THE TRIP OUT 2014 ,ANY TAKERS

[Melch]

Oh, and BTW, I'm also selling bike/s and getting a new one next week. Can we talk about that please as I've not really had the chance to tell world yet that I'm getting a new bike.............

Andres

I can't but help recall you may have let it slip previously but do tell all Andres. Lets have the 'official, cat's out the bag, unabridged' story. This thread is a bit of a free for all anyway. JD is pretty chilled about it. In fact he is so chilled, the lazy fucker doesn't have breakfast until gone 11 'o' clock.

 

[jackassdave]

might as well ask ,what are you getting ? and hows the fuji x100s i looked at one yesterday very confusing menu

 

[peepingtom]

I had a Cortado for breakfast (well, two actually) - it's a 50/50 large espresso/hot milk. Lots of sugar and served in a glass. In Spain a Cortado, glass of water and ciggie is known as a 'Whore's Breakfast'.



Andres

oooh that brings back happy memories of living in the cultural capital of the spain , Tenerife. i always had plenty of cafe cortados con leche leche. which is a 50/50 mix of condensed milk with expresso on the top. lovely stuff always from the same seafront cafe on work days watching the surfing as i stirred…..sigh like an upside down Guinness …. great after a night on the black stuff.

Have I really? Surely not??

Well, I've sold the GS last week and I'm selling the Lemans and T3 outfit...........

I'm picking up the new bike, a KTM1190R on Tuesday.

I'm not allowed to ride it until the two Guzzis are sold

Enough hubris there?

Anyway, thanks for the opportunity to tell all guys, especially JD as I appreciate what a complete headfuck this thread has degenerated into

Still loving it in a "wish I'd got something like this years ago' - it's my perfect camera and a keeper

Did you not go for the Adventure then? Too tall?

Yeah, yeah - the '1190R' is the Adventure but with 21"/18" wheels and lots of orange frame bits.........It is pretty tall but quite a narrow seat and me being 6'(ish) means I can get me feet down no prob (if ever I'm allowed to ride it )

Sorry, yes I misunderstood. The 'R' is the taller one.

I still have Dave's fleece (as worn by him at Le Hog 2013) and borrowed by me before the Cotswold Lovefest.

I could send it to you if you like and you could wear it to surprise him at your date.

Be warned that he will probably apply for a restraining order against you afterwards.

 

[jackassdave]

well least it wasnt left in a campsite in france

Andres

You may have to explain the concept "keeper" to JD...........

 

[jackassdave]

i have yet to decide if its a keeper as im having an airhead moment at present

You are a fucking airhead you mong.

 

[twizzle]

I love the term "Mong" as an insult... It really is my favourite........

I've been double booked, sorry JD I won't be going.

I'm afraid I'm out as well. Work, work, busy, busy sadly.

I rather suspect that would be one of his more "specialised" clients..................

Funnily enough I am going to be popping into my 'specialist client' this evening whilst on my way to a mates house for a convivial evening. Apparently she has staining and a leakage issue she would like me to look at.
