"Changes from standstill to glacial motion"?

 

me too - I've got this vision of it becoming a sort of really slow two
wheeled European Cannonball Run...

 

pity it's not downhill all the way there *and* back...

 

I'm going to give the CD200 a bit of a run at the weekend, to see how
it gets on.

 

You can be Burt Reynolds.

 

Ben Blaney

And who's Catherine Bach?

So I could apply with the Combo, though it's a 350, but severely hampered
by the sidecar I'd reckon.

 

You called it, mate: it's you.

 

The selection board will consider your application.

 

this is what Cane has - seriously, we had three sportsbikes abreast at
the front of the back of the van (IYSWIM), and we could easily have
fitted another one in - as you said, it would *easily* take 5 small
bikes, maybe as many as 7.

 

sure, but I didn't want to speak for you, IYSWIM.

What a star he is. So, is Sean still up for it?

 

it's a LWB Merc Sprinter, not a tranny...

 

given that the **** hasn't worked out we're leaving from Calais, I'm
having nothing to do with him.

I didn't realise, BTW, that we were all supposed to go the same route.

Also, where were you thinking of staying in Frankfurt?

 

I'll start growing the 'tache now, then...

 

Ash.

 

Bagsy driving the Sprinter.

Transit-esque vans 0wn.

 

The fucknut rally?
Shitebike Sprint?

 

we haven't asked him if we can borrow it yet.

Cane's really does - it does like 110mph, and has a tiptronic
quick-shift transmission...
