    Welcome in to the Land of Make Believe:eek: ... not to be confused with Land of Nod - that's just outside of Holme on Spalding Moor and is completely different.:oops:
    If we're not careful, we may have to have a bacon butty party:) at Seaways (Fridaythorpe) come spring time!:cool::D

    Some fantastic roads round your neck of the woods. Spend most of my rides round there.

    And of course the top box is handy to stow the shopping when you take SWMBO out Saturday morning before the match. Good thinking mate.

    Hello Dozers Dad,

    would you pls explain the pattern?
    The only vertical challenge to BMW owners I know around HERE, is the Passo di Stelvio :D

    And if Frodo had had a GS to cross into Mordor, Tolkien wouldn't have needed to write 3 books. A short story at best! (skip all the walking...!)

    Oh, and just to clarify: the only German machine I ever owned, was a Triumph!
    (a typewriter...;))
