went out with the intention of a new years eve ride, one bike wouldn't start and the other had bulbs gone - they don't like being left unused for too long. :(

Good bye 2017 and Hello 2018

Happy New year one and all.

Some great memories from 2017.

Trips away with the wife to Bologna, Barcelona, Paris and the South of France.

Being part of the Catalan revolution whilst in Barcelona. :D

Biking trips to the IOM and France/Belgium. Memorable nights in Orleans and Ypres.

Ducati trackday at Silverstone.

Trip to Milan to EICMA.

Staying with the Cookiemonsters and the Ori Monster back in August.

That Saturday evening bike run round the A483 with Kwacky and Itchy back in the summer. No traffic and lots of fun and no restrictions. ;)

Many others i cannot remember.

Onward to 2018 and hopefully loads more memories.

He should've just married a prince instead!!

Did you know.......titles like that are not allowed in the US? Informally yes....but on legal documents, etc. they can't be used.
So every film that Sir Anthony Hopkins etc. does, the credits are done differently to UK releases of the same film.

Happy New Year everyone. Let's hope it's a good one.

Duke, that ride out was ace, even if it did piss it down on the way home and I tried my best to highside the Street :D (facepalm)

Remember: If in Doubt use Full Throttle, It may not make the situation any better, But it will end the suspense...
