Richard.

Just found this useful training video. Best you have a look as you seem intent on following the demons and attaching that wheel barrow to a perfectly good motocycle................



Today lampeter.............tomorrow Poland........

So invading Poland is a part of BMW/Velorex ownership ?

Seems fair to me.

Indeed. Look forward to seeing you at the Dragon.

Good man, presumably a leftover from that hybrid you were riding when we first met.

Yep, bought it but could never be bothered fitting it. I forget which way i wanted to change the gearing. All I know is that I wasn't too happy with the ratios provided by the R65 bevel box mated up to the R80 gearbox.

Just found the Beefed up Velorex Swing arm I had made !

Need to find a 20mm spindle.

Some different bearings for the wheel and some spacers made.
When you all sorted I can do that for you.

I will be in the fair city in the not too distant future. I could persuade that charming young lass I live with to call by and pick up some bits if that would help...

What do you mean GC not going to the Dragon - I mean that would be the end of the end of civilization...

nearly.

My wife and sister in law booked a hotel stay for us all in Majorca for the February half term. Guess which weekend it covers...  :(

I'm not really keen to have any sort of conversation about it. You can all imagine how I feel. And yes of course spending time with my kids is more important, but a little prior consultation would have been desirable.

The smile was about the offers of help and assistance, for which I am very grateful.

I am not going to discuss the other matter for obvious reasons other than to say that you will be sorely missed.

I aint saying a word !

I know the feeling...having missed Four Holiday/Rally type things this year.
Due to circumstance beyond my control....and costing money in the process.

I think my Folks are getting their own back.  SODS !
