Easier said than done without the aid of photographic evidence, but try and picture a Beemer R100 (kindda customised) with the shortest ally type front mudguard you,ve ever seen. Then picture a three day trip around the east coast, (whitby and the surrounding moorland routes) throw in some seriously heavy rainfall. The result being a very wet Beemer rider (propellor) and a fairly a amused XBR rider (me) then drop in a trip to sainsburys homebase (it was a Sunday) to try and find a solution to solve the lack of said mudguard. Clearly being of Yorkshire kin cost was always at the forefront of the exercise, hence the purchase of a TUPPERWARE tub. Use Tupperware tub lid as a makeshift fender extender strapped on with cable ties and gaffer tape (what else is there??) the end result: a slightly drier Beemer pilot and much hilarity. You clearly had to be there. As I,m sure we,ve all got similar tales of crazy things we've done over the years.....cheers. Michael
