A few years ago, I visited the Honda Collection Hall in Japan. That was the first time I saw an XRV650 RD03: What a beautiful bike! Seeing that bike inspired me to import and restore my own RD03 here in California. It is a magical bike in my opinion and an important bike in motorcycle...

…what else would you call the days that follow a 24 hour nonstop off road ride up and down the Alps peaks :eek1 ???? Nevertheless, the desire of keep riding the West Italian Alps was too strong to stop us from riding :p3rry. I arranged for my friend Jeff of Colwyn Bay Motorcycles in North...

I've been friends with Lowflyer from Inverness for many years now, we met through Steve T on a run he organized. John happened to be riding an ex Africa Twin of mine! He still owns the bike, a green one. It's heading for the 100k miles now and still going strong. Well, John turned 60 last week...

Thinking if the weather is ok I might bring Debs up to the capital to watch the womens marathon this Sunday on the bike. Got tickets for the Hyde park thingy in the afternoon. I was thinking of parking near the Albert hall and wandering over towards the Mall. Any tips on parking and public...

Earlier in the summer (remember that?) I finally did the "buy an old Honda off ebay" thing and ended up with a CD250 that has been standing for the last 13 years. Got it home (in the back of the Forester!) and finally started to look at what I'd got for my £260.90 Actually, it was in pretty...

A small job was cancelled for Saturday night so about 10:00am my time made a snap decision and told "her indoors" I'm going to London. I booked ferries on line and only when I got to Calais realised I screwed that up, selecting the English version of the site automatically defaulted to leaving...
