    email me: gingerbloke at gmail dot com - I'm just the other side of M1
    Junction 12 and there's my bike trailer in the garden with nothing to
    do.

    In the old days you'd have mentioned a rusty mangle as well, but you just
    don't get the number of mangles you used to. Probably a mismanglement issue.

    Is it next to a SOC up on blocks, a burnt-out washing machine and a soiled
    mattress?

    In addition to Pip's I also have a trailer you can borrow.

    I was hoping that while he's down South Pip is teaching the natives the art
    of Geordie landscape gardening, commonly known as Fang Hoyit Oottawinda.

    I've got a decent bike trailer in SW London. It coped with Robbo's 1500
    Wing, so it can cope with anything.

    I've got one here in Saffron Walden. It can take 3 bikes if needed. It has
    handled 2 Harleys at once! and mine weighs in around 350+ Kg. Max AUW is
    750Kg.

    Let me know if you wanna borrow.

    Like buses. You can never get one when you want it. Then... 3 at once ;o)

    Well, it would need to really, wouldn't it? No self-respecting Harley
    owning household is without a trailer.

  14. That statement reminds me of a slogan I saw on a T-Shirt at this year's
    NEC.

    In the same shape and colours as the Harley Dadvison logo, it said
    "Hardley Fucking Movingson"

    *Class*

    The only one that was better imo was the one that said "Nice legs, what
    time do they open?"

  15. Hey, Daz. I'll be in your neck of the woods at the weekend. Any chance
    of a borrow of a drill[1] and a couple of bits of around 3mm-4mm?

    [1] As long as I'm on the bike

    Don't see a problem with that. Best gimme a call though as I'm out Sat
    evening (dinner with the boss!?) but should be around most other times.

    See ya then.

  17. I've got a bit of kitchen work on Saturday night. It depends where the
    venue is and if it's walkable. If it is I'll be taking the bike.
    I might see you before if the dinner you're having is in the place I'm
    working at for the night.

  18. What was that for?

    Not that I really care you understand, or are you just adding posts for
    the sake of it to bump your monthly score up?

    Dinner is in Braintree.
    When do you need the drill etc? Perhaps we could meet during the day if you
    need it urgently?

  20. Not me then.
    Anytime over the weekend that we're both free. I need to drill some
    small holes in my new handlebars to stop the switches twisting round the
    bar when I use the lights, throttle, choke etc.
