I was there! Great night.

Got all the way down there from Taunton without any mechanical problems and turned up at the gate only for my bike to stall and not start again.

Luckily, it cooled down and got it going again. I parked next to that fool with the 'Chips' replica piece of junk. That was the only way I could get people to look at my bike :(

Handle stressful situations like a dog - If you can't eat it or play with it, pee on it and walk away

hey loris, was that u outside blockbusters the other nite in toytown? ur pillion looked scared! haha
No it wasn't! :lol: No pillion is stupid enough to ride with me. I didn't insure myself to take pillions as they can't be trusted and ruin the ride. Besides, I'd have to alter the suspension and tyre pressures every time. No pillion is worth that. I'm far too upper class and wouldn't dare hang out at Blockbuster! 8)

He did say he was thinking of selling the van..
