Just an aside about medication....which I have been on for about 10 years......my GP at the time....a very nice Lady told me that she liked to try a 'cocktail' of pills as they all did different things and together the right 'cocktail' would see me sorted out OK. I cheekily suggested that I was rather hoping to take those new ones that I had recently read about !

Looking at me over her designer specs......she asked "And what are those Mr T"....my reply...."Oh you know.....those new tablets you take six times a day - after sex".

She put her pen down and fixed me with a withering look and responded, "Mr T.....if I could prescribe such a tablet, I would be taking it myself" !

Touche.
Now: 2008 CB1300S, CB750K4, 1970 Bonneville. Various other 1960's 650 Triumph T120's/ TR6's/ TR6C's (all in bits...many, many bits unfortunately). Previous: 2007 CB600FA, 1976 CB500 Four. BMW F800ST. GS750E. ZZR1100. CB1300 (2). ZXR1200S. VFR800. CB750 Nighthawk. CX500. XS500 Yam. Suzuki GT500. BSA A10. Various Lambrettas. Zundapp Bella (honest).

Is this the first time you have felt fit to ride or has the weather been holding you back as well. My much nicer other half had a new hip 5 weeks ago.

Hi,

Just had an email through about this years event on the 1st July.

Last year went down well with those who went I think. Personally now when I read many posts, I can relate to them more - knowing the "character"** behind it. (**substitute a word of your choice!).

This years brochure accompanying below. Who's in then?

Let you know more when I receive further info.
