    That stuff about God Allah and Budha set me thinking:

    Here is what I think a few famous people might ride:

    Yoda from Star Wars: Honda Monkey Bike, but the power of “The Force” would mean it was quicker than a Fireblade…

    Darth Vader: Has to be a Yamaha V-Max!!

    Captain Kirk: Tough one, maybe a Yamaha XJ650 Turbo?

    Lister from Red Dwarf: Ratty Kawasaki Z650 with a seriously lound Alpha 4 into 1. No MOT or tax.

    Rimmer (also from Red Dwarf): Tomos A3K – remember in the mid 1980’s when you could buy these from Woolworths!!

    Osama Bin Laden: Suzuki DRZ400, good off road and on. His must be fitted with a cloaking device as nobody can find him! Wonder if he has got Saddam on the back?

    Fiedel Castro (Cuban leader) : See him on a Moto Guzzi leMans I for some reason.

    Few people I am struggling with, what do you lot reckon this lot might ride:

    Noddy Holder from 70’s rock band Slade
    Jimi Hendrix
    Charlie Chaplin
    Buster Keaton
    Spock
    Blake from Blake’s 7
    Buck Rogers (Altough I think the 25th Century one would go for a Suzuki RF900).
    Flash Gordon
    Mother Teresa of Calcultta
    Gadaffi of Libya.
    Doctor Who.

    I do like to address important issues of the day!
    I am looking forward to some good answers here.

    If this lot were all bikers imagine them turning up for a club meeting or a Rally! Surreal or what?

    Ah yes, the Tomos bikes from Woolies. I remember them with no affection whatsoever. Horrible little things.

    Jimi Hendrix would have a bike engined Lotus Seven replica because it’s got 2 Fenders.

    Oh well, if they’re telling us what they ride now, didn’t Neil Armstrong say “One small step-thru for man”?

    And wasn’t it Admiral Nelson who said “Kiss me R.D.”?
