    yep, the one where you get your kid to sit on the back and see that her feet
    reach the footboards and hence making it legal for her to be a pillion!!!
    She wants to try it, and im happy for her to do it, though i'll only let her
    on for short into town sort of journeys and there is to be lots and lots of
    practice etc first.
    So, first things first, where the feck locally (Bedfordshire) is there to
    get her a helmet and protective gloves etc???

    Ive seen the FAQs, some good online links there, and ive read through the
    pillion thread currently ongoing, but (amazingly) there was nothing
    particularly new there for me anyway.

    So, anyone?

    "BGN" says to "Donegal Paul"
    yup been keeping an eye out for one of those thats local and decent.
    Problem is in bedford theres only the wee suzuki dealer on london road that,
    when i asked about a hydraulic brake line says that they order them in! FFS.

    Then of course, Bob King's near the train station will soon be a block of
    refugee flats, seeing as the poor **** died a few years ago :-(

    Flitwick MC's dont seem to cater for kids, thats about my extent of MC
    shops. though not sure if Biker Den in Woburn Sands is still in existance or
    not?

    fucker could be dead for all i know, I'll set me mum on him!!
    Last I heard, he's got no car anymore, the only bike he has is the bmw which
    is ( a couple of years later) still awaiting a new cylinder head, and he's
    claiming on the dole.
    **** me, he's going from Irish Immigrant to Eastern European!!!!!!

    Surely Uncle Nige isn't silly enough to still be housing the yellow beastie
    with him?

    Considering the size of Nigel's fleet, off-site storage would seem
    remarkably pragmatic.
