    Most definitely an instruction, you know what to do.

    well, it was being ridden at the time. If I see it parked up, I could
    be tempted. It was one of those piece-o'shit really twee scooters, in
    a sort of metallic cream colour. Horrible.

    That said, I'm still quasi-tempted to buy a Runner 180 for the
    Frankfurt run, if there's going to be one in the spring.

    I saw a Peugeot scooter the other day and felt compelled to overpower it in
    the shortest possible time by wrestling it to the ground and pummelling it
    with my fists.

    That was what I spoke to Ben about, at the time it was decided no
    automatics.

    <thinks>

    Maybe it was just a polite way of telling me I'm a ****.

    I guess it doesn't seem in keeping with the spirit of the excercise.
    Though in its own way, doing a >1000 mile round trip on a 2-stroke
    scooter is also kinda silly.
    there is that, of course.

    I'd like to do the trip on a KX200. But I've not found one yet.

    I spend all weekend looking for a cheap <200cc trailee. All I could find
    was shite old field bikes and stuff costing 800 quid upwards. I think
    people keep them in the same shed as their rocking horse shit and hens
    teeth.

    I don't remember saying that it was no automatics.

    It may have been Shaun that said it, and I misremembered. I was a tiny
    bit drunk at the time.

    I’ve got one you can have for 500, It’s quite old but has 10 months tax
    and MOT.
