Re: The Honda Africa twin 1000 , warts and all.

God that dash is horrible.....1970's sic-fi.

Great idea posting the photos on here, might get a few to come over for it.

Nice bike you have there.

Re: Vernal Bike Weekend

Nice video, a lot of it close by my house.

Going to look at that passage tomb tomorrow. Must have passed that 100's of times and didn't see if or know it was there.

Re: I am thinking about buying a caravan!

Interesting thread. We recently sold a small motorhome and replace with a hymer caravan. I haven't worked out how the bike will fit in the setup.

Re: Diesel Car Fuel Economy.

66/72 from an Audi A4 2.0 tdi. There's 49 people on spritmonitor.de say you are not very good at maths.

Their best is 55 and the average is 41.2.

These threads normally have more rubbish in them than a council tip.
