Turns out I was wearing the same jacket:



Only difference was Jane and Richard made it that time :-)

OO look, there's Jane's Ducati, and you can just see the headlamp of the modified 1200 Sportster I had then. And of course my (then your) GB500 - was that after the first time I sold it to you, or the second? ;-)

How do I insert a picture? Does it have to be hosted elsewhere and I link to it?

Yep, that's what I did.

Er... second I think, not sure.

Great little bike, belted all the way to Hardraw flat out and drank FA petrol and oil. I remember the lack of luggage was down to the fact that I just had a basha that I pegged out between the bike and the ground and put a small sleeping bag down.

I had a bag strapped to the seat and my neat leather throwovers. The throwovers had been fitted to a Virago that had been part-ex'd into Jethro's shop. They decided the bags were a bit scruffy and I ended up with them for gratis. I think the week before the Hardraw run I took the GB to the SRX meet in Holland with the same amount of kit - can't imagine it now :-)

I really should put an XBR solo back together for some of these rides, the sidecar is great, but it's not everything.

Well that didn't work. I uploaded a pic to this site and tried to link to it, but the link must be wrong. How do I discover the correct URL for a picture in the current gallery?

Alternatively:



I had to look at source code to cobble that together though, must be an easier way
