    Oops. SWMBO has just expressed her extreme pleasure about the fact
    that the garage is so full, you couldn't swing a mouse in there. And
    that's with her pushbike residing in her bedroom, which pleased her
    even more.

    So, if anyone in reasonable distance[1] has enough space in his garage to
    provide temporary accomodation for either the Bimota or the Suzuki
    (preferably the former, I can leave the Suzuki outside under a cover;
    the alloy not gonna fur up any more) then could you please get in
    touch?

    Would need to drop the bike off between now an Thursday
    afternoon. Payment in $curry or $beverage, cash as last resort :).

    [1] From North Finchley, that is.

    Lozzo was seen penning the following ode to ... whatever:
    Well, I did offer you a go, didn't I?

    Under two conditions, yes:

    - It stays inside when it's wet outside. Too much untreated alloy for
    that. TBH, some of the alloy needs a polish already but I was
    planning to do that soon anyway.
    - You bend it, you buy me another one, 'cos you won't be able to find
    the parts...

    Not exactly local, but I'm sure I could manage it.

    Cheers. An hour max to Milton Keynes, that should be
    manageable. Anyone know how often trains run from MK to London?

    AFAIK it's every hour for an Inter-City. With 'local' trains in between.

    Forgot to add.... you've probably got a max. of 4-5 weeks before you'll
    have to recover it, as we'll be moving - and I assume picking it up from
    South Wales may be a bit of a PITA.....

    How temporary? If it's up to about a month then there's room for one
    here (IIRC you have my address). I could give you a lift to Hitchin
    station if that would help.

    Until mid-January. SWMBO pushbike will wander back up to her room when
    she's back in Germany and she's here until 7/1.

    As just mentioned in the post to Mr Eaton, I'll need to store it
    somewhere else until mid January. SWMBO is flying back to Germany on
    the 7th.

    No problem, then. We're still here until the last week of January by the
    looks of things.

    You seem to have plenty of choice. If you want to leave it here, you
    have my phone #, give me a call (I'm away tonight).

  16. Pssst! Lozzo - this is one of Timo's bikes. Mot even he gets to use it.
    Well, not for more than a few miles, anyway.

    Harlow.

    has enough space in his garage to
    Welcome if none of the others pan out. No real need to remove for a
    while either as long as you give me a hand to shift stuff as needed in
    order to squeeze it in

    I can put it up in my garage - (alarmed etc) - plenty of room, free
    and keep it there as long as you like

    Now we finally begin to see how JP actually sources his "free"
    bikes...
