Another day, another chance to browse some very nice machinery….
Bimota steering fun…
Met Nathan Millward: he took a little postman’s bike from Australia to UK. The little postie was livid! Nice lad – this was about 9.15am so we had time for a good chat. Bought his books – the reviews are excellent..
Green & mean
BMWs best looking bike bar none (IMHO)
CCM kindly lowered their 450GP Adventure bike for me and other short-arses: they now offer 4 seat heights. Test ride chalked in for next year in Bolton. Lighter than a lot of 250s at 125kg this could be the perfect solo adventurer (not ideal with a pillion plus her luggage… : ) for non-tarmac routes.
Nice trumpet
Radar, what’s this one?
Bit of a skinny front wheel…
but the back tyre looks nice.
The specials are something else – my closet Back Street Hero alter ego loves this show!
The Spectre Norton, anyone?
Hmmmmm….
Less violent Norton.
Our TT 2015 mate Ol working hard, as usual. Some people never relax….
Nice….
The Millyard Viper, an 8-litre 10-cylinder moped chucking out 500hp. Started it up: sounded very calm compared to last year’s magnificent H2R but the back-fires after each throttle blip were certainly impressive….
Thought you’d like to see Steve Parrish in action….Well, it was another really good year: I bought books & DVDs; Jed got some strange Korean salt-powered re-usable heat pouches. I look forward to his review….

Had my paparazzi hat on – this was a snatched photo at long range with a small camera: Ol was working so hard that he created a local heat haze that steamed up the lens….

Ol was certainly working it…
