Re: Don't buy this helmet,it's shit!
The first one I tried on was too big. The second one too small. But the turd one.......... that's the very one for me.

Re: Ol' Panhead of the Nutcrushers ... !
I was known as Ol' Earl Grey when I was a member of the T100 MC back in the day. Unfortunately I had a big falling out with Ol' Lapsang the club secretary, over a misunderstanding with his then girlfriend Camomile. Things got nasty and eventually PG the club president, had to ask me to leaf.

Re: Thief at large at the Dragon!!!
Happened to me and my mate whilst camping the at European Bike week in Faaker See in 2009. My mate had his camera and phone nicked during the night. Annoying thing is, me and another mate probably saw the culprit virtually in the act, but didn't realise it. My mate who lost his stuff returned back t...

Re: Linked thoughts - adventures too far
Posted a little write up a couple of years back entitled, if memory serves me right 'Calais to Santander via the Alps, the Pyreenes and all the twisty bits in between'. We did exactly that in northern Spain, saw a lane, that became a track, that became a path. You get the picture. Found ourselves in...

Re: Ferry to Spain
I think you'll find Brittany Ferries Santander - Portsmouth - Santander route operates year round. I came back in November last year, and have done several December trips there and back in recent years.

Re: PMSL EBAY… Never a dull moment
Best way to dry damp socks, especially when wild camping. A lot cheaper than buying a pair of sealskinz.

Re: Own up who broke it???
I was going to keep stum as I thought it might have been down to me. The wife's a bit of an IT expert, and she's been back in the UK for a few days, leaving me down here in France to my own devices. Picked her up from the airport yesterday evening, thought I'd cleared all the search history from the...

Re: Spot the obvious mistake ?
I see they've had his top box, panniers and tank bag away already. As someone mentioned earlier, I can see the bollard going next.

Re: Learning French when older - C'est Possible ?
Having spent a fair bit of time in France over the past 6 years or so, mainly over the winters, the big problem is falling straight into the ex pat English speaking community. Easily done and hard to avoid. Many are retire school masters, their subject normally being French. They will tell you that ...
