Too big, too expensive and full of unnecessary gadgetry.

And.... 'yes' is my answer. There's nothing more ridiculous than a smallish old codger perched sky-high on a massive bike fully attired in twat gear. Well, maybe a petite woman in massive shades driving a massive 4x4, peering through the steering wheel 🤣

👍XJROC AGM.... the last I went to was in 2005 at Squires Cafe. I'm glad the club is still going (strong??), I had some great times and made some great friendships. Maybe I should rejoin, having been only a 'registered user' for a long while 🙂

Was it at Baskerville Hall, a mile or two from Hay?
