Dougie Lampkin tours Goodwood Househttp://link.brightcove.com/servic.../bcpid1529569285?bctid=1612727913Not sure if it'll work for everyone. Works fine for me but one of the guys in the office couldn't see it. Not quite sure how he gets away with it... I get a row if I go in the house with dirty shoes let alone a motorbike

When I first met my hubby he had a bike in the kitchen. It was a brand new proto-type, never been on a track so was more of an exhibit than anything. He assured me it was an "investment" and it certainly sold for lots when I put it on Ebay  
Just another three to go

What all does he have? |

errmmmm ... a blue one, a yellow one ......
Honda RC45, GSXR 1000 and an RGV something as a rebuild project. Any offers? (while he's offshore would be ideal)

Hmmm... all sound nice. I quite fancy a bike (the wife doesn't however ).
The RGV isn't a 250 is it? Mate had one of these years ago and it was a good looking bike. |

I understand the wife's angle, I demand hourly texts when he goes out! No reflection on him but there are far too many idiots on the roads.
Think RGV is prob 250 - I should know this really as it is technically my investment! It is much improved but with more to be done, main problem being it is in storage in Fife (how much worse could that be?!!) It was bought to be a track bike for Knockhill but that's a bit far to go now for a day out. |

Yup, was demonstrated to me first thing this morning when two cars in front of me a truck pulled out and right into the side of the bright green Peugeot spinning it across the road (the truck looked as badly damaged as the car TBH), wouldn't have liked to have seen that happen to a biker. A bike for me would just be a to/from work thing anyway if I was gonna go for one and even then I couldn't use it half the week due to having to pick up two kids... can't see them on the back of any bike when they are 2 and 6(nearly 7)

Bet the kids would love a sidecar I think my beardies would look cool in one

There used to be a guy up elgin/fochabers way who had a biggish dog that wore goggles and used to ride pillion on the bike... was funny to see as he passed you going the other way
