and get your "new" password.

Happy to help,

Re: september 17th and 18th Borders weekend

Hi Chris,

I'm not sure if I can make this one. I'll let you know in the next month or two if I can squeeze this trip in or not.

Cheers,

Richard Sedgwick just got the last room at the Hand, if you wouldn't mind adding him to the list of attendees Steve.

Very good. I guess that's why they are called "head bangers"?

Re: Not Mine, yet : V100 Mandello

The V100 had popped up on my radar as a potentially more socially acceptable alternative to my GS. I really had a soft spot for the Griso until hearing Boxerscott's experience of ownership, but I do like the left field looks of the V100, combined with the shaft drive. Having driven a "popular, ...

Re: Bob Burnett

Sadly, no. I contacted Judy via e-mail and she thanked us for our condolences but did not give any funeral details. I think we have to assume by now that we have missed it.
