@GuzziRob I believe that @Sam lives in sunny Gosport, which is somewhat warmer and drier than the northern wastes of Cumbria.

I'm going to give Sam another bad idea here. Moto Strada, who are Rob's Guzzi pusher, have a very tasty Café Racer special in stock. They're up in Skipton, so not too far from the other dealer.

It's based on the latest V7 Racer, so more modern than the other Guzzi, and quite a bit more expensive. But it's a lovely looking thing.

Hopefully this doesn't end with @Giles being tapped for a pay rise.

Some of the other builds Moto Strada have done are pretty cool.

in the real world instead of "pro" builds some backyard hillbilly redneck wrencher started with a -08 Nightster and turned it to this.

Melting snow! I bet that's a sight for sore eyes! Couldn't live somewhere where i couldn't ride all year.

Bikes looking cool! My 48 is hiding from the rain at the moment so it's down to the "trusty" Suzuki to get me places.

Loving the C50. When i was a kid we had a C something, stripped it and used it to do huuuge jumps in the local woods… Happy days.

[harley dave]

The local Triumph dealer has just got their first Thruxton R in.

@GuzziRob called it a proper motorcycle when he saw the picture.

[harley dave]

its a very nice bike indeed

[Sam]

I fell in love with the Super Cub while i was in Vietnam last month. Even if they were busted wrecks they still had a charm to them and the amount of stuff they can carry!!

This was my beast for the trip

and i have no idea what this is but i call it the Hipposcoot7

[Sam]

@harley dave

Looks like a good time! I'd definitely be interested in going. Do tickets sell out pretty quickly?

[harley dave]

you can allways pay on the day but i allways book early as it does tend to fill up its one of the best bike,hot rod and generally allround shows in europe .
i will be booking my ticket in the next few weeks .

Bell have brought out a bunch of new colours for the Bullitt. I quite like the Ace Café collaboration, and the helmet is incredibly light when done in carbon.

The Skratch, in black and red, looks good, but it's using the heavier composite shell.
