I'm sure the Old Man would approve of the Duc, right colours on the Alf's sticker too!
Lets hope it goes as good as it looks - best of luck

I'll be watching!

Give 'Nikey30' a shout, meet up with him on home turf.

Bit of a 2013 brain dump, as it's raining and most of fence panels are now back up! ...sorry about that, my bad, sort of fell off the planet there, too much time away, but enough of the excuses!

Managed to get back home and drive the csl down to Goodwood for the PH weekend where I met Plummer Vic by chance (in the pi55ing rain) good day out sliding around though

IOM Manx Ducati, afraid that blew a head gasket on the last lap and lost power so pretty p'eed off - but wx was good and the beer was plenty, rode over on my new Versys 1000

bit of a what you might call 'Mondeo' but does everything briliantly.
