    Were you thinking of touring Europe yourself ses? The nearest I got were bike rallies that took in France, Belgium, Holland and Germany in the early 80’s with Shatterford Motorcycle Club near Kidderminster.

    [:p]Actually they were Braun Butane Curling Tongs back then, but I forgot to pack them for that rally[:p]Don’t quote me on that I’m only joking, honest. The chap to my left with the RD350 T-Shirt is my brother, Mark, currently he’s riding an ’04 Ducati Monster, which I’ve yet to try, but MAY shortly be getting something thats fast tourer/ sports/hyper sports.

    Thanks for the info on Paul, I did wonder why I hadn’t seen him for a few years. Yes I did know that Shatterford MCC lives on, I did go round to The King Billy for a few pints and a chat about 4-5 years back.
