All spotted at Squires over the last 3 days...
« on: February 27, 2019, 20:23:52 »
Monday afternoon two bright Yellow Vstroms, forgot to ask your names but one of you is having a gap year so you can both travel around what's going to be left of Europe after March. Site stickers issued.

Wednesday afternoon a friendly chap on a Tuned grey 1000, site stickers issued.

I'll be surprised if a new bike appears, he'll just be washing the old one... :smirk:

I think it may have more to do with the fact that a trip to the chippy puts around 600 miles on the clock!

....as well as keeping a dirty motorcycle, Holmsey is also bereft of any sense of direction. :icon_no:

600 miles for chips indeed, do I need to remind you who pays your wages? ###

Funnily enough.... I pay my own wages as well .... while we are on the subject .... Can I have a pay rise ????,
In fact I think I pay more to your wages in the price of fuel than you give to me .... as said by MartinW
