I have recently moved house and now have a garage, with all manner of tools and capable of working on 2 bikes in with a load of hard standing space outside and my dads garage is 20 foot away full of all sorts of tools (grinders lathe pillar drills dremals etc) so i am able to offer anybody who is interested a bit of a workshop day on the friday afternoon, by the way my house is 45mins from the campsite,

I have also managed to negotiate trade price on mots (£25) in the local bike mot station for the friday afternoon or saturday morning for anyone who needs one round that time (my brother is the tester) he may also be able to arrange a tidy price on tyres but the best bet is to pm me about them nearer the time.

If there is any interest in this then I will set up another thread to avoid hijacking this one

Great idea Mr Jones. And as I don't have a storm, I can be tea boy!

Nice one Mark. It'll be good to meet you.

I usually head up through Salisbury, Devises, Chippenham so I'm sure we could hook up somewhere on the way :thumbup:

Best put my name on the list too, if you would be so kind, old chap.

edit- POST CHANGED TO AVOID CONFUSION.
Apparently.

I wasn't confused already.

But I'm now not sure.

Perhaps this posting thingy isn't very helpful.
Anyway, if it happens, and I'm there, I'll be coming. Otherwise, not.
Clear?

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

Yay! :clap: :thumbup: Bring your camera mate. An rc8r on green lanes would get a few hits I'm sure!!

Yay! :clap: :thumbup:


Don't worry, I'll work with MJonesy to get a decent route together to include all types of roads excluding green lanes!!
