Re: Boxertrix Roll of Honour: Most prolific posters
Ahh yes, I remember that first meeting. We met up at Peterbourgh Services and rode over to Ashbourn - it seemed quite central at the time. If I remember correctly there was myself, Richard, Nigel, Malc, Mal and one other who's name I've forgotton and Winger came over to the hotel at breakfast on th...

Re: Boxertrix Roll of Honour: Most prolific posters
Wonderful stuff, Paul. :) I remember (I think) contacting Nigel Speaight and Peter Lyon when we were members of the Pelican Parts forum which was very much USA-centric. A great forum, but felt we might like a more UK-based set-up. This was November 2000 (I'd had my first 1100S for a few months). The...

I had a brief whizz on a Valkyrie a few years ago, was an absolute riot. A definite 'don't knock it till you try it'.

Re: Jack's Hill Cafe, Towcester, Monday October 5
Sorry for being late to the party (plus ça change etc).
Won't be able to make it to Jack's I'm afraid, got so much on. Hope you all manage a meet-up ok.

Re: Not a BMW
That's one hell of a clean example, Steve - a great find. I had my eye on one of these when I got my VFR. I tend to agree re the twin vs IL4 thing, and for the first few months with my Blackbird I missed the feel of a large capacity twin. Over time though, I got to love it - it's very different of c...

Re: The time has come!!
Nice one, Peter. :) I got very close to a return to biking very recently (in other words, started browsing Bike Trader) but I'm really not sure now. Spending time doing a lot of *photography (some of it even paid!) but would love to meet up with you and the gang at some point...it'd be on/in 4 wheel...

Re: RIOTD...
For a change, instead of getting out in the morning, took my one long walk this evening - so fortunate to have all this on our doorstep:

Re: Crass Stupidity!
BTW, a massive thanks to Steve for adding the word "wankspangle" to our collective vocabulary. I don't know how I have managed all of these years without it! A commonly-used noun in the military for many years, and an extremely useful one too. Can be lengthened to... 'W*nkspangling thunde...

Re: Richard Joyce
Many thanks all - am getting there slowly, tired a lot of the time but start cardiac rehab in a couple of weeks which'll give me goals to achieve.
Whilst I wouldn't be so dramatic as saying I was at 'death's door' it really has made me realise what's important in this life.

Re: Richard Joyce
Thanks for the kind wishes everyone, it's really appreciated. Went for my first proper walk this morning (for about 10 mins) and I'm still here to tell the tale.

Re: Richard Joyce
Morning fellas, Thanks so much for the well-wishes, it's been a slightly tricky week to put things mildly. Been doing a lot of walking recently without a murmur - including a week's holiday up in Northumberland with the family (including the mad hound) where we spent most of each day climbing dunes,...
