Wow. I wonder how my wife is going to take the news that we are selling the house to fund my new bike? I do hope it becomes a reality even if I can't afford one.

Yes, there was an item on midlands today yesterday about it - very short on technical detail as you might expect. The radiator really spoils the look but otherwise quite a pretty bike. No Goldie though.

They had a luminary from the BSAOC on who was very enthusiastic and "wanted to lick it". They'll let anybody in these days.

I find it ironic that for years a similar phrase was used as a very nasty insult for people with learning disabilities and yet here is a, presumably, articulate person using it in daily parlance and thinking it to be a valid affirmation of desire.

I do understand the sentiment though! I looked at some other photos and they are proposing to do a red one. Ooooo loverly.
