So we all rolled up to the Ace for a greasy spoon breakfast and a bit of a natter. :natter

Clive had arrived just after 9 and bagged a Ukgser table but as he bats for both sides (er… is a member of both sites) we let any old Dave Mick and Alan sit with us. ;)

We were cheered to find that MBW had chosen today to launch the all new 2007 R1200GS (lack of) Adventure. Proudly displayed in the old red, crappy yellow, undercoat grey, and sexy-fast blue liveries :thumb

Slimmed down to a lithe 150kg single cylinder and tossing the can bus system into the parts bin this is obviously a machine that means business.

Just what business that is we were unsure of?

Whatever, you can be sure that some dummy somewhere will buy it just for the legendary - or was that infamous - WBM quality.

New member Alan (I think, sorry if I got the name wrong) was exhilarated by Darkhorses witty and engaging conversational skills. :sleep

Clive in full flow. Adventure Mike could just look on in wonder.

Amazing how many hairy arsed bikers came up and tried to chat Clive up – until they realised the t-shirt wasn’t his coming out message :D :ymca

Steptoe turned up and Darkhorse was happy to demonstrate his new racing crouch for the 1200 Adv.

Then Steppers was happy to demonstrate the Pink Way round stance to Judge :ymca :ymca :ymca

Note the old 11**’s are getting pushed out by the vastly more capable and sexy 1200Adv’s :bow

‘Course there’s always one individual who doesn’t follow the crowd – that was Uncle Albert’s excuse and he was sticking to it. :eek: :eek:

are they as capable at going to the shops as well as cafe's - or do they need full luggage and metal panniers for that ? :mmmm
