Hi guys. at the moment the forum is costing more to run then the subs etc are bringing in. Dave is dipping into his own pocket to keep it going and to be honest I don’t think that’s fair. On top of that he’s having to spend a fair bit of time and effort keeping it going. These are some of the...

Ok guys here’s the thing, the forum is slowly dying. There’s a hard core of people who appear but not many. The framework is there, shown by the attendance and enjoyment had at the National. I keep thinking back to the days of XRV and the banter which helped the site grow. What I considered...

i was going to start one of those silly tick tick threads but I don't suppose there's much point now :whistle: Tick

I was in the local MandP's and they had a V85 Guzzi which I must admit I was quite taken by. How did you find it for two up touring? Enough power, room etc.

called into Kickstart Motorcycles in Port Talbot yesterday. They were the local Guzzi dealers bit apparently no longer. They are now official Aprilia and Norton dealers. I have to say, in my humble opinion, the Norton Commando is a sunning looking bike, especially the cafe racer in JPS livery...

I've got a BMW Rallye jacket, which is great. My gripe is by the time I've put my gear in it, phone, wallet etc. it weighs a ton. I'm off on a long bloodbikes run so I've also put a water bladder in it. I'm going to need a weight training course just to lift it. Don't know what the answer is...

Last weekend we went to the local county show. The local Honda dealer was there with a large selection of e bikes, so I just had too didn't I? Really strange. You have to pedal because the electric bit hasn't enough oomph to move you otherwise. With no assistance it's just a normal cycle, it...

I've just had a faceache message saying Rob Fradley had just joined and would I like to send him a message. Spooky......

Im sorry to say that there's a distinct lack of support for an invasion this year for whatever the reason. Because of this I won't be continuing with it this year :(. We've had a really good run which started when Chad and Pete decided to try a long ride to Wales. Sorry guys I'd just like to...

On another thread I asked about next years invasion and what people thought. There were very few replies which makes me wonder if there's still enough interest in a meet up to continue. I know I didn't put dates but only three people responded in a positive manner. I don't mind looking for...

Bit of bad news. Pembrey will only take bookings from armed forces personnel, and unfortunately young Richie has rather selfishly :cool::cool: decided it's time to move onto pastures new. First of all many thanks to him for helping with the arrangements for the last few years it was much...

well I've returned to the dark side

one of those tick tick threads. However the news has been released elsewhere :eek:

It's been some weeks since this years and we all agreed it was an excellent weekend despite the over abundance of Welsh sunshine. Just before we met I put up a thread with the number of people down for attendance and how many we would cater for. There were no replies so after three postings I...

John Surtees: Former F1 world champion dies at 83

Right then, we have 22 attendees. You all know where it is. If you don't see the other thread. Look for Pembrey airfield on a map. Food will be as normal. A soup or similar on Friday, cooked breakfast on Saturday and Sunday and of course the famous Pembrey chilli on Saturday night. It should...

its really quiet in here lately. Did any of the guys make it back from the Christmas meet, are they still there, have they been kidnapped by aliens? Has Debs finally cracked and strangled Pete?:D Just wondered why it's dropped off, come on guys liven the place up. It's boring like this
